Do empty cartridges come with filling?

[ghost_inhale]

Hello, I have a quick question. I recently ordered "Joye510 Empty Cartridges pack of 5" from dietsmokes in anticipation of getting my 510 in a couple of days. My question: Do these empty carts come with polyfill or whatever the filling is inside of the carts or do I also have to purchase this material and stuff them myself. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE GUYS!

All the empties that I have ordered come with filling. I have ordered for the 510, M401 and KR808.... You should be fin.

Yes no doubt all empties come with filling.... the only ones that don't are the dummies that sometimes come with a new atty... so if you ever get an atty with a hollow mouth piece that is a dummy... alot of people use the dummies if they direct drip on the atty

OK PHEW! lol. I was a bit worried there for a sec. Thank you for the fast responses!

One more thing: what exactly is direct dripping? I think I have the general idea but it seems kinda silly. Is that where you just drip a few drops directly on the atomizer then put the cart back on and inhale? Do you get like 1 or 2 puffs then have to do it again? I'm just curious why some would do that as it seems like a lot of work.

yes you are right on how to drip 2-3drops is good for around 10 puffs or so depending how you vape.

it really isn't a pain to do once you find out how the carts work hehe, but I do it at home mostly because it is a pain to do out on the go

you get better vape and taste because you are guarenteed a wet atty.... once you get the hang of it you won't flood your atty and it will become second nature

 

[ghost_inhale]

Oh, OK. 10 puffs doesn't sound quite as pointless as my preconceived guess of 1-2 puffs =). And better vape and taste sound like good reasons to do it! Cool, can't wait to try it! Thanks for explaining it to me a bit further!

no problem I am glad to help

Is the filling in these new carts over stuffed though? It seems like I am topping off after every 10 puffs or so, then the filling looks bone dry again. But then I put a drop, maybe too, very rarely 3 or 4 and it pools up. My only guess is too much filling so it can't drain to the bottom or fill to the top.

Get yourself an small, skinny, eyedropper--slide it down the side of the cartridge and fill it up from the bottom/or middle. This will help stop and little white area (air pocket) from forming.

That air pocket also causes the polyfill from wicking properly. (it acts like a plug)

Lich - The poly filling can become saturated at the top and not wick well. It also can be too much polyfill (I still have a tendency to over stuff carts, what a PIA to do new filling!!).

When mine get like that, I pull out the filling and separate it back out (I use a sewing seam ripper, it is sharp and pulls through the filling great and has a cap or use a large needle or paper clip bent out to a wire).

If I feel like it is too much polyfill in the cart (usually me putting in too much), I'll cut a side off of it and fluff out. Usually works fine. I think most of us should probably put in clean polyfill more often, but then I'm lazy about it! ha.

Most factory stuffed carts are just right (it is a good thing to pull the dry stuffing out of one before filling, and take a good look at just how small a piece it is and cut lots of refilling replacements by eyeballing the size of it then they'll be ready to go when you need to have some!). I buy the roll of polyfill batting from a craft shop rather than the loose polyfill in a bag. Easy to cut new pieces then.

A small glass dropper can force liquid down into an air pocket. I purchased some small bottles in a shop locally that hold 1 dram and they are great. LorAnn extracts sells them for their extract products (and you can use the little glass bottles for juice when you are done with the flavoring). They're perfect!

You can also find them here 1 Dram Clear Glass Vial w/ Dropper - 1drm DROPPER

These small glass droppers also come in handy to suck the e-liquid out of the polyfill in a cart that needs to be refilled with new filling (just push all the polyfill down into the bottom of the cart with the tip and suck out the juice). Then you can just use the dropper to put the liquid back into a newly stuffed cart.
