Cart filling question

[Darlene7]

When I fill my carts, should the filling be recessed in the cart or up very close to the top of the cart - trying to figure out best position for the cart filling after I have added juice to it or restuffed it. Thanks for any info

I like to keep it up towards the top. Once you push it onto your atomizer the mesh on the atomizer will push it down to the right height. If you keep it up at the top, you know for sure you are going to get a good connection between the two.

Yep, agreeing with SannerSays, especially on those like the 401s with an 'inner cart' that's not part of the mouthpiece, they can slid down too far slightly, so before I put the cart on, I push them up slightly from underneath with a tack, then let the atty position it where it 'wants it,' in good contact.

I know I've seen someone saying they trim the cart wick, but unless it's grossly past the cart end, I don't see the point - you *want* the cart wick to make good contact with the atty wick/bridge, or it's not going to perform well.

When I refill those types of cartridges, I push the "inner cart" up to the top to fill...then use the provided rubber stopper to push the "inner cart" back in. Using the stopper makes sure you don't push it too far into the mouthpiece.
