Okay, I have a question for those of you who use cartomizers and multiple flavors of juice. How do you tell them apart and keep them all straight? My first brilliant idea was to get colored end caps from Smokeless Image. That worked fine as long as I only had five flavors. Now I have eleven with more on the way. My next brilliant idea was to order some stainless steel cartos and write the flavors on with a fine point Sharpie. That worked fine too, for about ten minutes. Apparently Sharpies are permanent on everything ***except*** stainless steel cartos. Several black stained fingers later I'm back at square one. So, what do you all do? I'm sure there must be a very simple solution that I'm just too dense to figure out.

i started off using all purpose labels and cutting them down to tiny squares when i was vaping a million bottles at once. then i started using carto wraps from smokeless image to tell which juice what is what carto. then i said screw it, i dont need a bunch of juice cartos laying around when i only vape a few of them. so i bought a different color drip tip for each of my favorite juices... because they were cute, cheap... and well... drip tips are in. =)

I once converted a roommate to the same brand I was using. Then we couldn't tell our stuff apart! So I painted all my batteries with a little nail polish. I moved away from that crazy woman and now my stuff just looks junky, smeared with light blue... But it worked for the intended purpose! And there are bazillions of nail polish colors out there. Sparkles would be awesome <3 haha

I mark the carto condoms with a sharpie and put scotch tape over it. When I switch to a different one, the current one gets topped off and put back in the condoms.

:::slapping forehead::: You're supposed to save the condoms? See, no one told me that. Thanks for the ideas everyone. I'm so glad I found ECF!

I only keep 2-3 in rotation. I have one for all my fruit flavors and a second one for tobacco flavors. Occasionally, I will have a third for darker sweet flavors like caramel, toffee, etc..

The mixing of the flavors will change the flavor a little bit at first but within about 10min of vaping the new flavor overpowers the old and you can only taste the new flavor. This holds true if you keep your different types of flavors in separate cartos.

Flavor purist may frown upon this but anything more would be too big of a hassle, for me.

I set my cartos on a desk, on a piece of blank paper. Then I just write down on the paper what flavor next to the cartos. I also do this on cartos that I cleaned, and write it down as "cleaned" for future use.

Great username btw, Pollywollydoodle! :D

That's a good idea too, Syav, but with five cats I'm afraid that cartos on the desk would soon be a thing of the past. They qualify as little, shiny rolley things, you know. I think there's probably one or two under the sofa already. Thanks for liking my username...Polly is one of the five and I sometimes call her Pollywollydoodle.

I am a squirrel and amongst my acorns I found an old printers/typesetters tray. Lots of people hang them on the wall now, but mine is small enough to fit in a drawer in my work table. Here is are some examples, but I got mine off of eBay and I don't remember it being as expensive (but that was a number of years ago). Mine is also rather beat up, so I didn't feel bad when I knocked out a few partitions to make some of the boxes bigger: Artist Printers Tray
