The phrase refers to the process of removing blockages from a cartridge, typically associated with vaporizing devices. These blockages prevent the proper flow of oil or concentrate, rendering the device unusable until resolved. The issue arises when the viscous contents solidify within the cartridge’s airway. For example, a user might find that they are unable to inhale from their device due to a build-up of solidified material obstructing the airflow.
Addressing such blockages is vital for maintaining the functionality and lifespan of vaporizing devices, ensuring users can consistently and efficiently utilize their product. Historically, users discarded blocked cartridges, resulting in unnecessary waste and expenditure. Effective methods for clearing these obstructions allow for the continued use of the cartridge and its contents, presenting a more cost-effective and environmentally conscious approach.
