When I dripped more e-liquid into my prefilled cartos that I thought had been used up enough to accept more, I dripped it into the top (not attached to a battery) till I saw iiquid on the top of the filler stuff. When that looked juicy, I blew through the hole. I set it on a kleenex to absorb a little liquid that came out, then waited a while for more, cleaning off the ends with the kleenex, and then first used it on my manual battery, just to be sure. All seemed to be OK. Did I do it right? It seems I did. And when I use the condom method, can I just do the same to be sure of no leaking or overfilling?

I have only used the condom method when filling a new blank carto. Then top off with juice when needed, by dripping. Seems to me if you use the condom method on one that is already "wet" even just a little, will be to much and cause problems. I have never had one leak, but I did have one gurgle and spit into my mouth, but was easily fixed by spinning and blowing. I do not ever want it to spit into my mouth again. My tongue was numb for a couple hours where the juice hit. Not fun, not to mention it was nasty! lol

Yes, to top off the cartos I had, I dripped into them, but I'm ordering blank cartos that have not been filled, and I'll fill them, so this is different. That's why I was asking.

OOOOhh, he's sooo cute! WIll you be able to fix the box or will you have to start from scratch?

Thanks.. Yeah i can hot glue this one back together, once he has finished playing with it though.... He likes this one better cos its not velcro'd down to stay put
Sandysu i had to reread your post again (claps) see your a volt pro now. Yep and its the same for condom filling. The benefits i find with condom filling is as the juice is travelling from the bottom upwards i am assured the coil is getting wet as it fills. You will see the liquid flow from the middle tube ( while looking at the carto from above) and pool around the top sides if too much is used. But usually on a first fill the filler soaks it all up. Sometimes i just drop a few drops on the top if it looks white as apposed to slushie. Then set aside for a few hours or for the next day

Haha! That is funny. I convinced my husband to get the black/pink swirl lookin bowling ball a couple weeks ago. I have never met anyone with more of a bowling addiction than my husband. lol year round, every week. He goes to Springfield in April for tournament which was the purpose of the new ball, new shoes, new bag.... ugh!! If I had to put up every single plaque, award or trophy I would have to have a bigger house with a room just for that. He has 32 300 games since he started playing back in high school. As for me? I cannot knock down a pin no matter how hard I try.

Little discovery tonight... I put a refilled carto on and the draw was very airy - could hear the wind whistling. So I gave it just a hair of a turn to loosen it just a smidge, and voila! Nice normal draw again.
Upon a closer look, the air holes on the battery had been lined up with the air holes on the carto. So when I gave that 'unturn' the holes weren't lined up anymore so no more weak & airy draw.

I seem to be spending alot of my time here.... Heheh well i better run along to my weekly league ten pin night. See ya later everyone

Lol yes bowling is very addictive & expensive depending on how far you take it. 32 300's is impressive!!! On an average week i hit 140, two night ago during practise when it doesn'nt count i do a 186. During weekly games anywhere from 120 to 160. Training helps , i've only been playing for 4 years and my very first game was 80. I always hoped dad's bowling gene's were passed onto me. This year its my goal to crack the 200. P.s go hubby... Oh stacey im sure you hit more than 1

 

[kerrdj]

taking the volt box picture tomorrow now that i have all the sampler packs... also, ive tried every flavor now so i know what to buy during the sale. the watermelon tastes like bubble gum lol never tried ry4 before and i LOVE the caramel flavor. wasnt big on 555 or freedom. i love all the menthol flavors but havent picked which one i want to use consistantly yet.

I would rather sit back, watch and vape. They still allow smoking in the bowling alley here and its all I can do to just walk in there now. I just cannot believe I use to smell like that. It doesn't help that my sense of smell is very acute right now. Its like everything is intensified to the point of making me feel nauseous. I can smell things that I didn't even know had a smell, which is not always a good thing. LOL

I wasn't big on the 555 or Freedom either. But I also can't do the fruity flavors other than SI vanilla, ECBlends banana, SI Ry4 and ECBlends butterscotch.

i can do the smoketip vanilla but i wasnt a big fan of the SI vanilla(sorry being honest). my gf however loved the SI vanilla so that was easy lol i had a blast spending time trying all the SI flavors. i also really like the smoketip almond *hint hint imagine*

If I had to choose between the SI Vanilla and the ECB Vanilla Swirl..... ECB would win. Its a soft sweet vanilla.. yum yum. Its so good I was able to go 0mg nic just to vape the flavor. ) But the banana is my go to juice right now. I will grab it before the others. I also had to go 0mg nic on it. I keep my RY4 18mg nic close by for those nic fits that happen. Getting further and further in between but still there.

You should update the OP. I placed an order yesterday (early saturday morning) thinking it would also ship out saturday because on the first page of this thread under the "reminders" section it says "same day shipping m-sat. before 2pm est." However after not receiving an email with tracking number I checked my recent orders and the status still said processing. So I looked in the customer service section and it said up to 48 hrs not including weekends. Thats quite a bit of difference. I was expecting I'd be getting the package on wed. (cuz 1st class mail is 1-3 days)... Now I realize it probably won't even leave till tuesday

 

[Imagine]

Our official terms do say 48 hours not including weekends... but we do usually ship same day as most people here can confirm (including Saturdays ..just not Sundays)... this weekend we are running a pretty big sale so some orders did not make it out it will definitely ship Monday though.

I was just going to say that Imagine....Kushsmoka, I ordered a kit on a Friday (late) and even though I received one delayed email, (if you could call it that) that package was mine by Wednesday! (Even though I couldn't get to it until Friday, but that's another story)
They are very, very fast with mailing, IMHO.
jacki

edit: My thoughts are that they must all be Voltie-vapers as well, and realize how badly you want that package, lol

 

[VaVaunt]

I'm so glad the conversation has turned to filling the cartos fellow Volties...it's really helped me read through all of your experiences and tweak what was going on with mine. I think I've got it pretty well nailed now, and not having any issues anymore. I know I'll misfill a carto, or get some ejuice down the center, but at least I'll know what to do, and how to get a great hit. You guys are 'da bomb! TYVM!

[Esoterica3]

You're probably off for the weekend now Imagine, but are they ever going to change the kits back to offer the new higher voltage wall charger as an option? They used to have it, but it went away awhile back

Also, still seem to be out of several batt colors (78 manual black/green LED...think the auto was out too), any word on when they arrive? or did I just miss them somehow?

Thanks and have a great weekend!

Volt stuff is hard to resist, isn't it?

The pink and silver glitter wraps are beautiful......you're gonna love them! I hope you got diamond end caps to use with them.
