question about cartridge mods

[tlf]

I've read on here about replacing the polyfill in cartridges i was just wondering on my 510 cartridges if i could use the stuff from old cd sleeves i have a case for my cd's and a lot of the plastic is tearing.I started to throw it in the trash then i was looking at some of the pieces where the plastic had tore off and i was looking at the part the back of the cd is against and it looks like it might make a good replacement for the filler I was just wondering if anyone had tried this or if anyone with more experience than me thinks this would work.

I would becareful of the chemicals it may or may not release. Fluval and Marineland Type U are what is suggested. I've used both with excellent result. Both can be found at petsmart or a local petshop. They are fish filters.

I use the Marineland Rite size U stuff. It's very inexpensive, wicks the juice up WAY better than the stock filler, and you can get it at the pet store. It looks like this:
Marineland Magnum Foam Sleeve "Rite-Size U" 3pk.

Here's a pretty good video on how to use it if you are going to buy the whole package and cut it up on your own (EASY):

You can also buy them already cut to size in a little package but I can't seem to find any to show you right now...

Ditto on what they said. Also, you CAN dump the filler altogether and just drip.... a lot easier overall.

I drip some when i'm at home but i like having the carts when i'm out or at friends houses who have kid's because i've heard you have to be careful with the liquid.

If you try random plastics or fabrics it may be flammable or melt all over your atomizer (or be toxic or a carcinogen etc)

Go to StrictlyEjuice.com, Flavor Shop! and buy the precut blue foam pieces for 510 (I think 10 pieces for 75 cents)
