Flavor changes

[thinkingaboutit]

I know I am not alone in having many flavors of juice...how do you change? Kill a carto and start fresh?

I have cartos, and a tank on the way for at home. As of now, I run a carto low then run a "combo"...which has actually not been bad. My starters complimented each other it seems. What about when I want to switch from bacon to pomegranate, etc? New cartos or tank for each? That seems excessive and I highly doubt it is normal.

Just FYI...no, I don't want a drip tip. I don't want the fuss right now.

I only run one flavor in a carto and usually throw them away after they have 30ml run through them. Some liquids I can get away with more (such as Extreme Ice from Mt. Baker Vapor) and some are done after 10-15ml if it's a thick, dark juice. I run cartos in tanks for about the same amount of time and just clean the tank when I swap flavors.

Cartos are disposable and cheap. I don't see the point in trying to switch flavors with one.

Another good point. I am too new to have "used up" anything. How will I know?

I am expecting to use cartos on the go, and clearomizers/tanks at home or in the car. What is a normal amount? Should I look at having around 15 cartos (gotta factor shipping time in...no gas stations to buy at) and a couple tanks cartos? I really don't mind as it seems my initial investment of $100 or so will last me way over twice that amount in cigs. It's not all about money for me...there isn't a tree in the back yard, but I am willing to invest in my future.

I try to always keep 30+ cartos on hand at any time. I also have several PVs that run at different voltages so I need to have the correct ones on hand for each one.

Looks like I need a better way to organize. You confirmed some thoughts

I usually have about 4 flavs filled at one time. Once a cart starts tasting nasty I stop topping it off and throw it in the dirty pile. Then I grab a new one or "clean" one and do a diffrent flav if I have one. I am cheap, so I do clean mt carts, even though I have yet to find a very effective method.

I found out within my first few days of vaping that I just can't handle the filler type cartos. It's good if you can since they are certainly the cheapest and easiest way to go. I went the clearo route. I'm pretty new to this, but I have 5 ce3's (syringe fill types) mine are the bottom coil phoenix, and 2 ce4's (stardust type) I am getting ready to try the vivi nova tank. 15.00 and 3.00 for replaceable heads. I mention this because you said you were thinking of clearos for home. Right now I can have 7 flavors loaded up, but changing flavors in most clearos is pretty easy. Really easy with phoenix and vivi nova types. Take the top or seal off, pour out the juice, rinse/dry burn if needed, fill back up with another juice.

I'm not sure what you mean about the fuss of a drip tip. Did you mean dripping on an atomizer perhaps? Most folks use drip tips just as a nicer mouthpiece for cartos and clearos.

I know there's a lot of hate on the eGo-C tank system, but I have to admit, this is one place I do like it. I have the original 5 that the kit came with, and bought 5 more. I can have all kinds of flavors loaded and ready. The "closure" end cap stays on pretty tight, even running around in my pockets at work. Change a tank, take a good long pull, and the old flavor is gone pretty quick. And they're easily washable. Rinse under hot water and let dry over night.

Skip the cartos and get a few stardusts. If you don't have enough to run one of each flavor just run it as close to empty as you can and rinse it out. Fill it up, hand full of drags to get the juice going and you're set.
