To Dewick or not to Dewick your atty that is the question ?

Hi,

At home I am mainly a dripper (ecigs that is). For the last 2 weeks, I have just started dewicking any new atties that I intend to drip with.

I thought it may help extend the life and flavor of my atties. Certainly hasn't made the flavor worse, but cant say I actually notice an improvement either. I don't often get the burnt taste anyway i am always keeping them wet so i dont pop them, and if i err its on the flooding side. One of my dewicked 306's died after 2 weeks so I cant really say it extended the life either.

Do others Dewick their atties and do you notice a difference?

 

gday.

everyone is different but me... if anything i just de bridge but leave wick

 

I've dewicked once.. didn't notice any improvement at all and never have done so since.

I have currently a standard resistance 510 atty that has been going for about 4 or 5 weeks now, with the wick/bridge still in (just like it came in the packet) and still going strong with no problems

 

The only advantage that I've noticed is that you can swap flavours very quickly with a debridged/dewicked atty. Good for trying new mixes if you DIY.

 

actually i dont really even de bridge. i half debridge lol

i just remove the silver mesh like stuff but leave the metal bridge. i just find its more accurate to drip into and feel the juice goes where i want it to instantly

but really no THAT big of a dif or deal i guess hehe

 

thanks for your feedback. Yeah I have stopped de wicking now. Just be.comse i didn't really notice a difference, although I think the point about swapping flavors is a good one.

 

thought id give it a go today with a 510 atty that started to go bad when a strand of polyfill got stuck to the bridge which left a horrible taste that never went away. debridged and dewicked, tastes much better when compared to another one with bridge and wick intact.

couple of downsides, can only take one drop at a time and it leaks a little easier. maybe i stuffed something up in the process?
