Sucralose ruining atty's

[ledouxmike]

Sucralose is killing my atty's. I've been having problems ruining atty's and I couldn't figure it out until I narrowed it down to the sucralose. Has anyone else had this problem. I'm killing them in about 2 days. I heard that sweeteners were bad for atty's but this is ridiculous.

I thought all juice had sweetener in it. At least they all taste super sweet when I have gotten them in my mouth.

I mix all my stuff with lots of sweetener and I haven't had this problem.. My current atty is going strong at 10 days old.

Me too and I think lots of sweetener is what makes some juice so good. My atomizers have been fine so far.

What else could be my problem. I'm using 80/20 PG/VG Boston Cream Pie from TV with sweetener added, which is sucralose.

do drip or use cartos.. I've learned the hard way that dripping too much can gunk up my atty very fast. Do you leave drips unattended in your atty? That means if you drip 3 drops.. vape it all before you leave it. Do you sit your atty out to drain at night (on a paper towel)? That helps too. Do you give your atty a good blowing out every day?

All of the above and also flooding it too much and running it too dry will kill an atty.

Thanks guys. Killed a couple cartos as well. I think it's something in the juice. How bad is sucralose Compared to real sugars? I'll be making my own juice so I don't want anything in there that will shorten the life of my atty's and cartos.

Nope, but it can taste that way. I rarely use any sweetener in my own mixes -- but most of them taste sweet. It's the pg. Taste it -- it's quite sweet all by itself.

We all pretty much use sweeteners. If you're sure it's the sweetener that you're using just leave it out and see how it works

I will as soon as my DIY stuff comes in.

I'm thinking it is one particular flavor juice that is causing me problems. I am using other juice I have to see if that is the problem.
