New gear + questions

[White Peacock]

Hello all,

I've been without cigarettes for a 2-3 months now, vaping full time. I've been using the Mistic e-cigs, which they carry at Wal-Mart, and they're really quite good for what they do. I stopped buying their cartos several weeks ago and have been refilling all of the cartos that were spent. But I decided to move up to better gear, so I ordered the kGO from Dark City, along with some Boge LR 2.0 ohm artos, Smok Tech dual coil cartos and a couple of the E-Turbo atomizers.

I know that the E-Turbos can easily be filled by just dripping the juice in after taking off the drip tip. But my question is regarding the blank cartos I bought. With the Mistics, I refilled them by simply dripping juice onto the material, letting it become saturated, then dripping more until I was satisfied it was full enough. Is it ok to do the same with these blank cartos that I bought? I know lots of people use syringes, but is that necessary? Does it provide any benefits I can't live without, or is it just a matter of preference?

Thanks in advance!
Jeremy

Yes, you can fill the cartos you bought by dripping onto the filler material. Drip down the inside wall of the carto while rotating. Don't get any liquid in the center hole.

It's mostly a matter of preference, you can fill them using the condom method, a syringe or just drip like Bruiser said. A standard size carto will take around 20 to 25 drops depending on brand/filler material, some will take more, some less.
My method is dripping down the inside of the carto until the filling is uniform in color/wetnesss, if you have a light spot on the opposite side keep adding juice, if there is fluid sitting on top your overfull. If you overfill the carto you need to turn it around and gently blow into the threaded adapter to clear it out or your more than likely going to get a mouth full of juice from the first draw.
It takes some practice to know when you need more and when your going to get a "gurgle", but it just comes with time.
