What do you do with your wet cartos while in rotation?

I usually have anywhere from 4 to 10 wet cartos, all with different juices, on hand at all times. The cartos that I'm not vaping I will seal up with the soft tip and the 2 condoms (top and bottom) then I put each sealed carto into separate small plastic zip lock baggies which I label with the juice flavor and sometimes the ohms. I can then stand them up in a box with the battery end down. This way I can easily thumb through them to find the flavor that I'm looking for. I do clean some of them once in a while but I'm not really into the cleaning thing that much right now. I usually just get new cartos when needed. So I'm curious, how do other vapers keep their "in use" cartos, tanks, or clearomizers? How many do you keep wet at one time?

I read on another thread to look on ebay for aa/aaa battery cases, and they will work perfectly for storing cartos. I have ordered a bunch of them. Go to ebay and search for "Battery Storage Case Box for AA AAA Battery". They are very inexpensive. They are approx. 2 1/2" square, 5/8" high. Supposedly, you can fit 4 in each case. I can't wait to see how they work out. I am going to post a pic when mine come in. They're coming from China, so who knows when they'll get here? This is what they look like. I also write on my black cartos with a silver sharpie for flavor id and cover with a small piece of scotch tape, so the writing won't wear off.

That looks like a good idea. I would imagine that you would be able to stand the battery case up on it's side so you can have the battery end of the carto pointed down.

Believe it or not, the cases came in the mail today! I really like them! I was afraid they'd be a cheap hard plastic, but they are actually quite nice, a nice flexible plastic. Even the echo e's fit in them if you point the cartos in opposite directions. And, yes, you could stand the case up on it's side, although I have usually just thrown my cartos in a bowl in a drawer, so this is a step up for me, lol!

This is great for me because I am a flavor junkie, and I have lots of cartos with different juices in them.

I use a plastic ammo holder that holds 50 with the condoms on. I label them with a Brother labeler so i don't forget what's what. When I'm running out of the house, I just grab some and go, usually putting them in my pocket so knowing what is in them helps. If I remember, I use a small battery box to protect them.

I don't take any special care of them. I don't label them. Full ones get the condoms put back on. Partially full ones (if I remove one before it is empty) roll around my desk until I put them back on and finish them.

I only put flavors I already know I like in my cartos, so I don't really care that much about being able to tell them apart until it's time to refill/top off. - I usually don't clean cartos so occasionally I end up mixing flavors. Luckily, I rarely find a residual flavor that makes the next one taste bad. When I do, I just throw it away.

I don't even segregate different kinds of cartos because I only use two kinds and they look different from one another.

Right now, I count 4 full ones, 5 partially full ones, and 3 in use on PVs on my desk. I could probably guess at the flavors and be right more than half the time. Sometime before I go to bed, I'll top off the ones that are in use and maybe one of the loose ones on my desk so I'm set for tomorrow.

AFAIC, they're all in rotation. :)

I got this free swag gift from Gene at NiteLiteVapor with my Bounty Hunter order last week.
I plan on ordering many more of these, they're only $2.00 something.

I can't think of a more convenient way to store my dcc's, I love this thing.
Whether I'm grabbing one to take with me or storing in a desk drawer, these things ROCK!.

Got my Boba's, Bounty Hunter, BlackJack (get your mind out of the gutter :laugh:), Mango Mint Julep, and Wild Blue Juice in there right now.

It fits 4 comfortably, you can get 5 in there with a bit of squeeze.

Thanks Gene and NiteLiteVapors, You Guys Rock!

Dayna over at sweet-vapes sent me one of these with my sample pack order couple days ago! I was pretty supprised too, considering the sample pack was only $9 for 5x3ml bottles!

These things are AWESOME! I can fit 3 cartos and a small vial (3ml) of juice or two in this thing, clip it on my keychain and go.... so awesome, dayna rocks.


And btw, you have to try her snickerdoodle .. omg, you know how when you smoke cigs people can smell you from a mile away? Well I was toking some snickerdoodle.... girlfriend comes home and gets SO MAD at me.. starts yelling at me

"Did you bake cookies and not leave any for me? WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU .......?"

I had to explain to her that my sample pack from sweet-vapes came in hahaha
