Ok, I had the same question.
Check out GrannyM's answer in this thread:

I washed out about 5 today and refilled two to see if the 1-2 day is helpful. It would be because wet, your cartos can't hold as much of the new flavor/flavor is weak vs a blank/dry carto.
When I first got mine I was vaping non-stop and my cartos lasted less than hour. It says to take only 20-23 'puffs', put it down and wait 30 minutes. Had I done that with my first order, they would've lasted longer. And, I still don't have it under control but getting there, slowly.
I had posted a long time ago, imho, for people who have smoked completely out of stress, it's different/easy to get carried away and to use a stop watch w/ some type of sound on it. It's also easier to control with a manual vs automatic battery and breaks the hand part of the addiction. When I relapsed I kept looking for a button on my cheaters, lol - and I've only been at this for under a week!
You sound frustrated. NOTHING tastes as good as a brand new carto except maybe the other three that have 2 days to dry. This is my first time refilling a cleaned vs new carto so I wish I could help you more. - I think alot of this is trial and error and figuring out what works for you. Even the one I refilled while wet has been going for 5+ hours now on a fully charged battery. Could be your battery is starting to run low.
I am still reading a lot and watching a lot of vids and this is still hard but, you'll figure it out. Keep asking questions, was what I told. Everyone here is willing to help and I'd've otherwise given up on day 2 and not looked back. I told myself this would be the last company I tried. My nerves were just too shot.
Also, I didn't hear anything about a sale tomorrow? Where'd you read that?
If true, I have to go grab some mini cookies and start picking out my next stockers now cause the V4L website makes me so hungry!
Maybe someone with more experience can answer your question better. I haven't been here that long but imho it's either how much you vape, how long you let your carto dry or if you're vaping on a <1/2 charged battery. I freaked the first time my battery went out in the middle of vaping and could only use my PT but, that all got worked out.
Hang in there, Mabbo Squirrel! You'll get the answers you need and just don't try new things on a good carto - the one I took apart I already over vaped on and it wasn't usable anyway. (To me, they look big so I thought I had more than I do)
Hope this helps a little, anyway.
Ok, so I have a question.
I am new to this whole refilling thing, and have been using the condom refill with the spin. also have been cleaning the carts before i refill.
I notice that my refill carts do not last as long as a new prefilled cart. Is that normal? Do i need to wait a certain time after i refill before i can use the cart or can i vape away after refilling?
just need to know the details.
Thanks crew.
