noob ?

whats the way you guys know its time to refill the carto?

 

[Taryn]

There is a change in taste, some call it marshmallowy I think it tastes a bit, umm..plastic like. When I first started I was extra cautious and did alot of topping off until I learned to tell when they were done, I didn't want to fry the cartos.

 

[crand]

In addition to the obvious of diminished vapor and taste you might notice the cart getting very hot when drawing.

 

[Taryn]

I'm not sure that crand is talking about the KR808D-1 carto there. If you vape until they get extra hot and have no vapor you will have fried it and it will not be refillable.

 

[crand]

Sorry Taryn, didn't mean to say that your comment was obvious, we must have responded at exactly the same time.
I agree, real hot or burnt taste... it's too late

 

[Taryn]

Oh I didn't take it that way at all crand! I just thought you might have been talking about carts instead of cartomizers if you use vapor production as your indicator. I just find if I you vape the cartomizer that long you are generally burning the batting inside.

Vapor goes up, flavor goes way down. That's my indicator for "time to refill"

 

[schwags]

ty very much... its time to refill!!!

 

[schwags]

also, when vaping one carto all day how often do you refill?

 

[Adrenalynn]

"As often as you need to"

That's vaper-dependent to the n^th degree there...

 

[schwags]

just seeing when people refill on avg.. so i can get an idea.. i understand that everyone is diff vaping

I've been doing this for a few months now and still am at odds on when to refill. There's really no set timing on it, and that makes it a little hard for me to know when. I do know that if you are using a passthrough on your puter it'll take a lot more refilling because you go through a lot more juice with the passthrough than with batteries. Also, some of the carts may be fuller than others with juice, some people vape more often and pull harder, too. So this is a real conundrum for me.

I try to go on the change of taste, it does taste a bit marshmallowy to me, too, when they get low. Vapor production doesn't go down, though, that's what makes it hard for me.

Better to refill sooner than later with the cartos.

 

[Taryn]

Well said Pugzley! I vape around 1.5 to 2 cartos worth a day.

 

[Pugzley]

I wish I knew how many I use, I keep alternating them. One of these days I'm just going to have to pick out a couple and see, I guess. I do know I vape a lot more some days than other, though.

What a weird word: vape.
