Smileomizerz, who's cleaned them?

[Whistles]

Thinking of trying to clean one of these... I usually use a modified turkey baster method...

Think it will work on these?

Well when I get about 6 months of carts piled up I usually soak them in a big bowl of 70% rubbing alcohol for several days agitating them a little,then soak them in some water for a day then blow them out and let sit to they are bone dry.

I've cleaned a many mega xxl ego that are as big as smileomiser's that came back well so sure these would work too.You have to have patience my way but I always have enough hardware on hand to not be in a rush.There are dozen's of ways to clean them as u probably already know this works for me.....

Have cleaned many a smileo Whistles sir. Easiest way is a high abv soak (suggest everclear if you can get it) for 24-36 hours depending on the juice used in it, followed by a water flush, then let dry or reverse taryn spin....

Question Morandir: After cleaning, do you notice any drop-off in performance of the smileomizer?

Ok so I cleaned two of mine used the ever-clear method mentioned by Morandir but didn't let them soak for more the 4 hours. I cant help it im impatient didn't do any water flush just let them air dry for a few days. First try ok so there not brand new but they took juice really well but my draw seemed clogged. I killed one smilo already pushing something to big through it. Today I used a small long paper clip and using a drilling motion I gently pushed it through and got allot of black gunk out man they hit like new again So moral of the story maybe let them soak longer not sure about the water flush these are hard to dry out and use small paperclip to clean center hole. I dont get the crackle and sizzle my new smilos give but they do work really nicely.

Thanks Morandir sir. Will go with the soak method

Depends on how many times it's been cleaned Ms. Katz. Around the 5th or 6th with new menthol wow the coil starts to break down. Once that happens no amount of cleaning will bring it back.

why bother cleaning most seem to be getting a month of vapeing out of a smileomizer and at 7.50 each that seems to be a grate deal why not just use new ones

 

[katz-in-boots]

Not all of us get a month. A couple of weeks seems about my average.

Rather than throwing away the whole metal casing it would be cool if you could just replace the guts. Seems like such a waste otherwise. Given the size of these things by the end of a year I could be in profit by cashing in on the scrap metal.
