carto mods?

[permafrying]

ive seen a bunch of stuff about cart mods and i was looking into the blue foam and was wondering if i could do this on a cartomizer too. maybe if i cut it out enough so it wasnt touching the center wick? or would it matter, kind of a dumb question but dont want to buy the stuff if its not going to work im on a really tight budget. also anything else that i could do to a carto i do have a couple i took the polyfill out of so im open to experiment if its cheap or just something i could have laying arround the house

lol its all good, did u try cleaning the cartos? i had some menthol cig2o carts thats tasted like caugh drops so i ran em under some hot tap water for awhile and blew as much of the water out as i could and let them sit and it completely got rid of the menthol. id recommend letting em sit for a couple days though i only let em sit overnight and there was still some water in em so i didnt get the full flavor of my e juice

You cannot change the stuffing in a cartomizer - there are wires and wicks and stuff in the stuffing. Some people mod clearomizers aka clear fluxomizers, the clear CE2 model cartos (see GotVapes.com).

For carts - precut blue foam for 510 see strictlyejuice.com. For other models - if smaller carts than 510 I recommend cutting down the 510 pieces. Else for 10x the cost buy the uncut at PetSmart in the aquarium dept: Marineland Rite Size U Foam Sleeve

when i took mine apart there wasnt any wiring or wicks in the polyfill itself just the wick down the middle

I came up with a centrifuge device to get almost all of the water out of the carto's. It works good but I still put them in the toaster oven for 40 min at 150* and let them sit a day.

Just attach to a drill and spin away.... (do it over the sink)

I take no responsibility for flying parts or lacerations.

(edit) I forgot to add.. I saw several posts about using the blue foam. A quick search should find all the info you need. I would assume that as long as you keep to the general size and shape of the poly fill you should be golden.

If you really want to do this, go digging around in the modders forum. There's a video in there where a woman rebuilds a carto. I found it interesting but, it looked like a heck of a lot of trouble for the cost of a carto.
