Okay, been out of the loop for a while, so, forgive my ignorance for the following inquiry.

Are there, aside of dual coil (hate 'em), any other cartomizers that will fit into the DCT? I realize and regret, that if there are, they will lack the very handy, built-in platform at the end of each carto. But, I am curious to see if another brand (aside of smoktek) will absorb this VG juice I have better, or not.

Yes, I realize I need to saturate the living hell out of the carto, and believe me, I am. Alas, I am already on the 4th carto in my pack and I have only been able to get one (the first) to function at an optimal and satisfactory level. To save everyone the history of my personal failures let us just jump to #4 (current carto) and I will explain what I have done.

I used a method that I am sure many are familiar with; the "Cartomizerfillanator", or, a needle-less syringe attached to a carto condom as an easier and quicker method of filling cartos. I repeatedly filled and emptied the syringe, very slowly,for approximately 10 minutes. Also, I used a syringe to "prime" the filler, but, I was extremely careful not to push the filler down too much (as I did with carto #3 ). I even stabbed the holes that I made (2, and they're large) with the syringe and added some juice through there as well. After all of this, I felt the carto should be saturated, or well on its way (damn close, I am thinking).

Unfortunately, I am still forced to suck extremely hard, and many times just to see any bubbles rise to the top. Of course, it is working, but with such magnitude of effort that I find it easier to just top it off like in the ole days.

I do not wish to dilute my juice as I know it is 100% possible to get it to function without doing so (carto #1 was pure bliss).

So, Andrew, friends, does anyone know of any other carto that will work in this nifty device? Yes, I appear the lonely type writing out a novel for a simple question. Brevity was never a strong quality of mine.

TLTR (too long to read, for those who are not aware of this acronym)

Want to try another carto out, aside of smoketek and dual coil (must fit in dual coil tank). Suggestions?

I've been testing the NEW "BOGE" ""XL"" 3.0 carto now for almost a week on my vari volt at 4.4 volts,in my tank, out of a tank,thich juice thin juice etc... I can't say it would work with what your situation is,BUT I have noticed the filler is much softer,looser(more loose),more absorbant and all in all works very nice in my DCT. VERY NICE. Even though the 100% VG juices are sold and labeled as 100% VG most are 10-15% PG flavoring or more with some. So most 100%VG juices are really 90/10 or 85/15 etc.. You get the picture. At any rate,I have found the "BOGE" ""XL"" to be now one of my top used carto's,now if I can get them in a 3.2 ohm for 5 volt vaping I'll be straight !!! I know this is kind of bad advice, but if your having no luck with the best brands on the market maybe it's time to try some off brands. Also the Kranger horizontal coil cartos are have extreeeeeemely absorbant filler,maybe give those a shot. Take care everyone . J

I find these newer syringe carto fitting work freaking super for filling carto's, though I use Atty's in tanks more then anything I still use a carto once in a while and when I do I use this newer fitting to fill and it does the job nicely.

mwa, where did you get that fitting from?

 

[VAPNJ350]

The answer is yes, any carto that is at least as long as the ST DCC will fit in the ST DCT. But this thread is for Andrew's products. So I wouldn't specify other brands here without Andrew's blessing.

Turtle, Hey brotha, I think he's ok, a lot of Andrew's product's are smoketech. ....J

Yeah,MWA, where did you get that fitting ? Im very curious. Thanks. J

Right, J. All of CCV's carto's are ST or Boge.

Levi said he's looking for other than ST. He also said he wants something to fit in the ST DCT that Andrew sells. Though longer than the regular Boge, the Boge XL is too short for the ST DCT. You are maybe using it in some other tank? (I have, and I wish they were long enough for the DCT. It would be my preferred setup.)

And CCV does not carry the Kanger (no "r"), at least not yet. That's why I didn't mention it in Andrew's thread.

Do you mean the ones that come with the E-Power? Or the Bolt?

Glad to hear you discovered the problem Karen. I bet you will get a lot better flavor now too.

Yeah Bozzlite, felt kinda dumb for not filling them up.The flavor is great now..not burnt tasting at all.

But one more question, please. I got three boxes of the clear Resurrectors and a couple of them aren't tight or screwed in to their base...they turn. I'm talking about the plastic cylinder part that surrounds the cotton type(wicking?) material. They came loose at the bottom while I was vaping and the cotton stuff came out. Is it normal for them to turn? If not, is there a way to tighten them on their base? I was afraid to do anything to them til I asked you guys.

Lol, guess you can tell I'm a kind of a noob.

Turtle,ok I get what you were meaning now by your statement....gotcha. Oh yeah ,also about the ST DCT and the BOGE "XL",I am using it in the ST DCT and it actually sticks out the top of the tank by a 16th of an inch,mine fits perfect in all 8 of my ST DCT, alloy and delrin both. If your having any problems I would be interested to talk to you further in PM to see what the deal is. J

I have never used the clear ones, but I'm pretty sure it's not normal for the plastic tube to turn.

I don't know of any way to fix 'em either. Just be very careful when you screw them on to the battery. That's probably whats causing them to break loose. Just tighten them barely enough to make a connection to the battery connector.

 

[Bozzlite]

Just wanted to say CCV does have some great deals for their products. But, for all the military personnel deployed out there, they will not ship to an APO address. I wish they would

Maybe it has something to do with having to put your SSN in the address. A little too much personal information for security reasons.

The first class postage is the same to an APO as it to a New York or California address.

No, just when I go to print labels (stampdotcom) pops an error window saying this requires a customs form slip to be filled out pryer to shipping.

BTW: Sure sorry few the few hours a day I'm open, but I refuse to get back to customers having to wait 5 to 8 days to even ship there stuff, seems everyone gets ready everyday around 10am they order, been getting more orders in 2 hours then was getting full day weeks ago, in all this restructuring i plum forgot to order more 30ml bottles on last order, thats why all custom juices say outta stock, til new order gets here.

Karen,
1 good rule of thumb with ALL clear type carto's, Never screw them on to a battery by holding them at the top mouth piece. ALWAYS hold them firmly at the base right where the tube is pressed onto the thread base and gently but somewhat firm screw them on the battery but just enought to make contact then maybe an 8th of a turn after that. If any clear carto's come loose a quick easy fix that I've done in the past is barely and very gently lift up the tube just a milimeter or 2. Drop "1" drop of silicon adhesive (any auto parts store) or super glue on the very very bottom of the vertical ribbed part of the thread base,then as your pushing the tube back down on the thread base light turn the tube as you push down 180 degrees so the silicon or glue make a full turn and seals the bottom from leaks and air flow. Please be very VERY CAREFUL NOT to get ANY silicon or glue up into the actual liquid filler chamber as this would be VERY BAD AND TASTE QUITE AWFUL. If you use a very small drop this shouldn't happen and will be fine. Make sure to wait for the recommended period for the product to cure completely and dry as per the directions of the product to be sure it is sealed and secure to use,but still screw it on the battery from the base of the carto. I know this was a bit long but hopefully it helps you and maybe more people having a similar issue. You all take care. ......J

I screw them down holding the drip tip, when the it get tight enough for the o-ring in the tip to slips , thats perfect pressure,,,like a built in torque wrench. Of course if the tip is wet might add little twist tightening by base, but dry drip tips works great.

Lava-tubes, both kits and stand alone, These are upgraded lava-tubes that read atty or carto resistance, early version of lava-tubes did not do this, also these have a higher amperage output then previous versions, should be here in a few weeks.

Does that include the mini LT?

 

[ToweKnee]

Andrew you going to be open today or Monday? Need a 15 pack of Resurrectors let me know if its going to be a long delay or not.
