What the heck happened to my Stardust clearomizer?

[Gixx6]

After vaping some Fire & Ice from Vapedudes, my clearomizer ended up looking like this...

If I continue to vape this, will it eventually destroy my Stardust? Thanks in advance.

Looks like the cinnamon is having a reaction to the plastic tank and will eventually eat through or crack it. There is also danger of chemicals from the plastic leeching into your juice. Throw it away as soon as you can and try not to use this juice except in steel or pyrex tanks or hybrids like the Vivi nova with a steel sleeve.

Damn, I was afraid of that. I was really liking this juice. So, the Stardust is pretty much a loss at this point?

And your lungs...

I would ditch the stardust and get a mini vivi nova with a metal tube.

Gotcha. Thanks for the input guys. Looks like I'll be placing an order for some metal tube mini novas...

Those Stardusts are notorious for that. For what it's worth, I've vaped tons of cinnamon and citrus juices with the Kangar T3's with no negative impact on the tank. If you are determined to use clearos (and many people, including myself prefer those over everything else) and you want to vape cinnamon or citrus stuff, T3's are your best bet right now, or a vivi with a metal tank (as vivis have been known to cloud and crack on occasion as well.)

If youre not set on clearo's this is a great opportunity to try a carto tank with pyrex. They seem to have gotten a bad name of late because of peoples bad experience with straight cartos and also the confusion caused by calling the ViVi Nova a tank when its really a hybrid clearo/tank.

Putting the carto inside of a tank and adding holes keeps it wet constantly and can provide a better vape for some juices especially those high in vg in comparison to a Vivi Nova. It also eliminates dry hits and pyrex is non reactive to everything and doesnt give some people the taste of plastic like some clearos do.

Just throwing that out there in case you were interested.

Be careful even with the t3. Sweet tarts from mt baker vapor ruined one of mine. I only vape it through my vivi mini now.

I am sitting here with an etched tank on my T3 from a juice with high lemon and lime flavorings.

I'm a cinnamon lover. My favorite juice melted a drip tip, a couple of clearos and a vivi mini nova before I got a clue. I then got a glass tank. I thought I was home free, until the acrylic caps melted. I currently use glass tanks with stainless steel caps and a polypro tank with silicone caps, and glass or stainless steel drip tips. Once I got the right set-up everything has been lovely.
