I popped the top off one earlier when I'd emptied one. Off with the top cap, off with the inner. I was expecting to be confronted with filler. But no, it's an empty chamber with a plastic column in the middle. I'd imagined with all the talk of syringes I'd see something completely different.

I tentatively dripped a few drops in and it worked fine.

What do you see?

Did you take the two inner caps off, then I guess you would have to cut the plastic to get through to the filler.

At the risk of extremely mixed metaphors, there's a nipply thing in the middle you need to thrust your syringe though :p

It is sealed, so break through with the needle?

On one of my recent Xl cartos the middle section's two holes still had moulding on them and I had to break those those too, I use a very very thin drill bit, twisting with my hand to get through, my blunt needles are too thin and would bend trying to break through.
It's been widely acknowledged that smoking is a leading cause of statistics.

There are tiny Gypsies living in mine. I'll keep an eye on them though they're not really doing any harm and live and let live, I say.

I tried that but it was significantly windier, I prefer the tougher draw with it in.
