I wouldn't bother with cleaning them they never preform like a new one and the flavor is really off.

I agree. It's not that I wouldn't like to save money but they just aren't as good. I like to get some pleasure out of vaping and nothing is better than a nice fresh carto.

I have never used the LRs, however. I vape at higher voltages on standard resistance cartos.

I use the 3 ohm ones but at higher voltage. It boils down to wattage and an LR at 3.7V is the same as an SR at ~5V.

Cheapest place I've found Boge cartomizers is Greenhouse One. I buy in bulk to offset the shipping. I use china airmail which usually takes 3 weeks to get to the states.

I've also been buying mine in bulk with China direct orders. Amazingly inexpensive that way, but you pay your nickel and take your chances with China shipping. They're so cheap, I don't really care how fast I go through them.

After vowing to never go back to filler cartos I was given a 2ohm Boge to try. I was impressed but only had one. It did have a 'nail polish' smell that I remember from days of old, so I let it air dry before filling. I think it's due to manufacturing and sealing that odor in. After that no problem. Good clean hits.

Do they make these in XL sizes?

Thanks for yet another great video. You're lessons are perfect for us noobs getting into vaping!
I found this to very effective ONCE...on the second try, the taste and longevity fell off pretty dramatically so, now I clean once and then toss...that gives me 2wk+- on a buck 50 carto.........

I use a large syringe, at the end I use a rubber band to hold on one of the condoms from a carto, this creates a seal to the carto (read you can use pencil grip too)...I use water heated in microwave to flush out the cartos, push out excess water by plunging air through several times...then I dry in a toaster oven, 250 for about an hour. When draw is too tight, I pitch..

I DIY..will use attys to test, but sometimes you have to test on cartos..hate getting a new one out, so I use washed ones for testing juices. I have some that have been washed 5-6 maybe more times no problem..though it's possible they weren't actually used very long between washes. I just know I keep seeing the same logo'd one that I swear has been reused for months!

And if you get tired of refilling them every couple of hours, you can always make a tank for them like in my far right picture of my avatar. I made that for my boge 3.0 ohm HR cartos. Same size as the LR cartos though. They work great in the tank and vape very well.

Do they make these in XL sizes?
Don't need XL with a tank ;)
