this weekend i am stocking up on GO GO accessories.....
like i have said before, all i have is the 5 prefilled menthol gogo cartos...which i dont like the flavor of but TV AC of course overpowers them so i am happily vaping them and all i taste is AC....
my question is, since i had such bad luck with filling eGo cartomizers (for some reason i could never get them saturated inside), i was thinking of maybe ordering prefilled plain tobacco flavor gogo cartos and use those by topping off with AC or whatever flavor i like...this way, not only do i get full flavor for sure, i use less of my own precious juices (i am a very very heavy vaper and can go through bottles like crazy)......
i have had to use WAY WAY less juice doing it this way since i got my GOGO this past Saturday.
any thoughts?

I know my juice consumption went way down after I got my Go-go. I was going through about 5- 8 ml a day with the megat attys and that went down to about 4- 5ml a day. I haven't figured out exactly why but I have.

Now there is an Idea Texastumbleweed. If you are looking to save on juice that is one sure fire way of doing it. However if you want a more pure flavor of the juice you do have you can always get an order of empties and then from what I have found, just use a syringe and a luer lock blunt tip needle to drive it down to the bottom of the cart and slowly fill it that way, then you know for sure there is juice in the bottom by the coil. That is how I fill mine when I use an empty carto.

WHOA Did I ever find a wicked Lung Blasting Cartomizer Mod!! I took out the filler and removed the smaller inner filler piece and replaced it with fluval, wrapped it back up and put it in, dried it and then when I took a draw on it I thought my lungs were gonna burst LOL Holy Fog Machines Batman!!!.

Can you please give more detail on this? Am I reading that you remove the center "straw" that seems firmly attached to the cartomizer? Or are you removing the outer filler material (that has two layers).

Also, what are you replacing with the blue foam?

Thanks

Oh no, definitely do not remove the straw. Here is the method, but I used Fluval not blue foam, my next Mod is going to be with Blue Foam to see which works better:

Step One: Remove the filler from the cart and clean under running warm water until no scent from your juice is present.

Step Two: Clean out the empty cart under hot water until no scent from your juice is present.

Step three: Remove and discard the small thin piece of filler, (the one that is less transparent).

Step Four: Take a piece of fluval and cut it to the same size as the remaining filler piece.

Step Five: Put the fluval on top of the original filler anf get them both damp.

Step Six: Wrap around an empty Bic Pen tube and slide tube end over the center post in the cart.

Step Seven: Slowly work the new filler down the pen tube until it is all the way inside the cart.

Step Eight: Remove the pen tube slowly and then let the filler dry.

Step Nine: After dry adjust any unkempt ends in the cart with the pen tube until it is all below the level of the center post tube.

Finally: Fill with Juice, attach to Go Go Battery and enjoy :D

I think you guys just like to tinker.lol The best thing I like about the Go-Go is the cartomizer works great without any modifications. I don't even like to hassle with cleaning them. I got 10 days and 20 refills on my first cart before flavor decreased and needed cleaning and then started using two more alternating them and they are both going strong after 20 days. The first one that needed cleaning I just pulled out the filler and use it to drip and test juices and it is still working great. So in 33 days of vaping about 18 hrs a day, I am still using the three cartos I started with and have only cleaned one. So I will leave all the tinkering with you engineer type guys and enjoy my Go-Go as is and read about your adventures. I do enjoy reading about them as long as I don't have to do them.:vapor::)

the only minor issue i have is that one of the batteries i have to every now and then 'reset' the battery by twisting/rotating the button counter clockwise to get the battery to work. but this doesnt happen enough to make it annoying.

If you run it down until the battery flashes 15 times and then recharge it fully, the chip will reboot itself and these glitches usually go away.

LOL Yeah I think a tinker on the cart was about the only thing I can even think of messing with with my limited experience with these things. I do however have to get a Big Battery Mod for my new 306 LR atty, I got that strictly for dripping because at times I like to sit at home and just drip a little and the 510 atty just isn't cutting it for me for dripping. I also picked up a couple Boge 510 Carto's, I had to cut my liquid with about 5% distilled water in order for them to wick because my liquid is pretty thick but once it wicks they are pretty nice, no where near a Go Go but okay for my 510 batteries.

I ordered from a new supplier and the juice came in a dropper bottle. I really like filling the go-carts with them - 3 full viles seem to fill the carto perfectly and I don't have to count or waste juice. :)

Also, another bit of trivia; I bought a dollar jump rope at wallyworld. Wait, there's more. The top of the handle unscrews, my husband drilled a hole in the bottom and it works perfectly for dropping a go-cart in and doing the Taryn Spin for cleaning. Just thought I'd share. :)

Great idea - thanks for sharing. I've been trying to think of ways to make something for this very purpose.
