    Filling Cartos....

    I would try using a syringe to fill your cartos. Personally I think it's hands down the quickest and easiest way to fill a carto. A syringe takes all the guesswork out of filling and ensures they are filled correctly. This is a copy and paste I wrote for someone else on how to fill the...

    Smoketech cartotanks light on vapor

    That is plenty full. You should only notice that the tank doesn't feed the carto as well when it's almost empty. Are you using the pre-punched carto that came with the tank? Bc if so, that could be part of the problem. The eGo is only 3.3-3.4V and dual coils really arnt that great at lower...

    Need help adapting to 3.7Vs! My eGo tasted better. What to do?

    Since the EMDCC's are 1.5ohm, try using something like a 1.7ohm carto and see if that helps. 1.7ohm cartos will still give a nice warm vape, but it's not quite as warm as a 1.5ohm so maybe that will kind of counter the slightly higher voltage that a 3.7V PV gives compared to a 3.3-3.4V eGo...

    KGO voltage question

    It could be that your charger is cutting it off a tad bit early, but I also think it could be the multimeter that your using is alittle off. Is it a cheap one? I have an Epower which is 3.7V and similar to the kGo but uses non-proprietary batteries and the same thing happens to me. fresh off...

    kGo vGo eGo ???

    Spaceballs explained it well without making it too comicated. And yes the Epower uses non-proprietary batteries so it charges differently than the proprietary battery eGos, kGos, etc. Instead of screwing the PV directly onto the charger, you take the Epower battery out of the unit and put it...

    kGo vGo eGo ???

    Thats not true. The eGo does have a 3.7V battery, but is regulated down to 3.3-3.4V. The Epower is 3.7V regulated and the kGo is unregulated, but comes off the charger around 4.1-4.2V and then drops to 3.7V. Put a Ressurector on both and you can tell the difference. The Ressurectors were...

    kGo vGo eGo ???

    Not a big difference, but def a noticeable difference. I use an Epower which is 3.7V like the kGo, but uses non-proprietary batteries and It gives a slightly warmer vape and alittle more TH than an eGo. Much more importantly though, the 3.7V PVs handle the lower resistances alot better. I...

    Ordering a KGo - which cartomizers?

    Yeah the "ressurectors" are just a nickname that CCV gave them, they are the Smoktech 1.7ohm LR XL cartos. Like madjack said, you can get them from Hoosier as well, but CCV does have a good deal and free drip tip if you get 15, plus free shipping which is nice if you just want to order cartos...

    Ordering a KGo - which cartomizers?

    Def try the Ressurectors. They are designed to be used on 3.7V PVs, like they kGo, and they work awesome. Personally I think dual coils kinda suck at lower voltages and especially on a 3.3-3.4V eGo. They are alittle better on 3.7V PVs, but are still nothing special. Dual coils are a whole...

    Yikes on filling a carto

    Using a syringe takes all the guesswork out of filling and is def the quickest way to fill a carto. The condom method is better than drip filling, but it can be messy and it doesn't work as well with XL cartos. Filling with a syringe is very easy and ensures the carto is filled correctly. A...

    Any E-Liquid sample pack suggestions?

    BlueMist has some really good juices and all their juices are made fresh. They are located in PA and they ship really fast, most of the time your order will be shipped the same day you place it. I understand what you mean Puppyman about not having a clue what you might like, bc everyone...

    Looking for another e-cig option

    Def get a manual battery. They not only are sealed so you wont kill it with a juice leak, but they also allow you to control your vape alot more, which will give you a better vape. Most people get used to the manual batteries very quickly and it basically becomes second nature. Also you said...

    what pg/vg ratio do you suggest?

    PG gives more TH and more flavor, but doesnt produce alot of vapor. VG produces a lot of vapor, but dulls TH and flavor some. I agree with hairball and recommend trying around 80/20, 70/30. 30%VG or less is alot easier to fill cartos with and doesnt clog them as quickly. All PG gives awesome...

    Any E-Liquid sample pack suggestions?

    Wouldnt you rather be able to pick your own, so you can actually try what sounds like it could be good? Instead of a set sample pack that might have some flavors that dont seem good to you at all. Im recommending BlueMist Vaping anyway. They dont have pre-selected sample packs, but they have...

    vape newb, eGo dual-coil carto tank

    I think you'll def like that kit. I'd actually rather have that then the regular eGo bc the Smoktech eGo is 3.7V while the genuine eGos are 3.3-3.4V. I use an Epower which is a 3.7V with that same smoktech 3.5ml tank. Personally I don't like dual coils at lower voltages so I didn't even use...

    where are all the tanks

    I use the Smoktech 3.5ml tank as well but on an E-Power. Crystal Clear Vaping has them too, but with free shipping so it ends up being cheaper than getting them from Madvapes and paying shipping. I dont like dualcoils at lower voltages so instead of the dualcoil that comes with the tank, I...

    Cartomizer vs. Carto with Atty for Ego???

    You can also use a drip tip on cartomizers to just give you a mouthpiece. It also makes it easier than the white cap to pop off and add some juice to the carto. If you vape a few different juices at the same time, using drip tips on them makes it easier to tell which juice is on each carto bc...

    more questions from a confused noob

    Exactly what he said. The low resistance cartos draw too many amps and will damage a slim ecig battery. 1.5ohm is at the lower end too so they will draw even more amps. Voltage isnt the issue. Even though your slim ecig battery is 3.7V and my E-Power battery is 3.7V, my E-Power can handle the...

    Cartomizer vs. Carto with Atty for Ego???

    The eGo is 3.3-3.4V, not 3.7V. Dual coils work alittle better on 3.7V PVs like the E-Power, kGo, or newer Rivas, but they still arnt great. I find dual coils only really shine when used in the 4-5V range. For the eGo I would get some Boge 2.0ohm cartos bc they are def the best and most...

    more questions from a confused noob

    No, dual coil tanks are marketed for PVs that can actually handle them. If you read that you shouldnt use below 2.0ohm on an eGo, which is true and I dont recommend using below 2.0ohm on an eGo, but people do, a slim ecig should especially not use low resistance cartos, especially a 1.5ohm dual...
