Resurrectors....stainless or clear?

[bigpman]

I was going to place an order for some stainless resurrectors from CCV and noticed that they also come in clear. Has anyone got anything to say about the stainless vs the clear? Any benefits from one to the other? Does the clear help you see the juice level at all? Help you notice if the carto gets scrotched, etc? I appreciate the input

No one has had experience with both?

I've just ordered the stainless ones.. The main reason I got them is because I have a silver version of the ego batts and also ordered a silver drip tip. But when I comes time to clean them I'm going to boil them in water for 5 minutes. (saw a vid on youtube) not sure if that will be safe w/ the clear. As far as fill level I just pop my drip tip off and see if the batting is wet at all, if not.. I top off. But with their prices and free shipping, order both! Hope this helps.

have not used the clear, but saw a vid (grimmgreen?) that the clear is slightly thicker and won't fit under an ego cone. Not sure if that is a biggie for you or not.

Thanks to you both. The cone is an issue I am having with my Fluxos, I was planning on modding my cone to make them fit and order one more for the resurrectors. Didn't think of the cleaning, although currently I just let mine sit in 91% IPA overnight and it seems to do the trick pretty well. The poly fill comes out nice and clean and I let them dry off for 24 hours before use. At the price, maybe I will just order a box of each.

That's a good enough reason to stick with the stainless for me. Thanks Link!

ivd had cracking with the clear ones also, thought the stainless tasted like metal, and wound up settleing for black, they were fine when i didnt know any differnt ,however i dont use any of these now, much prefer" Ultimate CE2'2 XL" fromThe Electronic Cigarette Super Store | myvaporstore.com better hit , cleaner to fill, last longer, easy to clean, I could on and on....

If the juice can cause the plastic ones to crack, doesn't anyone wonder what is being dissolved into the juice?

Yes, but there are a few things that make sense. for example, anything acidic like Orange extract can wear down plastics. Doesn't mean that it's bad for us though..
