Carto help?

[LilOperaGirl]

Ok, so just got some carto's in, andI filled one up until liquid started seeping out of the bottom...but when I push the button on the battery, my carto pops and liquid comes out of the mouthpiece...

Am I doing something wrong? I feel like a ..... lol

You over filled it. Stick your mouth over the mouth piece end, paper towel under battery end and GENTLY blow the excess out. Making a T T sound helps. All this without the carto on the battery

Cartomizer? Or cart? After filling a cartomizer you cap the .... end, shake it down, blow through the top and wipe any excess off the .... end around the threads.

I think you filled too much.. Liquid shouldn't come out of the bottom. What kind of carto is it? Most cartos I've used take about 25 drops.

 

[beebopnjazz]

And close your eyes!!!! Nic in the eyes hurts!

 

[Lilacs212too]

Ohhh and when you finish blowing out, as mentioned above, be sure to clean the inside of your battery, because there's bound to be juice sitting in there.. won't be a good thing in the long run

Yea, found that out the hard way, popped right in my eye. They are 510 cartomizers from Liberty Flights. It keeps sizzling and popping. I'll try blowing it out and seeing if that helps.

And and and.....don't overfill next time, stop when its damp!

Haha I'm apparently a re-re today. And I was so excited for the new toys! Doh...

Been there done that- almost DAILY! LOL

The pop and fizzle is normal, means the thing is working right. It does seem to be a bit flooded if it's spitting at you. You can take the top out of the carto, leave it on your Riva, and just give it a good firm shake into the sink, will throw the little flood out and you can rinse it down the drain. Put your cap back on your carto (or drip tip) and vape.

Yeah, what she said . . . . that's what I've done

 

[zadane]

i suggest needle filling, only takes a few seconds. and if you overfill you can suck the juice back out with the needle

 

[LilOperaGirl]

Thank so much for the help everyone! I think I've got it now. I just don't seem to get a lot of flavor out of them....but maybe it's just me.

that's no good, try the dual coils or some LR cartos.

 

[LilOperaGirl]

Yea I ordered some of those dual ones, they were shipped this morning. Excited to try those, maybe it'll help. If not, then maybe LR's. Thanks so much for the suggestion.

 

[Sublimation]

What kind of PV are you using these on? If it's HV don't use LR cartos. I've also found that the higher the voltage, the more the cartos will pop and sizzle. Good luck.

It happens to all of us!

 

[LilOperaGirl]

Right now I'm using a Riva510. I also have 801 Batteries. I don't think it's HV...but again, I'm not really sure.

 

[quittin4mykids]

I just put a carto I filled last night on my riva and its nothing but burnt taste... I guess I let it run out- I dont know- but I guess this is another one I have fried. My day just keeps getting worse. LOL
