Cartomizer Shelf-life

[RanVapor]

So much to learn...a quick question:

I have learned that eliquid shelf-life is 1-3 years, or so, if stored properly in a cool, dark place.

Does anyone know what the storage life of a cartomizer is? Prefilled or refilled, stored properly with both rubber ends kept on?

Just looking ahead to the times when I have so much on hand that it will take a while to vape through

I was wondering this as well. I would like to buy a bunch of cartomizers at once so I only have to order maybe once a month, maybe twice.

I've also really wondered about WHERE people are storing their cartomizers. I know people are keeping the plastic caps on them, but do you have a special place you store them? I always kept my analogs in the freezer, just a habit, so was just wondering what special contraptions people had for their carts.

I was thinking about using a spare storage container that I have in the kitchen. You know, the ones that have a super seal to store sugar, flour, or pasta in. That way, they would stay "fresh" and also out of my nephew's reach, whom I babysit a lot.

Where do you store your "stash"?

I would think that the cartos should have the same "shelf" life as the juice. Greencig cartos show the date of mfg. on the pack and are suppose to have a 1 year shelf life. I store my spare cartos and juice in an airtite container in the frige.

i've heard 1-2 years (filled). the only issue with cartos is the internal wire, which can oxidize eventually, but someone with more knowledge than me would have to outline the conditions under which that takes place.

I have four sons, so this has been a tricky one for me. Not with carts so much, but with bottles of juice.

I'm still working this out. I bought a makeup bag that's large enough to keep day-to-day stuff in: carts and/or cartos, small bottles of juice, extra atties, etc. I locked it by using a very small padlock through the holes on the two zipper pulls. As I stock up on larger bottles of juice, I'm going to get something more secure that I can keep locked and in my nightstand.
