The E2 ceramic cartomizers.... Can you fill them without a syringe? All I've managed to do so far is make a mess trying to get juice down that stupid little blue adapter they package with them. There's gotta be a better way. Can I just walk into a medical supply store and buy syringes with real needles on them? Is there a way to get rid of the syringe altogether? I tried dripping in one.... all that did was run juice out the bottom. (Thankful for sealed connectors.) Any advice, tips or tricks would be helpful at this juncture.

Well, I have two types of E2's regulars and mega cartos. The 2nd cap on the megas pops right out. The ones in the regular cartos act like they are glued in. I can't get one out without shredding it and I'm afraid I might have damaged the ceramics in the process. I did get the mega cartos to work though and they are awesome.

the condom fill method doesn't work with these ceramic cartos?

No. If you use the condom fill method with these, half your juice will go straight through the cartomizer. There is a ceramic cup holding the coil in the middle that has a steel tube running through the middle. The juice goes down the sides and fills up the space under the cup. It is then drawn up by a threadlike wick to the coil.

The ce2 r4's are easy to fill using a syringe with 20/22 gage needle. I think the 18 gage that alot of online sites sell is really to big for doing the filling. First, remove the 2 rubber seals and place your needle in one of the small holes in the piece that holds the atty part. With the syringe plunger all the way down, pull it up to check the current level of juice in the carto(not needed to do on first fill). Then pull the plunger all the way out and put 1~1 1/2 ml in the syringe. put the plunger back in and use it to push the juice into the carto. Pull the needle back out, put any caps back in and vape. Simple, fast. If any juice start comming out while filling, just pull up on the syringe plunger to suckup the extra juice till it leaves the atty center.
