Can you clean out a non empty cartomizer?

[Rich89]

I have just got a e-cig kit but I'm not liking the tabacco flavour that was selected. Can I just clean out one of the cartomizer s and fill it with another flavour? Or do I need to buy a blank cartomizer.

Thanks.

Its a pain, but can be done.

Yes, you can empty out one that is filled. There is a process that you can do called a reverse tyran (sp) spin. Once you have extracted the juice from the cartomizer, you should clean the cartridge to get the old flavor out. I will try and find the instructions on spinning and cleaning for you.

I use water to flush them a few times by blowing the water from the mouth piece to the connecter and then let them dry out over night. Refill and your good to go.

I've tried pbusardo's method succcessfully. As linked above: A PBusardo Tutorial - How I clean my Boge 510 LR Cartos - YouTube
They take longer than a day to dry properly though. More like 3 days.

You can dry them faster in the oven! About 170F for 20-30 minutes...turn off oven, leaving door closed with the cartos still inside on a cookie sheet. Let 'em stay in there for another 30 minutes or more. Remove from oven let cool and vape.

That's assuming you spun or blew the water out real good first. Will take a lot longer if you "bake" 'em dripping full of wet!

Hey, Rich. Nice to meet you man. I'm new to vaping so I can't say for sure. But as far as I know you can't clean out a pre-filled cartomizer. But it seems like you would be able to vape it until it's empty and then fill it with a different flavor. I'm sure the original flavor would linger for a few cycles but eventually then new flavor would over-power the old. Just a guess though. If you try it let me know how it turns out man! I'll be trying it too because my brother hooked me up with some cartomizers he bought and didn't like, and I would like to try and fill them with some different flavors without having to buy blank cartomizers when I already have like 10 free ones!
