How sensitive are the automatic batteries to juice? I've never had an auto before and I understand I'm going to have to be careful but will a tiny amount kill it or do you have to flood it? I was reading a thread yesterday where a lot of people prefer autos in spite of me being told to avoid them. I'm hoping reasonable caution in refilling will be enough. My kit just hit Orlando this afternoon and is in a saddlebag on a pony headed toward my town.

I always used manuals until now....dripping is a huge concern with autos....but since I now soley use cartos with my 808 manual I don't worry as much. If I refill one I let it sit for a bit to soak in and before using it a give it a slight blow into a paper towel to make sure I don't have too much juice.

I LOVE MY AUTOS!!!! I can type, play angry birds, do my nails, etc and not have to stop to push a button:):)

laura's right, wuzznt -- if you shake them or just let them sit a bit after you fill them you'll be ok. just be sure like steeljan's video showed to blow them out and wipe the battery end CLEAN. You'll see people recommending filling until they see juice dripping out of the battery end of the carto :facepalm: and THAT's what can kill an auto battery. And yes, it can happen with just a drop of juice....

achtungbaby -- i'll pm you some different vendors where I've picked up syringes here, but if you have a tractor supply/feed store type of place near you you can usually get them there CHEAP. an 18 gauge needle works for most juice...
I'll also pm you a link to an excellent video on another vendor's subforum on syringe filling -- it's where I learned everything i know :laugh:

Hey guy's how many drops do you put in a dry blank carto? just want to make sure we are doing the right amount.
Thanks

If you are using a regular dropper bottle then about 25 to 30 drops. Hold the cart on top of a paper towel. Just go slow and if it starts to leak out the bottom just stop and put it aside for about 20 minutes. Make sure it is dry on the bottom before you svrew it back on the batt and you are go to go.

Hey all! Just wanted to drop in and say that tonight I've been testing 3 juices from another vendor and because I'm a nerd I'm testing all three in 3 different PVs and the Volt is honestly destroying these other big batts/dual-coil cartos taste-wise. The Volt is not burning the flavor like the other ones and I'm getting amaaaaazing hits. I continue to be really really happy I own this little guy. Honestly if I didn't have the Volt I would consider these juices to be horrible.

i'm in the process of taste testing the cartos i ordered with my kit-ry4(which ive tried before), 555, cowboy and desert joe. it's almost irritating how much i'm enjoying them lol, they're all good.

i have to give kudos in regards to the quality of them. i've bought pre-filleds from a certain other high profile 808 vendor and they were literally garbage compared to these: inconsistent, "dry", miserable vapor, etc. not to mention the unreasonable shipping costs...

so far in my limited experience with s.i. you guys have absolutely blown me away. i can comfortably remove other vendors from my bookmarks now, i finally found the "all in one" vendor i've been looking for since i started vaping.

Totally aggree with this statement... I hope SI starts to get a whole bunch more flavors... I would love to do business with just one company... Im tired of trying to search out for the best deal... If I could have everything at a central location that would make it sooo much easier, not to mention I would be even more inclined to spend even more money... I ve only placed a couple of orders with SI, but I have seen enough to know that I will continue to order with them... MORE FLAVORS SI... Then BULK PRICING lol...

as long as you blow through them an let them sit on a paper towel without juice coming out you shouldn't have an issue....

w00t I was just reading back and saw that the HEATWAVE sale might be going on until the starter kit inventory comes in?? I reeeeally want to get two more PCC kits for friends/family and would love that heatwave code to get them.

Did I also read that you're getting in new top-secret PCC models? Or did I read that wrong...

Just wanted to pop in and say I just turned my friend on to the Volt and he loves it. He likes a lot of flavors so he checked with a big well known vendor (who shall remain nameless) who carries a huge selection of flavored carts and asked them if their cartos were the horizontal coil ones like Volt carries? They got back to him and their answer was "No ours are not the horizontal coil ones, but ours coolcarts are better". What a load of hogwash. I personally have use their cartos and told him they all have a washed out flavor and get that dreaded burnt taste.

So I think I conviced him to stick with Volt cartos. But I sure hope Imagine will add more flavors so we all can just buy from SI from now on.

ok bad news.. our rep in china just said they only have the tobacco flavors from our infamous e-liquid vendor ...she thought that meant menthol as well...it does not...just cowboy/555/ry4 and desert joe for now.... we will most likely be adding a menthol flavor called menthol burst to tide everyone over.... keep you updated...sorry ice menthol fans....
well we just got news at 5am this morning from our rep in china that the liquid is up to par quality wise...they will be filling cartos starting tonight and later this week the 30ml bottles :)
