Thanks Lori, Great Vid. I have been playing around with the Greencig carts for a while now and this is the best mod so far.

My only problem is getting the Western tobacco taste out of them. I've washed out the carts and the atomizer itself but the taste still lingers on............

I'll eventually figure it out.

I added your video to my website under video tutorials.

I know what you mean about the taste in some of them. what i tried and it worked was took a 1/2 cap of vodka mixed it with water and put my finger on the battery end and poured the vodka in the cart. Shook it a lot then drained it. Then i rinsed it about 30 times abd ble wit out. smelled it and seemed the smell is gone. washed the white cart (the cart that holds the filler) inside with soap and rinsed that well too. The filler stuff i just rinsed with plain water a lot. soaking it then squeezing it out many times.
Thats it and the smell was gone. But is it worth it. to me if the other flavor sucked yeh it is. I was not sure if the vodka would ruin the wick thing. anyway i let it dry overnite and in the am i filled it with nhaler liquid and it vaped great. I was telling Lori i hated the western. hated it with a passion but now i actually like it. i emptyed a western cart today by vaping the dam thing. i know how can he vape the western. but i did.
cant compare it to the Drewbacco thats for sure but i do like it now. Now this is the way i do it with a regular greencig non modded cart. Now if you have a mod like Lori makes all you have to do is just pull the filler out and rinse that way and also 1/2 cap of vodka. rinse very well. i didnt rinse the filler with vodka just a lot of water. anyway hope this helps.
Loris mod idea is fantastic. i made 4 of them last nite and they are great and work great. what i am trying to figure out when you first put in the polyfill filler and you have to fill the cart. how many drops do you guys put in. Last nite i put in 12 drops for each gc cart. does anyone know the amound of drops max the gc cart will take without haveing problems like leaking or overflow etc> I dont want to take any chances of having liquid come out of the battery end.

Cos, you got it.. I think about 12 would be max, I have put more than this before and it came right out the battery end.. the Mod also works best with greencig filler, I tried the blue foam with htis and its too pourous and dripped right out also.. I am going to flip the greencig cart around tonight and poke a little bit bigger hole in the end (not cutting cap off and then using blue foam and see how this works out. Another thing to note.. china liquids or thin liquids from other vendors may not work with my mod as they wont hold as well as Drew's =)

Dont know how I missed that but Thank you!!!
You can easily clear out the taste like I did with the Western by dripping grain alchohol into the battery end or high proof vodka, taking a few mouth vapes.. no inhaling..LOL and then it should be burnt off! Did you wash that cart or at least let the filler or cartsit in warm water?
Cos:
be careful with the soap and make sure the is NO residue left in there from it.. the vodka should be enough.

ALSO... I just flipped the cart around and poked a bigger hole in it (3x the size it was) and then put cart back in opposite direction with the blue foam and WOW.. WOW..
Great plumes of VAPOR and throat hit.. I am very surprised.. lets see what happens as I keep on it! I will be vaping tomorrow and see how much longer and if holds more liquid or if flipping effects it...so far its awesome!!

Needvapor now your getting me all excited with the blue foam whatever. So now this will be Needvapor Mod 2. yes i know the gc filler is much better than the other filler. also like you said Drews liquid works very well with your mod method. i will never get China liquid again.
I am hooked on Drews now and there is no turning back. man i have to order 500 ml of Drewbacco 1. dam i cant get enough.
any let us and me know how your new thing is going. When i filled 4 gc carts last nite i took a few hits from each one right there. Man i couldnt even see myself in teh mirror there was so much vapor i had to keep waving it away. Man this is just getting better and better. Life is so good
Needvapor i blame you for getting me here lol. I told Drew that as well. anyway Thanks for all your help. Happy Vaping

wow what a great mod - no more pulling out the inner cart! this makes refilling these greencig cartos one step less tedious especially if your out and about.

by the way if you have a dremel like tool, you can also drill a larger hole (size of a single drop) into the back end of the inner cart and get the same results. kinda like dripping on the battery end, the juice gets sucked in and you get a pretty good idea of how full the cart may be. i usually drip about 15-20 drops this way.

i also wanted to add a simple method of getting that inner cart out. if you straighten out a portion of a paperclip and simply bend the end of the straightened out portion to create a tiny "L," you can hook the end of the inner cart through the existing gap (inner/outer casing gap) and simply pull the inner cart out. depending on the tolerances of the outer casing, sometimes pliers help in the pulling process. one of my most used home-made tools :)

now if i can get that kr808 adapter to work...

Flattyfour what KR808 adapter you talking about? Do you mean the adapter so you can use the greencig cartos on a KR808 D battery? I have 2 of these and they work great. but the best battery for the greencig cartos is the greencig batteries. They work the best. i use my Nhaler on everyything else but not on the greencig carts. I used to use the Xhaler set on 3.7 when using my greencig cartos. Hotter than that i burn them up. But on a regular greencig battery i get best flavor and pretty darn good vapor. There is a huge differenc ebetween the greencig batteries and the KR808 batteries when vaping a g c carto tahts for sure.
Happy Vaping

cos - yeah i liked the greencig bats too, they did seem to fire up the carto more consistantly. but i've killed 2 already and that random/sensitive firing kinda got to me. so i started investing in some kr808 manual bats.

yeah the kr808 adapters are just not working for me. i had one that worked for a bit and have realized that the manual batteries work so much better for me. bought a few more but no dice on these too. however out of frustration i recalled a member on here mentioning something about a paper clip mod. i now know for sure that paper clips are conductive. i bent a little "u" and placed it between the bat and carto - and back to business with them manuals~ paper clips rock lol

a happy vaper

Flattyfour good deal. Glad the paper clip mod worked for ya. yeh the gc cartos will work on the kr808 d batts if you back off a hair on the turn after its tight. but what you did is even better. Glad your a happy camper again. when ya get a chance let me know if you have trouble filling them. i use a hypo needle and it works great. i put 23 drops in from he battery end. This way i never have to take apart a gc catrto again. and when the cartos are not taking apart you get a much better running carto taht you can use over and over and over. im not saying the Greencig mod doesnt work it just didnt work for me. i actually have a few taht are taking apart that Lori (needvapor) taught me what to do but im missing something. and i have 2 greencig cartos with no inner cart and filling in them so i just Drip thru these and that is great too. Ok got to go to bed have to get up early and its 1 am here in Fl. Happy Vaping

What? You guys can't leave me hangin' like this! Work in the mornin be damned, I need resolution!

lol

So, clean the greencig cartos with vodka eh? Will everclear work or is that overkill? I assume I can just let the vodka evaporate? Is it safe to vape it dry, just not inhale?

Or wait, no.. Don't take em apart.. Use a hypodermic needle? What gauge? I think I have the right size, but I keep bumping that bundle of wires and can't seem to work around it..
