I don't know if this is already out there but I haven't seen it anywhere. Remove carto from btty, remove stopper and stand carto on some kitchen roll. Gently push a cocktail stick into the centre tube of your carto at the stopper end (not battery end) and then fill to the top with juice. Give a few seconds to soak in and then add more as required. Any over-fill can be poured back into your juice bottle. Remove cocktail stick, replace stopper, vape! Notes: Some of my cartos leak a little juice from btty end when full some don't. Snap your cocktail stick in half and fill two cartos at once!v

Using the condom method the first time works better, after that just add a drop or two as required.

What's the condom method? And I didn't know about using the cocktail stick. Does it matter if juice gets in there a bit?

Watched about 20 vids showing different ways round, amount to fill, etc. It may 'work better', I Just don't like it. Anyway I would like to apologise for sharing my tip in the tips board. P.s. I must have missed your thread on carto filling for people with osteo-arthritis in their hands, could you post the link?

Also I believe you should blow through the carto from the battery end after filling to clear any juice.

I don't use the condom method. Too messy. I tend to drip a few drops in the tiny "battery-end" hole (6-8?) then turn it upside down and get cracking on the other end. Since I tend to use PG + VG liquids more these days (70/30 or 50/50) I find the soaking in time has gone up. I also now count the drops.....after one disaster when I filled only from the mouthpiece end, thought it was full and then burn-out... > Hence using both ends....
