    That would probably help, not hard to do with the saddle valve or the punch and jig set. VIP has a nice one that I am going to buy here when payday rolls around.

    Hi Wolf, I've got 10 Smok 1.7 Metals here that are real nice and I'm going to try the IKV Platinums also. We might as well explore all the options, nothing but the best for our tanks, right? Haha, if we can buy Provari and other mods just to match the tanks, why not get the premium carto out there?

    They should be Smoks, mine were. Next time I try I'm going to look at that diagram again that shows where the coils are placed so I don't punch into one. I really didn't make a deep or large punch but it just didn't work well for me.

    I tried a shorty DCC in my tank. I think I blew a coil when I punched it, it was not good. Very weak flavor and vapor on a 3.7. Tried it on a VV mod @ 5V and not much improvement, so I'm thinking it didn't survive the punch process. But people have used them successfully.

    Yep, have heard complaints lately of funky, but not burnt, tasting cartos. Just this AM in fact someone said theirs tasted like chemicals. It's really a crap shoot these days, that's why I switched from the Boges and am looking for the best alternatives.

    I syringe it out, it usually tastes fine, not tainted by the bad carto. Only the juice in the carto would be bad. Sometimes these carto problems stem from under saturating and after a few pulls the filler burns. Make sure the carto is fully loaded. Even do the Taryn spin and top off. Watch the...

    Try MadVapes or IKV, they both have the longer cartos in STD resistance. The thing is they have to be the same diameter also to fit the tanks.

    I was thinking the same thing Snoopy. They all come from China, but there are a few newer companies over there doing cartos. For example the EMDCCs that Smoktech sells are being copied and they are actually better than the Smoks, or so peeps say. There is really no way to tell anymore unless the...

    Hi Lily, you shouldn't use the LR 1.5 cartos at HV, they are just for 3.7 - 4.2 or so. Try the 3.0 cartos for HV vaping. You can try the resurrectors to clear the button but they are also LR @ 1.7 or so. You could also get one of those shorty adapters to clear the button.

    Ah, that is important to me, don't like the tighter draw, even the resurrectors seem tighter drawing to me. Ok, thanks, the plats it is then.

    Sometimes it's just the format that it wants, with or without hyphens. Or it's not the same # associated with your CC account.

    I was looking at the LR and Std at IKV yesterday. What would be the better, the Gold or Platinum? They seem to be priced the same.

    That's the spirit! We have several folks that have to do that. You can look at the pics of tanks past, a lot of times Jon will run the same material again for the next sale. But like Ty said keep checking back here for the new stuff.

    How exciting for you! Two mods on the same day, and I know you are lovin the lil sis. I got the tank and some juice and cartos. I switched from the Boges to the 1.7 Smok Metals, but I still need to find out what metal they are made out of. since they are not calling them SS. I don't want to put...

    Morning Cat! @Serenity, I'll put another flavor in a tank and re-use the carto if the flavors would stand a chance of tasting good together, but yeah, multiple tanks will be nice. @Wolf, how's the new Provari, you like it? @Bonnie, we are corps, not corpse, lol. At least not yet. But I sorta...
