The search is over. If you work as a health care professional anyways.
I use the the spongey part of the oral swabs used to clean the mouths of patients as my plug for the cart. Just cut it a couple mm bigger than your cart opening and about 3/16ths of an inch thick. Then take a tube used to draw blood from the heels of newborns. This tube is hollow and uses capillary action to draw fluids upwards against the force of gravity.
Cut the tube at an angle like the end of a syringe needle. Make it about an 1/8th of an inch shorter than the cart. drip in your juice, plug it with the sponge. The tube pumps the juice into the sponge untill the sponge is full, then it stops. When the sponge begins to dry, it is refilled by the tube. Perfection at it's ultimate.

No needle needed my friend. Though I have found that syringes don't like e juice. After a use or two they get stuck. So much so that the rubber piece pulls out of the stick thingy. If you rinse it with water you can get about half a dozen uses before it is ruined. Good thing their free. For me anyways. Take care and remember. "It's time we smokers quit rolling over and taking it on the other cheek" Vape where you want too!

You might need to try a different brand of syringe.
I have two here going on 2 months use that have never been rinsed or cleaned and both work fine.
A 3 ml syringe has never stuck, and a 10 ml has always stuck (since new) but a quick draw-back releases it for a smooth "injection" into the cartridge. Neither show any signs of separation or degradation.

those tubes contain heparin don't they.. might not be to good to be inhaling, the heparin is safe to inject as long as you do not have problems with bleeding the FDA warning is about that bad batch that went out when china tried to make it cheaper and killed a bunch of ppl..

No heparin is present in standard syringes or needles. There are too many medications where heparin is contraindicated to make it a standard, doing so would lead to medical errors.

not in syringes in the tubes for collection of blood. i am assuming that he was referring to the very thin 2-3 inch tubes that you can put up to a pin prick and it sucks the blood up
