Penelope Cleaning Advice

[Pablito]

Hey all,

So after about 2 hours of blood, sweat, and a lot of swearting, I managed to get my Penelope built and finctioning all good and I do love it sooo much, seems to provide a wonderfully smooth vape.

Being this, I have quickly gone through my first batch of juice in it and need to refill it. Thing is I want to change flavors of juice.

And given that I spent so long building it, I am scared of starting me mess with it and it not being the same again.

Does anyone have some advice on how to best clean the Penelope? Which parts should I remove, or is it none? I've been reading that PGV is great, but at a pinch warm water works to.

Any and all idea are most welcome and appreciated, thanks!

Pablito, if you'll go to the thread above and ask the same question, I'm betting you can find an answer. You're in the new members forum, and most of these people haven't gone that far into vaping yet. Good luck. Sorry I can't answer your question myself.

Just rinse it out with some vodka , shake out the excess liquid , and put in your new juice . Alcohol evaporates , fairly quickly , so no need to wait for days or even hours to use again . I refill mine and use right away . No issues what so ever . And you will get better at making coils and wicks . Took me awhile to get the hang of it . And you don't have to wait till your present coil goes bad , practice making a new one now , and just save it for when you need a new coil . Go to Youtube and put in Penelope , there is a guy from England ( Scott ) that has an excellent video on making wicks for Penelope's Good Luck

You also need to keep in mind that it's a rebuildable atomizer. It's not an everlasting atomizer. You are going to have to rebuild it fairly soon anyway. Hopefully you have the supplies to do that.

Renzuli - Thanks for all of that, do you advise that i Simply take my whole unit, unscrewed from my PV mod and rinse the whole thing in the alcohol, or are there only certain parts I should be cleaning and unassembling?

Mickey - yep, yep, all aware of those things and despite my grumbling, I am actually enjoying the whole rebuilding process, just need to get more attys to work on

Thanks much to both of you for the advice!

The main part to clean is the coil /wick , and the tank itself , so just disasemble (leaving the coil intact . and rinse out . But Mickey is right , you need to get some wick , and wire to build some coils . If that is all your vaping , it probably won't last more than a few weeks , at best . An d even if it doesn't burnout , it will get crusted with burnt juice , and there will be little if any flavor . Good Luck .
