510 - Am I adding liquid to the right place?

[Toadster61]

Through alot of help here, I learned I have a Titan 510 from Totally wicked, ,a 510 branded with their alien head logo on it, Now I just saw a video on their site that explains that you add e-liquid to the fiber in the cartridge ONLY, The guy at the e-cig store where I bought this told me to add a few drops of liquid INSIDE the atomizer on the steel wick, AND to keep the cartridge moist as well,,Is this correct?Do you add liquid into the atomizer - Or does liquid go into the cartridge only ?? did I damage anything ? very confused now, been using it like this for a few weeks, is it possible I have generic cartridges?, I saw the 510 cartrdiges have a white plastic piece inside ..mine dont,just white fiber stuff,,,,thank you

You can do both, how much directly on the bridge will depend if you have a manual or auto battery, though I've had no problems direct dripping on bridge of my auto's (best hit for me)...just play with it, you'll figure out what works best for you.

You can prime the atomizer by adding a couple of drops to the bridge (the steel wick inside it.) Liquid also fills the cartridge and it doesn't hurt anything. Lots of us drip, including me, and don't use cartridges at all. You have to keep the atomizer wet, otherwise it will get too hot and stop working. If you think about it, the liquid in your cartridge wicks down to the bridge so you can vape it, so putting a couple of drops on there isn't any different.

You're on the right track. Welcome to the wonderful world of vaping and ECF.

If you want to refill your cartridges (the white fiber stuff), here is a little illustrated technique I have found that works for me.

I also have a drip tip (replaces the cart and filler and plugs directly into the 510 atomizer on your 510 battery) if you decide to drip like the other replies to your thread have suggested.

thanks alot for the reassurance,its a manual(push button)., its strange that the totally wicked video did not mention anything about adding liquid inside the atomizer, when you say you 'drip' and dont use a cartridge, isnt the cartridge the mouthpiece? How do you vape without it?

Take cart off --drip few drops in atty--put cart back on--vape.
OR with a "DRIP TIP"--just drip in hole in end.
