You don't know what quiet means? Most cartomizers make a loud sizzling gurgling noise when in use. I want a quiet one. The platinum k's hardly made any noise at all...
Had the same thought as @tj99959. Never used a carto that made noise- I didn't know any of them did.

I use this punch. Probably can't find them any more. Maybe try the Wanted to Buy in the classies for a punch and see what you come up with.

I have 12 brick of Boge cartos in the stash. ;) They have always been in the rotation ... always will be in the rotation.
I've always punched my own cartos, just use a saddle valve. (to cheap to pay extra for something that is so easy to do myself)

That's exactly what I use! Works like a champ! I've had it for about 2 years, punched or widened so many cartos I can't count, and the tip hasn't dulled in the slightest! In my IBTanked pic above the hole that's in the pic was made (widened an existing hole) by using the saddle valve! I always use the Smok 2 hole 2.0 ohm carts and always widen one hole for better juice feeding. Works amazingly well, and just a couple of bucks at Lowes!

The Smok ones I use are pretty loud and sizzly. Here's what I'm using right now. Don't mind the crumpled up blankie , I'm sick as a dog in my recliner!

"DIY" Carto Punch

They are selling the complete setup with an xtra screw somewheres still for 12.99.

Smok came out with their popular wingnut setup soon after I believe, and most of the old style ones were given up then.
Thank you. The links in that thread were 3 years old & some of them didn't work. I just went ahead and purchased a carto punch. Easier for me than shopping around for all the parts to DIY.

Ohhhhhhhhhhh that sound! That's not loud or noisy to me. I thought that's what all cartos sounded like. :lol:
Thanks for the quick vid. I'm sure some of us were thinking loud as in your could hear it across a room.
