Have any of the suppliers (eg eastmall or V4L) actually confirmed this to be true? Apologies if I seem insistent, its just that I'm about to place quite a large order and don't want to be disappointed. Any insight from past customers in regards to the quality of eastmall's cartomizers would be great.

YES.. find a vendor you like but they are all the same carts and batteries!
Aside form the kr808 do they carry what you want and need?

(Sorry, I'm new, and so cannot post links, pictures, start threads, etc., etc., etc.)

If anyone can provide enlightenment regarding this, please do - and Thank You!!!

The KR808D is it =) The Vapor King oddly enough is a 510 lol!

I've noticed that there are 2 different packaging formats - white cardboard boxes of 5, and blister-packed strips of 5. Anyone know which are older/newer, or any other difference.

I've also been curious about Eastmall as they sell 50 cartos for 49.95, and if they indeed are the same -- why pay more? Has anyone bought those?

and I guess the other humor would be that vaporkings.com is a supplier that is currently carrying kr808 model and calls it Kr808D-1 two piece AND sells other models DSE801,DSE901,etc,etc The CraaZZZy world of no copyrights hehe

CSteve maybe this will enlighten you

Kanger made a few different ecig batteries in the D series(the part that lights up when you inhale the ecig)

KR808D-1
KR808D-2
KR808D-3
KR808D-W with manual switch

I am kind of lazy to search for the exact sizes of each,,I am sure someone else will chime in on that hehe

ANYWAY the KR808D cartomizers the other part of the 2pc model will fit on either of the above mentioned batteries(depending on the generation of the battery slotted or non slotted of course thats another thread in itself hehe)

The link that you provided seems to sell their 2pc model at sort of a high price for a basic kit.....look at other threads in the KR808 model sub-forum for recommended suppliers of the KR808 2pc...I am sure you won't be dissapointed.

[needvapor]

Thank you for clearing that up! =)
You rock!

Slightly confusing, eh? Then to make matters worse, there is a vendor called Vapor Kings, which carries the 510 and is now getting the KR808D! Makes the head spin...

Uk supplier.

Hello I have mentioned this supplier in another post but thougth I would mention it in this thread for those in the UK seeking a KR808d-1 and not wanting to go purchase from overseas. I think this is the only UK supplier, I have searched around a fair bit, as this model appears to be growing in popularity I would seize on while you can. Stock of batteries seems to be an issue both here and in the US.

Sorry can't post url just yet.

I was aware they were rather pricey, and so interested in carts and batteries from other vendors! But I'm sure not complaining about getting a basic kit for free from a friend as a present!!

Others I have gotten seemed dry tasting and didn't last as long. (And I am not the only one who feels that way) Also, there is more of a variety of flavors and nicotine strengths at V4L. I always vape the 0 or low nic cartos at night, and save the 18's for daytime vaping. That alone sells me on V4L. As I mentioned before, I have gotten good customer service with other vendors, but V4L kicks it up a notch. You could check some of the vendors forums to find out what their customers are saying about them before buying.

One thing I am sure of - you will love your KR808 no matter where you get it from! Good luck and happy vaping!

(By the way - V4L is trying out vendors other then Kanger for cartos, and is going to be getting some VG cartos in soon)

I did have a look through eastmall's forum but most reviews were in regards to e-juices. Are the juices are an indication on the taste/quality of the cartomizers? As I'm buying them for a few friends who have never used or heard of e-cigs, I wanted to get them cartomizers so they didn't have the inconvenience of refilling. Although I know refilling isn't too hard, I just wanted their first experience to be fuss free.

I have seen the level of customer service provided by V4L and have ordered from them (although I haven't received it yet as it has to travel half way around the world ). However, because eastmall is doing a very good sale atm (see quote below) and free shipping for orders over $200, I just wanted to explore this avenue and take advantage of the sale.

NoMorButts4Me- yeah I've noticed that about the packaging too, V4L is blister packs if I'm not mistaken and eastmall's seem to be cardboard boxes (but black).

So if anyone has had any experience with cartomizers & juices from various KR808D-1 vendors, I would love to hear what you have to say! I'm not necessarily asking if eastmall's are better or worse than other vendors, just wanted to know they are decent and that you'd recommend buying the carts (if they weren't on sale). I'm particular interested in ordering the menthol from eastmall... or if you have a favourite flavour cart/juice from eastmall then I'd love to hear that too.

JenJen: Firstly, thanks for answering! Also, has your experience with eastmall's carts been dry tasting? Or are you referring to another vendor?

Sorry about the long post guys, forgive my ignorance. I'm totally new to the e-cig concept and a non-smoker, so I really don't know what considerations need to be taken to assess flavour or cartomizers.
