Hey all;

So, I received my order of blanks the other day, ordered me 4 boxes of the Premium blanks I absolutely love, in black of course (looks so sexy against the chrome batts), and upon filling my second and third ones last night, I noticed something interesting: there appears to be a large difference in the amount of filler material between the carts. Is this a normal thing?

Example: The first batch of premiums I ever bought from V4L seem jussst right, each having the same amount of filler, and coming within 1-2mm from the point where the bottom of the little rubber plug should be when inserted. A day or so after I got my cartos, I got the bright idea to pop the top off of a watermelon carto that V4L threw in with an order, and there was MUCH MORE fill, I bet I got 25 drops into it on a refill! It even had more snap-n-pop! Well, until I beat the crap outta it with my high-VG CinnaBomb, anyways...

Anyways...The ones I filled last night...They had substantially less filler in them, and I was only able to fit *maybe* 14 drops into them without flooding. So, here's what I wanna know:

-Is it normal for all cartos to have drastic variations in filler amounts?

-Does this variation affect performance normally? (those low-filler cartos *really* had to be "broken-in"...Those two haven't started performing good until today, about 4 fills later. All my other cartos so far have started out being super-powered and taper off with time and usage)

-How much longer are the CoolCarts when compared to a Premium blank, millimeter-wise? I ask because I wanna know if/how I'm gonna get them to fit into my PCC slots. I just ordered a whole bunch of them (5 or 6 boxes, don't remember which) since V4L was outta black premo's. Worst case, I smell a PCC mod coming up! Go team Dremel tool! :D

-How is the vapor output experience with these, also compared to the V4L premiums, and even standards for that matter?

Thanks, and happy vaping everyone! :D

I've seen the same in some of my premo carts as well. Seems like the premium cartos vary sometimes, I'm guessing different batches ordered at different times on their end. I also ordered a few boxes of CoolCarts (hopefully get them in the next few days). I think I read the new WOW flavors come in the CoolCarts, someone correct me if I'm wrong. So maybe that will be the new standard once they start getting more WOW flavors on there.

You are wrong.:p Per Leaford:

No going back, Katya, always forward! :lol:

I worked with the hard cap manufacturer to improve their carts, with soft caps and more capacity. You can try them in the Premium Pink Lemonade, Green tea, Cognac, Margarita, Rum and Cola, and Irish Cream.

And, BTW, the cocktail flavors are all better than ever, because I gave them real samples to work from. My favorite is the Irish Cream
. :vapor: :drool:
