He recommends filling from the bottom up. If you insert the needle from the bottom, won't the needle just be in the middle of the tube and not getting to the filler? Even filling from the top I sometimes have issues with still not knowing how soaked it is, or having too much like out the bottom.

Those clear dual coils are a good deal, if you don't mind plastic.

I don't use a needle on these. I just fill the little rubber cap (we call them condoms) that come with the cartos. Fill it up about 3/4 the way full and just push it on the bottom.

Called the condom fill method, but these are so large. I do them from the bottom, then drip in the top until full. That way you don't have to wait for the juice to work its way down. You hit it from both ends 8)

Thanks Stownz it works very well. No more guessing if I hit the bottom of the cart, or by swinging it and hoping it doesn't come pouring out lol. I've tried it on the kr8 cartos but it seems weirded on 510s, because the connector is different. I can't fit a tissue into the recess around the hole to try it, but surprisingly it didn't seem to get too wet. Very easy fill, will save me tons of time.

Well, I received my first dual coils from madvapes yesterday. Meh. Not really impressed. The flavor and hit was marginally better than a Boge 2.0, but not greatly so... and I think there was actually LESS vapor production. When I got home tonight, I brought in my "traveling kit" to clean it, and it had my long forgotten extended battery tube for my Indulgence. On the forum last night I was reading up on these reviews with some disappointment that I wasn't getting "stellar" results, when I saw that someone mentioned how well they worked at 6 volts.

"Now where did I put those 3v batteries?", thought I, having set aside 6v vaping long ago for lack of HV atomizers {as well as having switched to LR cartos long ago).

Well.... VIVE LA DIFFERENCE! Yeah, I'm hooked. Stoked that I've got a really great 6v now, using a carto I like. If you haven't tried these at 6 volts, you really haven't tried them :)

Crazy how you can take a 1.5 ohm atty all the way to 6 volts isn't it? Can go all the way to 7.4, super short drags and quick satisfaction. Takes a while to getting used to not sucking it for 10 seconds. At high volts, you can toke these just like a cig.

I want to try the 1.25ohm dualies. The TH on 3.7v is better? That's all I care about is TH. :)

Who is carrying packs of the 1.25ohn dualies. I don't want to buy them individually.

I really do not understand your logic, if they are cheaper individually from hoosier why would you not want to buy them individually? 2.20 per is still cheaper than I have found the 1.5 ohm ones but I have not found anyone else that has the 1.25 ones. I do not know when the code ends but he also has a 15% off coupon code which brings them down to 1.87 for the 1.25 ones and 1.70 for the 1.5 ones. Like I said I do not know when the code is up but I just used it a couple hours ago.

I ended up using the code also and purchasing from them. At the time, my logic was to buy higher quantities to justify the shipping charges.

Has anyone succesfully ordered these, when I try to check out there is no choice to by by credit card and when I submit my order it send me to an invoice to print out and mail in the payment, anyone else having this problem?

I ordered from them earlier today. Just wait for an email with payment instructions.

Been using these for weeks now- never had a bad one, and each one has lasted me thru many refills. Very happy with them. Got my first bad one yesterday- I pulled a new one out of the box and headed off to work without filling it, planned on filling at work. Got to the office filled it up (55 drops), took a drag and about gagged- had a lot of vapor, just tasted dry & burnt (blech!!!). I thought maybe it just hadn't filled completely, so I added a couple more drops and immediate had juice dripping out the bottom hole. OK, so it is filled. Took another drag- blech!!! So I let it sit for an hour thinking maybe it just needed time to get the juice in contact with the coils. After an hour, still got the nasty dry/burnt taste. Lucky for me I had not tossed the previous one in the garbage yet. I ended up vaping on the old one for the rest of the day.

FWIW- all of mine have had the copper wire at the top, but this was the first one that had any issues. So I don't feel that has anything to do with it. I'm vaping on a Darwin, and nothing changed at all voltage wise between the old and new.

CCV is new he's working on setting up for credit card he does have a good rep.I got a email from him and gave me the option to pp as a gift i did it that way.He like others was using pp to pay but then they find out it's for ecig stuff and pp stops them then.Never buy on pp as gift or purchase mention ecig stuff.I don't know why pp have a big issue with it but they do.There is some big Chinese suppliers they still let use it.
As far as the dual coil cartos they are awsome co far.

So you don't have a draw issue with the Darwin? Are you using an adapter?
