It's a nice service that they're offering. I just filled a bunch of my carts with PTB, and it can be a little time consuming.


Yeah I did my own too before they started selling them for newbies this is an awesome service you get a mod without the hassles until your ready to try them out on your own.

Your mom said not to say...
There is always one tried and true method to find out if something is worthwhile....order one and find out. I am pretty happy with my Fluval and flicking my wrist to bring the last of the juice out, works great. I will order a few of these myself though just to see if they rock out as much as people say they do, anything is an improvement over the filler that comes in the carts.

Ok everyone this is directly from Terri I emailed her to ask (great customer service once again):

Firstly, Vicky rolls them and yes always washes her hands... they roll better when your hands are damp anyway...

The bag is cut half then folded in thirds...(like a Z) then take a toothpick and fold a small portion over it then roll... insert into cart, spread by unwinding and 'flower' the center so juice doesn't have as much of a clear way up... easy peasy

Whenever using only a half a PTB, IMO, its always a good idea to make a fold instead of trimming the material to have it fit in the cart. I feel its a great way to keep the juice together.

As far as my opinion about the way its done... as long as it works for you. The ONE thing that I have found out for CERTAIN is that one way is not for everyone. There are too many variables. How people vape: hard vs. smooth pulls, juice: thin/ thick dark/ light, vape practices: couple of drags then put it in your pocket/ fill cart then vape till empty. Of all the issues we have had with the poly-fill the one thing I have not heard much of is flooding an atty or excessive leaking. I feel that is because they deal with the constants they have; the consistency of the juice and how much they put in. Then they have their 'rules' or 'best practice' of using the poly-fill. We are told to take a couple of drags then wait a couple of minutes so that the top of the cart can get more juice. Well... that is not how everyone wants to enjoy their e-cig.

Even for me, when I finally got a mod that I thought would work well for me, it took a couple of days to really know how to maximize my experience. With many PTB mods you can pull a lot of juice into the atty if there is a good amount of juice in the cart and you take a hard pull with the LED pointing down. Its a good thing I learned, for me, the best way to get a good vape is to take really smooth long drags. Most of the time I even take a double hit so I can start enjoying the small and taste of the first hit while inhaling for the second.

So, everyone is different. The 'RHO' mod is not for everyone. What I can say is that it works for me. I can get my head around how it, supposedly works. One piece, folds and frays for directional movement of the juice, spirals for stability and allowance for the atty shape and most importantly the PTB material. I have found other benefits such as having the folds on the top keeps the material that is closest to the heating coil wet and less likely to burn. I also learned that because it is folded then rolled I can make the mod slightly taller than the cart (making it easy to remove) without fear of it coming too close to the heating coil or leaving stray pieces to get 'caught' on the bridge.

Because some people had issues with the mod I was also able to make other variations using more folds or more material. This is really good to know when using different types of juice. All in all I have had a great time working on this and look forward to see what people come up with next. The way I see it, if you dont fail, that means you are not trying. Believe me, there are so many I have failed at. I almost started a blog the other day just so people know 'what not to do' the story of the things that I have tried to put in a 510 cart and failed miserably. If only to be able to look back and say, oh yeah, I tried that before, 'didnt work.'

holy cow i didnt realize this post was so long. anyway best of luck and happy vaping. Keep the adventure going. (well... until you find something that works for you)

Too bad they are f'in whistle-tip 510's instead of normal. :(

I thought the 510 only came with whistle tip until I seen aunts she has round tip i personally like the whistle tip better. Hubby prefers the round so traded with aunt.

It says on the site that you can get flat or round tip. You just have to specify when you order. I find the flat tips are way better for draw, vapor, and flavor.

510 kits come with the round tips as a standard. I've never seen the kits come with flat tips.

I've been using Rho's PTB mod for a couple of days now, and I'm very happy with it. I've tried other cart mods, and this is by far the best.

I'm getting awesome flavor and vapor with it using my 510 Chuck. It's made a huge difference. And if you "accidentally" clean your atty with tequila like I did tonight, it adds a little extra throat hit and flavor to your vape. :D

Ordered mine this morning from cignot, great site and great communication! Also got some of that fish filter stuff coming from amazon. The way i look at it is this is a cool alternative to smoking and i wanna have some fun with it! Smoking analogs were NEVER fun! And thanks to the original poster [ sorry forgot your name] that posted the tip!

I specify to Joye what I want. I switch back and forth and try and have both styles on hand in case someone has a preference. If I run out of one I change the comments to say what style is available.

Just a heads up... Joye has changed their packaging... each battery and atomizer now has its own little box.

A thank you to Crankyfuzz for relaying the PTB info!
