Clouds of Vapor Edition 2 Cartomizer in E-Cigarette Reviews; No fluff, right to it. First time so be easy.
Got mine from Clouds of Vapor and I will be ...
Got mine from Clouds of Vapor and I will be buying more.
510 style used on an eGo at 3.35v (tested via fluke)
Flavor used for testing: TV Atomic Cinnacide
Initial Rating (my personal opinion) Scale 1-5 where 1 sucks and 5 is "Buy"
I don't rate anything a 5, everything can be improved.
Material Quality: 4 Performance: 4 Value: 4 Shipping: 4 (note that the crap USPS crushed the package as usual) Ease of use: 4 (filling and using)
Placed order 7 August after 11pm- Received 11 August
Packaging:
As the photo suggests, the box looks better than most. Nice feel, quality feel and look to it. Labels include expiration date, strength options (if pre-filled) and brand name. Photo shows front and back of package.
Carto pack:
Comes 5 to a blister pack. Nice. Better than a baggy full of loose carts that look like they came from the back of a truck. They have the standard top and bottom condoms. The cartos look just like any other, black vinyl covering, standard fare here.
Instruction card:
Good quality instruction card, simple instsructions even though they're written in the standard broken English we've come to expect. I wish somebody would take a job as an editor/translator for those folks. Good products, but just damn with the bad literal translations. NOTE: When it says "Inject max 1ml" IT IS NOT JOKING. That's not a suggestion folks, that's a real warning. It took just less than 1ml for me. Fill easy and take it slow.
Included:
You get one filler adapter. It is a tiny flexible nylon hose on the end of a syringe tip. No needles necessary or recommended. This hose fits Perfectly into the carto holes and does the job. Use it.
Basic directions:
Follow the card. Photo shows top of carto looking in with the white plug removed. Two holes on either side of the interior are used for filling. Then you plug it back up, and go right to vaping.
Initial feeling:
JUST DAMN. These do draw a little lighter than some. I know there's difference in what people want there so you may have to plug the air holes or do whatever you do to change that. I don't mind it because it goes away with the eGo cone and it makes it a nice smooth draw. These work they way I expected them to.
Number of refills:
They suggest no more than 4. I have not refilled at this time so I will reserved judgement.
Final thought:
Glad I bought them. Will buy more when the stock is replenished. Hope they don't screw with this design.
*sorry for the pic sizes, forum rules. they were huge and sharpened till i had to resize for this.
**Yes, these are MY pics. Someone actually PM'd me to ask if I took those photos off the net. No. I did not. They are mine mine mine mine mine. Oh sorry, that's what I was telling my GF when she asked to use one of the new cartos.
***Note: lmrasch (and others) have mentioned that these cartos don't work on all mods. Please make sure to contact your seller and ask!!! Your responsibility to buy the right stuff kids. Manufacturers...friendly advice from your patrons, notate on your site what fits what!

Post back after you have had a chance to refill one a few times. Curious what the life span is of these cartos.
I have some of these and counted 16 fills before I finally burned it out. The one I'm using now is at 14 fills, hopefully it will pass 16. I haven't had any lost of vapor or taste. I'm using these at 6 volts on my GGTS. I think they are awesome.

Fantastic... 16 is a great number of refills.
Without mentioning who makes your e-Juice. What is the base?
What mg is the Nicotine?
Pure PG?
Pure VG?
Some percentage of both?
What color is the juice? Light Yellow, Yellow, Light Brown, etc
Sorry for all the questions but I doing a little informal research on the type of juice people use who have good luck with these new cartos.
