    I got a GoTank from Discount vapers - having got a GoGo from GV - and really liking it. Carto's work best for me with Tobacco juice and the GoCarts do seem better than most for Flavour. I can discern more subtly if i put the same juice in a stardust or DD, but for Vapour Production and TH the GoTank wins - on an eGo-C Twist, with a Janty Kuwako - i'm getting a very 'Pipe-a-like' experience and a good texture to the Vape which i'm really enjoying.

    For subtly tho i'd have to agree, there are better options out there, the Stardust and VVN (at 2.8) for starters.

    I respect your experience but for the life of me I don't really know what the fuss is over the CE2. I have crusaded often that you don't HAVE to mod these. I made a video recently that shows me using Supremes right out of the box and enjoying with no modding whatsoever and I have done this on almost all Fluxomizers since I started vaping.

    Some mod possibly as they are using these on box mods or some such trying to push the voltage envelope possibly. I will say I vape exclusively on eGo style batteries and maybe toss in a unregulated 3.7v eGo or some such here and there. When you fully charge a 3.7v battery and it is unregulated you will get 4.1-4.2v on a full charge and yes, possibly you may need to loosen things up a bit as you are drying out the wicks much faster.

Reason being: You buy a boge or any filler carto, fill it, vape it. No break in no modding required. You buy a ce2 for example, the old fluxomizers. When you buy it you have to take off the cap, take off the flat seal, take off the cup seal, cut the notches bigger line it back up and place it back on (or dont use the big cup seal and stick with the small flat one). Then you have to fill it, and "break it in". granted once broken in the flavor and production is great. But I and many others dont want to do all that. I like how ce2's are pretty much rebuildable but they are too inconsistant. Out of all the carto's including the DC's, boge has been the best so far. I can deal with a little distorted flavor if it's going to work right out of the box for me.

    people swear by the stardust...I dont get it, i had 8 of them and had 0 luck with any of them. The vivi nova, very little luck with that.

    For me, carto's are the way to go. Until i find a ce2 that works out of box and doesn't require any type of modding or messing around for it to work.

    For fillered cartos the GoGo, is in my opinion, the best out there, which is why we carry them.

    "8 Stardusts and zero luck with any of them"

    ....what does that mean? I have at least a dozen of them, they all work great. I use them daily, and they last for weeks. Only problem I have seen is a couple of cracked tanks.....

    I pulled out one of my Boges for a test, and been vaping on it all morning with one of my favorite juices, it definitely doesn't taste as good to me as a Vision/Stardust and not as much vapor either. I guess this probably works better inside a tank...

    8 stardust and no luck meaning i get barely any flavor or TH. and yes i did break them in. Tried on various volts. Nothing. So I PIF'd them. Danno i watched your video when you first posted it. It was great. I even tried just filling and vaping without playing around but after a few vapes all i got was burning. It could be just me but like I said i have the worst luck with them. The Grande was the only one that worked really well from the start (when it wasnt leaking).

    Dont get me wring im not bashing the ce2 in any way at all. They are awesome products when they do work but the cartos are just easier right out of box.

    And as for gorilla juice in both carto and fluxo. Flavor was exactly the same. Finished off 2 fills in a fluxo and didnt notice a difference.

    I use cartos & boges. The flavor for me is about the same. I have only used the boges in a tank. I still prefer the stardust for ease of use. The stardust is still my favorite carto.

    i use both boge and ce2's including the phoenix xl and 3ml....oh and also used vivi novas, vision tanks and stardust.

    ive been using boges for 14 months straight.

    the fiddle factor on ce 2 type cartos comes in especially when you use a thicker juice. i have had very limited success with wicking on above mentioned carto style with thicker liquids (above 70pg/30vg).

    i have never had a taste distortion with boge cartos (maybe im not sensitive enough).
    the first phoenix xl i had put out more vapor than any carto i have ever tried, i rinsed and refilled it about 20 times...but now i cant make it work like it did in the beginning...and thats a pretty darn good life span of a carto, i have NEVER gone through 30mls of liquid in one single carto before, regardless of liquid.
    that being said, no other ce2 i have tried has worked out-of-the-box, always had to mod them one way or another for it to work right for me. most of them spit liquid in your mouth, which i havent experienced with a boge (i know it goes somewhere but it doesnt give me a liquid backwash when its condensing).

    i love the idea of a ce2 but if i had to have a fool proof vaping experience, i would grab a pack of unopened boges for the trip instead of a pack of ce2 type cartos. ive bought maybe 200 boges and havent had one bad carto....cant say that about clearos.

    i will continue to try a new product from time to time but until proven otherwise, boge will be the ones i "trust" the best...at this point.

    oh and the "filler taste" is much more pleasant than a dry hit

    You got me there, for sure...

    Though, in defense, I have to say that for all the Stardusts I have used, I only had dry hits with my fist one - learning curve. Usually they give plenty of warning that it's time to "dip the wick" before a full-blown dry hit.

    Right now I have 10 of them going at the same time, juices varying from Boba's and VV's "juice from hell" all the way to GV's CA which wicks wonderfully in anything - no dry hits in site!

    P.S.: yes, I know I sound like a rah-rah squad - but it's *true*, I swear!
