For my 510, I used 2 bags and didn't fold them, just rolled them up one on top of the other, trimmed for length. It fills the cart quite well, lost count of how many drops it took to fill it.

First impression: OMG!! Might be a little too much for me, tons of vapor. I'm thinking nicotine OD....

attempt number 1 after viewing the video...fail.

i have cheap tea bags though, i tried a couple different rolls, tight and loose, but it isn't wicking my Prodigy. sure, different type of device, but should wick right?? i won't blame the method yet and say that it doesn't work, for now i blame the tea bags. i'll be buying the Pyramid ones to try soon and see if i can get better results.

Cayman, I used the Pyramids. I have 1 cart with 2 rolled bags and 1 with 3 rolled bags, did not fold either. In the 510 cart, it leaves some passages on the edges that act very similar to the stirrer mod some people have done. Both can be topped off very easily as the air does not become trapped.

The only drawback is that I go through more juice than with the wad of poly that came with the cart. I do get some tremendous hits at first and then get lighter and lighter.

I had to rinse the the 2 layer bag after 1 day of use. I'm using the 3 layer bag today. I did notice that the 2 layer bag took a lot more liquid to fill than the 3 layer bag.

VERY Awesome Bigbob! I can't wait to try 2! Love the pic!

On a personal note the draw is light (dare I say almost non-existent), with great clouds of consistent vapor in the last 2 days use with only the original 1/2 Pyramid bag.

I've never have had a better vaping experience!

Thanks Stehle, did you fold yours after rolling it up? And which model VP are you using it on?

Yes I folded it after rolling. I have it on a 510 (Titan).

Later today I will put one on one of my 084 (DSE084, 8084)

Worlds smallest e-cig, but what a wallop! (Most realistic too!) That has a cart to match.

My favorite model, to see if the Pyramid increases the 084's cart capacity some. (A little I hope!)

You know Bigbob... I just hit the switch (manual 510 batt). and I swear vapor comes out before I even draw on it!!

I think I'm in heaven!

(Maybe its just me.)

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...
