    "clearomizer" round up for 808s...

    Always chasing that dragon, skelley. It's what we all do. The echos are the only thing that has held for me. Imagine my disappointment when they went through a rough patch. But they seem to have sorted out the issues. I had lost faith in everything there for awhile. The ce2/turbo I have now it...

    "clearomizer" round up for 808s...

    ^^^^^^^. If you dunk in alcohol and pulse dry burn, you will get the gunk off. Avoid touching the wicks until it's clean. The wicks stand up to over 2000 degrees f. They are made of glass. Just do yourself a favor. The stuff that burns off is toxic. Ventilation and keep your face away from the...

    "clearomizer" round up for 808s...

    Well, that's sort of my point, Mookie. It's a snowball of hype largely due to the way it looks. When they first came out, it was form way way over function. That gap has slowly closed. And there are some good ones out there. They don't hold what they claim but clearos rarely do, and without...

    "clearomizer" round up for 808s...

    iGo is only a descriptor. It's a cone threaded 808 vision or turbo or whatever. It's a vision (or whatever) adapted to fit one of three different types of batteries. Every time I click on a vendor there is a banner exclaiming they have Visions/turbos in stock. (or whatever they want to call them...

    The Echo Thread

    We are here for you! Smell the sarcasm? It's a long thread. No one is going to read the whole thing. I wouldn't have bought it if I knew it had a five second cutoff due to my past experiences. But now that I have it, I see it's completely irrelevant. The posts are so folks know that as they...

    INTRODUCING - The VOLT X² - ALL NEW Batteries/Passthrough

    Leak proof? These have been on the market now for while. (well, this design) You definitely have my interest if they are leak proof. Price is right.

    WTF! They are just turbos/visions that everyone has everywhere! I was hoping for something different. :facepalm:

    It's a ce2 syringe tank mod that he made. The top and bottom seals are punched out plungers from a syringe. You need two 5ml syringes to make it so you can have 2 plungers.

    Kr808 battery & fluxomizer?

    Wicks wick. It's what they do. There's a fine line between perfection and disaster and VG can be a bit clingy. Seems thin wicks work better with VG because they give up the juice better but they also need to soak it in for a moment. (and a fractured split wick helps) PG seems to do better with...

    I can see three secs. getting in the way. Three seconds is a final toot for me sometimes. Mine has the 10 sec cutoff. I have to draw directly on the battery to test it though. It's great for about 3 hours. The old version stealths just drop off too quickly. Glad to see they addressed the issue...

    the stealths should have a 10 second cutoff. Yours is less than that? I don't think we have rechecked them since the issues got sorted out. Is it a hard cutoff or the short pause that the regulated ones have? (we know the ones we got from Victoria had the 10 second cutoff.....looking to know...

    And before anyone want to see that Rob's echo says "HK" not HS echo as Hangsen has branded it, it is the same. www.hkhangsen.com

    Ok!!!!!!!! So we now have regulated and unregulated available! So true about the echo cutoff too. It's unlike any cutoff out there in that if you ease up for a moment (you don't even have to let the led go out) it resets it and if you do trip it, you can immediately inhale again. There is no...

    No....wasn't saying that. We do have a few echo-e users that pop by. lol. You can stay. I just meant it may take a moment. I just looked and HC sells the 510 as simply the echo and the call the auto 808 version the Vgo.(probably a different manufacturer) I can tell you that the battery is...

    Those batteries inside are big and bulky and fit the width of the tube. The most that could happen is sliding back and forth and none of my echos do that. There is a light rattle noise from one of them near the led end. Never knew it until now. Won't be shaking them anymore. Last I knew Health...

    the 650 chrome looks a little odd in the kuwako. Oddy enough, the chrome 1300 looks much better. (imho, of course)

    led and rubberized finish? :drool: But how do we know they are regulated? I made the assumption based on personal observation awhile ago. Did Rob confirm that these versions are regulated? we can hope, but you may be pushing it, Cyrus. To have a rubberized,automatic, led, regulated battery...

    Kr808 battery & fluxomizer?

    There's less juice waste with shorter wicks and much less mess when you need to take them apart. If you feel the wick has gotten too short, you can lay the broken part or any extra wick over the top of the coil if it's longer than the remaining wick. It's easy to set it aside with a pair of...
