When using a syringe I first pull the plunger completely out and then smear a little juice on the rubber partn(just to lube it), then I simply squirt my juice into the open end of the syringe (keeping the needle on the other end) then insert the plunger. Insert the needle to the bottom of the carto and squeeze in a little juice, rotate the carto a little and squeeze a little more juice, then only insert the syringe about half way into the carto and inject juice rotating it same as before. When it starts to get full you will see it start to saturate the wicking material. I then top it off by dripping juice directly in the top. If the little tube in the middle of the carto gets juice in it I stick a straight pin into the tube from both ends to unclog it. You can slide the straight pin in and out of the tube and wipe off the excess juice and your carto will stop gurgling. After I fill a carto using a syringe from then on I just drip juice directly from the bottle into the top of the carto to top it off, so I only use the syringe on the very first filling. When filling cartos this way you start vaping immediately because the carto is saturated throughly from the bottom up. This is a very easy process and the only other thing you have to do is rinse the syringe with hot tap water.

I put the needle between the filler and the edge of the carto. I slowly plunge liquid into it. I then go to the other side of the carto and do the same. Slowly raise the needle out as you plunge gently, when the top of the carto is juicy, your ready to vape.
Its fast and simple. But dont do it in public. People will jump to conclusions! lol.

1) I recommend BLOOG cartomizers (NOT crappy Boge) for the 808d
2) I did condom method and got tired of it
3) Johnson creek has a $3 plastic needle
4) Fill 1 mil, slide down side of filler then empty liquid--top may not be saturatued but thats okay as its a horizontal coil on the bottom
5) Blow out hole gently several times
6) To re-fill use .5ml or so...
7) I used to refill by dropping 6 or so but realized a really full carto has a better vape...

Just line up like 10-15 cartos and fill them all at once with a hypo... Bloog can be vaped asap...
Condom method was neat but a plastic hypo and BLOOG cartos is the wtg...

I use dual coils which do not have a coil near the bottom.
I get away w/ drip filling.
If carto has coil on bottom like yours it makes sense to use another method to make sure liquid is all the way down there.

Great! I just took delivery of some XL and XXL dual coil cartos and I was wondering how to fill them efficiently.. might give this technique a try! :)
