On the last one I had my coil got in the same condition as yours.I used my vv BuzzPro turned all the way down to 3.3 volts to dry burn it and it worked great.I got another month or so out of it after that.Now I got the long barrel version and really like it too,hope it lasts as long.Good luck.

I bought my HH .357 atty and received it on Oct. 27th and used it just like the instructions stated. It lasted me 2 days on my 3.7 volt mod. The atty was a 1.5 ohm. It just quit working, no pop or anything to warn me, it simply just quit firing. I mailed it back with a short note on Oct. 31st and have not yet heard or received anything. I e-mailed AV as well as sent a private message to Cisco. Still haven't heard anything. I love Cisco atties, they are the absolute best as far as I'm concerned. I've been vaping close to 3 years now and believe me when I say I've tried all of them. I don't know what else to do now. I guess I've just out and will have to pay for another one if I want it. I'm not the kind to quit using Cisco atties because I would only be hurting myself. It really just seems like I could get at least a message telling me why it can't be or why they won't replace it. I agree with the majority here by saying that it is an excellent atty. I even ordered a standard 1.5 ohm Cisco AFTER I sent the .357 back. And as always I got excellent service. What do I need to do that I haven't already?
Sorry to hear of your dilemma. Personally, I had to contact Avid because performance dropped on one of my HH's, but it was from left-over alcohol (newbie move, I know). So I just kept it, let it dry, and it worked fine.
In regard to your situation, I would say that you have done enough for now. I would give it a couple more days, and if no reply. Try again.
From what I have read, they stick by these atties, and I would expect that you hear from them and resolve it. It might not be instant, but I am pretty sure something will happen. Keep your head up.
I have about eight of these attys. they have performed well for the most part.
I have noticed in the last week a steep decline in their effectiveness and I am not entirely sure why.
I can tell you I vape a lot of the waffle from bwb and I have had a very difficult time keeping the coils clean. They seem to get gunked up and I have yet to fine a solution for cleaning them well. I soak them frequently and have used a ultrasonic device and when necessary dry burn. None have worked really well.

Go to try a 24hr vinegar bath. I was into reef tanks for over 10 years and we use to clean are pumps heats etc with vinegar. It would worked prefect. But that was calcium build up. We will see what happens doesn't hurt to try. I have a new 357 now oooo how I love these when they are new.
I've been using these Atty's for a while now and have not fried one yet or have had any problems what so ever. I would say keeping them wet with juice is the longevity secret here to the 357's. As far as cleaning goes I give mine a quick very hot water rinse, brush off the coil with a tooth pick, a soak in pga for a half hour swishing it around once in a while, then use the hair dryer to dry it out, then a Re-Prime with PG, and Good to Go ! maybe I've been extra lucky or something but 2 of my first HH-357's are well over 70 days and still running STRONG 
So it worked pretty good. I can see metal.
what did you do exactly? vinegar? I will be interested to see how they taste now.
Is the coil totally clean? I would be curious about using vinegar in a ultrasonic. How is the taste? How did you get rid of the vinegar taste? Any chance the vinegar could hurt the atty?
Nice job. That is cleaner than mine come out with PGA in ultrasonic. I get the wick clean but never the coil.
I just wanted to return here to let everyone know that Cisco did reply to my messages and he's replacing my HH 357 with a new one at no charge. I guess I jumped a little too quickly. Thanks a lot Cisco and I'll definitely continue doing business with you.
I did the vinegar thing and also used a wooden skewer to clean the coils. It seems to have done the trick. This is after I did a number of ultrasonics as well. I am still not sure how often you can do this or if it will damage the attys in any way.
I am now soaking nightly (once they were clean) because that is the only way I can keep them clean. I vape BB waffle and they get super gunked up easily.

I used to keep mine in Vodka and every day a few times ultrasonic, no issues and they came out clean but still the coils would be blackened. I now got this dental cleaner stuff, leave it overnight with vodka mixed and the next day I can wipe off the gunk from the coils with a toothpick
