Best way to prime a cartomizer

[kiwisoop]

I want to use the cartomizer that came with my K101, but I don't think I am priming it right. I tried dripping juice onto the wicking material and letting it sit for a while then adding some more juice, but I'm only getting good flavor for the first few drags then the wick material dries out. What is the best way to prime a carto? I'm not using a carto tank, just the carto.

There are a few different ways - you have to decide which you like best. I like the "drip and flick" - dripping 3-4 drops and flicking the carto down like a thermometer. Continue to do that until it won't hold anymore (you should be able to see a teeny bit coming out of the connection end) and you're good to go.

You can also Google the "Condom method" or use a syringe.

BTW - it sounds like you're probably not getting the filler down at the bottom wet enough. Since the coil is at the bottom of the carto, you have to force the liquid down as you fill.

Using a tank or not, it doesn't matter. The cartos are still primed the same.

Use a condom.

Thanks, I'm going to try the drip and flick method
