Hey guys. So I got my leo today, and I love it so far. Baby hits like a champ compared to my 401. I'm using blue foam in the carts and its like a gift that keeps on giving :). So nice to not have to fill a cart after 20 draws or so. I love the amount of juice this thing holds.

I want to refer to this thread. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/ask-veterans/141558-leo-maintenance-cleaning.html

I know with my 401, that if I didn't wash out and clean my atomizers after using certain juices, the taste and smell would linger after switching to another flavor. Its mentioned in the above thread to not wash them out. I would like to know if anyone has cleaned their leo attys in such a way or if there is another way to clear out the old flavor. Only blowing my 401's did not accomplish this. Thanks to anyone that can help with some advice.

Oh, and merry christmas guys!

Every few days, I soak my Leo attys in 91% isopropyl alcohol, wash them out in hot water, then let them dry for at least 8 hours. I then shake them and blow them to get any excess water out. Put a couple drops of ejuice on the bridge, burn it about 10 times, add a few more drops, then proceed from there. It has worked fine for me - I have cleaned 1 atty this way at least 4 times, and it still works fine. That's my experience - others may have different experiences. Good luck!

I don't clean out the Leo atomizer. I just blow through it into a paper towel, wipe it off, and switch flavors. There might be a few puffs of mixed flavor, but I just deal with that. If they aren't flavors that would mix well, you could rinse in really hot water before blowing through.
yes this works i would say to try it UNLESS you are smoking a menthol type flavor in which case that will linger for a whole lot longe. most people including me who use menthol type flavors designate one atty just for those but if you arent using minty stuff then you should be ok to just blow them out and fill and VAPE AWAY

The recommendations already given are all good and should work out great for you. I would just recommend you get at *least* one or two more backup atty's. All atty's are not created equal and sometimes you get one that just doesn't last as long as you think it should. Or something happens and it fries, or ... well, there's a lot of things that *could* go wrong. With only one atty at your disposal, you're taking a big chance (IMO).

I agree. I hate not having any backups, but I wanted to make sure I liked the Leo before really investing in it. Does anyone know if its okay to leave it charging overnight? Will it be damaged for leaving it on too long?

Vape production way down after 1 week going to have to do some cleaning method as blowing through it is not enough

Haha thanks that little trick worked like a charm! I've been on my very first leo atty for 3 months now and I thought i had finally killed it but the iso and water brought it back to life! Thanks again
