If the atty wick is comming out of the bridge is that ok?

[SeanJJ]

Hey everyone i was just cleaning my attys and i noticed that you are no suppose to run them under the running water but suppose to just let them soak foolish me anyways i saw on one of my attys that the 3 little string wicks are coming out of the side of the bridge.. Is this ok? will it affect anything? But on my other atty they are still inside of it. Does this change how the atty will work?

I haven't vaped in about a year i just brought out the box the other day and i just order some liquids from backwoods which should be here tomorrow then i ordered a USB passthrough with no inline for higher volts also a new atty and battery along with a dripper tip which are all stainless steal which should look pretty sweet and o yea now im broke

But anyways is there anything you guys can help me with on maintenance? I haven't vaped in along time and forgot like everything. All i do remember to do is clean the attys every now and then and i guess i was even doing that wrong .

Thanks everyone and thanks for taking the time to reading this wicked long message to help me out

IMO there's really no need for atty rinsing/cleaning. I've lost a bunch of atomizers following the cleaning brigade. My atties now usually last 4-6 weeks each, no switching or swapping... & run hard everyday.
If your atty was in use then stored for a year-- I say get some new ones. But money is tight so I say vape those suckers till they vape no more... then go get some LR atties to try.
Personally I wouldn't pay over $7~each for an atty. Deals are everywhere-- a lot has changed from a year ago (I'm sure you noticed).

Oh, & welcome back to vaping!
