How do you label your cartomizers?

[Strigoi]

I keep my cartos in small ziplock style bags with the liquid that is in it. I just take the bags from my work and it works well to keep everything separate. The bags are big enough to hold a 30ml bottle and a couple of cartos easily. All of those are kept in a crappy little plastic tool box I have.

Wow! You learn something new every day! I haven't seen these before! I wish these had been around when I first started up. I've pretty much used most of the methods mentioned here. Over time I've collected several varieties of drip tips which I use on cartomizers. I use the color of the drip tip to help me keep track of the flavor in the carto.

The best part is they're fifty cents. For all five of them.

masking tape and pen does the trick for me [cheap and effective lol]

 

[Bethzilla]

GREAT question! I'm a newbie, too, and I was wondering about how to keep the cartomizers straight, too.

i usually mark my order batch with a number, and then each flavor with a different letter...so

order #1 = 1A, 1B, 1C
order #3 = 3A, 3B, 3C

and then i label each flavor & cartridge with the matching code, and i put a little bit of clear tape on the cartridge so my lips dont smudge off the marking

I tried writing on tape. I put it on the cartomizer. Then when I put the cone on, it didn't fit well.

I've been thinking about this but wouldn't those little nail art stickers they sell and a little clear nail polish to keep the sticker from lifting work? If it were dried over night would even be water proof. Suppose it'll depend on the outer casing of the device and if it's covered in silicone. But even the guys could use that as I've seen flames, skulls, and spiders sold before. (especially around halloween) then no printing or cutout and looks cleaner than hand printing labels... Just a thought.

I use something similar to this. I just keep my juice bottle and carto in the same slot.

I love that, Rocker!!!

Do you put the labels on the cartos or on the end caps?

On the Carto's below the atty line. Tip: tape over the label with scotch tape so it is better secured.

I paint different colored stripes around cartos with wife's nail polish and matching color on the juice bottle. Works well and seems to be very durable

 

[Bloogmiester]

Sorry. I also try to make it make sense for when I'm at work:
Black carto with red stripe = black cherry
Blue carto with green stripe = blueberry menthal
Plain green carto = plain menthal
Etc etc etc

A note on dripping- from my experience it is good to put 3-4 drops onto the coil, then wait 30 seconds, add 2-3 more drops and vape. This will make your coil plenty wet and give you a great experience. Also, the drip tips can be used to replace the soft or hard caps found on the cartomizers. I like to use wide mouth drip tips for this, when I am not dripping but using cartos.

You will also want to take a paper towel and blow out any machine oil that is initially in the atomizer. I would toss the carts that came with the kit, they are a real mess.

So far I just use an ink pen on those blank address labels you get to print off your pc. Each label gets cut in half lengthwise, then wrapped around the carto once with the excess nipped off, then I wrap a piece of clear tape around it. Condoms slip easily over them so it works for me for now. I'm still experimenting with flavs so it's just a cheap temporary method, but it works for now

Chatter, I am not having good luck with dripping. I tried dripping on a atomizer cartridge that came with the Kgo kit. I just used the metal part, not the plastic and dripped on the little bumpy thing. Then I put a rubber tip on top. I also tried it with the white tip from the cartomizers. It tasted like burning plastic, and the juice gets in my mouth. Blech!

Sounds like you are not getting enough juice on the coil. Take a look at the picture in this picture, about half way down the page, should show a break out of all three components. Just making sure you have the right piece that you are dripping into as the atomizer and the cartridge should be separate. If you do not have three pieces then you probably have a battery and a cartomizer. You can't really drip into a cartomizer as it requires the batting to be wet(someone correct me if I am wrong here). Looking inside the atomizer you should see something similar to this. That is what you want to drip onto.

As I said before, put 3-4 drops on that, then wait 30 seconds or so and add 2-3 more drops. Put a drip tip on the atomizer and puff away for about 5-10 puffs.

I hope this helps. It took me a while to figure out allot of this stuff.

I have two different systems that I use, but now that I have toned down on my different juice consumption, I stick with just the 1. I use my kids tiny pony tails and color code my cartos that way (that was the old way) and I use different color drip tips for different flavors (the way I use now) I have 4 different drip tips atm, and I use about 3 flavors routinely. Blue is my vanilla cola, stainless for my tobacco (555.5) and red for my cinnamon.
