E-lites refill

[mrbass401]

Hey there peeps. I have only just started vaping, having bought E-Lites at my local shopping centre. I was chatting online in here yesterday, and it was suggested that e-lites were actually refillable. I removed the cap, and inside found a tube down middle, and i wondered if the e-liquid was put down that tube, or outside the tube? I expect it is obvious to any old hands on here, but I am just a newbie.

many thanks
Paul

Hey Paul, if the carts are like normal ones then you don't want to fill that middle hole (will dribble out of the bottom), instead you need to drip onto the polyester surrounding that hole, 12 - 14 drips should be enough to fill it. Juice can be bought from many vendors on here, take a look at the vendors area and pick something you like the sound of

Cool... thanks Tim. What a dumbass I am... lol....

Do you have any suggestions??? or should I go for a "pick and Mix" to try a few different ones out?

Paul, Tim is right You need to drip e-liquid into the wadding & avoid the hole down the middle

You should be able to refill the e-lite cartomisers (I think e-lites call them tips?) 3 or 4 times before they start to wimp out. Once you get close to using them all up, it really would be cheaper for you to buy a different (& better) epcig

The caps are made a bit tighter on the E lite cartridges,but once off you just drip onto the filler material around the center hole,like a normal cart,I always found the liquid they used originally in them,made the next fill a bit yucky,so try something strong

You aren't a dumbass at all Paul, the main reason we are here is for folks to ask any kind of questions

It's really hard to recommend e-liquid flavours as all our tastes are different. So it would be a good idea to go for a pick & mix to begin with. Vape escape's pick & mixes are good & you can use discount code allabout for 10% off -

If you look at grizwalds range of juices here www.vapeescape.co.uk/search.asp?types=Grizwald%27s+Gourmet+Range
He does various pick n mixes here www.vapeescape.co.uk/search.asp?types=Grizwald%27s+Gourmet+Range+%3E+Pick+%27n%27+Mix
and if you leave a note in the comment box he might throw in a spiky thing to make filling easier.

While on his site, take a look at his kits, they come highly recommended.

Im a dumbass. forgot to mention the dissie code. well done Chrissie.

Use a fork or paperclip to get the silicon bung out and might be better off getting a drip tip rather than replacing the bung. Makes for a cooler draw.

Think the E lite cartridge is fatter than normal so finding a correct drip tip may be a problem,think I cut a piece of cartomizer end cap to make a 501 drip tip fit

Well peeps, I sent off for pic and mix yesterday. Must admit, I just had a total guess at flavours... lol..... and sure enough, they arrived this morning. I am well impressed with the delivery!!
I ordered the following flavours: Golden Burginia, Cookies, Black Cat, Caramel Tabac, and Red Dog. Any comments about the flavours I have ordered?

Put about 5-6 drops in one tip, of Golden Burginia, and reasonably happy with taste. Until I can order another Kit, just alternating tastes will have to do...

Make sure you put enough liquid in, the top of the wadding inside the carto should resemble a slush puppie. Then get a paper towel and gently blow through the cartomiser into the towel to remove any excess, wipe and put on your e-cig and you're good to go!


Here's a video, the principle is the same, just drip the liquid in if you don't have a condom.

Black Cat seems a popular one round here!!

[Karma]

+1 for the Black Cat

[mrbass401]

I think I chose Black Cat, as it reminded me of a cigarette brand in the 80's. Havent tried it yet, only tried Golden Burginia. Quite nice..... think I will try black cat next though.
