The standard carts 3.2 ohms burn also at 3.7 volts. If you don't take them apart you will never know, that they do burn the diaper. Please folks take them apart when they quit working and let us know if you don't see gunk or burned diaper, and if you do see gunk and burnt diaper let us now also. If you don't use a clearomizer you will never see it.
Duals and triples are grose!!!

The simple single 14500 box I use. In the pictures of me dry burning the coils you can see this box, The passthru is an old piece of crap I use as a tool to pry off the sleeve and hold the coils while I re wrap them. No way am I using 6v.
Agree, ALL end up burning Cotton diapers wrapped around a hot coil. Doesn't matter who makes it or how many coils it has, or what Ohm's it is, it will burn the diaper. If someone could show and tell me different, I and a whole lot of others would be very grateful, I sure would like to know if there is a way, besides not vaping it, that wouldn't burn the diaper. So if anyone knows how, PLEASE, please let the rest us know. There are ways to slow it down a little but not for long. THANKS

Decided to start a new DC today. The first picture at 1:30 pm filled and sitting for an hour. Second picture 2:17 pm after vaping for about 45 min, starting to show brown spot. Third picture 10 pm, notably stained, I replenished eliquid after every10 puffs so no chance of dry diaper. Have not found anywhere that cotton fumes are harmful so I will continue to use these when I can't drip, when driving.
I use the clear dual coils and mine are never burnt. My Mom's cartos always are (I clean and refill both so I see them). I can't tell you why. She vapes BWB Casablanca, I vape nhalers pg. Although sometimes I use 70pg/20vg VB peach.
Her juice is dark, mine is clear. I can't tell you if this is the reason or if it has nothing to do with it. Maybe it's the way we vape? I really have no clue why. Next time I clean them, I'll post a picture. It has nothing to do with the way they're filled because I fill them both. Her's almost always have to be thrown away, while I can clean and refill mine.
I had the same problem and I won't use them anymore. I bought mine from different vendor. I addressed using something different than cloth around the coils and was shot down. It doesn't matter what juice is used or even straight pg it still burns and this is while keeping the material wet at all times. I tried it all. I use a 3.7 device.
There has got to be something better to wrap around the coils?

One day of vaping, looks grose, tastes great and vapes great. Still lots of flavor no burnt taste.
Being semi retired and a lot of time on my hand, this morning all my puffs from the DC I blew out through the same spot on my cotton handkerchief, like we used to do with analogs to show the amount of tar we inhaled. Happy to report that after more than 100 puffs no stain on the handkerchief. Even with the filler and liquid stained it doesn't seem to get into the vapor. Makes me feel a little better on using them, of course this doesn't eliminate invisible fumes.
BJ43 I am with you on the filler burning being a concern. I love the Boge 2.0 cartomizers but I have stopped using them much because of that. I have gone to the Gotvapes version of CE2 called Fluxomizers and have been pretty happy with those. They are higher resistance than the Boge (saving the battery drain) with almost the same vapor and even better flavor.
To me the argument that it is safer than smoking is like saying stabbing yourself is safer than shooting yourself. No doubt true but if it can be avoided, why not

Ordered some Fluxomizers to try, the CE2s I tried were very weak in flavor on both 3.7 and 5v and the coils went pretty fast.
The lab reported that the three diaper cloth samples I sent them, two from separate DC and one from a TC, all new and unused, were 100% cotton. We did not go to the expense of more test because analyzes of fumes from burning 100% cotton cloth have been tested many times and are available to the public. Don't want to say they are harmless, but feel a little better about what I am putting into my lungs. There are many variables when you burn a combination of chemicals, cloth and eliquids, and each would be different.
Great information. Thanks for you time and effort. Its nice to know what that diaper is made of.
Isn't it more than just the cotton diaper that burns tho? I have seen pics of burnt polyfil. That worries me more than the cotton
Thats true I just used a match to burn the polyfil and it melted a little and then caught fire. Now I know the polyfil will not catch fire with the heat of the coil but it DOES melt so may give off a vapor, usually it just melts a hole in it but who knows,it may be as bad as the diaper for stuff we should not be inhaling.
Years ago in the model T age of Ecigs, several lab tests were done on the different fillers used in carts. I will try to find them. I was more concerned with the diaper because it always burns or at least scorches. Keep them wet is the best advice and when possible just drip, it is probably the healthiest way to vape.
