That's good to know, I tend to be a bit of a joker myself, so, maybe I'll fit in.
I just did a quick clean of the atty, then I looked it over with a magnifying glass. Then I blasted away with the steam cleaner, holding it lightly with some needle nose pliers. I thought about taking it easy so I wouldn't kill the atty, but, decided to go all out. Lots of crap came out, but, the only way to know if it's superior to other methods would be to use another method, and then use the steamer and see if more gunk comes out. (however, I think I can safely say it's at least equal to other methods) Maybe down the road I'll try that, nevertheless, I examined the atty afterward with said magnifying glass, and it looked absolutely spotless. I then screwed it on the battery and voila, still vapes. Which is good, because I only have 2. Bottom line, it is now my preferred method for atty cleaning hands down. It's quick, it's painless , seems to do a good job, doesn't kill the atty, I'm all in. That being said, this wasn't like a double blind scientific study, your mileage may vary.
Can anyone tell me if I can move the bridge out of the way without killing the atty? I would like to look at the coil, to be sure it got cleaned. (bridge? coil? I think that's what I'm talking about, I'm new, remember) Bridge is the metal mesh thing, yes? Coil would be the thing that heats up, true?
