It works

[gelstyles]

Hi Angel here again. Id just like to say that the e cig wors for quitting smoking. I dont even have the urge to smoke now that I vape. When my atomisers break I have to switch to gum while I order new ones but yeah it really works.
As long as I am here, I got a question. I keep breaking my atomisers. I dont use much eliquid and they fry out a guy said. I tried using more liquid but I still have the same problem. I got a dse 901 and first I filled the cartridges at the top.. then I removed the foam and put liquid in then put the foam back in and yeah Im confused what is the best way?
How do I make an atomiser last? Can I put liquid straight on the atomiser or does this ruin it?

Yes it does work sorry to hear you are having trouble with atty though.
I have a 901 but use my 510 the most. The drip method can be used on the atty but you need to watch if you have a auto battery something of it backing up into the battery. Not sure if it does it on the manual battery. I`d also check on the blue foam mod so you can get better fluid flow to the atty. Amazing what that will do.
If you do have a manual battery wonder if you are holding it on to long. To me that might fry a atty. Sure someone with more knowledge will be by with better info. Good luck and a smoke free New Year.

a few things... if you ever get the chance to take one apart, youil c that there is a SMALL coil. that coil reaches temps high enough to boil your E_LIQUID. this coil is nearly as thin at the standard human hair.
so..
by dropping the atty on a hard surface could break the coil. other things include when attempting to clean the atty with water, this will QUICKLY educe rusting of the coil faster than eliquid. and by that i mean oxidizes the metal faster. so try to keep the atty on a strict e-liquid diet. just remember that it is a small coil that can break easily so ... ya good luck

That's called "dripping", and that's the way a lot of people do it (myself included). Make sure you let the atomizer cool off before you drip cold liquid on it, so thermal shock doesn't break the thin little nichrome wire heating element.

I use a cleaning regiment of hot water for a min or 2, then a rubbing alchohol bath for 2 min or so, then run it through hot water again for a min or 2 then let it out to dry... is this bad for my atomizer? If so then what is better for it? Is there a cleaning method that wont oxidize or rust my atty?

I don't clean them much at all, except to occasionally blow them out after I've accidentally flooded them. Here's the way Kent C does it:

Makes sense to me.
