So - while travelling, there's a tank or two that won't be coming with.
What would be better - vape it down nearly empty, or leave it full-o-juice, as far as likelihood it will pick up right where I left it?
I saw a post that said "the clock starts ticking" as soon as you prime a carto - in which case, I guess it doesn't matter much, the life will be shortened when I return. But any advice on whether I should "keep it wet," or is that just risking more juice?
We're talking less than a week...

blu , enjoy , etc. , they all sit full

when you buy carts, they have a 'prime' fluid in them

putting the 'power' to them is what removes the life

when I sit a cart aside, I put the condoms back on so to keep the juice inside fresh/dirt out

so I would say you would be fine leaving them sit, mine has been when I do...

As long as there's no vacuum applied, a filled carto tank can sit for... well, I've got an IBT/Ikenvape tank that's been sitting for over 2 weeks that I just put into service... and it's working just fine.

If you buy IBT tanks, they come shipped in a "thingy" bottle. A great place to store them in (and prime a carto).
I imagine, with the slight pressure increase created when you screw on the lid, it would allow you to store a full tank almost indefinitely. A pill bottle has a similar effect.
