Holy crap. I finally get it.

I have been using a cartomizer and tank set up for a few weeks now and when they work right it's the best vape I have had in my very short career as a vaporizerer.

The part that was really taking the fun out of these devices was the act of priming. I was dripping and twrilling and twrilling and dripping and the occasional thermometer shake all the while trying to keep count of the drips. Oh the agony of it all.

The other day I found about the condom filling method. Fill the condom up, put the carto in it and squeeze. juice shoots up, squeeze a few more times and done. I have a new found love for a device that I was already very fond of.

Just saying......

Glad you found your happy place with cartos! It is funny how many different ways there are to prime them and it seems everyone has their own favorite way. I still prime with the thingy from Ibtanked and other than flooding a few times it gets the job done.

Great post. I truly think the secret to carto tanks is finding your favorite priming method. I tried them all and prefer the "thingy" method by far and now I can prime and fill a tank in under 5 minutes. Everybody has their favorite method! Vape on...

Going to try the 'thingy' method next. Hopefully the IBTanked method is even better still.

I am amazed how much better the vape is with a properly primed carto.

I'm in love with the "thingy"! It's wonderful and soooo easy, best cleanest way to prime a carto I know of!

drip and flick
drip and twirl
inverted drip and twirl
condom
thingy
syringe down the side wall
fill, primer puff and wait
dunk and puff
plunger

they all work. they don't all work for everybody. glad you've figured out something that works for you.

I tried using the thingy, but my attention span isn't long enough. This is what I do (or some variation of it, I'm always trying new things I read about).
