No worries skydragon (love the handle btw) we are all here to help each other and if this helps you I'm glad!

Taryn,
It has helped. I am letting the cartos sit a little while but I got much more in them than usual. Now I am sitting here in the back room where my puter is, laughing my .... off because I know my neighbors can see into the window if they happen to look and I can just imagine them seeing me twirling this thing around and around and wondering what the heck is that woman doing now?

I am going to have to teach myself to use my left hand and arm as well or I will have lopsided muscles. :D

Show me state.
Well i do have to say, as a new to vaping person this handy-dandy trick saved a few cart's for me.
I had a few cart's that where new and where not filled as they should have been IMO.
20 drop's and a few spin's later and no burnt taste and a cooler cart.

I'm was a lightweight smoker so i kinda wondered why 24s didn't do the trick, but when i refilled, spun and vaped a bran-nue cart i can see this will be a cost savings for me at least.
(I read all 304 post's..and yes you foke's are crazy !! )

i just tried this trick tonight, however, i'm still super nervous on rinsing out the carto and drying it -- i'm still janty-headed in that you have to let it sit out for a full DAY, or blow dry it, among 3453 other steps.. and so i just refill over the flavor that was in it, fluff the batting, straighten the atomiser, etc.

the centrifuge-method is great! i didn't push to 30 drops, though, i think the most i put in one was still 18, but i'm not entirely sure (since i'm still new at gauging flavor/when it's dry) it was TOTALLY dry. it didn't look bone dry, but was not that glistening moist, either. still, i was able to vape right away without any gurgling or stuff getting on my lips. excellent technique and thank you for sharing it!

My Leafords Lanyard will be arriving soon so I'll switch to that bad boy!

Taryn, I'm thinking of trying this since I have a Leaford Lanyard, which seems perfectly suited for this. I feel silly for asking this in public, but I assume that attaching the carto to the battery (which would obviously be ideal for fitting into the Lanyard) would be a big no-no, as it would probably flood the battery, right? I assume I would simply have to wedge a plugged carto into the Lanyard by itself (mouth hole up)?

Thanks!

No, you don't want to put the carto on a battery first. That would almost guarantee screwing up an auto battery and would make a mess on a manual.

It works better with a plug, but no condom.

I tried out my lanyard for spinning, and it is too tight of a fit for the cartomizer with the condoms on. I haven't gotten quite brave enough to try it with just the .... plug in because I would hate to ruin my lanyard if it leaks. Sounds like you might have tried that already Pawpaw? Is it leak protected with just the .... plug?

Thanks guys. Yesterday I successfully capped both ends (condom & buttplug condom (I can't believe I'm using these terms :|)) and still managed to squeeze the carto into the lanyard, just like Leaford said... yes, it was tough to get out, but you can stick a pen or something into one of the decorative holes in the lanyard to give it a push. And it was real easy to give it the Taryn spin :).

And that was my very first refilling job ever! So easy!! Yayyyy!!! :D
