Does anyone else fill cartos this way?

[FantWriter]

I've found a way that's perfect for my use, but I'm wondering how far out of the mainstream it is.

I generally do a week's worth at a time, around 30 cartos.

I remove the white mouthpiece, insert the plug in the battery end and put on the condom. I then put them in a little stand I made for the purpose so they're standing open-end up, and fill 2/3 of them all the way to the top, going back and refilling them as necessary until they're all completely full.

Over the next half-hour, I top off any in which the level has dropped.

When I'm assured that they've absorbed as much as they can, I use a syringe with a blunt needle to remove the excess (sticking it down the hole to the coil, and then taking off any excess from the top so the filling looks a bit shy of being soggy), and use that juice to begin filling 2/3 of the rest.

While the second batch is sitting, I put the white plugs into the first batch, cap with a condom, and lay them on their side in a rack.

Repeat until they're all done.

This assures me that they have all the juice they can hold, I only have to mess with them about once a week, and the per-carto time is less than a minute (far faster than counting drops, doing the spin, etc.).

Does anyone else do it this way?
Does anyone have a better way?

Amazing how many people in the forum like to complicate the hell out of things. It must be a common charatistic of smokers

I place mine in an ammo holder (.44 mag) with the bottom condoms on. I drip 15 drops in each one and let them sit. Go back 30 minutes later, add the remainder until they are full.

Since I found out about this method I fill all my carts this way. Takes about 2 seconds. It works and it easy peasy.

Not switching flavors much, I use the same Ikenvape carto with a drip tip for at least a week, and I just put 6-8 drops in it every couple of hours.... much less hassle. But however you choose to do it is great!

I tried that. For me, it was a balancing act between not getting the carto completely full or drowning it. And then there was cleaning the juice out of the threads and off the outside of the carto, which takes time and wastes juice. It was just too slipshod, too messy, and too time-consuming for me.

this was my issue at first with carto's too ...

I don't set out 30 or so cartomizers at a time, I just go through 1 at a time and refill when needed. I refill then spin around with a ghetto rig I made. Plastic baggy with a wire ... haha ... it works! i put in 10 drops, spin for about 5 seconds, put another 10 drops in, spin for 5 seconds, another 10 drops or so, and I'm good to go!

I go through about 1 carto every 3-4 days

I would dearly love to know a way that's simple, gets them completely full, is fast, and that let's me do a batch of them at once so I don't have to mess with them several times a day.

Someone posted that they immersed them in a 10ml syringe.

sounds very efficient

I just grab a syringe...a hand full of cartos of which I've confirmed the coil still works...the mouth piece caps are gone since I use a drip tip anyways......bottom condoms on...

I Punch into the poly-fill from the top if they have any (I use lots of CE2 cartos...no polyfill) and flood the heck out of them from the bottom up. I've got an idea now how much they'll hold so it's fast and easy and the syringe makes it easy to draw back if I've obviously overwet it. I go on about my day and let them sit for a bit. Possibly top a little more and stick on a top condom.

Before I screw one on a battery I'll make sure the threads aren't loaded with juice and give it a good blow through from the battery end to make sure the atty coils aren't flooded.

It only takes a few seconds per carto...occasionally I do waste a drop or two of juice that drips out the bottom since I flood the heck out of them on loading...but I do know they're good and wet with no dry spots Sometimes I do have the atty a little too wet on the first few draws...I just vape through it or give the carto a good swift blow off the battery to clear it up.
