I've taken to using one of the CO2 ball dischargers after "final" cleaning to clear the flash channel.

That seems like a good idea. How many spurts of air can one get out of a CO2 cartridge when using it to clean the channel? I have never owned one.
 
When used to clear the flash channel, it only takes one, maybe 2, quick spurts of CO2 through the nipple. I've used the same CO2 cartridge for as long as 2 or 3 months. It depends how much you shoot. I also carry it with me on "woods walk" type of shoots and use it evry 5 or 6 shots just to make sure gunk doesn't build up in the channel. As always, your mileage may vary.
