I started vaping V4L automatic and manual batteries about a 45 days ago and used the Taryn spin (good invention) and all of the techniques to fill my cartomizers . About two weeks later I bought a Duracig Ego XL (Janty copy) which uses cartridges and an atomizer and have tried the teabags and fluval fillers, all great, but while reading SCOTTYBALLS post on the ZFM Filler mod
http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/cartridge-mods/53487-zfm-zero-filler-mod.html
some of the V4L cartomizers were lying in front of me and they have the white silicone
insides on the mouth's side. See pic (don't know what it's called). So I used one of them (the one on the left gave me better results)

I filled an Ego XL cartridge without any filler with about 30 drops of juice......
and inserted the white (V4L) silicone piece to the the rim of the cartridge..........
No dripping when turned over or lying on it's side, just a hint of liquid at the hole.
I then stuck the cartridge into the atomizer, tight fit (have to help all the edges of the cart in, because the silicone thingy expands the rim of the cart).
I think the bridge of the atomizer forces the (V4L) silicone piece up further and creates some pressure inside the cartridge which helps it to drip and keep the bridge and atomizer wet.
I have vaped all the liquid out of some and others, when they do run dry and I know there is still liquid in I just flick them with my index finger or tap the battery end on something and they go.
I have used this method on three Ego XL Atomizers and on two of them it was very successful. The third was unsuccessful with either flooding or tooo dry.......play with it (I think it's because the bridge was shaped differently, I don't know).
If it runs too dry I have found that cutting a small x (same as ZFM Filler Mod in the hole helps)
Let me know if this works 4 u, or any improvements.

from flushing atties making huge carts with 901 battery tubes .. and turning 510/901 atties into sudo-cartomizers (a little cumbersome of a task though).... This seals the deal on me purchasing ego xl atties (currently love the ego xl cartos ) if this works for me as it does for you... you can bet I will make a video/thread confirming it and giving you the credit you deserve....
