how to clean a cartomiser help.

Hi I just received an IB tank 19mm XL eventually can the cartos be cleaned?? I saw videos about boiling them for 5 minutes is it true??
or do you recommend another method?? Thanks in advance.

I recommend just pitching them in the trash. They will never be good as new after cleaning.

I spent $5 - 6 a day on cigarettes when I smoked. A $2 cartomizer should last you 1 - 3 weeks. I feel no remorse throwing a spent carto away.

If they arent burnt tasting you boil them 15 min at a time until the juice is out of them - just search on you tube for it. Phil Busairdo (sp) has a really good vid.

I understand completely and feel the same way but I was curios to see if there was a way to expand their life span.

I've boiled mine and after a few days' drying they seem fine.....EXCEPT it seems you can never fully get the taste of the old juice out of them. That's one reason I prefer clearos, but a cart is great for trying a new juice that you don't know if you're going to like. I've tried one or two that were so nasty I never could get them palatable again, and wound up throwing them out anyway. But in general you can get at least another week or so out of them by boiling.

Just like Baditude said , Just throw them out . The way to extend the life of a carto is always keep it juiced.
