Well so far it's working great except for one issue i'm working on. I washed a bunch at once along with some barely used tequila and margarita cartos that i flat out despised. But they all managed to pick up the taste! So I've had them all in there in a vodka bath on low agitation since last night. I'll take them out after work this evening and let you know how it goes :)

Mantra of the Day: I will not freak out when my ADHD student screams and breaks her violin bow against my conductor stand.

Here's a thought for ya', and maybe I'm the only one this happens to but I'm going to assume that you've been plagued by it before, as well: Ever notice how nobody calls the landline telephone until you're in the middle of something important in the bathroom? That's where I get peace and quiet, relax a bit, and then brrrrrrrrnnnnggg~brrrrrrnnnnggg! Argh!!!

my cell only rings when im busy lol .....or in a store not wanting to talk ...my landline here in a rural area manages to get every possible nuisance call ,much more then in the city even tho i am on the "do not call " list ..i only use it for emergencies

Oh goody! I was wondering about the transfer of flavors, if any. I thought vodka would neutralize it all. If there was juice left in the tequila/margarita cartos, maybe they should have been spun out first? How many cartos are you washing at once? I only have about 15 I could wash.

Well, it's still too early to say for sure until they dry, but I think it worked great! No smell left at all and the polyfill looks as white as a new blank carto. To answer your question, I did 10. I probably could do more, but it was a manageable number for my small UC

Hmm, maybe the ultrasonic cleaner I bought isn't a very good one (well I did get it on ebay). It only goes for 3 minutes at a time, and according to the instructions, that's what it's meant to do. So far I've only tried it on some jewellery, and honestly couldn't tell any difference. Only reason I haven't tried cartos is that then I have to wait for them to dry and that seems to take days (I have hand & arm problems, so taryn spin isn't an option for me). I think I will try it on some cool carts I have that had Wowboy Peppermint in - that flavour is hard to get rid of. I'll go do that now while I think of it. Think I'll try some in water & some in vodka.

I was nervous to try this, but I saw it recommende here and it worked! I put the cartos on a cookie sheet in the oven set to just under 200 for about half an hour. Battery connection side up. As soon as the carto i'm puffing on is done i should be ready to fill one of the clean ones
