Smoke51
Noob questions here. Are there other cartridges that will work with out Smoke 51? More important my husband is a menthol smoker and is not satisfied with the menthol flavor of this product. Since we just recently mad the investment I don't really want to buy new kits. any suggestions would be appreciated.

You menthol smokers sure are picky. When I used to be a menthol-only smoker.. if I couldn't get one, I'd smoke a regular cigarette and throw a menthol cough-drop in my mouth.... 
From my understanding of your post.. You want to try a different brand's menthol cartridge that may taste better? Cartomizer, actually. Your cartridges have the atomizer built into it.
From the LeCig.com website:
808D-2 Cartomizers | Compatible with LeCig D2, Smoke 51 DUO, Green Smoke, E9, Bloog, and other 808D-2 style batteries.
Go here:
http://lecig.com/D2refillcartomizers.aspx
and pick your strength. Seems LeCig has a lot of flavor offerings there for the 808D-2.
Personally, I'd buy a different e-cig. Never liked the idea of disposable cartomizers. I've only been doing this for 4 days but... I can tell it'd become a major pain in my butt after 2 weeks.

Hey now, I don't do menthol, but yeah my husband does tend to be a bit fussy.

Actually some of what I said can be wrong..
is this a Smoke51 Duo or Trio?
and boyyyyyyyyyyyyy are they a rip-off.
I just saw the prices. Good God!

I have a smoke51 duo which i really love. You can buy cartomizers but please be aware that most vendors do not carry the correct ones to fit. The smoke51 duo is compatible with these models: LeCig D2, Green Smoke, E9, and Bloog. (I personally use the D2 cartomizers from LeCig and they carry empty ones too)
I would highly recommend to buy a juice to refill. Sorry i dont do menthol so cant recommend one for your husband. You can find a lot more information and reviews on different menthol here:

Here is a thread with a lot of information about the particular model you own and pictures so you can verify it.

i have never understood why people are anti-cartomizer.
they perform well , have amazing flavor , are refillable and cost $7 - $8 for a 5 pack.
one single 510 or 801 atomizer will cost you more than that , and cartomizers last just as long.

Hey Grimm,
I'm not particularly anti-cartomizer, but more pro-refill.
From your own words regarding the Greencig:
"not just a PITA , an insane , nearly impossible PITA to re fill."
And.. thats the impression I have been getting about cartomizers all-around. Obviously you aren't dealing with glue everywhere... and Maybe there's better ones out there? Like for the KR808? But.. From what I seen for the most bit, they're terrible to refill.

Kr8 cartomizers are real easy to clean and refill! On the other hand, GreenCig cartz are a real pita and i have destroyed 2 so far in my attempts to refill. Not to confuse the OP because GreenCig cartz wont fit on her smoke51 duo anyways.
Here is a nice video on how to refill a kr8 cartomizer

what Cielo said.
KR's are amazing , very easy to refill... very easy to use... fantastic at 5v
the greencig cartomizers are horrible.
even the Smoke51 cartomizers are not that bad , when i first started vaping and all i had was a smoke51 i would refill those cartomizers as well , much like the KR's
