    Fran not everyone likes them. Bovinia didn't have good luck with them. But 99% of the people do. Any carto doesn't like thick juice. I've had 4 of these for along time and I still got 3 left. They last me about 3 weeks each.

    Hey 5c. Long time no see. LOL Anyway I've filled 2 so far anf I'm liking them.

    Mike #2, just make sure you let them soak really well, especially the first fill. I DIY around 40 to 50% VG. VG doesn't wick as fast as PG so using it at higher voltages means we have to give it time to saturate very well.

    Thanks Bov! :) I'm pretty excited to give these things a try.

    Hahaha, You're gonna give these a try too PI? I ordered up a few myself... figure I have to give 'em a shot after everything I've read about them :) thinking I should get my infinity back just about the same time my stuff from Ikenvape rolls in!!

    Don't worry, Mike, I'm not abandoning you. I'm still a sniveling, dripping snob all the way; I'm just experimenting with these as an anti-dripping & driving option. The Clearomizers tasted like the bottom of a cat box.

    PI they don't like heavy VG juices unless you thin it, and you need to let them soak for half an hour or so after you fill them :) I don't use the condom fill method...I just pop the drip tip off and fill from the top. Drip about 10 drops around the edge as I rotate it, let that soak in, repeat until you have about 30 drops in there...give or take a few :)

    I've got a whole lotta 50/50 PureCig I was hoping to try. Too thick?

    Switched uses VG and he thins it with distilled water. He did a thread on VG and cartos.

    I didn't notice it at first but I've had a full one sitting here for awhile and tried it and I noticed the telltale taste of cat urine.

    I have a load of drip tips coming I hope he gets them w/o the tip, it's a lot of $ for something I don't really want. Last week I got some IKV mega 808's and condom filled one like I normally do and thought it was so-so. So yesterday I grabbed a new one and added 8 drops and waited a minute until I got almost 60 drops in and then let it sit about 20 minutes. I'm usually not that patient, it was recommended. OMG it's the best carto I've used to date. BTW I use 70/30 and no problems.

    I think that's the trick, to wait till it soaks in, like Bovinia said . That stuff gives me headaches plus it makes my juice taste weak. You VG vapers must not taste anything with those clear cartos. Because them clear cartos have the same affect on my juice, it weakens the flavor.
    I'm with you on the drip tips. I don't use them but I have enough to open a small store. They make a nice mouth piece though.

    I don't thin mine PI...but I think Switched just uses a few drops of DW, not enough to really thin the flavor.

    Switch posted that he uses 25% distilled water. Seems like a lot to me. I thin mine before I use it to mix but I do mine at around 15%. I find the viscosity very close to PG at that mixture and have no soaking problems. If I can get weeks of use out of a carto I guess it's not gunking up coils too bad either.
