Lightly used carto's?

[mekks082]

What do you guys do with carto's that got little to no use? Wash them out and reuse with another flavor?

I have a few sitting around that where used for less than a tank and dumped do to crappy juice flavor (not the carto's fault).

Depends on the carto........ haven't had too much success with the Boge (vertical coil) but with the Kanger and other horizontal cartos, it is easy to pull out the polyfill and dry burn the coil exactly like an atomizer.

I've got Kanger 808's and 510's that are going on 1 month of daily use cleaning once a week. No boiling needed. Just rinse polyfill, blot dry and then reinstall using the coffee stirrer trick. I've switched to Kanger 510 LR exclusively due to this...............

Never thought about recycling cartos.

Interesting method. Will try it some time.

I have tried cleaning by soaking in alcohol for weeks, then boiling (multiple times), flushing with a syringe, and allowing to dry. Works "ok", but never like new for me. To me it is too much effort for something that is fairly cheap, and I am a cheapskate...

Sorry, just re-read the initial post. Never had any that I barely used..... All were used for at least a solid week, mots were used closer to 2 weeks.
