Trueman Cartos filling

[SuZamme]

Just received Trueman cartos on PIF co-op (thanks to tiburonfirst).

Here is what I have tried so far with good results.

One of them I filled threw the hold with a syringe and the other by taking off white disc.
The white disc comes off with patience and tweezers. Work it a little bit threw hole and then rotate it a bit and pry a little more, rotate and pry a little more until comes slightly out of the carto. It is then easy to pop it out the rest of the way with your nail.
It is a hardish plastic cap and not the soft round discs that other cartos have.
I filled it with too many drops but just blew some out and it works great.
I did let it "season" 5 hours and it really could use more time to really saturate the filler with flavor.
The other one I just put a needle syringe slightly in the hole and used about 1/2 ml to 3/4 ml of juice.
Let me know how yours works out as I am fairly new to the cartos and it is a trial and error, even after watching some of the videos on ECF.

i had asked suzamme to post this since mixitman was not able to get the endcap off his carto. i had tried it with one 510 and it did come off but it was slow going.
naturally, the 4081 users have the opposite problem, since they need to put their cartos together, lol


btw for all those who were curious how trueman responded to my email:

"Thank you for your feedback.
I am very sorry for these problems,pls see the following;
1.why did the 4081 cartos come unassembled?
just checked again,the engineer said because the 4081 blank cartomizer is different to re-fill liquid,
we seperate it into three parts.and you can jointe them together after re-filled.it's to make customers
feel easier to refill liquid"

Well at least they felt they had a good reason to send them in pieces. Didn't they realize that enough pieces for a 100+ cartomizer order would be rather ridiculous though?

Again I'm impressed you managed to sort through so much so quickly. Thanks for doing this for us.

well, they're full of it!!!!!
remember, i had placed a small trial order with them back in may and received my 4081 cartos fully assembled, lol. so much for their reasoning!

With the 4081 I dripped a few drops from the top then filled a condom from the 510 carto half full and used the condom fill from the battery end. When I saw the liquid come up through the middle I blew it out gently, wiped it down and started vaping immediately... no problem.

With the 510 cartos I'll just do the condom fill and let it sit for a few minutes then add a few drops more. Or shake it like a thermometer towards the battery end with both ends covered with a paper towel, then add more until I see it come through the top. Gently blow it out and wipe it down good. I usually do let them sit for a few minutes before vaping, but I didn't with the 4081 and it worked fine right away. Lovin' it!!

Once you get the cap off, I've been just dripping down, can start to tell when its full with practice.

That's my way and I'm sticking to it for now!

I did a few filling trials as well since these are going to my dad, and I have been VERY pleased with the outcome. Granted, I'm going to have to teach him how to use cartomizers, but if you have ever dealt with the 4081 carts, you already know how much easier a carto will be!

I know you are probably tired of hearing me say this Tib, but again, Thank You for coordinating this co-op!

NEEDLE-NOSE PLIERS

Best thing so far for me. The tweezers and other things were very scary/dangerous IMO because they usually didn't fit inside the hole well, so then you were scraping the plastic to get it inside.

My pliers didn't fit perfectly, but with just a tad of messing around, I got one of the sides in. After that it was VERY easy to just pull out.


WARNING: I believe while this was done (I was trying all sorts of other things first so it was pretty messy) the biggest problem I had (I didn't seem to be breaking anything) was pieces of plastic falling inside. Since you can't see them against the cotton very well, make sure you look inside well, and blow out to be on the safe side. Definitely don't want a tiny piece of that plastic cap inside your juice...

On the 4081's....

Been vaping on my first one off and on for two days now.

I like that they are cool. So far, drag has remained the same, vapor production same, and taste the same. I'll take it apart when I'm done with it to look at the burn status.

I use auto batts and one upside I didn't think of before regarding the adapter I bought is it's going to be a lot harder for over fill juice to get in the batt...it's got to travel all the way through the adapter first. I overfilled once and it leaks out the side instead of traveling down.

So that's my thoughts on them so far.

Question: Where in the US can you buy these same cartos?

i sure wish i knew!!!!

i really liked them from the start but with my individual order the ems shipping was quite a bit. with the co-op, the slap-happy packing was more than i would ever like to handle again.
after i recuperate i might send another email to trueman cs

Thanks Tib. I get so mixed up on all those different cartos reading the Burning Carto thread that I can't keep them all straight.

For some reason I thought these were at Good Prophets but at a higher price obviously. Guess not.

we are not sure yet, i sent 2 to ww for comparison, she also has the gp cartos. will let you know what i find out.
i really don't think there is more than 1 or 2 chinese factories involved in the production of cartos

katya had a trueman and gp, and did not think they were the same

 

[Neo]

Thank you Tib.

At least I know I'm not totally crazy about the possible GP connection now.

Nice synopsis!

The 4081's arent for me...if anyone wants more , i have mine up for sale in the classifieds along with 2 adapters.

Loving the 510 carto's tho.

Thanks Tib...for this awesome co-op you did for us !
