Rebuilding / Revamping cartridges...The right stuff(ing) lololol...Yeah, I know...that was dumb.

This video explains how to revamp e-cig cartridges that have worn out the filler material. It seems that the filler breaks down over time and will fall apart. This is a tutorial on what to buy and how to revamp your dead carts on the cheap.

What about using cotton? It seems to work pretty well

[terraphon]

I've only tried cotton once and it didn't wick properly. It held about 90% of the juice I put in it and wouldn't deliver it to the atomizer.

[1OrangeOctave1]

I'm confused by the term "wick". I have been vapeing for 2 weeks now so alot of this is new to me. I notice when I hit the cartridge with the cotton it has a good throat feel the first couple of tries. Then after that I get the vape still however not that heavy feeling I crave. Would the material you use work better to deliver that feeling more consistently?

[terraphon]

The term "wick" refers to the liquid traveling from the cartridge material in to the atomizer. A candle "wick" "wicks" wax to the flame as a fuel source. In this case we're talking about the juice flowing in to the metal bridge and then in to the atomizer itself. See, also; capillary action.

Thanks for you reply and your help. I am currently using you exact method and very very pleased with the results. Using cotton seemed like a good idea however you were right it was absorbing too much and not wicking. You have saved me a lot of money

[terraphon]

Awesome! Very glad I could help. If you ever have any other questions, let me know and I'll do what I can to answer them.

i think you should use a heatproof absorbant material or you could be vaporizing the synthetic fibres and this could pose a seriouse health risk, just because it looks the same, it's neccesaraly the same material, i'm sure the origional fibres are heat proof, does anyone know the answer?

i just researched and found that polyester, when burnt, creates fumes that are toxic. i just bought some polyester and now i'm gonna return it =x

dude check out my vid on the wadding i found the exact same stuff they use at manufacture just be sure to wash the wadding in pure alcohol before you use it as they put anti-allergy anti-bacterial stuff on the fiber wool or wadding as its called.

@1OrangeOctave1 Cotton cant handle the temperature if it gets hot, titan atomizers get HOT. Use the same stuff that the Chinese manufacturer use, i do check out my vid

[drmgiver]

And how long will that last using 6 drops? Certainly not as long as the original cartridge?

[seniorsmoker]

Hi, I've been watching some of your videos tryin to save a little $, and i want to know if you or anyone else knows what ecig to use that works outside. I'm a multitasker who puffs away while working outside all the time, and these silly things don't like being outside. And by the way, my filler is a sponge, and i've tried the polyfil and it does work, but i have a habit of keeping the smoke in my mouth and puff all the time.

Oh, for those who do not know, cotton and polyester are two different things NOT two of the same.

[DAGUERROTIPIA]

i use that fish tank filter stuff seems to work fine no weird taste or smell lol

[eatrocksah]

couldn't u just tear some outta your couch or car seat?

@metaphysikz101 most-likely, yes.
