Blanks smilar to Bloogs?

[zeromisfit999]

With all this new juice, and lack of blank cartos in stock, i'd like to pick up a set of blanks, maybe from another company (don't worry I'm still going to be loyal to bloog, just lack of stock at the moment) any cartomizers similar, that don't drain battery life moreso... I'm a noob to the whole battery/carto analysis lol

Check your PM's.

According to Red the blanks should be back in stock on Monday at Bloog.

 

[twoskinsoneman]

PM'd you also.

Well because it can be posted in this forum, the flavors are only $1 more per 5 pack than the blanks. Basically like buying blanks and getting a 5 ml bottle of juice for $1. Even if you don't like the juice you can spin it out and give it away. And because I saw your post about refilling spun cartos and still tasting them, squirting hot/boiling water through them with either a syringe (no needle, squirt through the rubber cap) or a turkey baster (through rubber cap, or use a small piece of tube or rubber grip from a pen as a baster/carto adapter). The most lingering bloog flavor I had was the mint, and about 5-10 squirts had it undetectable.

So you may have found similar, even cheaper blanks via PM, which I likely have tried as well, but considering you get 5 ml of bloog juice with their prefilled, IMHO the $ is pretty close.

What do you mean by "Spinning out the juice" I'm not sure how this can be done.

and the opposite of that is for filling, to force the juice down so you can add more without waiting for the first drops to soak up -- like to 10, spin, 10 more (or however many more it takes comfortably)

 

[honkytonkmn]

Well I'll be damned! Didn't think it'd come out that easy.

Problem I had doing that was the carto would get forced down into the condom, so it was swimming in juice. I cut a condom in half, tossing the closed end and keeping the 'ring'. Put that in the middle of the carto, then put another condom on. The ring stops it from going too far and there is room for the juice to pool.

thanks for that tip, starsong...I've been having the same problem of the carto sliding down.

I'll deff have to try this

Great idea... I tried a couple of things to stop the sliding (which didn't work too well)... but never thought of that.... thanks

 

[starsong]

Wish I could take credit for the idea, but I saw it mentioned somewhere. Sure works good tho.

I use the little velvet pouch they give you with the batteries, but I don't put the carto in the pouch. Just hold the carto with the condom part way on, place it on the outside of the pouch at the bottom, wrap the pouch around the carto and condom, and wrap a rubber band around the whole thing. Carto never slides, condom never slides, and I don't have to fish the carto in and out.

 

[shooter59]

Same problem...
Avoided that buy putting a small piece of paper towel in the condom.
Keeps the carto from sliding it too far, plus soaks up the juice as you go.
This method is only for juice you are replacing (some of this crap I have ordered is nasty) with something new to try or something you know you already like.
Just my

Ditto! That's the Tip O' the Week, for sure!!

Anyone know why leaford uses the condom method with the mouthpiece first? I've never tried it, but it seems like everywhere else they say to use the battery end.

 

[pmos69]

If you look at how a carto is built, it makes more sense to to it through the mouthpiece.

I was refilling my cartos and it does make more sense filling through the mouthpiece, spinning the liquid to the batter end and then filling more through the mouthpiece.
