I just saw. I never do good in tie-breakers, LOL!

Well I'm rooting for you! Someone said he should have gone with whoever posted the correct guess first (which I believe was you), wish he would have done it that way. I hope you win! I think you get to pick whatever kind of tip you want out of the materials he currently has. (I think thats the prize anyway) Good luck!!

On the Ahlusion juices....the 48hrs cap off steep is complete....think I am good to dive into some of these, or should I still give more time? The juices are Mojito Cubano, Serious Cider, Melonade, Pink Label, and Caramel Black Tea

Yeah well, technically, I may have said the correct answer first, but the other poster (I think) guessed the correct material. I think the tie was probably due to that. Thanks for the good vibes.

So D25, how are you vaping? I mean, cartos, attys, CE2s, RBAs?

Primarily vaping on my Twist with vivi novas these days. Use cartos occasionally (mainly when out & about due to convenience, but not a fan of that filler taste) The vivi nova's have been the best option I have found for my setup so far.

Oh..and most of the juices I ordered were 70/30 PG/VG at 12mg, 2 were 50/50

Part of the reason I was asking is because when you have so many juices to try, I always wonder how people "try" them if they're not using attys. I mean, do you fill a carto and try it, then let it steep in a carto if it's not quite ready? If in a ViVi, do you fill it, and then let it sit, or empty it back out if it's not ready? Also, how many ViVis do you have? I guess they are cheap enough to have several, but I always really wonder these things when people have many juices to try.

Ah...well to "try" new juices, I do have a couple 306 attys, but I need new ones, they don't work well anymore, so those are in the bin with the other 5million "no longer in use" items. I found i really like the smoktech shorty cartos (the clear ones, tinted with color), you don't need to put much juice in them so they work well for me to try new juices. I typically wouldn't fill a vivi nova with a new juice....but I did with the melon-berry frost yesterday (since I couldn;t taste much anyway & was going for the breeze factor), and with the boba tea w honeydew last week due to my faith in all of you! LOL

SO to check out some of these that are still fairly new...I'd probably go with the shorty cartos

Okay. Those things do look pretty handy -- they're like atty cartos (cattys or attos) or something. :lol:

p.s. I imagine juices steep the same even if in an carto, correct? Seems plausible.

Yeah..they are awesome actually. And I really don't get much filler taste with them at all, probably because there isn't much filler there to taste. I use those when I travel a lot, since I usually just bring my mini battery, they are perfect for the mini. These are the ones I get (plus they look awesome on my blue mini battery with my teal & black stone drip tip) Super Shorty 1.7 Ohm 510 Blue Cartomizer

I've always wondered if juice actually steeps in a carto....I assume they would, don't really see why not, but can't say for sure. It's been a while since I have filled a regular sized carto with a new juice. With those super shortys...I really never end up leaving juice in them, even if I don't like it, because its so easy to vape through it and refill with something else I like.

This might be a dumb question..but I've never been a dripper, so I don't know much about it. I have some attys that came with cartridge/tank kits...can you drip directly on those attys? I'd assume so, right? Not really much different than those little tiny cartridge tanks dripping juice onto them?

The reverse Taryn Spin would clear a shorty out quick fast and in a hurry! As to the cartridge attys, I have never used one; as a matter of fact, I have never even seen one. Yeah, you probably can directly drip on those -- you actually can directly drip into a carto. It's called tail piping -- if you gently pull the stuffing out (after it starts tasting nasty) then just drip down onto the bottom coil. Of course that won't work with some of the DC and other vertical coils.

Every time I've tried that reverse Taryn Spin I've had cartos flying and bouncing off my walls. Clearly I am not doing something right there. LOL OH...and then I thought I should start doing it outside so I didn't break anything...again the thing went flying. A few days later my pool vacuum wasn't working...sure enough, there was that carto stuck in the wheels of the pool vac. Hahaha!

I never knew that witht he regular cartos! That's a great idea! And I don't have any DC or vertical coil cartos...but I have a plethora of used cartos that I should probably just do that with to try new juices. PROJECT TIME!! LOL

Thanks. I don't use cartos as much anymore but now when I do, I'll recycle them as "taste-testers" once the poly starts getting funky.

I used to use a lanyard (like those for backstage passes that have the metal clip) and I would clip the 510 connection and use a rubber band doubling it over itself until the carto and clip were super tight together (then maybe even adding tape). Then I would take a tall female rubber cap (never liked saying condoms) and I would tape that over the end of the mouth piece. After all that, go outside and spin as fast possible. All the juice will end up being transferred into the cap and any remainder left in the carto can be emptied by removing the taped rubber cap and twirling as fast as possible while letting little drops fly away.

I was emptying out cartos like crazy when I first discovered that.

It actually works fairly well, you just cant't drip too much. You may be surprised at how you are still able to get great flavor (even if just for two pulls per two drops). Technically, "tail piping" is not using a drip tip for atty or carto use (which is goofy) but I first learned about the atty-ized cartos referred to as tail piping.

Oh, lastly: Don't pull out the poly filler aggressively. You want to keep the silica(?) air tube covering still in the carto. I will see if I can find a video.

I had a friend empty some for me once I realized my Taryn Spin technique was not working at all! I was just tying a shoeleace around it, and apparently not hard enough! LOL (Oh...and I had that condom word too...where did that come from anyway??) LOL

I'm definitely going to try and make use of the old cartos for juice testing....love it! Thanks for the info!

This is for turning the carto into a drip style atty. Watch at the 5 minute mark for the filler pull out and again at the 11 minute mark for the drip instructions.

5 and 11 minute mark! What kind of freakishly long attention span do you think we have? How did you concentrate on one thing long...enough to even...know......
What were we talking about?

It's called leap frogging! :laugh: Why did he spend that much time on the simplest instructions? :facepalm: He seems cool enough though. :thumb:
