Oh and I remeasured the cart depth (put a straw in, cut it flush & measured it) and it's 18mm deep, not including the little dip in the middle. Maybe make the plug length exactly 1/2 at 9mm?
Wholly mother of vaping I just blew out 5 drops out of my flooded atty. I'm dissecting that cart as I write this. I have been using the BP with the grain running the cart length.
More news as I have it.![]()
That is how I've been playing with length. I made a jig with a straw the same length as the inside cavity for gage reference. Great minds think a like. 13mm is equivalent to a 1/2". 9mm may solve my flooding issue. So 13x9x6 lets try it. I got plenty of juice.
Amen sister! Once we solve the sizing issue you'll go down in vaping history for your BP discovery.This material is great - it's just a matter of getting the right dimensions!!

Well i'm vaping on the same juice but the plug diminsion is 6x9x13 and it seems to be working. No flooding. I'm thinking that the 6x9mm is perfect for sealing. We'll need to play with the length.
I'm also thinking that the plug can not be any shorter that the distance between the mouth of the cart and the cart internal shoulder. I just measured it and the distance is aproximately 8mm. That would put you right there at 8mm if you trim 5mm off of 13mm. Interesting....

So, you went WIDER but kept the length the same? I'm using nhaler HV, which tends to be tick - maybe your liquid is thinner and wicks through the longer plug better?
I'm at 4-5mm wide, 8mm long and about 9-10 mm deep. Not drying out now!
If I went 9mm long, it compresses too much for wicking. 8mm is about as wide as I can go with this liquid. No flooding at all at this size.
Well just vaped that one dry. I'm not sure vaping 24mg that fast is too smart but ohhh well. I'm gonna try the 6x9x8. *crossed fingers*
Too funny. I just switch from Xhale to HV. You're right Xhale is thinner than HV. The 8mm length seems to be good for the HV. I noticed that if the atty is warm it wicks better but you have to watch out for over heating. I think we almost have it! 4-6w x8L x8d mm for HV
and 9L x6w x13d(?)mm for Xhale. Sweet.
The concept seems to work. Honestly after my first try and flooded out I didn't think it work. Sheeeez this is getting to hurt my brain...wait is me just over nicing.![]()

Drew is going to love this. You can go through a lot of juice with this cart mod.
I think we may need to change the title of the thread to "The BP plug ultra drip mod"
