just a few tips that have been giving me more enjoyment from my stuff.

#1 - using a pen style tip on the end of my 4081 - Of course this only works for dripping since it is eliminating the cart but it seems to allow a much better draw than the tiny little opening in the 4081 blanks.

#2 - using a PCC with the 4081 - not much to say here. Take the 510 stuff out and fill the PCC with 4081 parts and the charger works great with the 4081 batteries.

#3 - using 901 carts with a 510 - a completely unused 901 cart is very tough to fit into a 510 atomizer but older used 901 carts that have been worn down a bit seem to fit very well and allow a whistle style tip on the 510.

#4 - using 510 carts with a 901 - Is it a surprise this tip follows #3? if you prefer a round tip instead of the whistle tip this is a good one. If you are using a 4075 atomizer you will need to pull the cart filler out by about a mm to make good contact with the wick. Considering how hard it is to get a 901 cart into a 510 atomizer I was surprised to find the fit works well in this case and the cart does not feel loose.

#5 - end caps suck - 4081, 901 and 510 carts all use an 'end cap' on their carts. These are little caps that are on the mouth side of the cart. They are intended to be retainers against liquid coming through the carts but IMHO they limit the air flow through the cart and make it harder to draw through. Use a paperclip in the hole of the cart and pop out the end cap for an easier draw. (note - this tip is not really good for factory carts as they are usually overfilled, only do this with a cart YOU have filled and made sure to fill properly with no pooling at the top of the cart)

Thats a few pretty simple tips that have helped me enjoy my e-cigs a little more and hopoefully something here can help someone else enjoy their e-cigs a little more too.

If anybody else has simple tips like this to share please feel free to post them here.
