do you have any measurements?

I am currently using 1.5cm x 5cm for 80/20 and 70/30 (PG/VG) mixes.

i don't know if i could put more in to hold more liquid or if its too much. On the 80/20 seems fine but the 70/30 it seems ok. Getting a scratchy feel from the vape after 3 or so continuous hits but it might be the juice needing to steep (not sure, new juice and flavor so not familiar with it)

Cheers for the help in advance!

You might try the reticulated (exploded cell) foam material which is used in fish tank filters. I used Aquaclear material in my old 801 cartridges and it held more juice than the polyfill and wicked quite well. It needs some compression when installed to work the best, so if you try it, cut it to a diameter about 1.3x the diameter of the top cap. Punch an X-shaped opening through the center with a small chisel or screwdriver and stretch it on over the bell tube.

The foam is very easily cleaned for reuse and dries quickly.
