What's your favorite cartridge filler?

[Kendra]

I'm having problems with filling my cartridges. I've tried the stainless steel wool pad, poly fiber, and teabag filters. I'm not sure what works the best, but nothing works great. It seems my original cartridge fillers lasted longer than anything I'm using now. I don't mind topping off, but I wish that I could get them to taste as good as they do new for a longer amount of time. As it is, everything I've tried just tastes really old within a couple of days.

So, what's everyone's favorite?
Thanks.

Hey my old friend
hope all is well, other than your filler issues

I, too have used everything, the staimless steel wool, teabags, paper towels, napkins, and I go back to my blank carts, or reuse a few older ones. I find that after maybe 2 full days, they have had it, DONE, OVER
so, I just put in a new one. The blanks are cheap and seem to last the longest for me. I also, have gone past any cart and just vape directly on the atomizer, It provides great hits and I just need to drip more often
I do not think, at this point in the product development, that anything, is gonna be a perfect match. I just realize it is part of the program

I used that poly batting for 6 months--but now I am a Tea bag user--What a great idea and it works--so thanks again my Friend Pete!!! I have not tried coffee filters as the tea bags seem to really be doing it---Sun

Sun Hi
How long does it last for you, until you replace the teabag?
Are you using a standard US made bag, or an english type bag?

Do you roll lose or very tight, with a modest hole in it?
I purchased empty english teabags and I agree they work well, however, they do not seem to last as long as an other type filler

Hey sun ..really glad the teabag's are working for you....I don't know about you but the only thing I do find is that with whatever material I use... nothing ever works as well as it does when it's fresh and clean and filled for the first time.

The tea bag is kind of working. It just doesn't seem to wick like the original cart filler that would be almost dry in my M401. It holds liquid that ends up in the trash when I change them out.

The coffee filter seems to be the best and most affordable for my penstyle.

Fist off, thank you very much for the ideas. It's made a tremendous difference. It is not often I come across something that has such an immediate positive impact, and this is one of them.

I agree with you 100% about these things working best when they are fresh. That's why I've been using your paper towel idea. I just don't feel bad about using a fresh one after refilling it once or twice It works great in both my 901 and 401, and the flavour seems crisper.

For those of you trying the paper towel, remember, less is more.

I find the teabag is becoming a good second for me (about as good as my fluffed-toys-filler).
But together on the first place are original ruyan-filters (which feel a bit greasy for arond 5 times re-using, with rinsing well inbetween); and re-using Janty-filters (which perform well for around 3 or 4 refills with rinsing inbetween).

All of this is really helpful for me, too. I think I was expecting a longer life with the cartridge fillers-- whatever they were . . . not weeks, mind you, but maybe a week. So, I thought mine were going bad too soon (and too inconveniently for me!). But, if they only last a couple of days, maybe I'm having better luck than I thought.
