I have one of these and I can't wait to get more. I love this thing. Great vapor, great taste and zero leaks after almost a week. And the best part.....I haven't broken it yet....and I break just about everything I touch :facepalm:
What are you using it on? Let us know about the durability and how long it lasts (more than a week I would guess).

I couldn't resist it, I ordered one. 4ml with the performance of a dual is just too much temptation for me. LOL I think one of these paired up with a 18650 battery mod is just going to be an awesome combination.

Update on the dual coils...the first one I had lasted 2 days. I think one of the coils burned out because although it's working, its works terribly. Hardly any heat. Has this happened to anyone else? It isn't clear si it isn't easy to do a cartotopsy on! The second one, the one I'm using now is so far up to 3 days and it's still going strong. I think Boge and I have parted ways. :)

I know one coil CAN go out, but that hasn't happened to me yet...sorry it did to you. :(

I still use my Boges for 5v and the 2ohms are better on my smaller 3.7v batts so I use them on the Mini REO and the GLV Super Mini when I go out with either of those devices. But yeah, the duals have it over Boge for taste, vapor and life of carto for sure. And that's saying a lot, Boge is a damn good carto.

Thanks for letting me know that others experienced the coil problem! It's always comforting when it isn't a just me issue. :)

I use my eGo passthroughs almost 100% of the time. Just easier as I am more or less tethered to the computer constantly. When I go out or leave the computers, I just unplug the eGos. The Boge 2.8-3ohms were absolutely the best for me until these dual coils came along.My 2 problems with Boge was the breaking in..the taste would be "off at the start until broken in and then after 2 days or so, the draw was so hard that they stopped being worth using. Washing them didn't help the draw so I'd have to toss them. I had stopped using the 2.0 ohms as the juices I used tasted burnt. I like very sweet juice. Even at lr, the taste of the dual coils with my sweet juices is great. :)

Oh I hate to hear that. I think that you and I got ours from the same place :) Yours is the first one that I have heard about being a dud :-( I seriously have used at least 30 of these (between 2 people) and no duds yet. Knock on wood lol I hope the rest work well for you :)

I had a 1.25 for a month w/o cleaning it. It got so I couldn't see out of it. I ran it with 100% VG (Gorilla Juice), and when I finally put my Gorilla in a new one there was a noticable difference (for the better). I will probably change them every two weeks, or clean if I want to change flavors.

Has anyone tried to clean their duals out yet? Like running under water and letting them dry out?

I have cleaned 5-6 of them by just running warm water thru them until all the old joose is out. I then just blow out the excess water and let dry for a couple days. I wouldnt say they are as good as new, but I'd guess between 80-90% as good.

Please, it's ok! I had one batch of Boges that died after 12 hours of use for each one! The second dual coil I'm on is still going strong! So far I love them! Hugs!!!
