Weird atty problem?

[DuncanDisordely]

Hi Peeps

I've got a strange issue with my atomiser. I've only had it for 12 years and I clean it weekly in alchohol, fortnightly in water, and daily dry burn clean it. I've had it gold plated, chromed, and diamonte'd. Between cleans I store it in distilled water with 10% vodka solution and I make sure I polish it twice a day.

Well anyway just this week it's stopped working and I cannot figure out why? It's a LR and I have heard a rumour that they don't last as long as the normal ones but I've not had it that long and I spent a whole £4.99 on it!

Please someone help me with my strange weird unusual issue

uve had an atty 12 yrs? its gold chrome and diamond seems like u r excessively cleaning it tho i clean mine after a month or so if production /flavor go down

12 years??? Only 12 years...4.99£ for 12 years....and you complain bout that?
Well..since this was probably a typo i will try to answer the best way i can.

I clean my attys (LR or not) weekly...even today i felt a strange taste on my LR and i decided to clean it.
I threw it inside some vodka and rested for a while. (how i wished i would be a atty sometimes)
Then, with a seringe, i made the vodka pass through the atty a couple of times while blowing it everytime i could.
It was clean in like....5 minutes...

LR's do have a shorter lifespan and can die at any time they want.
If you want more stable attys, try Cisco LR...seen some 2.0ohms working at 7.2V and they lived...

Where and when did you have it diamonte'd? I heard that Fizzler's was having trouble in their diamonte'ing line during the last week of last June and some attys were damaged that came off the line. But since it wasn't diamonte'd during manufacturing the lifetime guarantee is void.
Hope this wasn't your problem!

I think after 12 Years it's time to buy a new atty.

Let us know in 2023 how the second one works.

Now that is a darn good atty. Please let me know where you can get one of these attys

You can't buy them anymore...

The company that made them went out of business because no one ever needed to buy a replacement.

He also voided the warranty when he had it plated.

Must have had Magnus Take him for a ride to the future to get one of them new raidy atties...they aren't made yet...

I'd check the battery cables...and the plug wires.

 

[FatBill]

Your right! You do have a weird atty problem.....
And you got that atty way before you started vaping......

 

[MadmanMacguyver]

You can't trust anybody to keep their mouth shut now'a'days....... except the Oods. And the Headless Monks. -Magnus

It was passed down from Father to Son. It's kinda a Family Heirloom.

AHHHH. I understand. Too bad they don't make attys like they used to.

Probably best. I understand research has shown the diamonds make them carcinogenic. Kind of a trade off - have a dead atty or have a dead atty user.

 

[JW50]

Reviewed the research. Risk factor doubles when diamonds soaked in vodka.

 

[DuncanDisordely]

yep they don't make them like they used to! This one was pulled from cleopatra's headpiece and converted into a usable atty (she had no clue how to use it properly)
The vodka is all that keeps me sane, don't take that away from me with your carcinogenic threats

Seems like you might have a hairloom there. Vodka only increases the risks - not automatic death. And only in connection with diamonds. Just one of those trade offs. I think I would opt toward sanity. How can one appreciate what they didn't get if not sane.
