I love the ease of the condom fill method. I will fill 20 or so washed cartos at a time and use them throughout the week. Well iv only been at this for about 2 months so im still refining my process but in that time iv learned what to expect from my cartos, there full potential so to speak. Well about 2 weeks ago i started vaping on a carto filled just a couple days earlier and it was a little dry. So I took the cap off and was able to get 5 or 6 more drops in it. Looked at others filled using the condom fill method and thoes too could hold more liquid. To me there is a big difference in flavor of my cartomizers in thoes 5 or 6 drops. So I now have a new weekly fill routine...ugh

1. Condom fill method on all 20 cartos, wipe them downand set them aside
2. Taryn spin all 20 cartos, wipe them down and set them aside
3. Pop the cap and add 5 to 6 more drops to all 20 cartos, wipe them down and set them aside
4. Put on a clean white plug and cap the ends with clean condoms on all 20 cartos

And its that easy!! Good thing the weekend comes complete with two full days:blink:

when you get to the bottom, you go back to the top of the slide, then you stop and you turn and you go for a ride...

I'm still looking for my "method". Right now I just add drops to my cartos while I'm on the computer whenever I think about it. Hold on . . . 7, and 8. OK, that should be good for the next 20 minutes until it is all soaked in, LOL.

lol Well I know its not that bad, is that a Siouxsie & The Banshees refrence or the Beatles?

Ya I "top off" the cartos if Im at home too. This is just my method to cram as much juice in a new carto as i can.

I tried carto's but can't be bothered to deal with them. I always want to keep topping them off (like carts) to get that fresh vape and flavor.

Dripping is great but only at certain times and places.

I found some kind of juice feeder was the best way to go for my daily vaping. I was looking at bottom feeders but for me it's my pump mods. The cart filler is always wet and each puff is like it was just dripped. The bottle holds about 8ml and last me at least a couple days.

Sorry I can't help with a better way to fill your cartos... everyone's always looking for a better way to do it.... You're using all the tricks I've heard of but you didn't mention a syringe.. I've never tried it but that's what some mfgrs recommend and seems like you'd be able to squeeze the max amount in but I guess if it were that easy.......

Any method is better than the analog method!

Either, heck, add Bono in there too. :laugh: But I'd rather listen to Siouxsie out of the three.

If I'm not in hurry to use it I use the condom method and let it set in the liquid overnight, that give the filler time to soak the liquid all the way through. That's what I usually do if I'm filling a bunch up for the week, gets them all done at once.

If I'm wanting to use it now I'll fill with either the condom or drip method till it doesn't hold anymore, vape it for at least 20 min or so and top it off again till it doesn't hold anymore

The taryn spin works great if you want to get the most liquid in it that you can fast, it forces the liquid into the filler rather than letting it soak naturally.

I used to do the condom trick, but it's quite messy and you don't have that fresh vape after a few vape as capecodjim said.

I tried the taryn spin only twice, takes way too much time and you kind of look silly doing it lol :)

Now my new method for the last month is pop off the top of the cartomizer and threw it away, I bring my PV and a bottle of juice and drip directly in it, no mess, always a fresh vape, just takes a few seconds to drip between 2 and 4 drops in it, no need to remove the top since there's none anymore. I also find that there's no more juice in my mouth with this method. Of course if you're driving long distance it might not work though.

Hmmm. I've never experimented with a carto but I recently found out that with regular attys you can remove the bridge and get more flavor and vapor.
