DAYVAPE Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 (edited) So I have tried several different 'carto tanks' since they first arrived on the vape scene... and I never really could get them to pull in the perfect amount of juice to properly soak the filler. Well, I have been playing around with one tonight and tried something random with it... and it works like a champ now! I mean, it literally draws in the perfect amount of juice as I vape normally... finally a happy day with a carto tank. I did something so ridiculously simple that I'm nearly embarrassed to say what it was! So, I started off using a carto with a single punched hole, and it never really was consistent. After making the hole a bit larger, I would have to take several hard drags w/o firing the device, just to get a tiny bubble to appear showing me that juice was in fact now entering the carto. I then grabbed a sewing needle and simply poked it into the hole right about an 1/8" - 1/4" deep. Let me just tell you... folks, this has completely solved any and all problems I was having before. I am getting the perfect amount of juice drawn in now... it's amazing what a little prick of a needle can do. I'm sure this 'secret' has been discovered long ago... but I never read up enough to run across it anywhere. So, it is with much debate, that I decide to share this with any fellow vapers that give a crap! Who knows... maybe you are one those people that is having the same issue that I was, and if so you should give this a shot. LOL.

bobthesalesclerk Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 I got my j tank to wick perfectly once. My trick was to punch two big holes on either side and then punch 2 very tiny holes right underneath of the 2 big ones. For some reason this allowed juice to flow in perfectly. I have been thinking about purchasing an m1a1 to givenit another shot. sent from my Ice Cream Sandwiched Gtablet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GPurv Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 @DV: I never ran into that problem, although I've heard it alot. I know you prime your new carts but I'm sure some people don't. I've only used carto tanks on a Provari. Have you looked at, tried or know of anyone that has been using the Big Daddy Vapes stainless steel tanks? I just put down $60 for one last night and hoping that it won't crack. http://bigdaddyvapor.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=12&products_id=53 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
