    Blue Foam PLUG! UPDATED v2.0 "THE SLUG" - The Search is over!

    Just noticed this thread and thought. why isint anyone mentioning my cart mod? hehe

    For any other cart besides a 510, use a straw to hold the foam plug or slug in place.

    well, i found some eyglass wipes that must be made of some non treated polyester, since i held a lighter to it and it well burned and melted. could you not just use a lighter to see if it melts and burns to tell if its treated or not?

    That's why I've taken it upon myself to design a completely new dispensing system that could be used to replace all of these wicks/fillers in various cart models. The exception to the rule would be those that have the atomizer and wick contained in one component. This new system will be extremely sanitary, fire proof, melt proof, fray proof, etc. It will be somewhat expensive to manufacture compared to what we're used to in OEM cart fillers but it should last a very long time and of course be reusable via a simple rinse with warm water.

    I can't really go into much more detail yet because at this point it's just on paper. Within the next few weeks I should be ready for a few 'beta' testers. Btw, what's a beta tester called when it comes to testing hardware as opposed to software? Guinea pigs? Don't fret though - there should be no safety issues to concern anyone with.

    If it all works out to what my schematics suggest this new system could even convert the most devout drippers back to using carts. Wouldn't it just be heaven to have a happy medium between cart topping and dripping via a built in mechanism without all the hassle? Not to mention less stress on the atomizer while holding liquid that is dispensed consistently till the last drop.
    Lika! Pick me for a Beta (Guinea Pig) Tester!!!!!

    Umm... Lika posted that back in March of `09. Not sure if he ever "got there from here" with his design.

It simply refers to the inherent nature of polyester. I have posted an email communication in an earlier thread from the manufacturer of Fairfield polyfill that states the same thing. Just be sure to buy 100% polyfill you do not want to use a cotton or rayon blend.
    Are you SURE? I don't know about that - and if so, are there different TYPES of polyfill?? Different brands of carts seem to have different filler properties. And ALL of them absorb the liquid better than the bags of polyfill I've bought to restuff. The stuff in the bags just lets the liquid sit on top instead of absorbing, and the fibers are constantly coming out and stick in the atty/bridge.

    I tried Fluval, its slightly better at wicking and doesn't fall out of the cart quite as readily, but this stuff gives my liquid a strange taste.

    I don't want to deal with cutting up tea bags, so now I'm thinking of buying either organic wool or just getting new replacement carts. Any suggestions?
