I use 100% Polyester Fill (batting)
Recently, I started "balling" my poly-fill stuffing with excellent results. Leakage is much more minimal also (I load the carts. of my Pilot M401 to the brim). Excellent vapor production all the way 'till it's dry.
Heres How I Do It:
Take a small piece of batting and pull it apart so it is wispy (thin).
Form the stuffing into a small ball by "mushing" it together (about the same size as the cartridge). Lightly insert (don't pack it tight) Poly stuffing into the cartridge using a paper clip. Then stretch the stuffing out past the edge of cart. then trim with sissors. When you push the stuffing back in, you want it to receed slightly from the opening of the cartridge. That way you can "pool" the eliquid. Also make sure the batting touches the back of cartridge for the best wicking.
Very simple & effective. Practice will make perfect.
I USE THE "HIGH LOFT", Polyester Quilter's BATTING..... FROM WALMART.
**If you have to "draw" harder than normal to produce vapor, reduce the amount of batting.**
**If you can "draw" normally, but can't get good vapor, make sure batting is touching the backside of the cartridge and the front must have contact with the atomizer, or increase the amount of batting.**

how small of a ball?...can you post a photo of your hand holding one of your balls up against a cart so we can see the size of your balls? (I can only imagine what an unsuspecting newbie might be thinking right now if this is the first post they might be reading here, lol)
seriously...post a pic of the size...not sure what denseness works best yet.
Avalable at Walmart for 7 dollars--enough to make cores for a year--do not waste your money--this is the same stuff as the originals--100% polyester:---Sun
I use the polyfill from Walmart, and it does work, but I fight strings hanging all over hell. I even try to trim with scissors, but the fill still gets stringy.
Maybe I'm not rolling it tight enough. I don't know...
