Why waste space with the straw mod?

So, I've seen lots of posts on here regarding the straw mods. And while they seem to work quite well, I do see one down side. Albeit not much, that straw is taking up valuable real estate. Here's my alternative:

While it may not be the most convenient at times, if you fill up a few carts in advance, it should work like a charm. Johnson Creek includes a 3cc syringe with their starter kits. In addition to some pretty good juice, you get this handy dandy filling tool. I've found that I get a completely full cart without the hassle of having to cut the straws.

Now, obviously, walking around with a syringe may not be the most convienent, but if you prefill 4-5 carts at home, that should last a whole day at work. (Or, if you are like me and were the last person on the company payroll that smoked and since you "quit" everyone's health insurance premiums went down and you can use that as leverage to get away with whatever vaping needs you have thorughout the day and can fill up at your desk).

At any rate, just my $.02

Enjoy!

Pre filling a few carts is a good idea, but still not as effective as the straw mod. While the straw mod does use up a little space with the straw, it is far less than the cart fillinf that comes with the carts. Plus the cart filling holds a lot of the juice at the bottom of the cart and will never get to the atty. With the straw mod, all of the juice gets to the atty. This makes a single filling last about as long as 3-4 standard carts.
 
S'okay, there's enough info here to make your head spin! I have to say, though, that JC syringe scares me to death. I'm always afraid I'm gonna jab myself, and I have a feeling subcutaneous nicotine is not healthy!

I've got a mild case of tremors, so I have to really watch myself. After you get a system figured out, it's pretty simple though. My wife is still a bit weirded out by it though :)

I use the blue foam plug slyle just cut it with a v shaped tail that goes deep into cart, plus I use a small pair of hemos so it fits a little tighter so it does not leak or slide in away from atomisor bridge. Plus a lot easyer to clean cart, you know they do need to be washed out depending on use. Works for me and no springs or straws to pull out to clean!
