clearomizers and "cleaning"

[Hellecat]

Okay, basically, I'm wondering if since my juice in my clearomizers starts going dark by the third day or so using them. It does effect the taste a bit. I have three flavors in my weekly rotation, so that's three of the five clearomizers in the pack of 5 I buy at the B&M store. Is it possible using a syringe to remove the dark juices to refill them with clean juice of the same flavor? I know it would only get a few more days use out of them, but..eh. It would be less of a hassle to only buy the packs of clearomizers bimonthly.

What clearo are you using?

[Hellecat]

Duh......the ones made for my kanger e-smart ( says clearomizers for esmart in the box) 1.3ml and I unscrew the mouth piece to fill them, and there is a little space between that and...the ...I don't know, its a bitty little tube they tell me to not get liquid in. A syringe tip would fit between the tube dealer and the actual part where the wicks are.

My response is so technically accurate.... don't be intimidated by my massive knowledge on the subject! =D

You can try alcohol or vodka washing and letting them dry but I only use tanks and clearos now with changeable coils because I never had any luck with the wicks coming clean.

[Hellecat]

Yeah I was thinking that, but since I would use the same flavors that were in them already, I'm not sure if it would be less of a hassle or not to actually vodka clean them.

You know for sure its not rebuildable? Can you take it apart further than just the mouthpiece?

I would just empty it out. Rinse the whole thing out then let it dry for a day or so. Then refill. One of the advantages to getting a rebuildable clearo is the whole cleaning process can be done quickly, refill, and be on your way.

I just put my clearos in rotation. Every three days or so I vape it down, clean it and leave it to dry. Load up a fresh one and repeat the process. I try to keep like flavors straight because some flavors linger even in a clean clearo

Edit: you can really extend coil life with rotation. I'm getting 2 - 3 weeks of fairly heavy vaping from a coil, some longer depending on juice

Yeah I am pretty positive the tierimisu and green apple would totally take over any clearo they were put in.

I'll fiddle with them and see what I can do.

[Hellecat]

Well that answered that. No they are not rebuildable. They make a cool shattering effect though when you try to pull/unscre the metal bits. (Don't worry, still have plenty of new ones left, that was an used one)

[Bebop]

Oops. Sorry about that.

Well thats one way to find out. Now you know.

Take your time. When your ready to upgrade you'll save a bit and get better performane with a rebuildable

If I can hot water clean cinnamon out of long wicks there is hope !

If it were me Id still try to soak them clean , hot water and soap and a good rinse in hot water cant hurt .

Fuzion Vapor carries a product called "flavor Erase" or something like that. Its a liquid. I dont know if you rinse with it or vape it thru or what.

I havent tried it but might be worth a shot or it could be BS.
