This is the best place I could think of to post this - please move to wherever you think best if need be.
I have been using and refilling cartomizers with various e-juices that are homemade, and from Drew at NHaler.
I have found out something important I think everyone should know about so you get the most out of your cartomizer... make sure you are using 'clean' juice is the best way I can think of to put it, or your draw becomes a bit more difficult, the cartomizer stops wicking properly, and you cannot vape more than once or twice before the cart gets super hot.
Ok now - Drew's stoof from NHaler - no problem. I have now refilled a cartomizer 8 times and it is still as tasty as the first time I popped it on my battery.
My stuff:
50/50 PG + VG, butter rum loranns. - No problems, but cart starts getting 'weird' after about 4 refills.
PG, Dist. Water, flavoring - No problems, 5 refills and counting.
VG, Dist. Water, flavoring - No problems, 5 refills and counting.
PG +VG, Vodka, flavoring - Started getting 'thick' draw around 4th refill and is not wicking properly.
I have 2 carts for each of the above mixtures. Both carts are reacting the same way in each scenario so I don't believe it is just the oddity of the cartomizer.
SO - in short: I believe that PG+VG mixtures, and probably if you were to use too much of say an oil base or what have you, since you are not changing out the filler material, etc. - The juice has everything to do with how well your cartomizer functions. So take this into consideration when refilling your carts and take all of this information for what it is worth.
Take care,

i wasn't sure if kr808d1/dpv9/etc. were the other only model for cartomizers other than the greencig or whatever its called...and yea, i heard the cartomizers atty's are much diff. than 3-piece models, if u can post a pic of the inside, that'd be great for those of us who only used 3-piece models before...let us know if u find a simple way to replace the filler...
