Carto tanks.

[hissie]

I bought a couple of the tanks that take a regular boge carto.

Problem I have with them is they are very difficult to slide up or down the carto to re-fill or remove.

Anyone got any tips that can help me with this?

Put it on a old ego battery and slide the tank up to fill?

1. Press against the table (the battery end)
2. Press the carto a bit deeper with an drip tip
3. Fill
4. Press it back up
5. Clean

I mainly use the tanks with my LT macca.

Sometimes they slide up ok, then other times they won't budge. If it sticks & I try to push, I end up getting a hand ful of e-juice.

Check the vid.. And try to get your carto lined aprox the same with the 1-2-3 I wrote = profit.

Thanks yak. Although I personally wouldn't re-fill the tank via the battery end.

If you put it on a ego sized battery you will be able to hook forefinger and middle finger underneath the tank and put your thumb on the drip tip and slide the tank up in a controlled way..Something you can't do an a LT..

1. If you do it right it's better way
2. You can always just vipe the connector
3. No need to blow overflown juice out of the center of the carto
4. I've done it this way for 6months now without one problem (but that's just me)
5. FAST... I can fill the tank with this in 30sec and get it back up and running in less then 1min from the start.

I will give that a try macca. It's the tightness of the tank around the carto that's the main issue.

Hissie when you put a new carto in a tank do you lubricate it? Wiping a bit of the juice onto the outside of the carto helps it come out smoother to refill

Thanks Yakouesei you solved my problem with it as I always filled from the top before with a DCT tank but obviously struggled with this tank I have that fits the normal sized Boges.

Thanks for the video yak. I might give your method a try

No I don't oneday. However, shouldn't the carto be lubricated when it's in a full tank?

The bit inside the tank will be, but the bit that goes thru the top grommets will be dry and this is where they can 'catch'
