I have the same issue and i can never seem to get more than 5 or six drops into the cart with the ptb...and I rolling too tightly? If I am then the ones I roll loosely leak all over the place....I must be doing something wrong...they work really well when they work.

you do have to experiment on the PTB's to find just the right amount and how to roll/plug/shred. i have been doing it for 2 weeks now and just cant seem to find the right combo but like everyone says, it is better than polyfill.
i tried a thin sheet of Fluval wrapped in PTB and it was a huge NOGO! so far the best that i have come up with on my 401 is the half PTB folded in half with a single tiny fold along the top and shreded lower half with the shredded end in the cart first. i have seen that the liquid tends to stay in the folded parts and the shredded end keeps the folded end on the atty really well.

Just to confirm, you're doing this rolled (like the rho mod)? So you're taking half of the PTB, folding that in half with a tiny fold at the top, rolled and then shredded?

I tried his mod, but it was obviously way to big for the 401, so was wondering how to adjust it.

all i have is a 510 and some old blu carts. how do these compare with the 401 model?

i just did it on my 401, just to be sure, and yeah i used half a tea bag just like the Rho mod only i do a single fold at the top, but once its rolled i cut off a little less than a 1/4 of the bag and once its shredded i do trim the shredded end so that it will have about a mm sticking out so that it will have the springy effect and hug the atty on the folded end. i have been using it for more than a week and it works for me. it also works just as good if i put the shredded end on the atty as well. i am using my 401 because i just cant get the Rho mod to work on my 510 flat tips no matter what i do. that and i am tired of wasting so much PTB and just tired in general so until then.8-o
