Would it also be damaging to low resistance atomizers if they go dry?
If an atomizer gets too hot, the coil can pop, breaking the atomizer.
This is more likely to happen with LR atomizers or with higher voltage
vaping.
And if you let an LR atomizer run dry, it is going to get even hotter, and could therefore pop more easily.
On the other hand, dry burns, which is essentially running an atomizer dry on purpose, is a very good way to clean them.
But if using an LR atomizer or high voltage you have to watch the coil closely and not let it get too hot or it could pop.
Another reason to not let an atomizer run dry is that you can possibly bake some of the
juice in the mesh that surrounds the coil.
That can lead to airflow restrictions, and/or a burnt taste that you might not be able to get rid of.
That is why you have to rinse out an atomizer before doing a dry burn, to make sure there is no
juice left in the mesh.
