808 Blank Life

[mike20]

Any ideas on how long an 808 blank cartomizer will last.
I'm refilling just when the taste starts to get bad.
Wondering if they're useful for a day or 2 or more.
Thanks

I would say that it depends entirely on how much you vape. I haven't used the 808 cartos yet but the 510 cartos last me about an hour or so vapin' like a steam engine.

Thanks for the reply. I think my real question is how many times can they be refilled ?
Should I wait until they taste bad or maybe top off at intervals to extend the life of the cart ?

I usually top off as soon as I notice a change in flavor or vapor production. and that seems to be about half to 3/4 thru the day for me. and I'll reuse them for a week or two depending if the flavor gets a bad taste. some cartos can last 2 weeks or more, some only a couple days. the mass production on these things leave alot of variables so ou just have to pay close attention and be your own judge really. good luck!

The cartos are meant be to disposable, but obviously they are refillable. Some people refill just a couple times b/c of personal preference or loss in flavor, others claim to fill 50+ times. Not every carto is the same...some will last longer than others.

I think waiting until they taste bad is a mistake.....I recommend refilling when they stop tasting great....

Leads to another question
Condom Method, Drip Drops or Syringe ?

I use the soft top Turbo cartos from vapornine...east to get the tops off, so I just drip in. (also refill many times)
I tried the condom method and always ended up over-filling them and making a mess...although many people manage just fine.
I've never used a syringe.

Seconding the Turbos from Vapor nine! I still am on the same carto and it has lasted me for a week. When I go to fill it (for the third time) I pop off the top and drip down the side of the atomizer. So far I don't see any burnt filler in this and it vapes like the first time. The top is super easy to pry off. I wub woo, Vapornine Turbo Carts.

Edited to add - you really get a lot of use out of these! They are super big.
