Electric cigarette cartridges are the part of an e cig that hold the vapor producing e juice. When a cartridge dries out, it puts out little to no vapor and every drag begins to taste like you are "smoking" a sock. If you did not purchase a bottle of e liquid with your Joye 510 Electric Cigarette Starter Kit, you will fly through the cartridges that come with the kit quite quickly. You can purchase e cig juice here!
Whether you just need to top off the Joye 510 electric cigarette cartridge you are using, completely fill a blank one or you want to replace the old e juice with a new one, the steps outlined below will help you get the most out of your Joye 510 cartridges.
Filling Your Joye 510 Electric Cigarette Cartridges with E Juice
If you have a bottle of e juice, you can "top off" a Joye 510 electric cigarette cartridge you are using or you can fill an unfilled cartridge.
- Topping Off Your Joye 510 Electric Cigarette Cartridge: Topping off a previously filled Joye 510 electric cigarette cartridge is easy. Remove the cartridge from the atomizer and look down at the gauzy filler material from the side that was connected to the atomizer (the big hole side). Simply add one drop at a time until it looks like a "slushy." When adding drops, remember:
- If it still looks like a piece of gauze, it needs at least one more drop.
- If it looks like a small pond, there is one drop too many (not a big deal).
- If it looks like a "slushy," it is perfectly filled.
- Filling a Brand New Unfilled Joye 510 Electric Cigarette Cartridge: You can use the same method described above for filling a brand new Joye 510 electric cigarette cartridge. Unfortunately, it takes awhile for the e-liquid to travel all the way to the bottom of a completely dry cartridge and you may get a few "false slushies" while the air bubbles work their way out and the liquid makes its way all the way to the mouthpiece side of your electric cigarette. The best way to fill a brand new Joye 510 electric cigarette cartridge is to use a paper clip or pair of tweezers and remove the gauzy filler from the cartridge. Then, fill the empty plastic tube about 3/4 of the way and gently push the gauze back down into the cartridge tube on top of the e juice you just put into it. You can then top off the cartridge, adding one drop at a time until it looks like a "slushy." If you were a bit overzealous and put too much liquid in, you can mop up any excess liquid that might ooze out with a paper towel.
Cleaning A Joye 510 Electric Cigarette Cartridge
At some point in time, all Joye 510 electric cigarette cartridges begin to function poorly because the gauzy material inside becomes frayed or deformed. When this happens, you really need to replace the cartridge. Contrary to the instructions that come with many kits, however, cartridges do not necessarily need to be thrown away when they start to turn brown. You can clean a Joye 510 electric cigarette cartridge, restoring it to its "brand new" state quite easily by doing the following:
- Using a paperclip or pair of tweezers, pull the filler material out of the cartridge tube.
- Rinse the filler for a few seconds with tap water by holding it under a faucet (any temperature water will do).
- The filler material should now be snowy white.
- Roll the filler material back in forth in a paper towel, squeezing out the water. Keep doing this until it no longer leaves a wet spot on the paper towel.
- Tuck the gauzy filler material back into the tube and fill with e cig juice utilizing one of the two methods described above.
