Spinning Techniques

[gaijinman]

Well, I suppose when I need a new battery I'll go that route. Good ideas everyone! For now I'm gonna go with breaking in the lanyard. Wish there was some kind of spinning machine though.

.red or black velvet material

Or navy blue, or white, or lime green... I have all of those colors.

But yeah... they come with any battery purchase.

A slice cut in the side - How simply wonderful! Thanks for that.

OK, so you are my new hero. I can't believe I didn't think of that! *bows down*

I use the battery bag by knotting the closed end of it so the cart is near the top. I've used the same bag for months.

batt bag with a twistee in the middle works great for me....

I've realized that my Leaford Lanyard was not designed to be a spinning device, since I have trouble getting my carts out of the thing after spinning. Plastic bags don't work so well. I wish there was a spinning machine, or a more convenient way to spin carts while refilling.

What's the best way to spin? Or what tools make the best spinners for quick and accurate spinning and easy cart retrieval for filling more and spinning more?

I use an old prescription bottle with a paper napkin in it. I put a chain on mine but you could put anything for the string. I put two little holes in the top and attached the string to it. I spin then if I get to much in it I tear off a piece of paper napkin and soak up the excess. After I'm done I put the string inside the bottle with the cap on upside down, screw it on and everything is inside of it for storage. Works great.

Has V4L sent you any of those pull-tie velvet-feel baggie things? They always include one when I order batteries. I can't find a pic on their site of one.
Anyway, these work great. They fit 3 carts easily, 4 if you try. Condoms stay on perfectly.

The sock method mentioned above will work too, just use a mismatched sock you don't care about.
Another idea would be to use about 6" of an old nylon pantyhose stocking, foot end. You can usually find cheap pairs of nylon footies or knee highs too.

Perhaps the most entertaining way would be to fill up a bunch of cartos and put them in this guy's car:

That is what we are talking about with the battery bag They are wonderful for this I agree.

I usually refill about 20-25 carts at a time so I have lost all patience with spinning one cart at a time in the battery pouch. I can fit up to 5 carts w/condoms inside a plastic film canister or an empty prescription bottle and then I put the canister or bottle inside an eyeglass pouch with a drawstring and spin away!
Carts go in

film canister or pill bottle

and then inside of pouch

Instead of a pouch, this may work with a sock as well, and should work with knee-hi pantyhose for sure!

Here's a pic that shows battery bags (the bags underneath the batteries):

LOL, I can't take credit. I read it somewhere on the Taryn spin thread.

GREAT Video!!! He can spin my Carts any Time!! Thanks for sharing!

To be honest, I haven't needed to spin my cartos since I started using a syringe to fill them.

 

[TheVTech]

Yep the bags the batteries are sent in by V4L are PERFECT for using the Taryn Spin technique. I use this way daily and always have a charged cart ready to go. They are my go to for that for about 6 months now since I started refilling rather than vape and toss.

I broke in my lanyard finally after trying to jam 2 batteries in it at once. I can make a spin work well with it now, but I've found a better way.

After much trial and error I found out the best way to spin, no lanyard, no string, no battery bag, just my arm going in circles while jumping up and down on my bed yelling "centrifugal force! centrifugal force!" repeatedly, and then jumping off my bed for the final cartomizer body-slam/super-cart-pack against the floor with a giant thud (the large thud-like sound is essential for that final pack that puts all the juice at the bottom; apartment below me hasn't complained yet luckily); it works quite well, and I'm satisfied with the results! This is my way of spinning carts from here on in!
