    Default Number of holes in cartomizer?

    So I'm using mostly Ms. T's liquids, which don't give the specific VG/PG ratio, but it does say on her site that they are a little more VG than PG (I'm assuming it's 60VG/40PG).

    How many holes should I punch in a single coil cartomizer to use with her juice and a DCT?


    Mods: Too many. I can't keep track anymore.

    I'd go with two holes on that ratio.

    Using two holes as well. However, flavors like new watermelon which are a little bit more viscous than lets say snickerdoodle, I can get away with 1.

    Kinda new to using tanks myself, but I think it also depends on what cartomizer you are using.
    I have a resurrector in my tank and it floods with ONE hole.

    That said... the first carto I used it with straight PG and it flooded quite a bit.
    With the second carto I loaded 50/50 PG/VG and made the hole the same size.
    It doesn't flood as much, but still floods some.

    I am sure if I was using a Boge carto, I would need a larger hole or 2 of them.
    In my limited experience, the SmokTech's wick much faster than the Boges.

    My guess is that something else is causing the flooding. I slot my carts with two big gashes and they still don't flood.

    hmmm interesting.....
    Well i need to refill this one. It's a Mom and Pops tank in my case.
    I blew out the battery end until the carto top is white and then some more for good measure.... (wicking hasn't been an issue.) I'm gonna let it sit for a bit cause I have something to do, then I'll syringe fill it again.

    I think I've figured out why I was experiencing flooding.
    I've vaped thru half this tank and it's working like a champ.

    Anyway....
    While I'm at work I use KGO bats and as demonstrated in a video review by GrimGreen, the button still fires for about 1/2 second after you let it go. This gave me a habit of letting the button go before my draw is finished. My Silver Bullet has the tank and it's button works as it should.

    I think the extra draw I was giving it after the button was let go was over priming the carto.
