Cartridge Capacity

[Nautiboy1279]

Hey guys, I was always a carto guy, but now that I picked up a variable voltage unit, I am loving these atomizers. But how often do you guys fill those cartridges? I feel like mine losses taste after 10 vapes or so. But the material in the cartridge will still seem wet. This is even with dripping directly onto the bridge before inserting the cart. Do I need to let it stood on end for gravity to maybe bring it down toward the mouth piece? I feel like for the 5 drips I put in there, I should be getting more out of it. Kind of confused with this. Can anyone shed some light onto the subject?

The cartridge may not really be full. Take a paperclip and stick it between teh side of the cart and the filler and move it up and down. This should allow you to get more juice into it. That being said, I used the carts for a while but I got realy tired of constnatly filling them. I would look for other alternatives that don't require constant filling like cartos or tanks. Just my opinion and I am sure there will be more.

Cartridge Mods
Welcome to the 'wonderful' world of cart mods. Carts are a pain if you don't have the perfect viscosity liquid. I have a few so I can use unmodded carts when I wish to. I'm too lazy to mod anymore, but the Highping mod was my favorite when modding.
You can also learn to just drip... which is what you are doing with the five drips anyway

greg, as stated in my original post, I was always a cartomizer guy. Though, there is a CLEAR difference between the taste in liquid in say a 510 chrome atty and a black wrapped 510 carto. The vapor production is good with both, but the taste with the cartos do not even contests.

See if dripping works better for you. If your topping off your cart that often your practically dripping anyhow. Its maddening when the gear gets finicky!

Just is killing me because I can't just start dripping at work as I work in a professional environment. Its a miracle nobody says anything with vapor flowing into the air from my office lol. Having my boss walk in to me dripping liquid in to what seems like a giant pipe would entail some explaining. I am going to try the suggestion of the paper clip pulling the batting up and down as maybe it is truly not even full. I am so bumbed that I got this damn strawberry cheese cake liquid from provape and it was down right disguesting. It doesn't even go well with anything to mix. How depressing.

If you're using LR atomizers, then carts aren't going to work that well. They just can't wick fast enough to keep the atty wet and you'll end up burning it out faster. It's better just to stick with cartos and drip.

I dripped on "smoke" breaks outside before I got my tank. I no longer vape indoors at my workplace considering how much juice I used to burn through.
