how should i store my ecig when not in use?

[smokiedabear]

should i take out the cartridge between uses, or when im done for the day? this seems to cause some drippage of lost juice whenever i pull it out, but i dont want to risk effing up my atomizer.

i'm also curious about this, so far I have been leaving the cartridge in, but disconnecting the battery and atomizer in order to prevent the self cleaning cycle from happening

I've found that the cart filling does a better job of holding the juice in than it seems. When storing my e-cig, I just disconnect the battery and store the cart atomizer-side down. This keeps the atomizer moist, but also won't leak. I've found that if you keep the cart cart-side down the atomizer will drain into the space between the bridge and the cart and will decrease performance.

At night before you go to bed, take the cartridge out off the atomizer and put the atomizer upside down on a paper towel.
I put a paper towel in a small glass, and put the atomizer in there.
It drains the liquid.

the self cleaning cycle wont just happen automatically...it'll happen directly after a puff...its triggered by you puffing on it a certain amount of times...it wont self clean spontaneously...so you dont need to disconnect anything to avoid it...

as for removing cartridges...well,i only remove them to drip more liquid on them,and i dont ever do the upside down draining thing anymore...i used to,but stopped months ago...it hasnt made the slightest bit of difference to my atomisers performance or life expectancy...in my opinion,doing that is a waste of eliquid and time...if it gets blocked occasionally,then blow it out as required...much less hassle...
