Hello Bob and Welcome. Sorry, but what do you mean by "make sure they last?" Truthfully, I didn't do anything special when I got mine. I just charged all my batty's, blew out the atomizers, and I just use one atomizer per liquid flavor. My 510 is running great, vapor and TH is pretty good. Hope you enjoy yours as well!

Do you mean not burning the attys up? I too am kind of wary of this, interested to hear a little tips.

After reading everything I could get my hands on here, and now using my 510 for about a month, I've come to the conclusion that there is no way to predict the life span of an atomizer.
I'm still using my originals, plus a couple of the back-ups I ordered. I now consider them "disposable" - if one dies, I'll always make sure I have plenty of back-ups to rely on.
The cost of an atomizer is minimal, especially when I compare it to the cost of a pack of cigarettes. $8.00+ for a pack of cigs - and checking around for reputable suppliers I see atomizers selling for less than the cost of one pack of smokes - so...
That said - I've found that by not letting my atomizers run dry (keeping my cartridges topped off with e-juice), blowing them out gently if I happen to flood it (flooding happens, it's nothing to worry about) and not "fussing" too much with them , I'm getting good performance and life out of them.
As far as doing anything to make them last when you first receive it - see above.
Gently blow the primer fluid out of the atty before using it - don't run it "dry" (aside from not being good for the atty, it tastes awful) - and just enjoy vaping!
Good Luck!

I rarely kill amotizers - I have many that I got back in August. I go through batteries and USB passthroughs more than anything! Keep it wet and clean it gently if it starts to get sluggish (hard drag.) I use a Polident soak.
