I am so thankful for this forum and thread! Like many of you, I have fallen in love with the KR808D, but after reading through this thread, I am little reluctant to finish the 60 Cartomizers I have left. But the good news is that we have another option in Green World Cartomizers! I just ordered 30 from Drew and I can't wait to try the different flavors, as the sample he sent me was very nice.
How many of you plan on continuing to use/buy more KR808D Cartomizers, including the V4L ones?
That's a tough call. I need to open a few more up at various stages, and will try/have stated to try Edo's 'fill out of the box with cart opened' on a few boxes of them. It sort of depends on when I can confirm they actually *start* to burn. I'm pretty sure it's *before* you can taste it, which matches the experience of others that have taken them apart...I'd still like to know for sure from the manufacturer when that wick on the KR carts is (as well as the 'hair' on the greencigs). If it's possible to either detect when it starts to burn accurately from taste alone (which I don't think it is), and if pre-'fixed' (meaning manual filling before even using them), I may buy a few boxes, 'fix' them and just keep them on hand for very occasional use, or to let someone try then throw the cart out. Unless they last much longer than I expect before the burning starts, even pre-filled/fixed, it's not looking cost or 'safety' effective for me to use a KR as my 'go to' or primary smoke. But, we also don't 'know it all' yet, either, so will see.
I definitely feel more 'comfortable' with the greencig carts. Just need to sort how long they last, how long they can be dripped and last reasonably, and see where pricing goes with them. I only had the single cart, but it certainly lasted a fair amount of time with only a few drips added to it, and isn't of the ame design of the KRs, so...maybe my new or at least 'when out' go to will be the greencigs, as long as the daily cost works out reasonably.
Grr, no G300 on doorstep today yet.. :-(
