PTB: Questions and confirmations

[Garrell6888]

So I have been using the PTB (reg) mod for my 510 carts. Its pretty effective, but it seems that sometimes I get different outcomes from one cart to another.

Heres what I do:

*Every morning I make a new PTB cart, and drop 15 drops into it, and one on the atty
*I top off with 2 drops, and one in the atty. Done once or twice
*After topping off once or twice during the day, I refill it with 10 drops, and one in the atty
*I top off again once or twice after the refill, 2 drops, and one in the atty.
*I throw away my PTB the next morning when I make my next one.

It seems sometimes my carts last longer before the refill more than others. I base when I need to top off or refill on when I get a slight burnt taste. I try and refill roughly 8 hours after my initial fill.

Also, sometimes, I get the taste, but I pull out the PTB and its still got a lot of juice left in it.

I'd most rather prefer Fill/top/refill/top. Sometimes it works, sometimes I have to top off about an hour after my last top off, because it still has niquid and I don't want to refill it yet.

What should I do to maximize my niquid? Should I be topping off to pool? How often do most people top off, and is it just a top off, or a top off/refill every time?

Also, please share with me your habits with the PTB so I can maximize my own usage. Thanks

I top off to the point where there is a bit of a puddle and hold the cart upright while I put the atomizer down into it. I look at it as a combo of topping off and dripping.

BTW, you don't have to throw them out. Part of the wonderfulness of PTB is that you can rinse it out and use it again and again. I do think they wick better when I rinse them out every day, but I frequently get lazy and then have to top off more often.

... I do think they wick better when I rinse them out every day...

You might be right Moonflame, I feel the same way at times. Thought it was just my imagination.

This deserves more study.

Hmmm, I pick up my 510 in the morning and VAPE, no messing around at all.
I've been using the same cart with the original stuffing for 10 days now and it still takes 6 to 8 drops to top off.

When it does get to a point where it won't work right I'll re-stuff with polyfill which costs next to nothing and is quick and easy.

In my opinion and experience the PTB is a complete waste of time, effort, tea, and juice. I tried it, found no advantage at all.

Oh, and I have not had one drop of juice in my mouth or leaking from the atomizer either.

I usually just drop onto the atty when using the PTB, or when I'm low on liquid.

I figured you were like me and monitoring this thread too Robert!

This morning effortless draw and really great vaping! (like breathing), I'm going to wash more frequently. I had only used three PTB carts originally about 2 months ago; they seem to last forever. Rinsing really does makes a big difference.
