Hey everyone. I have my fair share of different cartomizer-tank mods as I'm sure lots of people do. I've found myself using the smaller-cheaper tank systems exclusively with boge cartomizers.
I have a BUNCH of different Mom and Pop Mini-Sub Tanks that I use with a variety of my favorite on/off flavors.
I use my Stainless Steel Lil' Mama tank with my everyday juice.
I've experimented with a lot of different tricks trying to keep these cartomizers as WET as possible all the time, however, am still searching for some tips.
I've tried punching a variety of hole sizes, as well as different numbers of holes. Regardless of what I do, it seems that the tank-system is so tightly-sealed, that there is barely ANY draw through the holes of the cartomizer.
Now, I have discovered some techniques that will completely FILL / FLOOD (not over-flood, but REALLY WET) a cartomizer within a tank immediately. For example, if it seems like the cartomizer is dry at the top, rather than dropping a couple of drops of juice, I'll pull out the top-cap / grommet out of the tank, and than push it back in. It seems that this forceful motion ALWAYS pushes liquid through the holes of the cartomizer.
For tanks that have fill-ports, I've noticed that by unplugging the screw, putting my finger over the cartomizer threaded-end, and inhaling super hard draws juice through the tank and into the cartomizer.
However, whatever I do, it dosen't ever seem to last. Later in the day (Even if i don't vape much), from what I can see, the cartomizer has dried once again at the top.
I'm really OCD about my cartromizers, and I won't vape them unless the top is at least a little wet / slushy looking.
ANYWAY... what I wanted to see was if anybody else has experienced this, or if anyone uses any similar methods to quickly fill one of their cartomizers from their surrounding-tank system.
Also, am I simply being paranoid? Even though the TOP of a cartomizer appears dry, is the filler surrounding the heating coil still wet?
ps. This is another random observation, but has anybody noticed that some boge cartomizers become unaligned? meaning somehow the fibers / coil cover the hole almost completely? this drives me CRAZY. I do use paperclips to clean out the cartomizer-hole when it floods, but I don't think I've ever caught the filler or anything.
