Tea bag/tea filters.... which and where and who and how?

[Stehle]

Ya know, I honestly don't know when these Pyramids will wear out. My last cartfill has lasted me a week so far and I see no degradation of the filler. I take it out with tweezers and rinse under hot water every 2 days to clear out the old sticky liquid. Pat it dry, re-insert, fill 'er up and vape on.

I use half a Pyramid teabag, carpet rolled kinda tight and folded to get 2 rolls facing up towards the atty. Gonna try 1 roll like BigBob tonight. I'll let you know what happens...

Just the man to thank! I caught your post in a different thread DrSarcasmo!!! Thank you very much for the tip & how to on the Lipton® Pyramids!

Just got in... going to try them on 084 carts right now... where are my scissors?!!! (VERY, very small carts!)

Report back later!

[Stehle]

Filled with a little over 1/4 of a Pyramid tea bag and and about 9 -10 drops of nic-juice. (Perhaps a bit more liquid capacity and cart did last longer.)

Smoother, lighter draw, great vapor, no leaks and wicked well.
(I started coughing on first draw though.. too much!)

All in all I'm quite pleased with the whole Pyramid Tea Bag 084 cart outcome!

I am so glad to see that my teabag idea has been improved upon with the nylon teabags..I can see that without having any loose fibres there isn't much danger of any polyster being burn't on the coil so I shall have to try the lipton tea bags myself.

You're right pete, you were the original "tea bag" guy. I just stole your idea and used a different type of tea bag

Dude, the nylon tea bags work the best, out of anything I've tried. A hot water rinse every few days and they last forever it seems.

Also, didn't you used to have an avatar with a monkey in it?

Thank you both surbitonPete & bizzyb0t I read from so many and learned so very much!

Thats all I do, roll them loosely, put in cart and cut to size. Don't use too much or it will affect the draw.

Where do you buy them? with tea in them or without?

Bought Lipton tea with the pyramid teabags, filled with tea at the local grocery, in the coffee and tea aisle. The bags can be torn open at the seams. The seams are ultrasonically welded, so no glue. The tea ain't bad either.

yes, i'm very much for video learning. i tried and failed with the teabags before, but looks like iiimathman24iii did a good job...so now i gotta go try again

one thing...i counted like 17 drops when he filled his 510 cart. really? that's almost 1ml. how much are they supposed to hold? well, i say 1ml, as in, 20 drops is about 1ml, but that's not exact measurement, just rough estimate.

so yes, someone please post a vid of the pyramid bags or some pics? i can foresee myself ruining every bag in the package trying to figure it out

and also...i did some googling on the pyramid bags, and found info that they are made from PET according to Lipton? same plastic as water bottles?

has someone done all their homework and verified this is in fact what they think it is? not sure i'd want to heat up plastic and inhale it. not being paranoid, just wanting info

I found that too. It's made from recycled plastic, PET. Not sure I would use it imo.

You are quite welcome, Stehle! BizzyBot is the one who discovered them. I just pass on the word because they work so well and are easy to use.

Man, those Dse084 carts are TINY!

[Flitzanu]

i still fail. how high up are your fillers? right at the edge of the cart or lower? are you rolling and cutting the Pyramid bags or what? i've got 19 more bags to play with....heh.

Flitzanu, in order for wicking to occur, there has to be contact with the atomizer bridge. But since the Pyramid nylon is quite stiff, it will not conform as the poly fill will do, so it does have to be cut to the right length. I only have teabagged the 510, so I don't know how far the bridge sticks into the cart of other models. I took some measurements and did the math. works fine for me. You could probably eyeball it, by seeing how far the poly has been pushed in by your atomizer.

I had a pic of mine earlier in this thread...
