I Am New To Vaping - Starting With Metro Nicotek

[dt9312]

Hello everyone,
I am new to vaping. I just started the other day an so far like it. I am starting off with a Metro Nicotek and am going to be working my way up to better quality ones.

My biggest question is, I saw that someone has refilled their own cartridges for this brand of ecig. However I have been trying for a hour to get the cap off the cartridge. I would really love to refill it since it is $9.99 for 3 cartridges.

Any help or input would be extremely appreciated!

While I'm not terribly up to speed on these pre-packaged e-cigs, I would imagine that if you are unable to get the cap off of the mouth peice, you could drip it down through the hole in the battery connection end. this method works for the majority of cartomizers on the market. The website for Metro did not really provide a whole lot of information on the cartridge itself. If you could post photos of each end of the cartridge, it may be easier for folks to help determine the best method (if any) to refill them.

Thanks for your quick reply. Here are 2 pictures, I don't know how much they will help.

Take your hairdryer and heat up the cap end, then use a paper clip to pry it upward once it warms up, it will come right off, then buy a driptip so you can just drip in it to keep it wet. It looks like from the picture it is a KR8 or 901 type carto but I really cant tell the picture isnt good enough. If it is they sell these with soft caps that pop right off and arent glued on, just blank fill your owns. Ya might want to step up to something like and Ego Twist 1000mAh Battery and Boge Cartos, it would be a better unit for you a affordable one at that, get two of the Batts too so you always have one ready when one needs charging.

Thank you Jammin J and mwa102464. I will try the hairdryer. And yes, I plan on upgrading to a better unit. I just wanted to make sure I could do vaping over analogs, and so far i'm loving it!
