ROOR Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 So i see a lot of videos saying to use vodka or cola, but everyone talks about boiling them. I have yet to see a vid with the boiling method. can anyone explain to me how i go about this? Or what method is the best? I would like to try the boiling if it works well just because i don't know about leaving it in cola seems like the sugar would gunk it up. thank you!

Schizophretard Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Don't use anything but running hot water through them, blowing them out, and then letting them dry for at least a day unless you are resurrecting a dead atty. Sometimes cleaning with chemicals/soda can kill an atty, so it isn't worth it unless it is dead anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GDub Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 I'd just like to add that I would recommend using distilled water when cleaning attys. Hard water minerals can build up on the coil and cause more problems than the e-juice itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nana Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 I'd just like to add that I would recommend using distilled water when cleaning attys. Hard water minerals can build up on the coil and cause more problems than the e-juice itself. I like that idea, GDub, but I can't seem to find distilled water any more. It used to be in every store, grocery store, etc., but I haven't seen any for years. I've been looking more lately, but I just don't find it. I have looked into making my own distilled water, but that seems very time consuming. I haven't done a great deal of research into it yet, but I'm not sure it's something I can do right now. I guess I'll keep looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROOR Posted February 1, 2010 Author Share Posted February 1, 2010 So how would i get running distilled water water? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GDub Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 So how would i get running distilled water water? I have a little electric tea kettle I like to use to clean my attys. I just fill it up, turn it on, then pour it through the attys as I hold them with a slightly modified set of tweezers (I just wrapped the ends with a little electric tape so I don't scratch the finish when holding the atty).

ROOR Posted February 1, 2010 Author Share Posted February 1, 2010 I just got some purified water and micro waved it and let it sit for a few mins and now im letting it dry.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uma Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Why these ecigs don't come with assemble & washing instructions I'll never know. Tip: Make sure to prime the atty with 2 or 3? drops directly before using again. I learnt that the hard way... mine is broke. Down to one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
