Decided to give one of these IKV 510 Platinum V2 cartos a whirl today giving my usual 2 ohm attys a break. In the past I have tried some nothing-special KR808D cartos and some earlier generation 510 cartos and the much more exotic CE2 carto (freaking impossible to fill). Just tried, never really a prime-time user of any of these carto things.
510 Platinum V2 - So far so good! It's very nice!
I'm vaping it with a short drip-tip on a 3.7v MOD, doing some button pulsing to avoid burning it. I've got a 70/30 blend in it.
On my first fill, i dripped in 5 drops at a time from the top, slightly off center, letting them seep in a bit before dripping the next five. I was surprised to get 30 drops in there and it still looked like it could take more, but I held off at 30 because that's just a lot of juice. I waited a half hour or so after filling before taking a toot.
The first few toots had a slightly tainted flavor to it and pretty decent vapor production. Since it didn't seem near over filled, I put in another 5 drops. Those next 5 drops pushed it slightly over filled, I got a bit of sputtering on my next couple of toots, but the sputtering quickly passed. Vapor production stepped up a bit after adding those last 5 drops, and the 'taint' in the flavor has diminished, but flavor isn't as bright as with dripping.
I really like the draw on it, not too airy and not too tight.
And that's pretty much where I'm at with this first carto in a long time. Not sure how long till I'll have to add more drops. Question for the carto users? How frequently do you top off?
Anyways... Happy vaping!
