Burning Cartomisers? Dangerous?-510/Kr808/4081...etc filler type cartos

[wegster]

Untrue, they do indeed fit on an E9 (proof in videos, stand by) There's a bit of slop, but they work fine.

Drew - been dripping on the GC already, working great so far :-)

Great reviews Wegster. Thanks for taking the time to compare the various two piece models of e-cigs & cartomizers, very informative.

So, to at least keep this somewhat OT, as a lot of info's been going into the G300 review thread...I still need to spend a few days with nothing but KR carts, and ripping them apart, will post those likely over the weekend at different numbers of inhales before breakdown.

The Greencig carts are a bit $, but...they don't burn, and are refillable via several methods. Here's one disassembled again. The O-ring comes from the mouthpiece end, and the piece in middle is a 'regular cart,' like the 510 or other cart, with normal poly fill inside.


This is what the cart innards look like with the mouthpiece and cart removed (yes, sorry, it's blurry..but note the shiny coil):



This is what the atty coil and 'mystery hair' wick look like, up close. Note this is after multiple days of use with refills via both methods, via drip from battery end, and cart removal/refill. No burning, although obviously the atty's getting a bit...crusty Have not tried to rinse, clean, dry burn this cart, may try later as an 'in-between' before refills vis disassembly and refill..

Well it has been 4 months since this thread has been brought up. Do KR808 cartomizers still burn their filling or has the factory fixed it?

Thats pretty wild with that group of hair in there. Reminds me of the old horse hair insulation they would use for electrical work in houses a long time ago.

Yes and No. I just opened 3 carts... Yes, they still burn. No, they haven't fixed it yet.

Yes, they still burn and no, the manufacturer hasn't changed the design. If you want to use a cartomizer which doesn't have this problem your only option is the Green Cig cartomizer. Yes, they are more expensive, but they can be refilled, thus making them a cost effective solution.
