A cheapskate needs to know...

1: How many times can you refill a cart and expect to get good/decent performance?

2: Any of you using the battery adaptor for the 510 to KR808D cart?

Fact is, I love my Titan 510, but the idea of taking it to the pub over Christmas and dicking around with topping off my carts when I've had a few beers is scary...it'll end up all over my fingers, then in my eyes or something.

Cheers!

The quality and longevity vary from cart to cart but my experience has been 3 to 4 re-fills. After that they are pretty week and I toss it.

If you don't burn them, (filler burns if juice is gone) I can refill and refill, haven't had one that I couldn't refill unless I burn it. If I catch it right away I can still refill, but sadly sometime it dies.

Also should add that the V4L subforum has a long list of people that regularlly get 20 or so. There is a learning curve Taryn new battery spin method has been great!! Carts taste like they are new again!!!

I should take a pic of my cart collection. I've had to throw away maybe 5 total of the genuine kr808d-1 cartomizers ive owned, most from Vapor4life.com

as a conesquence, i have a *lot* of clean empty cartomizers..perhaps Lot is an understatement...clean and dry the bag would weigh maybe 5 pounds or so

Eventually the atty will get carboned up (like a 510/901 does) and at that point, youre screwed, you just gotta toss it.

Some flavors and some brands tend to junk up the atty faster than others (just like a 3 piece...in particular the relates to refilling with non dekang juices) and once its carboned up, there's just no way to get to it to clean off the carbon but hell theyre a few bucks a piece, and were only supposed to work one use.

I have some cartomizers myself that i know with certainty were vaped down to the 15-18 drops area in excess of 20 times..so yeah, they'll last if you're willing to do the work and make sure they *never* run dry.

You can reuse your cartridges, just replace the filling. You can buy a large bag of polyester stuffing at any craft store and any department store that has a craft section (something like a Wal Mart). You may also want to check out the ADP mod if you don't like to constantly refill. I've been using this mod for several days now and it is the absolute best. I would give you a link but do not have enough posts yet. Just scroll to the bottom and type ADP mod in the search. It should bring it up from there.

Your cartridges will probably outlast your battery. I have one that got too hot and melted a little on the tip. It's still usable.

Thanks for the answers folks...looks like the same sort of deal as any atty, keep it wet and it will serve you well...I don't mind rotating a few times a day to keep 'em moist.

I'll definitely be getting a few of these carto's for the festive season (and a 510 -> KR808 battery adaptor of course).

Another idea if you have a good number of extra 510 like I do...

Put a whole bunch of complete PVs together. Then just switch 'em when they run dry.

4 complete 510s is still smaller than 1 510 PCC.

What Tout said. This is absolutely amazing and has revolutionized how I refill KR808 carts. I'm using em for days on end like new, just switching out menthol for non-menthol (flavor variety). In my experience the KR808 works best with a primer puff or two but with this refill method you are good to go because it really gets the juice where it needs to be SO much better than plain old dripping.

I recently took a six hour drive with a fresh cart and battery and never stopped vaping. That was enough to make me put down my 510 and never look back. I still have it around for old time's sake but rarely touch it any more.
