Here are my questions.
1) How much tea bag is best? 1/2? 1? 2 (I kind of doubt it)?
I have used 2, but I roll them whole and trim to size it after I stick it in the cart. Due to the height difference between the Old and New attys, they have to be different lengths.
2) Should the bag be folded after it is rolled so that 2 open rolled ends stick up or 2?
I've tried both, makes no difference that I can tell.
3) How tightly should the bag be rolled?
Theoretically the looser, the more liquid it would hold, but it will wick out quicker, which might result in flooding. Tighter and the bag uses up more volume and wants to hold the liquid more. I trim the 1st one shorter that the 2nd to create a cup to "hug" the atty bridge, makes it wick very nicely.
Trial and error, there is no right answer, you gotta do what you like best.

I feel like I've tried all of the cart mods! lol I do have a question on this, as this seems to be wicking extremely well, and is pretty much a snap to top off/refill/clean/reuse/etc.
Who here is using the pyramid tea bags with DSE801/Kissbox style carts? Can you explain how you are doing this?

The Lipton Pyramid tea bag is the best thing since sliced bread..Don't try sliced bread.heh
I got two carts per bag and did not bother folding since I wanted the hole in the center.It is loose and seemed as though the juice would run out but it does not.
I messed up and cut one a bit short. So I took it back out and added a small piece of the original filler to the bottom..This aslo seems to allow the nylon to form to the atty better because of a slight cushion.It is also more forgiving to clumsiness and inaccuracy LOL.
Thanks Bizzyb0t and everyone else.

Thanks!
I want to give a big thanks to Robert and Bigbob for being quick with detailed answers. Thanks, guys!
I would also be quite remiss if I didn't say "Thanks!" to bizzyb0t who first led many of us in this direction.
I learn so much everyday from all of you.

I'm trying something right now on the 801 cart. Took 1 PTB, split it in half, rolled up two carpet rolls and inserted them into the respective oval shaped sides of the cart. So far it's working pretty good 
EDIT: Added polyfill to the bottom of my 801 cart as Some Guy did, seems to improve the cart mod further.
