"Condom" method for filling Carto's - Pro or Con

[FAAmecanic]

Hey all,

After reading around and watching some vids on Youtube about the condom method...I see some say this is the next best thing to sliced bread, and others say its horrible and ruins Cartos.

So Im curious as to everyones take on this.... does this method ruin Cartos? Do you do it from the battery end or vaping end (I have seen both)?

Me personally so far...I dont see dripping the ejuice into the cartos as a big deal...

Thanks in advance

I drip as much as possible into the carto, while it has a condom on the bottom. When it doesn't absorb anymore e-liquid I shake it like a thermometer. Continue until absolutely full. Works every time.

I don't see the harm in it... Just make sure to dab the excess out onto a paper towel or something to avoid flooding. The benefit that I see to it is simply that it's faster than dripping into it.

...tis what I do most of the time...remember, even when condom filling, a properly filled carto will have a slushy look to the top of the filler...if it's not slushy looking add additional drops until it is........

I use the condom method and top it with dripping. I will say that I started having less time with my carts now that I use the condom method, I just realized while writing this. Not sure if I just had bad carts or if it is the condom method. Never realized this could be why.

I have used the syringe method, which I am in favor of more and more.

I like the condom method best. I've tried syringe, and it has to be rinsed out. Nothing to clean with the condom method. Dripping takes too long.
