Anyone ever used a precision oiler to fill carts?

I can't tell how big the tip is, but it looks like it might have potential. I like using a syringe, except it creeps me out to be seen in public with it. (I have no idea why, it just does.)

Has anyone tried this?

Yes. Someone had posted them on here somewhere and a link on where to get them on eBay. I have 1/2 ounce ones that hold about 15ml. They work very well. Many thanks to whomever found this first.

Whoops. Didn't click your link. That looks fancy. The ones I use are these:

I saw those on here a while back. If the tip of the precision one is small enough, it seems like it would be a lot neater and easier to use. Plus it has a clip and looks to be pen size.

nice find.
that would look uber cool with the GG.
i stick with the commonly used 3ml droppers.

I have one of those. Got it from Sears. I haven't used it. The tip is too big. It doesn't push the juice out. The button just releases a stopper at the end of the needle. The bottles with the needles look much better and from what I've read work well.

Sears has them. I will see if I can find one and report back

Ahh, thanks. You saved me a trip.

No problem also it is BIG. As long as an 801 and twice as big around. Might be ok for topping off a cart on top or dripping on the atomizer, but the bottles the juice come in work fine for that.

Thanks Elendil.

Ya thanks Elendil. I'm using syringes now, but that oiler looks alot more convenient.

wrong thread

I have both types of precision oiler mentioned here. I got the bottle ones from the same souce that Elendil linked to. (didn't see the link and found it by searching)

The "fancy one" posted here does not work. As stated, it doesn't push the liquid out in any way, just uses gravity. Our juice seems to be a bit too thick to feed via that method.

The bottle ones however work like a dream. I do think that I need to shorten the needle though. (I think this was mentioned elsewhere) Long needle is not really a problem, just a bit awkward carrying in a pocket.

Dumb question, but are the bottle ones actually sharp like a hypodermic needle? I don't know if it will work, but I want something that's blunt because I'm a weenie and I'm scared I'm going to accidentally poke myself with nic juice. I don't know what would happen, but I don't like the ideas I come up with! I worry every time I fill my carts....

 

[MidnighToker]

They are pretty fine, but not sharp like a needle. You'd have to push pretty damned hard to actually break skin.

Putting drops from a bottle is a little hard and clumsy and you have to watch every drop go in and not spill. I went to the pharmacy and asked for needles but they only sold them in 15 packs like for insulin. Really i don't need that many but they gave me droppers for free that are like a syringe but no needle or cap so those are pretty much usless.

And yeah pulling out a needle in public to fill your cart might make people freak out thinking you are doing ...... or something.

Then you would have to explain to them what this e-cig thingy is like talking to a caveman etc.

As far as the needle goes i'm sure it can be chopped real easy with a dremel tool to the length you need and sand and shape the tip and all that stuff.
