At first, I just kept a couple in rotation with a couple of juices and it was easy enough to sniff them to figure out which was which....now, I label my cartos -- bought a pk of tiny labels from the dollar store. This works well when I'm loaning out equipment to newbies and prefilling cartos for them to try out.

Suggestion - don't use cartos to test juices unless you have previously been successful at cleaning and drying one. I test juices by dripping on at atomizer with a manual battery. if you happen to have KR808D-1 (like Vapor4Life) you can use a standard resistance (not LR) DSE901 atomizer w/ no adapter, others with an adapter plus the drip tip or carts that go with that atty. Dripping is not recommended for auto batteries.

Re marking
map dots
labels
paint pens
colored orthodontics rubber band

I don't vape a whole lot of flavors at once so on my KR8 I use colors of Vapor4Life carto blanks and prefills. I know the white is vanilla, the black is my wowbacco, the reddish is the sour cherry, tan is caramel or butterscotch etc etc

On my 510 I use Boge and some map dots

I use small circular colored stickers.....put a colored sticker on the juice bottle and then put the same colored sticker on the filled carto.....

Good Idea, I'm going to have to try this out. I'm running these Royal Smokers CE2 XL Ceramic Clearomizers. For the most part its easy to see the color change, but I ordered some Boge Cartomizers, so these tips are going to help. Thanks guys!

All my cartos are black Go Go ones, so I label them on the side with a silver metallic sharpie close enough to the battery end that the labels are covered up by the cone when in use. When I used the kr808d, the cartos weren't really big enough for full labels, so I used to put dots on them with the same sharpies like one dot for DK-TAB, two for menthol and then dot the bottles too, but again they were black cartos.

As I just posted on another thread, I am a nail polish kind of sorter. In my experience, it holds pretty well to juice spillage and you have have an endless color combination :) If you do a decent job, everyone thinks that the stuff you marked came in that way :D
Sometimes women are priviledged. :) I personally use just plain white labels with my own codes.

I just bought a small plastic organizer in the tacklebox/fishing aisle at walmart. The little dividers can be moved around to make spaces as big or small as you want. Keep the carto's and juice bottles in the same spot together. Since my boyfriend is also dipping into this our system is this > if it's in the box w/ the flavor juice and the plastic sleeve is on - then it's fresh and ready to smoke, if the plastic sleeve is off then it needs to be refilled. So far it's working well!

Hey all. How do you keep your multiple flavors sorted / labelled?

I have 25 blank cartos here, and a shipment of flavors coming, but I'd like to have some idea on what I'm vaping. So how do *you* keep things organized?

I usually only keep 3 going at a time. Two I use with my cartos (fav flavors) I use a different colored drip tip on each. The third is for flavors I like but can't vape for a long time. I use an atty and a cartidge for that one. I'll eventually buy another drip tip in a 3rd color. I saw somewhere where you could buy a set of diff colored drip tips but I didn't mark it and haven't been able to find it again. :cry:

Here's what I do....down and dirty. 1 carto...put whatever you want in it. I'm not a "purist" who has to have a dedicated carto/atty for every flavor. It's all a part of my KISS (keep it simple stupid) approach to vaping. I don't care when flavors overlap, in fact it's kinda fun to use the same carto for different flavors and to taste the mingling (not sure if that is a real word or not) of flavors. Some have been really great(some just suck), but in the end I'm only dealing with 1 carto. Less to think about and haul around.

I have a sheet of little white paper labels that I write the name of the fluid on. I use an exacto knife to cut them into small strips that fit nicely between the carto caps. It gets kind of messy if I forget to take them off before cleaning the cartos though. The paper comes off and leaves the glue behind unless I remember to take them off beforehand.
