Kamry x8 cartomizer help!!

[TheReign]

i have no idea whats going on with this damn thing. i can't pull the carto out.. it's like red locktite holding it in there. and the damn thing is soooooo flooded. i can barely get any air through when i try to take a draw out of it.

anyone got any suggestions? im thinking about throwing it away if anything.. any help?

Silly question,,,,,did you loosen the knob at the bottom of thae tank??? This locks the carto in the tank.

So, what is stuck? The original Carto that comes with it?

I find the simplest way to do this(still difficult) is:
Remove Drip tip
Carefully pry top section up separating from Tank and remove.(fingernails help)
Remove any remaining e-liquid from tank.
Wiggle and separate Tank from Base section and set aside.
Flip carto, drip tip end down on a folded paper towel on a hard surface.(carto shell should be wet with e-liquid)
Press Base toward surface and remove - if stuck, let soak in a cup of boiled water for a few minutes and try again.

Make sure o-rings are wet with e-liquid before installing a new Carto.

I have (2) x8 tanks running Killer 705 inserts and they are fantastic low cost machines.


*NOTE: Factory Carto is Junk - Ony use Smok, Boge or any quality brand replacement.
I only use Bogs in most tanks, Except my X8's

another reason why i dont like cartos lol. maybe it's just a bad one out of the bunch. i have a smoktech dct carto and it functions fine. it's just a hit or miss it seems with me

Soak it in the Hot water.

Steel/Plastic/Rubber - all expand at different rates. It will separate.
