Here, there, everywhere!
Thanks. I ordered it, so we'll se how I do at this next phase of my vaping experience.

That looks like Vapian's (sorry if I get this wrong) Cartomizerfillimizer (- the fancy handles) I ordered my luer lock syringe today to make one for cleaning cartomizers:)

Actually, this is the one I've had luck using, because it kinda plugs that little conduit in the middle - especially when in comes time to flip it over and let it sit... Just gotta go slow and don't overfill (e.g., 2 1/2 capfuls is better than 1 full one).

View attachment 48014
Of course YOU'RE correct View attachment 48011 . . . AND I'm planning on making sure I do it the right way the next time . . .
But overfilling was not the problem . . . I used the other end . . . I KNOW - MY BAD ! ! ! View attachment 48013
View attachment 48012 AND before anyone makes a comment or asks . . .


YES - I KNOW WHICH END IS UP ^ . . . ;)


It was just because I wasn't Up to the task at "hand" ^ View attachment 48015

Something just occurred to me after these discussions of hot/cold weather. Do you suppose people in very humid climates could have issues -- like if moisture is getting into the batts it would appear as if juice was the culprit?

They look like they may be the same concept....doesn't say if they are horizontal coil or not....I will assume based soley on the plug that they are, but you know what they say when you assume:facepalm:

As for why not to use the lr....2 reasons...heat and batt life....they will drain the batts much much quicker....and with Volt batts being regulated, they are set to work best with the higher ohm cartos.

just realized this wasn't the right post to quote, but what the hay...

I see. So when your 510s start dying out, you can replace them with 78mm Volts. I chain vape at work and only need 2 to get thru the day.


No such thing as a dumb question. Almost all of my Volts are 65mm - but I have lots of mega 510's that don't need changing as often and can keep up with my near chain-vaping. The mega 510's also look more like art pens. As you can see by the pic, I have a lot of different flavors going at once because I'm just weird like that. :blush:

ok I have been off my grape and vaping the menthol burst all day...although I am still not great at describing a flavor here I go:

I could vape it all day with no issue...(I was a menthol smoker) but grape is my all day usual vape.

it is a definite menthol flavor ...not a mint flavor...not a tobacco flavor
great throat hit
not sweet...more refreshing...

definitely get a BURST of menthol in every hit ... my new second favorite though...as it was not overwhelming

hope that helps some decide...

AND that is why I posted a link to "Vapian's" Thread about the "Cartomizerfillimizer" . . . :D

Personally - I do not think you're wrong . . . View attachment 48022

View attachment 48026 I saw this a couple of days ago and really believe this person View attachment 48024 RIPPED-OFF "Vapian's" idea BIG time . . .

But then again that's my opinion View attachment 48025 and I'm stikin' to it View attachment 48027 at least until it can be proven to me otherwise and he didn't "RIP-OFF" "Vapian's" Idea. . .

Okay - ANYONE - Want to fight - OH, AM I SO READY ! ! ! ;)

Where I usually am
I use an Ultrasound cleaner to clean my carts, tips,caps etc. I can clean over 20 carts at a time in mine. Gets them snow white if you use it with the right stuff. But like the homemade Cartomizerfillinator
Vapian posted to fill them.
Cartomizerfillinator ....This is by far the best way to clean cartos. I began cleaning cartos this way about 6 months ago.
Then I had seen Vapians vid on filling cartos and thought dahhhh:facepalm:,...I can fill them up with that method too:laugh:
When I get about 20 cartos ready for cleaning, I grab 2 16oz glasses and fill them up with distilled water and put them in the microwave for 3.5 minutes....nice and hot but not hot enough to burn your hands. I pop the carto on my 10mil syringe with the battery connection facing out and pull in the hot distilled water and squirt the nastyness into the sink. "I do this three times per carto". Now I have clean cartos that need to be dried.. You can use the syringe for this as well. with the carto still attached to the syringe, pull and push on the plunger about 10 times to get out all the water you can.
I only do this a couple of times and then I blow out the water with my mouth from the side of the carto you vape on.....not the threaded end.....blow that out a couple of times and set them on a paper towell with the battery connection down for 24 hours.. WALA! clean cartos:).

I have tried other methods like......putting them in a pot and boil for ten minutes or so...
jewelry cleaners you name it.

If you have not tried the Fillonater / Cleanonater method out...Please do for the sake of the cartomizer :p

Aw, thank you sweet Kee! I'm not out -- actually have about 4 boxes of 12mg RY4 cartos left, and 5ml of 6mg RY4 for topping off -- I'm just getting antsy!:laugh::laugh::laugh:

But I'm also kinda broke, so I really really need a bunch of 30ml bottles of RY4 12mg so I can refill to my heart's delight! ;)

Theoretically, I could go check out that other place (Star's favorite! /sarc) for juice (at top dollar price & shipping), but I absolutely will not go there, on general principles!

I don't have their joose either....and same thing....on principle!!! Jerks:p My stand in is from soley a juice vendor and it is different, but still very good...(big thanks to atchung for the introduction....like a match-maker she is:laugh:) Anywho....anytime dear;) So...if there is a delay, and you do run out, the offer will still be open for you....muah!

YES - Finally - a very simple and direct answer . . . View attachment 48028

It is "Menthol" . . . View attachment 48030 (Pun intended - I smoked "Kool")

Now, I'm still going through what I have, but that definately gives me another option - Thankfully . . . :D

AND - Although, I know "taste" is subjective View attachment 48029
"Imagine" - THANK YOU ! ! ! for posting this information. View attachment 48033

Tried cleaning with Cleanonater and works great but MUCH to slow when I have a bunch of carts to clean. I use 50% Vodka
(100 proof) and 50% water in my 42,000 cycle Bogue Ultrasonic.

For small batches I use a small glass dish for the vodka/water mix and carts, sit glass inside cleaner and fill cleaner as normal.

Mine has a 3 min. timer and I usually run it through 3 or so times until cart filler is white. Rinse with running hot water. Wrap rubber band around carts, paper towel around bundle, put in a sock, and do the Taryn spin.

Don't take long to dry and then ready for the Vapian Filler!!
