do you have to use blank cartridges to put liquid in or can you put them in used ones?

i currently have 50 of these
5 Cartridges - Smart Smoker UK | Smart Smoker UK

and they have nicotene and substance in them, im just wondering though when these run out can you refil them or would you need a fresh cartridge for every time you want to put in your own liquid?

I have no idea what type of battery that is and it doesn't say on the website.

Are you in love with this pv? I'm not going to criticize it, I know nothing about it, but if you get one of the better known pv's like the 510, KR808, 901, you have a much easier time finding accessories for it. If you do like it and want to keep it, I'm sure someone will know about how to refill it. Dormouse may know. If your not in love with it, they do accept returns and Liberty Flight has some good ego, 510, 901 kits that are much easier to refill and find parts for.

Wow, I've never seen anything that looks like those! do you put your mouth on the rounded end? And then push the other end onto an atomizer? Is it part of a 2 piece ecig or a 3 piece ecig? (just trying to figure things out here) If it is a part of a 3 piece kit and you push it onto an atomizer then I'm pretty sure it can be refilled. Can you take a picture of what the open end looks like up close and post it here? We've got to have some answers before we can answer your question, lol.

This is all relevant only if it is some normal kind of ecigarette that at some point had liquid in stuffing...

If you can see stuffing and it actually had liquid in it, you should be able to add some. However, you probably have auto batteries (no button with an open hole in the threaded end of the battery) so be careful not to use too much.

Cartridges that go onto an atomizer - you can reuse them but you can't reuse them indefinitely unless you clean and/or restuff them. And atomizers should be kept clean.

Cartomizers that hold juice and screw right onto the battery - if you haven't singed them by running them dry, and you can see the stuffing, you can add juice. Be super careful if you have auto batteries because if a carto leaks it will do so right over that hole in the end of your battery. Good cartomizers may work for a week if kept damp. Crappy cartomizers may be awful as soon as the first refill. I use thin juices in cartomizers (juices with 20% or less VG) to get good carto life.

If you get juice inside an auto battery you are likely to damage or kill it. Ditto for manual batteries that still have an open hole but it's harder to damage/kill them. Manual batteries with a totally sealed threaded end are very resistant to being damaged by juice leaks.

I looked at that site before and did not understand the look of the carts or cartos (I'd have to look again to see what they are). They look bullet shaped.

Here they sell an atomizer
http://www.smartsmoker.co.uk/products/Spare-Atomiser-for-Smart-Smoker-Electronic-Cigarette.html

So I think they are selling cartridges. Maybe the bullet shape is some kind of cover/packaging on each cart?

If you do have an atomizer and the cart pushes on OVER the atomizer... then your juice cup is probably tiny and recessed (the annoying kind). If that is the case, take a used cart and stick an unbent small paperclip in the mouth hole and see if you can push up the little juice cup for filling.
