How to judge a dead atomizer

[Xanth]

Possibly my worst nightmare.

Took a drag, light was on, no bubbling sound, no vape at all.

Is it dead? I changed to my next atomizer, lots of vape but no hit on throat.

EDIT: I forgot to add, i tried crazy dragging on the dead atomizer and realise there is still heat. Is there still a chance?

did u let it rest for a while ?

atomiser need to cool down .....

you need to blow it out...
take off the battery,and blow the atomiser from the battery end a few times,with sharp breaths..
then drip a few drops of liquid from a cartridge directly onto the atomiser.
then try it.

how do i squeeze the liquid from the cart?

put it in a syringe but you properly don't have one of these so you may have to just squeeze it with your fingers wash hands after.
couple of drops straight on the atomizer should prime it nicely.

If it still heats up, there's hope. Thorough cleaning (read, blow like crazy through the battery end) usually does it for me...

I've only had one atomizer die on me so I dont have as much experience as most here, I am a lighter smoker. But the atomizer that did die on me, it would still produce a bit of heat, but even after a good cleaning and what not, it would not produce any vapor no matter what I did.. then a few days later it stopped producing heat, and was officailly gone.

It's not working, Smokester will be sending me a replacement. Damn, i love this guy. I'm so glad that i decided to buy an extra atomizer at the beginning.

I'll be ordering a few more atomizer soon since my friend has decided to start e-smoking after seeing me stop buying cigarettes. I'll ship my stuffs with his and have him pay the shipping.

I have tried blowing through the atomizer and it still produces very very little smoke. So little that I have to strain just to see the smoke. Would cleaning it in hot water work better? What is the best procedure without getting an ultrasonic cleaner? I don't have any liquid yet, so dripping is not a solution, although I am going to try and buy some tonight if anyone can suggest the best e-liquid and which kind produces the best smoke. Did I just get a crappy atomizer? I have watched all videos about the mini ds103 and I have never gotten anywhere near as much somke from mine as any videos i have seen. Any thoughs or help?

warm soapy water, rinse out, blow it through, then dry it with a hairdryer (don't let it drip dry). After this, put a drop or two on the atomiser because you don't want to fire it up dry. That's your best hope.

By the way, I have a u-sonic cleaner and it has been no good at all. (Great for loads of other stuff though).
