    i want to step up to a bigboy battery. which one?

    If you are interested in checking out that I-turbo kit, look at them from Mtn Vapor Mountain Vapor Starter Kits the ones labled "turbo" kits are the ce4 type clearomizers on an echo battery and the ones labled "echo" kits utilize the 3+ ml cartomizers. They are the same battery, just different...

    My batteries still rock. Still rock the echomizers when I'm doing anything physical that could hurt a clearo. The t3s are great but every time I drop one it cracks right at the base. I don't know why. Maybe they make them so tight so they don't leak but it puts stress on the plastic at the...

    I didn't see any listed. Only downfall imagined is the draw is a little weird on cone threads for an echomizer.

    THE T3s WORK ON ALL THE X2s NO ADAPTERS

    again, it ain't perfect. Not as good as on an ego because you can screw them on all the way. But it's good to try them out to get a feel for them and go through any troubleshooting. Then when they come in true 808 form, you're ahead of the curve.

    I think the t2s were better out of the box, but after a week on the t3, it's finally hitting it's stride. I took the post above the coil off during the dry burn and there were two thin strands of wick laid over the coil. I replaced it with a single slightly longer strand of fresh fluffed up wick...

    Why does the boge "808D" carto suck so much and what's with priming?

    It was elite vaporworks that sells the horizontal coil 808s. Elite Vaporworks Cartomizers - Signature Series 808 I couldn't remember because I was sure I was wrong for a moment because there's another company that sells 808 gear with elite in the title. Last I remember, they had free...

    Why does the boge "808D" carto suck so much and what's with priming?

    That's the hit or miss you get with Boge. You also get quality issues with kanger horizontal. Sometimes the coil gets pushed to the side and hits the filler. It's a strange taste. If it happens, come back and there's some trouble shooting. The more consistent ones come from the vendors who...

    yeah. The smooth base of the t2s were easy to cover with a piece of clear tape. These holes are hard to see. Without the kuwako, I just curl my finger around it and pinch the base a little like when someone used to give me a light cig. But in the kuwako it's not right to grip it like that. It's...

    I may have to pick up another. It's not bad (although with a t3 attached it's as airy as sucking through those fat McDonald's straws.) I also can't get a reading off the multi-meter. Could these possibly be regulated? They vape fairly consistent and last a long time for a 510 650. Still not...

    Has anyone tested a V2 battery?

    That's typical of an unregulated battery. It comes hot off the charger above the 3.7 volt range and quickly declines....spends most of its time slowly working it's way down from 3.8 to 3.5 and quickly drops it's charge again once below that. This is with no resistance attached so when it's...

    Can I charge a KR808D battery with a 510 charger IF...

    The short answer is no. It's tempting, I know but there's a laundry list of reasons you should not. Chargers are about 5 bucks. They have sensors in them which communicate with the battery so they sit at a specific load when filly charged. Different batteries sit differently. Some around 4.2v...

    If something is wrong, don't use it. It's advice that's easily given and hard to obey sometimes. But I've had many conversations with Bill at nwvapors via email. I'm sure he'd be happy to help. Tell him the situation and see where it goes. (BTW. I assume you bought the kit. Both batteries do...

    THE T3s WORK ON ALL THE X2s NO ADAPTERS

    It seems odd that kanger, once the pioneering champion of the 808 line, has pretty much shown no interest in making hardware for fat batts. I have no problem getting the t2 and t3 to work on the x2 but have to leave them just shy of being screwed on all the way which contributes to an airy...

    shouldn't take that long. These do take longer to charge than an ego charger. Slower is better for battery life and safety. My 650 takes about 4 hours for the led on the battery to go out and the 1300 can take all night. What does the pinhole led light at the end of the battery do? It goes out...

    Mad Vapes has these in for those using the ce4/turbo clearomizers. You can now use any drip tip on them. CE4 Clearomizer to 510 Drip Tip Adapter

    "clearomizer" round up for 808s...

    A decent multi-meter can be bought for about $20 at Lowes/Walmart etc that takes the guess work out of whether you have burnt out the coil or not. It's the best tool to have too if your going to be taking these apart to clean and rebuild. Just make sure it's capable of reading low ohms. The...

    "clearomizer" round up for 808s...

    sounds a lot like these from mountain vapor 808d Tank Atomizer that have been out for awhile. They are alright on first fill but develop airflow issues. If you take them apart you can replace the coil in a cut down ce2 type tube and drip. That's about all you can get if you want to keep using...

    Have fun with those, Lulu. Lithium ion has a shelf life of a few years if you don't use them. There's lots of debate on whether putting them in the freezer will combat the degradation as well as the chosen few who swear they do have a charging memory despite the hype that they don't.... As I...
