Refilling Bloog MaxxFusion Cartomizers

[Evilgrin]

Can someone give me a synopsis on the best way to refill these cartos? I've been doing some reading and am getting more confused by the moment. Do the cartos need to be boiled and dried before refilling? WTF is a Taryn Spin? Do you take the plastic tip off and drip down the sides, or drip directly into the tip? What is the condom method? How many drops of liquid do I put in a carto?

It seems like there's a lot of info out there, but these cartos seem to be rather unique, so I thought I'd ask here for instructions specific to the MaxxFusion PV. Thanks everyone !

So many questions..... but hot damn, this is exciting !

With a rubber cover on the battery end (the cover with the plug inside), I just pop the cap off the carto, tilt the carto at a 45 degree angle and drip down the inside, rotating occasionally. I take my time to be sure that the juice is soaking in, just in case the carto was not completely empty. If the juice stops absorbing into the filler material, then the carto is too full.

I've found that, if the carto is pretty much completely depleted, I can safely add 25 drops with very little risk of it leaking.

Then I let them sit for a while before I use them so the juice can distribute evenly.

Oh, and I should add that you should blow the refilled cartos out before putting them on your battery. Just remove the rubber caps, and blow through the mouth end of the carto into a tissue, and then dry off the carto. This should remove any excess juice that could drip into your battery and ruin it.

I am a newbie so take my methodology with a grain of salt.

I pull out the plastic plug and drip down the sides, rotating it as I do so. The number of drops varies wildly for me because I can become strangely obsessive about getting the maximum amount into the cart. I am working on developing a process so it less random. Anyway, after that I centrifuge the cart by swinging my arm around and then let it set for a bit. Lastly, I blow gently through the mouth/vaping hole onto a paper towel and dry off the atomize/battery end.

I have seen a video that Leaford did showing the Taryn Spin and filling with the condom method.. He used a lanyard for the Taryn spin method which looked much easier then spinning your arm around..lol which is what I have been doing also!

But aren't the new caps supposed to let you drip juice through them and distribute it evenly?

 

[nycsublimegirl]

yes they are but this would be a slower process from what they are describing.......

Also, make sure that you take the carto off the battery when you drip as juice will kill the auto batteries if it gets inside. I learned this the hard way. The drip caps on the MF cartos are awesome!

OK, good info here, thanks all.

Just "successfully" refilled one carto. A little bit messy and seems I wasted some juice. Would it be beneficial to get a syringe for filling? How many mls of juice go in 1 carto? 2?

is it okay to boil the cartomizers to clean them and what about the black plastic labeling on them?

I believe the prefilled Maxx Fusion cartomizers have 1ml of juice.

That's a very good summary. I wpuld only add that ypu should let it sit a while after refilling it, to let the juice absorb into the fibers.

That's basically a Taryn spin, named after the ECF member who first pointed the method out. If you put the cart into a bag, you can do the same thing easier.

Yes, but I recommend using that for quick top-offs, not for full refills, because you can't see what you're doing, so its easy to overfill.

That's correct.

Find a small cup and put a thin rope on it to make your centrifuge. A MUST HAVE for chainvapers.
Or you can use the battery pouches that come with starter kits and batts.

Thanks for all the info guys.

I suck at refilling so far. I think it's a combination of impatience and lack of experience. Yesterday, I attempted to "spin" a carto to absorb more juice and proceeded to shower my relatively new and untreated La-Z-Boy with 20-30 drops of chocolate mint juice. Brilliant. Perhaps I should have put it in a Ziploc bag or something first?

I just watched Leaford's video on the condom method - seems much easier and less messy than dripping from the bottle into the carto, no?

Not really.
Nothing really messy in dripping into the carto, and the condom method is always a bit messy. Not much, but a bit.

 

[nycsublimegirl]

make sure to wash your hands as well ....nicotine can be absorbed through the skin....

Thanks for all the info guys.

You may have done this, but just in case -- you need to make sure that the cartomizer’s battery end condom plug is in before you spin it or a lot of liquid will come out during the spin. I hope this helps.

Here's another description I found:
“The Taryn spin maximizes the amount of liquid you can fill your cartomizers with, no matter what filling method you are using. After filling your cartomizer, just place it battery end down in any kind of bag, a ziplock, a battery pouch, or even a Leaford Lanyard, and spin it. The centrifugal force forces the liquid to the battery end, leaving room for more liquid!"
