On my 901 the filler for the cartridges seems to disappear, especially when I use my passthrough. anyone else notice this? Is it melting?

Its probably melting on the atomizer...
it might affect the performance of the atomizer ...big time...

The 901 filter material often starts to curl up into more of a ball. All you have to do is remove one 'melting' filter and one newly opened filter, straighten out the material a bit on a paper towel, and compare. Your eyes are better than our guesses.
If you're not sure what's going on, post a photo and we'll take a look at it.
What ecig have you heard of that does this?
All carts apart from the top one have been used and apart from the second to last squeezed for juice. After a good many of vapes the filling seems to recess. I am worried that I am breathing in chemicals from the cart melting and that it may be more unhealthy than analogues. Does anyone have any info about this?
I could of course be wrong, but to me it simply looks like material being a bit compacted from liquid and use. If I understand your post correctly, your pics show us that your filter material expands back to near-normal size after you squeeze out the juice and let it sit awhile.
I although I feel sure 'some' little bits of cart fibre do get melted onto the coil ......I shouldn't think the Chinese make the fillings with any kind of mm like precision..so there is bound to be some quite large variations in the size of cart fillings.
Maybe i am being paranoid lol. I have a pen style on order with passthrough from bestecigs, apparently the atomizer does not get as hot. I just dont want to have gived up smoking only to have taken up something with dire health risks.
I do understand how you feel, I am a little paranoid about it myself...I don't worry too much about the vaporized juice...but for some reason I do worry quite a lot about the idea of inhaling 'any' burnt polyester type material. I suppose the tiny amounts couldn't possibly be worse than smoking tobacco but the worry is still there.
Looks like it just might need washed, dried, and filled up again. I'm still fairly new at this but after a week I noticed performance reducing. I took out the cart stuffing, washed it under very hot water in a small tea strainer, let it dry and it worked much better. Plus it looked new again. After so much liquid I thinks it gets gunky and compresses. Just my thoughts.
I might try dripping, I did not cause I did not want to damage my atomiser
Flooding your atomiser isn't really a problem, you can just drain it but getting liquid in the battery isn't good, that can kill them. The skill with dripping is to learn how to keep the atomiser not too wet or dry. It takes a bit of practice but I think it's better than cartridges once you get good at it.
Bad news, dripping appears to have killed my usb passthrough, maybe I went overboard. Am attempting to dry out on hot water cylinder. Luckily I have 5 batteries.

Kept same cart in for an extended period and noticed that the cart is melting. Topped up regulary.
This happened after using batteries for power.
