I just got my order of LR 510 and 808 Mega Cartos from IkenVape today. I've been waiting for these to go into production, so when I read that they were finally available I had to get some. I already have boatloads of different cartos and for the most part I've ended up disappointed somewhere along the line. Standard cartos just don't work for me, since I vape 3.7V most of the time. I have some SmokeTech LR 510s, but they started either tasting burnt after the first couple refills or didn't work as well after cleaning them.
Today was probably the most excited that I've been since I got my Chameleon! I tore the package open immediately after I got back in my house and set everything up for the first test; the multimeter! I bought 10 of each carto, which are supposed to be rated at 2.0Ω. One by one, I tested each of them and every single one tested at 2.0Ω! Fantastic! Time for part two; the initial fill.
I took one of each and was able to get 55 drops of juice into them without any leaking. They both fill with the drip method very easily because the filler just sucks up the juice. I really like how easy it was because I use either 50/50 or 60PG/40VG mixes and the initial fill can sometimes be tedious with thicker juice. I let them rest for about 15 minutes and then it was on to the real test; performance!
I tried out the 510 first and was instantly let down because it wouldn't vape! There was zero airflow and I couldn't even get a draw. I unscrewed it a bit and then it worked...boy did it work! However, I'm one of those people who doesn't want to fuss too much with my hardware. I'm not a modder, nor do I ever intend to be. If I have to fiddle too much to get something to work I'd rather not be bothered with it. At the same time, I try to be a fair person, so I wasn't going to judge by just that one carto. I understand that sometimes things just don't work, so I filled another one.
I was blown away by the second one! The draw was nice and easy. Not too airy, not too tight, just right. Tons of rich, warm, luxurious vapor and excellent taste came out with the very first draw. There wasn't even a hint of filler taste. I took a few more drags and not even the slightest burnt taste. The carto only got slightly warm, which I found surprising. My other LR cartos would get hot whenever I would power vape them. So far, this was definitely a keeper.
The 808 was next and I was instantly pleased. The results were exactly the same as with the 510. Tons of warm vapor, delicious taste and only a slightly warm carto after power vaping it. It was another very satisfying experience. I decided to keep using this one while my fiance and I were out running errands so I could put it through it's paces. Again, I wasn't disappointed. The performance and flavor remained consistent for the entire four hours that we were out. Simply amazing!
I refilled it as soon as we got home and it's still going strong! I'll put the 510 through it's paces tomorrow and post an update. For right now, I highly recommend both of these cartos. I really believe that Issac has a couple of real winners on his hands and you should get your hands on them, too!
