Good to know. I think I tried boge once upon a time. Of course my battery was 3.2 and I didn't like it. Allot of people still use them. I am going to get my tank out of retirement if I cannot get the 5ml carto clean. I have to change up cartos every once in awhile. Ce2s are cheap too. I only like them in a tank.

Goodnight Techno, I am running off to Facebook to talk to my brother....see you tomorrow. :)

Cleaning cartos, meh. Toss and go for the win, nowadays.

When I did clean cartos, I used a 60 cc Catheter tip syringe for power washing -put a pencil gripper on the end and the carto on the other - flush with hot water until clear. Then use the same syringe and blow dry it with just air. Bake the cartos at 170 for an hour and leave in the turned-off but warm oven overnight. Good to go in the morning.

I found it faster with the larger volume. I maybe even have a pic of the setup somewhere - I will look and see.

Morning Pokey and all BFF: It feels good to have a good night's rest! Now I am ready for the day..in which washing windows is my priority. 70 degrees today, our last warm day for awhile so got to get off my large dimpled tush and do some outside things. I thought all of our days were cloudy this fall, then I realized it was my windows not allowing sunshine in. The ones on the front porch are especially nasty.....the spiders build webs in the porch ceiling and then their bug drippings--bug guts and blood--run down the window glass. (Hope I did not ruin anyone's breakfast with that)

Thanks for the happy coffee, Pokey. Good Thursday wishes for you all.....pray TT had a good night.

Good morning! Just made coffee. Excellent idea. Its strange I have a 60cc syringe down in the basement. The cart I want to clean is the size of a battery. Thanks for the ideas. If it was a regular or mega I would just toss. This one holds 5mls. I am just curious if it can be cleaned effectively. I had a echo cart that didn't last too long. I tossed it. I wasn't impressed so it was dumped.

Have to do some work today! Have a great one! Oh grams, good luck on those windows!

Hey Oly--I will eat anything!!!:laugh:

Windows all done, and just in time. Finished up the last one and a storm has blown in so that means some of my clean windows will now be rain spotted....bound to happen just wish I could have enjoyed them one hour.

My experience with cartos has been--when I was using the little old regular ones, I would soak them in vodka and then flush with hot water, air dry and they would be as good as new. However, the eGo mega dual coils I have not had good luck with cleaning--they just never taste good to me after cleaning--I have only tried to clean 3 or 4 but have not been successful, and I don't want to try any more cause that is a lot of wasted juice--filling those up to find you cannot vape them is expensive. And now I am also trying the epower mega dual coils--those babies are huge so I figure I won't be able to clean those either. I am thinking the dual coils in these are finicky and must be able to be dislocated easily, making them unuseable. But, that is just an uneducated guess.

Yeah i know what you mean Gram, i have several of the EMDCC's and just can't bring myself to use them after the first one was great, for a day or two. I wasn't vaping constantly and it seems they dried up a bit or something. I need to figure out a different method to avoid the itty bitty carts that came with the epower.

I don't know what to use with the epower, i keep seeing stuff for the 14650 epower but not the 18650. There can't be that much difference but i'm just not sure. I have a couple of the flat tip carts that came with it and am not a fan of the flat top.
Are they the mega dual coils? I prefer the ego mega dual coils--but they do need an adapter to fit the epower. My epower is the 14650 and the little screw on adapter is called the V2Shorty....I do not know what the one for the 18650 is called but if you search I am sure there is one. The epower mega dual coil cartos are just too big for me. I am using them cause I ordered them, but you might like them. Right here on Vapor Junction--go on the website--they have both megas available. Let me see if I can find out what the name of the adapter for the 18650 is called. I will let you know if I find something.

Oly--I think you need the 510 to eGo adapter if you want to use the ego mega dual coils which are what I use. And I do love them on the epower.
