Hello I have just submitted my purchase for my 510 with PCC!!! I'm on my way to quitting analogs! HORAY!

So back to reality. I want to use 510 Mega Cartomizers since they seem convenient in my fast past always moving around life. What I am wondering is what is the average price for these and what else would I need in order to utilize 510 mega cartomizers?

If you have been down this road of testing out these things and finding the best price for them please let me know so I can follow the right path without to much frustration. I don't have a lot of money so its important I get the best price.

Thanks,
Soundwave

Now these are the ones everyone is raving about correct? They have some sort of filter in it that holds more liquid and prevents leaking?

What kind of dripper do you use and where did you buy it? I don't have one to assist in easy refilling which I will need working at a hospital I don't have a whole lot of time to sit and play with aiming. lol

The easiest way to fill a cartomizer is the 'condom refill method'. Yes, I know. It SOUNDS bad, but it's really not..

When you get the carto's, both ends will have a little plastic 'condom' on the ends. Take it off, fill the little condom with liquid and slowly press the carto down. Viola! Filled up!

You DO have to be CAREFUL with cartomizers though, they CAN burn the filler. At the FIRST sign of a drop in vapor and flavor, fill er up!

Good luck and welcome to ECF!!

You have a lot of options. More suppliers are carrying them every day. There are basically 2 varieties in terms of the mouthpiece (the atomizer part is the same)

Soft tip that can be flicked off with a fingernail -- Nhaler, Vapor Kings, Clouds of Vapor, ElectroNicStix, Liquid Xress, Mad Vapes, Cig Easy and Cig Techs all carry those. If you want to use a different mouthpiece, those are easiest (but I find the tip falls off while you are trying to fill it with the condom method.)

Hard, glued in tip is best for the condom refill but it is hard to get the white thing completely off if you want it that way. EastMall is, by far, the cheapest for these ($4 for 5) but they and Health Cabin are both in China so it can take a week or so to receive them. Lite Cig USA ordered the soft ones and received the hard ones so they're on sale.

Rocky Mountain Vapor and Word Up ecig both carry big 510 cartos but I don't know what type.

Some of the above carry both blanks and pre-filled. Diet Smokes and E Smoker Online only have prefilled.

And I've only checked about half the vendors on my list.

kinda an old thread to be posting this in, but on the 510 cartos, which end do you prefer for the condom refill? i've tried both ends, and haven't had much success. i think i may be pushing down too fast? i keep getting juice coming out of the condom instead of going up inside the carto >.< any thoughts?

I have had the issue with the vacuum of pulling the carto out of the condom causes some liquid to stay in the condom...also, most of my cartos are coming in with the spike (plug) in both endcaps. I found an easy solution though, slowly squeeze the condom cap so that only one drop at a time is dripped into the battery end of the carto, when it's all done, cover both ends of the carto with a tissue, shake it real well to disperse the juice, cover the battery end with a tissue, and blow into the mouth end to make sure you haven't overfilled, and you're good to go!
