question about refilling cartomizers

[ayjazz]

I had purchased cartomizers from cignot.com, and compared to many of the cartos I've seen, they have a black tip opposed to a white tip. I was wondering, if they were refillable (the pre-filled ones) like the white tip ones, and if I can bottom fill and condom fill them as well, as I don't want to mess around with taking the thing apart.

Oh, and is Myvaporstore.com a good site to buy cartos as well?

You should be able to pop the tip off and refill them without a problem. I don't refill using the condom method because I think it's too messy. I just pop the tip off and drip juice on the filler.

I've never purchased anything from MyVaporStore, so I'm not much help there.

What about filling it through the bottom, like taking the bottle and dripping it into the hole?

I fill from the bottom...through the battery end, and actually prefer that method. The condom method leaves juice along the sides of the carto. Just drip one drop at a time, let it disappear into the hole, then drip another. I drip between 12 - 15 drops, after the first use (about 20 drops when new). Then I tap the carto on a napkin, wipe the screw-threads clean, attach to battery, and am good to go again.

These can be tricky to refil - I find using a syringe works best.

If they are reservoir cartos you cannot fill them the usual way by dripping into stuffing or forcing juice in from the outside because reservoir cartos have no stuffing and need a particular kind of syringe to fill. These include CE2, Clearomizer, Fluxomizer (I think those 3 need a special filling syringe with a flexible tip) and some new kind of Joye cartos (need a particular gauge sharp syringe). Most of these, if you pop the top, should have a clear seal inside with 1-2 round spots for filling with the syringe.
