Thats the key to condom filling boges NOT RUSHING . I condom fill from the bottom also with the white cap off on the other end so i can see where the juice is at . I fill the condom with 35drops and slowly push it down .You will see at reach the top of the airtube about when you get half way down the condom .Then i go slow and keep the juice at the top of the airtube and it creeps down . By the time i got all 35 drops in the top area around the airtube is completely dry and no juice had flowed over the airtube .When i pull the condom off i put the last drop thats in there back onto the top and drip 4 more drops on the top .Then give it a thermometer shake and slight suck (Not blow ) into the top of the carto and your done with no a single drop of wasted juice or and mess to clean up or wipe off the carto .Airhole is also free of juice . When you suck not blow it doesnt leave the carto out the battery end where you need to wipe it up ,it just goes into the filler over the airtube .I dont even need a paper towel anymore

When i make holes for tanks i use two 1/16" drill holes .

All this Sucking & Blowing is getting confusing.
I'm not gonna admit to it. But, be careful sucking, you may get some juice on your tongue.

Nope never got juice in my mouth . Your lightly sucking just to free any juice in the airtube ,not sucking it into your mouth . No blowing at all . Best trick i have for filling boges . Its super simple to fill like i wrote . It just looks like a bunch of steps written down . Takes like 3min tops .

Well, I have gone through tons of Boge cartos, .....

.... If using them in tanks, consistent holes are very important, as well as priming the carto properly before vaping it in a tank.

Why do you consider priming before using in a tank so important? Do you find they flood, if you don't? Or they don't aborb properly from the tank if you don't? Really curious about this.

Try this filling method:
http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/general-e-smoking-discussion/200782-cartomizerfillinator.html

When it comes to filler based cartos it's saved me a bunch of time and headaches. It's been a serious game changer for me :)

1. No more sitting and dripping or injecting, fiddling with condom caps, waiting, and wondering if it's full.
2. The atomizer as well as any of the various fiber-socks gets well saturated.
3. It's really fast! One two three...you can fill a dozen in 30 seconds :)
4. More even wicking, as it insures any airy spaces in the filler are eliminated.
5. Better distribution of both 'thicker and thinner liquids'.

Iv used that method .I even have a special tubing/syringe setup for it however i still prefer to do it my way since its cleaner and not even a drop of juice get wasted .

I do use that method for cleaning cartos and attys .

I used Boge LRs for a long time. I just recently started using the resurectors (1.7 single coil) and the dual coils from CCV. The dual coils get super tight really fast. After only 3 to 5 ml the draw is almost unusable. Not sure why.

The resurectors were treating me really well at first but I've had issues with a few in a row now. It seems like if you over fill them they get clogged up some how. The weird thing is, when they are over full I get the taste of burning atty or filler as if it was dry. This has now happened on 4 of the 5 stainless resurectors I just got and the other one I just filled today so not sure if it will have the same issue.

Anyone have any advice about this?

What voltages are you vaping at ? I have the same problem with DCC's which is why i dont use them . I just got some ressur's to try . You may be getting burntness because they are a lot more powerful at 1.7 single than any DCC or boge . mainly meant to be vaped at 3.7v .Its probably so hot so fast it doesnt have time to wick the juice so it burns the filler dry around th coil before more juice even gets to the area . Thats why i stick to my boges . No probs with them everrrr .

I've noticed the same thing about the resurrectors. They're so susceptible to clogging it's not even funny. Happened to the first two I used, the third one I filled it, but didn't make sure it was super full (like I would with the boge, just wet across the surface). Vaped great all day. Went to go fill it, clogged again.

Feel like I should blow them out but I also don't wanna empty them.. huge waste of juice.

I have a feeling it's because of the huge size of the carto. I've had the same thing happen with the DCs I had. They were clear, and I learned something. The cartos don't wick evenly, especially with so much filler. When you start getting a dry taste, the top 3/4 will be moderately dry with a HUGE pool in the bottom.

When you fill it, juice pools on the bottom and the top will be completely dry. The filler isn't "sponge-like" in that it'll soak up until it's saturated.. more like it'll soak up liquid after it's sitting in a pool of it and hold it there (albeit somewhat poorly).

If that makes any sense. Not sure what to make of it, just an observation. I, personally, will steer clear from any "XL" or "mega" cartos from now on.

True fillinator would work . I have a pro fillinator too . Wouldnt a reverse tyrin spin send juice spraying everywhere lol. Iv never tried one . I usually stick with the thermo shaker

Reverse Taryn
Nah, you catch the liquid in a carto condom, ink pen cap, etc. There's a vidi somewhere on youtube showing some ways to do it.

I haven't had any problems with any resistant Boge and I've been using them for a year. Most of mine came from greenhouseone and vaporkings.

As for smoktechs, used a bunch of different resistances and not had any problems either. Pretty good carto's.
I've noticed that the boge 2.0 s I've been getting, the polyfill is more absorbent.. That pretty much tells me, it's off of a different line.. How is your polyfill?

I apologize if I missed it earlier..but I have a question.
When you're saying Ressurector -do you mean the Smok 1.7?

But what do you mean by the Boge? Which one?

When most people refer to Boges. They usually mean the Boge LR 2.0 ohm ones.

The resurrectors is what CCV/Crystal Clear Vaping calles the smoketech XL LR 1.7 ohm single coiled cartomizers. Most people call them resurrectors since CCV nicknamed them that. Since they are supposed to resurrect your ego batteries. Also, they are the reason why these cartos are so popular now at days.
