Refilling the cartomizer: The Movie

[clear lungs]

Larry I was trying to read the label on the butterscotch label but could not. Where did you get it? Is it PG or VG? I love butterscotch and want to try it...especially if it is thick like you say. Thanks!

Larry, what flavors have you had the best and worst experiences with? None of those few I've tried work nearly as well as new.
Thank you!

For the record, the Kamel juice is the absolute BEST i've refilled with. I'm on a cart thats lasting 4 days now, and the vapor is momma-thick!

Just started with an e-cig (first one is a Bloog not a vk) a week ago today and after the second day I ordered some juice from cigeasy so I could try different flavors. I hadn't seen this post/video until today but it's nice to see that the way I went about refilling was the way most are doing it. Refilling definitely makes an improvement over what I was getting from the original carts. Nice helpful video here kudos for that.

I like this method a lot more than refilling, since it keeps me at just under 2 carts a day now.

after reading that I took the cart I had already refilled and had been using for the last couple hours and I put just two drops in from the battery end and I'm not sure how long it will last since I just did it about 10 minutes ago but it is definitely producing the best throat hit I have gotten with this so far, kicking the strength of the flavor up a notch, and producing the most vapor I've experience so far too and therefore the closest feel to a real cig. so thanks to you for the second time already bornagainst.

I think I'll definitely continue refilling carts the way I was (just like in the video) but now I'll know to put a couple drops in from the battery end to amplify the performance each time I put a new cart on.

it's PG liquid, and if you check out my channel, you'll find the butterscotch..I try not to toss competitors brands in supplier forums lol.

Thank you!

Menthol seems odd when you refill it, at least at first..seems like you get all menthol and no vapor..but it straightens out after a few dozen puffs..throat hit is there, flavor is there, vapor is not (were talkin about refilling remember)

marl works good but not as long as menthol does..seems to start junking up the atty sooner, maybe 5 or 6 refills before it fails.

coconut starts tasting funny after about 4 refills, flushing out the carto with distilled water and blowing it out/letting it dry for a while seems to help

I'd have to tear the cartomizers apart to determine which flavor actually junked up the coils...but i usually toss them when its evident theyre "done" lol.

I have found that the best tools for all this "diy" stuff is either dental tools or even better, sculpting tools. To be even more specific, miniature hard "wax-working" tools. I usually just order them online because because the types of stores that might carry these can be rather hard to find depending on where you live.
I can try to find the URLs of the 2-3 online sites I used to buy from if anyone's interested...
