Rotation of attys

[Fitdiculous]

Been vaping for about 2 weeks now and love it. Have been mainly using my 510 LR atty dripping and my eGo mega atty/cart while driving. I do have a spare LR atty (new) and a spare 510 atty and eGo Mega atty on order. Just wondering if it's better to use one till it's completely dead, and keep the spares around, or do you rotate them? ie. use one for 1 week, and the other for the next week etc....

I use one for tobacco flavours,one for fruit and one for coffee flavours.

Use till dead. (which in my case still has to happen. Only been drippin for a week.)

Thats just me though..lol

I think that's really just up to you...however you roll. I tend to rotate about 3 at a time....and I rotate about 3-4 batteries at a time, too. BUT....I have a stash of new attys and batteries that I'm "saving" to replace these three I'm using all the time. I don't know if there's any good logic behind either way....just the way I do things. I, like you, have an LR atty on my passthru for dripping; my mega 510 atty/cart on my eGo for regular....and the eGo mega cart/atty (WOW) for driving. I'll admit I have too much stuff!!! Bring on the ban....I'm set for about 2 years! Ha.

Ya, I really don't know if there is a specific "formula" that works better than others since attys have variable lifespans anyways. I've only started cleaning them now and they work like brand new. Just don't want to get too many into the rotation if I don't have to.

I like lots of different flavors and really don't like to have them mixed. So I rotate my attys with my flavors. If I want to switch flavors I just have to attach the atty/cart and maybe top off a little.

I find this easy for me and I can even switch while driving if needed.

I have 8 attys, and I rotate them constantly. At least once sometimes twice a day.

I've been using the same 510 atty for a couple of months and the same 801 atty for about a month. I only clean them if they start getting clogged or off tasting. I just let them drain at night if I remember to.

do you mark them? if not, the only problem I see with this is you don't exactly know how long each last (if you wanted to keep track). I've only purchased my hardware from one vendor thus far and only have 3 attys so it's not that hard to keep track

just when/if I start purchasing from others it would be good to know at least for rotational purposes

I do daily but only because I have my home mod and my to-go. I drip so when I do make the switch, I leave the arch on the atty pointed down.

When the atty gets to the point of not working right, I clean.
Some here will have a nightmare with this, but I just throw the attys in some vodka and forget about it for days. I use the RN4081 and DSE102 and it doesn't seem to hurt either of them.

I used to rotate atomizers a long time ago, but there really is no need to do so.

Just use this cleaning method as needed and use it until dead...

I saw those links and tried the dry burn last night and it worked well with my eGo mega atty! I'll see how long the pair of attys I have now last and go from there I guess

Pretty much the same here. I use one atty for menthol and one for cherry and coke flavors. One has died on me date, so I swapped in a new one, but otherwise I am not rotating them. The menthol one has been going fine for about a month but seems to be a little gunked up, so I may clean that one and put it right back into action.
