Slotting Cartos, one or two slots?

[Crazyeye]

Hey guys, so I decided to slot my cartos for my new lil mama tank and I have read that the number of holes is dependent on the juice. Is it pretty much trial an error with a new juice to see if one will pull enough liquid first? I will mainly be using

HX3 E-Liquid
and
Prime15

Thanks for any tips.

Haven't vaped halo's juices for a while but if I remember right they seem to have high PG in them.So one good size slot should do just fine. When i slot cartos juices with more PG one slot. juices with more VG 2 slots.

I've tried 2 slot, 1 slot, big slots, little slots & not sure why, but they always flood on me. Some juices I could get to work ok with one slot, but they still flood on me after vaping a few ml's. All I use is 100% vg & only use 1 punched hole in my boge's. Larger for thick juice like boba's. Even with 2 holes I get gurgling & spitting after a while. For me 1 hole makes the carto last a lot longer. I use a M1A1, big daddy, SS Dct Map, & a siam tank with the new thicker orings.

Odd for me because I've tried everything & found 1 punched to work the best. It's funny to see people use 2 slots because I can't do that in any of my tanks & make the carto last at least 30ml's.

As a side note: I honestly believe when you slot a carto, your get a little metal in the filler which could in turn be inhaled. JMO.

I use pure VG, and believe it or not I punch 4 holes, 2 at the top and 2 at the bottom and have no flooding issues. I use the Lil Mama as well.

do you remove top cap to fill tank? than press top cap back on? i was doing that,..created pressure in the tank and forced liquid to flood carto.

now i just slide carto down and sneak in through the top cap still on. no more flooding.

No, I use a slap yo mama or tank filler from COV. If I don't have those I just use a taped drip tip.

I use a saddle valve to punch my cartos and make a slightly big hole near the bottome since I vape with 100% vg liquid. I then put a second tiny hole near the top to adjust for any pressure.
