My refilling trick

[Haytoni]

How about making a sling for this technique?

Take an empty 10ml juice bottle and cut the neck off. Get a 3-foot length of cord or strong string, double it, place the bottle in the bend of the cord and hot-glue it or tape it in place. The cord should run across the bottom of the bottle and up the sides.

Place the carto in the bottle, hold the cord ends in your hand and spin it around your head, like David winding up for a shot at Goliath.

I have some nylon drawstring cord from a windbreaker, and I think I'll try this out.

Would think you would stay away from your computer and windows.

The above technique is great...but will not work with a 5mL bottle, just so everyone knows...it's neck is too small.

Hi everyone.

Brand new here and brand new VK owner. I've had my VK for less than a week now and I'm doing some research on a few things.

I like this idea of refilling, so thank you for posting it. Now all I need to do is make a bigger order to V4L so they will send me some of those little battery baggies. I asked for some in my previous order but wasn't sent any; guess my order wasn't big enough. LOL No biggie tho.

Boy am I glad I found this hilarious thread. It had me laughing for hours. I am new to all this stuff, and have been having trouble refilling my carts. Every time I refilled one it just leaked all over and did not give any vape, that is till now. After reading all the good spinning ideas I ran around the house and found an old syringe. I am a pet care technician and trainer, so me and the places I work for have a ton lying around. The one I found is just the right size to hold a cart in side of it after you pull out the plunger. Just pull out the plunger, drop a filled cart in (with condoms), put the plunger back into the syringe and push it down to the cart. Then tie on some string to the plunger end and spin away, works perfectly. Thank you so much for the ideas on this thread.

I use a sock. Works like a charm.

Thank you. I didn't think of using a sock.

Thank you for chiming in. Your post reminded me that I have a medicine spoon that came with a bulb syringe I bought from the baby section. I put the condoms on a carto to see if it would fit in the spoon easily and it does. All I need is some string now. LOL. Thank you so much everyone!

I filled my first carts yesterday and did the "Taryn Spin" using a sock. My husband thought I'd lost my mind! Ha!

I finally got around to trying this today.

My new method for refilling is the rubber cap method (CCFM), like so: YouTube - Refill Ecig Cartos Quick and Easy (CCFM)

I love this method! It's super-fast & easy (just like how I like my women ). The problem with it is that the carts seemed to only get about half full. The liquid starts to appear at the top hole (battery side), then I would stop and set the cart battery end down on a paper towel and let the liquid soak into the batting inside the cart.

With Taryn's method, when I see the liquid start to come out the top hole I stop, wipe off the ends, stick in a .... plug, and drop it into a battery bag. Grab the strings and spin it around for a few seconds, then take it out and repeat the filling method. I get at least twice as much juice by implementing Taryn's method. It's quick & easy and the carts are ready to vape... no waiting!

Thanks Taryn!

I would highly recommend you all to try the CCFM too. Works great for me!

Yeah, like you I fill from the mouth piece end, and only get a full cap of juice on an empty carto. But if you are at home, and just want to keep refilling the same juice, you can skip the spin cycle. If you want to get in as much as possible, the spin is good. I was not able to double the amount though even with a spin.

 

[Madame X]

I will definitely have to try this, thank you so much!

 

[Jm1010]

I think this is becoming the standard refill method!

I think this is becoming the standard refill method!

Yeah, the Taryn spin and the CCFM are pretty much acknowledged techniques.

I'm sold! I used it tonight and got 30 drops in the carto and thought I could get more but I stopped. Man, this is sweet vaping with a Geo and 808 cartos! Smooth as silk.

 

[jazzguy]

...vaping with a Geo...

Is it a Metro or a Tracker? My sister used to drive a Storm, but I never got a chance to vape with it.

 

[cricketgalco]

I tried using canned air, you know the type we use to clean our computers.It worked awesome, nor did it blow my cart to smitherines...

 

[bobtow]

I tried a different method. remove the cap and the plastic ring, put in the .... plug, and fill the carto to the brim. If the carto is dry it will suck up that first load in a few seconds. The I refill it to the brim again, and let it filter down. If it soaks up that load I pour more in and then I do the whirl-around with the battery bag. If there is some left over I just pour it back into the bottle. Put the ring back and the the cap and vape lightly till it sound normal.

 

[darrts]

I'm not sure if anyone has posted something similar (too many pages to check LOL) IBut I just found this tread and it's a GREAT method.. Thanks Taryn!

I DIDN'T have a battery bag so I poked around the house and found one of those fat topped pens. The cart fit PERFECTLY inside the cap...

I slid a new shoelace into the little clip that goes on your shirt pocket and tied the ends together.... I taped the end of the clip so when I spin it the shoelace won't slide under the clip... and it works GREAT!!


The plastic cap has a little weight to it so you even get a little WIRRRRRR sound when you spin ....


Then all you have to do tap the cart out of the cap (mine was a little snug once I twirled it traveled further to the bottom of the cap)

It works and it's cheap (dollar store pens) or free! I hope this helps...

God Bless....Frank

thanks taryn, i will have try it

 

[thebat1]

I will have to try this! Because of right now I suck at refilling! My refills last for about an hour or two when a brand new cart will last me almost all day! Ive heard a lot of people talk about rinsing the carts out and I tried it but how are you "blowing them out" Do you just put the battery end in your mouth and blow in it real hard? And do you have to wait at all for all the water to dry up until you add juice? I really need to get good at refilling so I can save some money!!

I did not read this whole post but I just had found out from another post that you put the clean cartos in a zip lock baggie full of RICE.. and it will fluff the cartos and dry them. I had tried blowing them out they were still wet a week later.. so that is what I am trying now.. wont work without a wait I am sure but hope it works for me...

putting on the condoms and .... plug,

Now I know what I did wrong! I was filling a carto the other night and thought I would try out the Taryn Spin. Put in a few drops, spin, put in a few drops, spin. I did this a few times. The last time I spun it the juice bypassed my glasses and went right in my eye,lol Wow, talk about burn,lol I should have put the .... plug on it. Another lesson learned,lol
