I tried the Fluval, didn't much care for it. Still got the burning taste as the carts grew empty....sometimes before. Broke down and went for the pyramid tea bags....WOW, what a blast. Now I get excellent vapor, full carts (that last and last) and great flavor. First few hits almost took my head of....

it is not probably the best way but it is by far the quickest i have found!

be sure to fluff the material a bit once its in the cart i did not really do it in the video but it is what it is...

We need a PTB cart filling video.

This is my version of packing the DSE 901 E-cig cartridge with the Lipton pyramid tea bag.

WOW!

That was AWESOME Bama Vapor!!!! Well Done! and Thank YOU!

You did a great job and many in this forum will benefit from your video!

(I use a PTB method very similar to your video on my 510's.)

Again Bravo! (applause)

Does someone wanna try something out for me? You know how you roll the pyramid bags up, fold them in half and stuff them in the cartridge, but instead of stuffing the whole thing in, try making so you cut the bottom portion of the teabag up so that more liquid can sit on the bottom of the cart, while not being absorbed and wasted on the huge amount of teabag filter down there.

I think an illustration is due!

NORMALLY you would do as this picture describes and then continue to stuff it in our cartridges and cut to size and puff away...

Instead, why dont we do as this picture illustrates and thin out the portion of the teabag that will not come into contact with the atty bridge? Wouldnt this leave less absorbing affect and more liquid left at the bottom?

I dunno just an idea... anyone wanna try my stupid willy wonka suggestions?

Stehle · 07-29-2009, 01:30 PM

Sure will nwofoxhound!

I haven't had anything to improve upon all week with PTB's. I just love testing and messing with cart stuff.

I'll post my results using your idea after I have a chance to try it out.

ROFL i am still a little light headed myself !

they wicked up MUCH better, the vapor was considerably more ( just whats needed to simulate the actual analog even more ) and i quite like it really

ps - thanks iii ! for the video i had seen it before on youtube but out of context so now the story fits ! ( just as well as any teabag )

I have read numerous posts on using the pyramid tea bags in the 510 cartridges. I am a bit confused. Some people say to cut one in half and use that. Others swear that using the entire bag per cartridge is best. One person who comes to mind says he uses 2 entire bags per cartridge. Everyone (almost) says to roll it. Some say to fold it. Here are my questions.

1) How much tea bag is best? 1/2? 1? 2 (I kind of doubt it)?

2) Should the bag be folded after it is rolled so that 2 open rolled ends stick up or 2?

3) How tightly should the bag be rolled?

Please don't refer me to the video because I do not have working sound on my computer. Thanks. And - I apologize if this is definitively answered somewhere. I have read numerous pages and over a hundred posts on this topic without getting any clear answer on the 510. Thanks again.
