Carto tank: how much do you fill it?

[Rocketpunk]

I was super pleased with my blunt needle tip cap for my juice bottles when I got it. I allowed me to fill my carto tanks almost to the top. But then someone told me that ANOTHER vaper told him that filling a carto tank's tank all the way is actually detrimental to the juice flow/taste. Something about the juice getting hot at the top or something like that? He said "the other guy" said to only fill a carto tank half way.

Is this true, and does anyone else know what I'm talking about? Heard this before? I don't understand the logic of it.

I don't understand the logic of it either. Having said that, I ALWAYS fill only about 80% full. Leaving a small amount of air just seems to allow the tank and carto to work better from my personal experience. It probably has something to do with the pressure inside the tank, but I don't know how the amount of air in the tank affects the juice delivery to the carto.

I only fill about 30 to 40% full just in case I want to use the tank with a different carto and different juice in an hour or two.

You need more tanks.

I have a tank for each of my juice flavors. I don't even want to say how many I have It sure makes it easy and saves a lot of time to just switch out tanks to change flavors.

Even when I'm out-and-about, I have a tank or two with different flavors in a loose-fitting pocket. Or, carry them in a tank organizer like this. (The tools that come in the case actually come in handy.)

hell yeah. i'd love that thing. i'm looking for a couple cheap cases to organize my stuff.
i'm just starting to stretch my tanks and things like that. I was more focused on mods.
I'm still focused on mods. I'm going to order one more mod tonight I think
I need to get a few more rebuildables too. and a pipe mod.

THEN I'll start worrying about juices and tanks

I use a 6ml tank and fill it as much as possible. I prep my cartos either by the condom method or put it in dry and blow thru until some liquid comes out.

These are carto tanks. Clearo tanks seem to not want a full filling.

I fill my carto tanks fully as well. I use large carto tanks and filling them never restricts air flow. If a carto has bad air flow it's usually an issue with the carto. Either its flooded or the filler is clogging the hole and needs to be cleared. That's my experience anyway. I also recommend 3 hole cartos. I use Smok Tech LR 3 hole. Keeps my toots nice and moist!
