I got the SI pro kit, and opted for the Mega v2 PCC charger. It stores 3 cartos, and has room to charge 1 battery and store 1 battery. With the sampler package i got, and filling 2 blanks with other juices, i'd really like to utilize 1 battery compartment for 2 of my refilled cartos. Problem is, they don't fit in the battery slot with the condom ends on. Is it ok or safe to store cartos with no ends on them, or am i stuck with only using the 3 carto slots for cartos? I'm new to this stuff, so i dunno if the juice will leak being on it's side with no ends, if after a day or so it'll start to evaporate from the carto being open on both ends, etc.

A+ on SI's product and customer service though. My wife has stolen my other battery today, gonna see if she can switch from analogs too. If so, i see another pro kit order in our near future :)

I'm too lazy to look for the post, but I know that SI just released carto cases. You can purchase them for something like .49c or get them free with the purchase of a certain amount of cartos. They hold 5 cartos I believe.

I would assume that it's best to keep the rubber booties on the cartos to prevent possible leakage and to help keep it from drying out too quickly. I had a carto leak one time. Not a lot, but I wouldn't have wanted it to leak into something like a PCC.

But anyway i had never a carto leak, i have around 40 right now tossed here and there some with rubber caps on them but many others without. I also keep them on my carying case mostly with caps on but i have 2-3 without caps. Never had any leakage or problems with vaping.
My experience as well, mostly only ever have one cap on at most and no leakage and days later I find a carto uncapped and it vapes fine.

I like to keep the rubber sleeves on my carts too, when not attached to a battery. Even attached to a battery, I like to keep one sleeve on the end so dust or other junk doesn't get into the core when I'm not using it.

I did have a cart leak in my pcc, it was an overfilled cart, and it had both end sleeves on it. Fortunately, it wasn't near the inner workings of the pcc and I cleaned it out thoroughly. Taught me to be more careful when refilling my carts, if nothing else.

And, I bought half a dozen of the new cart holders, they hold 5 carts with sleeves. I love them! Very compact and will hold the carts securely until they are ready to be used. I wish I had bought more, so more are on the list for my next order. I'll have one for each of my custom fill flavors, so I don't have to find a way to label the carts themselves, and others to hold prefills, and still others for the extras of experimenting. MUCH easier for organizing and keeping my carts at my fingertips, and beats the heck out of trying to reuse my package boxes over and over. The package boxes get munched up rather quickly when used all the time. And, these new cart holders fit in my jeans pockets very nicely, and nothing gets in to clog the carts or dirty them up.

Yes I would store with covers on for sure

Just wanted to clarify my statement, i DO keep one uncovered carto attached to my 65mm battery plus the other 3 which are sealed. I always make damn sure the uncovered one is not overfilled. Basically I blow in it and if nothing comes out the battery end and take a puff or too, them everything is fine...never had a leak.

I did add 2 of the carto cases to my last order, and they're great! Now i've got my eye on the Volt carrying case, the one that holds a USB charger, 4 cartos, and 4 batteries. Dang you Smokeless Image, why you gotta have so many cool accessories?! I really need that carrying case for fishing trips and nights out. Now that i've purchased 4 chargers, and will soon have 5 batteries, I think my analog-to-ecig cost savings ratio has shifted the wrong way ;)

at least we have priced them so they don't break the bank even though they are custom items ;) I get so mad when I see other vendors charging 3x the amount of money for something less cool :p
