I recieved a shipment of juice yesterday with a higher nicotene (24mg) and then I filled some cartomizers with some of it using the condom method and the tara spin. One of them I really like but I don't like the cocoa one or a tobacco flaver that tastes sweet. they are from Freedom smoke usa. My question is that after trying it I must of got some of the nicotene on my lips cos it burned like crazy. After filling them is there a way of getting rid of the extra juice? I have heard blow the cartomizer out, but I'm not sure how to do that. Can anyone help? I am using the KR808D-1 Thanks to who ever can help me with this

If you have a syringe, you could try sucking some of the juice out, get as much as you can then add a different juice.

I never had luck washing cartos but it's worth a try I guess. They really are meant to be disposable. Sort of like a paper cup. If you're careful you can reuse it a bunch of times but you can't throw them in the dishwasher and expect them to look brand new. I either couldn't get them to dry completely and it was like vaping through a paper towel or they seemed too dry and wouldn't hold juice.

Some people have luck doing it so you can give it a shot.

I'm washing my KR808D-1 cartos as we speak. I'm soaking them in Vodka because you can't buy pure grain alcohol in the puritan state of Ohio. Then I'm going to run some very hot water through them and dry them in a toaster oven
After I wash the cartos I put them aside and don't try to use them for at least a week.
I've done this twice and haven't had any problems.

Yeah. Puff into the threaded end of the carto with the open end (open - the the cap off) into a tissue. Then use a folded tip of tissue to sop up any extra juice above the stuffing. If it is still too wet you can touch a pointed bit of tissue to the stuffing to sop some out. Cap. Then make double sure the threaded end is clean and dry.

And I do not recommend filling cartomizers with juice to figure out if you like a juice. Buy a standard resistance (not LR) DSE901 atomizer and 901 carts and you can try the juices without filling a whole cartomizer up. 901 will screw right on a KR808D-1. If you have manual batteries, buy a drip tip too and you can test them even easier by dripping.

Re FSUSA Cocoa - great mixing juice. It is almost bitter and can cut the sweetness of too-sweet tobacco and other juices.

If you need to get juice out of a carto, search Youtube for reverse taryn spin. I do not use the filling method shown in that video but I do use the reverse spin to get most of a juice out of a carto.

Excellent!

BTW, I did the exact same thing, or thought I did and they were yuck! I guess it wasn't exactly the same since mine didn't work and yours did.

I wouldn't use a washed cart for a juice I was trying for the first time.
I'm using the older, washed carts for the nasty 100% PG stuff I vape at work.
It has absolutely no flavor at all so the condition of the carts doesn't matter.
