E-Cig Cartridges & Tanks

The great thing about e-cigarette tanks and cartridges is that, compared to other e-cig components, they don't need to be replaced very often. Plus, they are relatively inexpensive.

If you are using an actual cartridge with filler material, you may have to replace yours more often. Even if you clean the filler material, it eventually loses its shape and doesn't hold e-juice very well after too many cleanings.

If you are using tank cartridges, the holes eventually widen after being pulled off and inserted onto atomizer heads, which causes them to leak. That, or people chew on the tips and eventually mangle them.

Below, you will find the e-cigarette cartridges and tanks that we carry - all of which correspond to the e-cig starter kits that we sell. Underneath the product listings, you will find answers to questions we frequently get about e-cig cartridges and tanks as well as a few tips on how to fill and clean them.

E-Cigarette Cartridge & Tank FAQs & Tips

How Do I Fill an E-Cigarette Cartridge?

E-Cigarettes that use cartridges are more or less regarded as legacy devices. Despite the fact that there have been major advances in e-cigarette technology since the original electronic cigarette that used cartridges was invented, many folks prefer the fiber-filled old style cartridges to the newer tank or clearomizer models.

Filling an e-cigarette cartridge is really pretty easy. Simply hold the cartridge with the mouthpiece side facing down and apply drops of e-liquid to the cartridge one at a time until it looks like a slushy.

If you are using the small Joye 510 cartridges, they'll hold 10-12 drops of e-liquid. When you are "topping them off", it usually only takes 3-5 drops to get the slushy effect.

The larger, flat-tipped mega cartridges that fit eGo style e-cigarettes hold 40-50 drops of e-liquid. Topping off sessions usually involve 20-30 drops.

How Do I Clean an E-Cigarette Cartridge?

E-Cigarette cartridges with filler material can be cleaned fairly easily. Simply use a pair of tweezers or paper clip to remove the filler material. Then, rinse the filler with tap water (temperature doesn't matter) and then roll it back and forth in a paper towel until dry. Once dry, insert it back into the cartridge tube.

As you will discover, after a few cleanings, the filler material will lose its shape and won;t fit into the cartridge tube quite right. When this happens, you might very well get a mouthful of e-juice or it simply will not hold as much e-liquid as it used to.

Fortunately, e-cigarette cartridges are pretty cheap, so whether you elect to clean your cartridges or not, you won't be breaking the bank if you simply decide to purchase another five pack of them.

How Do I Fill an E-Cigarette Tank?

How you fill a tank cartridge depends on whether your e-liquid bottle has a needle tip on it or not. If your e-juice bottle has a standard tip, you will need to pry the cap off the end that is opposite the mouthpiece. Then, simply fill the tank almost all the way to the top and replace the cap.

It is much easier filling an e-cigarette tank with a needle tip bottle. Simply leave the cap on the tank cartridge, hold the mouthpiece end in your finger tips and insert your bottle's needle tip in the small hole in the end cap, filling it almost all the way to the top.

It is important to note that no matter how you fill your e-cig tank cartridge, it is imperative that you do not fill it all the way to the top. You need to leave a small air pocket unless you want a mouth full of juice!

How Do I Clean an E-cigarette Tank?

Cleaning a tank is about as simple as it gets. Simply remove the end cap from the end that is opposite the mouthpiece and run tap water through it. Shake the tank until the majority of excess water has been removed, replace the cap and refill it with the e-liquid of your choice!

What are the Rubber Caps That Come With Tanks For?

If you do not have a needle tip bottle, many folks find the rubber caps are much easier to remove and replace on their tanks. Some people claim that they seal better than the hard end caps, too (although I have not found that to be true).

Unfortunately, because they are soft, the rubber end caps tear fairly easily. Be very careful when you remove them or they won't last for very long!
