| No. used them on the batteries i had that were retired. or batteries from china that had no other matches. also wasted money on adapters that didn't work. (right threads, wrong connector). |

Guess I'll see how long each one will last. Does anyone know if these can be cleaned?
Ordered my supply with LeCig's discount code!

| T-bob,if you've got the translucent tube model they sure can. Run under hot water do the "thermometer shake" to get the water out,repeat a couple of times. When the wick is white again its clean. Let it dry or do a dryburn. Refill
If it starts to not produce vapor even when full the coil is probably caked with burnt juice residue. Throw it away,you've got you moneys worth OR WARNING Will Robinson!! Danger of burning coil out and killing the carto. you can dry burn by putting the cleaned empty carto on a fresh,big battery and hit the button for a couple of seconds when the wick is totally dry the coil will begin to generate smoke as the crud burns off the coil. (Remember,you already got your monies worth) keep hitting the hot button 2sec on 2sec off until smoke from the coil begins to diminish. Stop dry burning and there should be a little white ash on the coils. Refill it should perform like new. I have had ONE of those CE2s last 4 months using that technique. I also lost a couple but they were ready for the trash before I did the dry burn so no biggy.

| Thanks Bikes! but I got the metal ones, can't see thru them. I could probably still run them under hot water and just peek at the top wick that goes into the cup to see if its clean.
Also how do you know when to clean them?

| When flavor drops off or whatever you are comfortable with. Remember that VG is very sweet so you should treat the carto sort of like a dirty dish not as frequently but just work out a cycle that you like.
The metal ones are even more durable than the plastic tubes,you just can't see the juice level or the wicks. If you do 3-4 wash/shake cycles you should be fine. I'd even use them in a tank if they don't have the black color wrap on them.

I gotta say tho, these LeCig CE2's match up well with the PigCig. Good vapor, taste and TH. Filling them the way you taught me makes it bearable. For now I think I have my vaping set up!
