How Do You Clean a Vape Battery?
Keeping your battery’s pin connectors clean will help your device work better for you when vaping. Start by using a clean dry cotton bud to remove any fluff or dust gathered on metal parts.
Then, polish away any greasy or oily fingerprints if you do touch the battery’s elements. This will help everything stay in good working order.
It goes without saying to avoid getting the cotton bud tip wet for safety reasons. You might also find yourself with a non-working vaping device should this happen.
Remember; different vapes will have batteries in different places. So be sure to consult the manual of your vape before attempting to clean anything.
How Do You Clean the Clearomiser Tank?
This is much easier than you might think – and it’s quick too! All you need is warm water and a cloth or piece of kitchen roll to dry the tank.
Firstly, pour away any leftover e-liquid from the tank and disassemble it. Rinse the tank thoroughly under running warm water to ensure you wash away any lingering e-liquid residue, then dry the tank as much as you can.
To ensure the tank is completely dry, leave it to air dry for around 10 minutes before putting it back together. It really is that simple.
It’s important to note that the coils can’t be cleaned, so you will need to replace these every few weeks depending on how often you use your vape.
How to Clean a Vape Mouthpiece
Wondering how to clean a vape tip or mouthpiece? Cleaning the vape pen tip is the easiest part. Adding rubbing alcohol to your regular cleaning routine is the best way to refresh the mouthpiece and remove any germs.
First, place it in a bowl of rubbing alcohol and use either a soft-bristle toothbrush or saturated cotton bud to remove any stains and residue.
You may also remove any dust by blowing into the mouthpiece to dislodge it. Ensuring your vape’s tip is clean should optimise your vaping experience.
Finally, ensure that each component is completely dry using a cloth or kitchen roll before reassembling your vape.
How Do You Store Your Vape?
As tempting as it is to leave your vape where you can see it, it’s best to keep it out of direct sunlight. Exposure to sunlight and high temperatures could affect the battery pack and flavour and, in turn, compromise your vaping experience.
Keep your vape at room temperature and store it away from water (another element that could affect the battery). You may want to consider storing your vape in a protective case as you would your phone.

How Do I Maximise Performance?
Just as you wouldn’t let your car’s tank get to empty, you shouldn’t let your vape tank run dry either. Make sure there is plenty of e-liquid in your tank while you’re using it, but don’t overfill it. A dry or overfilled tank can cause damage to your device.
