Well, while waiting for my ego+XLs to arrive tomorrow afternoon I've been playing with my 510 cartridges.
I've been watching all kinds of YouTubes on how to mod so while out grocery shopping today I stopped by the pet store and picked up some Marineland blue foam and some FLUVAL filter filler.
Blue foam wins. My first mods with the spring and FLUVAL weren't great, but then I had problems placing the spring. So I just put it up on end and created a FLUVAL plug. Great for about 3 draws then started sucking juice (ick).
So took out the blue foam and followed directions in videos. OK but still flooded the atty. So did one more cart only instead of cutting a slim piece I cut a square about .75" and rolled/folded it (almost a 3rds) and filled cartridge. It's amazing but the slim/thin (1/8" flat) cartridges hold a boat load of liquid (easily 18 drops). I added the juice a drop at a time - 18 drops - checked for holding - no drips from cartridge and began to vape.
WOW. No flooding tons of warm vapor. Taking 3 long drags before letting atty rest a minute...did this about 3 times and had too stop. For the first time since vaping I'd had too much. A little light headed a bit sick to my stomach. Yes! I can finally get enough nicotine from without chain-vaping. :vapor:

edit: "so while out grocery shopping" not "to while out grocery shopping"

Wow, thanks for the post. I just got an Ego, and I have been using a KR808. I'm really loving the mega cartomizers, but the carts have really been problematic. I'm accustomed to taking 3 big puffs in a row. I think that that is how I smoked. My KR8088 does not mind this a bit but I out run the wick on the atty with the carts. It's been driving me nuts. I will try the blue foam mod to see if it works better for me. I have tried slowing down with the carts, to no avail. I just get mad at the thing.
