• Need help from former MFS (MyFreedomSmokes) customers

    Has any found a supplier or company that has tobacco e-juice like or very similar to MFS Turbosmog, Tall Paul, or Red Luck?

I never asked, and they never told me. I'm just guessing it's because if your needle is too large it can get stuck in there and pull the inner cap up with it.


I suspect so it doesn't leak they are not designed IMO to be taken apart there. Prefilled carts are likely filled at the factory with some sort of needle. one whole to inject one hole to let air out. Concrete bags have many small holes to let air out and one big one to fill. Yeah the bags are sealed at both ends before the cement is blown into them.

About the same thing happened a little while back with the new eGo cartomizers. They were not available in the USA because of an exclusive agreement. Now they are available on at least two sites that I am aware of. One of the sites is eGo cartomizer 5 pack at Cignot.

Thanks for the link Br! I really like the way these vape. I dont know how many times you can refill but I will see,, lol

There is actually a hole where the wicks go into the cup though. I don't know if adding another one at that same location would pinch them.

I believe badkolo's idea is to create two more slots for a new wick to run through. Essentially creating a cross section in the middle of the cup using two wicks.

^ (Oh ok. I just noticed this post.)


Adding a (part of a) wick on only one half is easier, stuff the long end into the tank, after sliding it into one of the slits. Then stuff the short end under and around the coil?

I tried something like that, but it started gurgling, I don't know if it would need more coil loops then.

(Really I think they're fine. I don't want readers seeking an opinion think that they're not good. They're actually really good, and I don't even have the newer version. I do have to use it just like a cigarette though, that's the thing. Yet that's exactly what it's supposed to be expected, they're electronic 'cigarettes'. If I wanted a 10 or 15 second draw from a real cigarette, I would also be wondering about modding it. I have to keep remembering how to smoke cigarettes :laugh:.)

very interesting and by the time i have used up my 150 new empty 1ml Borge cartomizers that cost me about $1.20 each, these 2.5 ml cartos should be better understood and somewhat cheaper than $3.40 each i would hope.
The new 2.5 ml cartos at $3.40 each seem a bit too expensive for me

Let's see, 30 for $22.78 = $0.76 each, sounds pretty good to me ;)

i rephrased it a little so you could understand my American English.

or were you just being silly? :p

and the $3.40 refers to http://www.cignot.com/product_p/ego-ct5-alb.htm

How the heck do you fill these things. I can use the condom method for the 1st fill but I get the burnt taste really quickly and cant seem to refill. I like the old cartos better :(

after pulling out the mouth peace, there is a inner 3 hole plug, you can use something like a tweezer to pry it out, pull that out and you can see where to inject the juice, aorund the walls between the plastic cup and the carto, when the juice fills up around the outer part of the cup then place the inner plug back in. and then the mouth peace.

if you cant remove the inner plug then one of the holes in that inner plug should be able to fit the needle they provided you with, you insert the tube into one of the bigger holes on the side(not the center hole) and squeeze in 1 ml of juice maybe a tad less.

if your using a regualr metal needle, then you can pushe it through one of the little holes on the side, if it doesnt fit you can twist and turn it until it goes through. once you fill these they are the easiest to fill.

im attempting this now. im not just going to loop it around ill tie in itself so its not loose around the coil, then tuck it in the new slits i made.

even though the newer looser coil and wider channel might be the ticket. I have a few that believe me or not are flawless, i did what i do to them and even was able to loosen the coil myself with lots of work and it just chugs along with no dry spots and the flavor is abundant becuase of how well it wick. if i can get that performance with the XL series then omg im happy

Received a pack of CE2 m401 cartomizers from JJ Rodiguez yesterday and after prying the caps off to fill it (the refill tip included didn't fit LOL) I let it set for 20 min before using.

Testing on Intellicig evo batteries and joye eGo with adapter. These seem to work better on the evo(401) batteries than the ego batteries. Lower voltage?

With PG fluid these(older 7 hole) cartos work fairly well, VG not as well. You definitely need to let them rest between drags to avoid the dry taste and loss of flavor. If I drag on them the same way I used to smoke then they work very well, even the wife likes them better than my Boge cartomizers or my regular atties.

Very good vapor, if a bit on the warm side , nice flavor, and I am getting good throat hit @ 18mg but will probably need to cut down the nicotine since like others have said it seems to hit you quicker.

All in all I am pleased with these cartomizers even if they are a little fussy and await my 510 shipment with anticipation to be able to try the improved version.

Thanks to JJ for sending me a pack to try.
All the best, Happy Vaping,
Wing.
