Since the bulk of my cartos are black, I'm using a small ~$30 Brother PT-80 to print out tiny flavor labels for my cartos and it is working brilliantly. I usually keep the text short (i.e. "V4L/555" or "GT24mg") and print in the smallest font, then cut down the label to just larger than text size. The labels adhere wonderfully and are not affected by juice (either the ink or adhesive). Two thumbs up!!

I need to get one of those lable makers. What I am doing now is using Avery mailing lables. I printed all my flavors ,CHR, TOB, VAN, etc all over them in a tiny font, and cut them up with scissors. They work, but not as well as I'd like. They fall off rather easily, and get juice stained.

What I would really like, is to make black stickers with white lettering. Blucigs prints an abreviation on their carts with white paint, so it is very neat and clean looking. The paint scrateches off easily, and they only have five flavors.

I should check out a custom printing shop and see how much they would charge. I am sure I could fit enough lables on and 8x10 sheet to last me a few years.

I use our label maker at work [don't tell my boss lol]

Its nice having labels... otherwise I get flustered because I forget whats what.... especially since I probably have a dozen cartos in rotation right now.

If I'm at home I'll just cut a small piece of masking tape and use that to write on... Its easy to pull off in case I wash it out and change flavors.

I was using a ball point pen to write on my cartz, but the ink wore off from being in my pocket all day.

The HC juice I use has very small clear labels stuck onto a generic bottle. These peal off and would be perfect except they are printed in black and all my cartos are black. But you can still read them if you look carefully and they last well and cost $0.00!!

That's my favorite price!!!

Sounds great! Have you tried this with the carto condom refill method, and if so, does it stand up to that kind of treatment too?

I have, and while the stickers are unfazed, the ink starts to wear off after a few weeks. Probably the vodka soak I do for cleaning doesn't help! You can still read it, but it does fade over time. This is a testament to cartos...they take a licking and keep on ticking. ;)

I use these: https://e-cig.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=800

they have high/low/med/none written on them, so between the different levels and colors I can keep track.

These are fantastic! I've been using a cheap label maker, but color coding the cartos would be the cherry on top. I'm going to look to see if there are any U.S. suppliers carrying them.

Anyone ever order from the above company e-cig.com? What about their e liquid?

I have made 3 or 4 orders from them.

Free express shipping with tracking for orders over $100, takes 4 days to Australia (all other china suppliers take 8+ days), goods come well packaged tightly wrapped in bubble wrap, usually process and ship orders same day. I have had 2 very slight leaks upon opening (was just moisture on bottle)

I love their liquid, but am unsure if it is VG as stated because the carto packets still list PG on the ingredients list.

I have tried most of their flavours and love most.

40 x 4ml sampler is $40!

Best flavs imo:

Chocolate- real milk chocolate taste
Vanilla- Ice-creamy
Plum- yum
Blueberry- sweet
Strawberry- candy type
Menthol- tobacco flavored menthol

I like their tobacco flavs too, but some may be a bit strong if not used to it, flue cured etc.

Didn't like licorice.

Good TH and they do 36mg too.

Bottles are not childproof, but the 8ml bottles are cool. (glass with dropper)

The E9 e-cig is not compatible with the KR808-d1 (it is a d2)

I would def recommend, it is my favorite juice shop.
