The cartomizers that you get _will_ have juice in them, but depending on your vaping style the pre-filled juice doesn't last long ... meaning, yes, you should either buy some juice to refill them or buy more cartos than what comes with the kit.

I started with a 510, but switched to V4L for simplicity (I didn't like refilling the cartridge every 15 minutes -- yes, I'm a heavy vaper) I have found that I get more bang for the buck if I keep refilling the carto until performance drops then get a new carto and start the cycle again. I've managed to only use 2 boxes (1 of each of my go-to flavors) of cartos a week since I started this rotation. Before that I could go through a box of cartos in a day!

Here is the deal.

V4L is a 2 piece unit meaning it is battery and a cartomizer.

Most other models are 3 piece meaning battery + atomizer + cartridge. BUT you can also have a cartomizer with these models (like a 510) instead of the atomizer/cartridge combo.

The V4L is a KR808D-1 model - just so you know for future reference. The rest is mostly branding. However, someone on this said their auto batteries have a different sensor and are a bit better than other generic KR's.

if you mix -- get the smallest size just incase you dont like it.

Second this ... taste is very subjective, especially when you first start vaping. I'd get a small selection of the 5mL bottles to be economical about finding the ones that suit you.

And either rinse the carto in hot water then let dry before switching flavors or be sure to 'mix' flavors that will work together (i.e. don't try to refill a Smilin Special Menthol carto with, say, peach)

So, I didnt know about the Vapor Kings. which is better Vapor4Life or Vapor Kings

Depends on what you want for your Vaping needs. What exactly will you be doing while vaping.
On the go -- you will need LOTS of battery power, near a PC - you can use passthroughs.

I dont have any knowledge on V4L, but VK is a supplier for just some of the ecig models.

Just for the record, when I was using the 510 cartos were not available for it yet.

One other difference between the 510 and the VaporKing from V4L is the voltage difference ... 510 puts out ~3.1V fully charged, VK puts out ~3.7V fully charged. Makes a significant difference in taste and throat hit.

I have been finding that out. So which is better to use. Ive read allot of good stuff about V4l just wanna make sure buying right stuff to go with kit. Like if choose Marlboro get juice also? How will i know when to not use cartomizer? Ive also read you can clean them as well?

The draw is a little tighter and you can get a slight marshmellowy taste ... that's when I refill. Worthy of note is the fact that the draw will also get the same tightness when your battery is dropping and needs charged.

You need to understand the MODEL you are buying FIRST and foremost. Most of the rest is BRANDING. The V4L is a KR808 as i mentioned above.... I am not sure what the Vapor Kings is.

If you are going to purchase a 2 piece model - choose the KR808. It is the only true 3.7V in a 2 piece model. Whether you purchase it from V4L or somewhere else - your choice. They are a bit more expensive than ordering a KR from other vendors however...

Hi there. First, there is no "better" between these two as far as I know. It will all depend on what you are looking for. I'd recomend starting off with V4L, as they only sell two piece vaporizers, and the unit is quite simple and durrable. It will give you an easy introduction into vaping in general. A manual is always a good call, but it does take some adjustment. My wife, for instance, likes to keep at least one automatic with her, say for when she's driving or needs both hands free.

On other points, yes, if you order prefilled cartos it is always a good idea to grab a bottle of juice as well. Refilling takes a while to get down pat, but having that spare bottle around can save your .... when you forget to order more cartos, and you will.

As for me, I have been a V4L customer since I started vaping in May, and they are great folks. My only subjective advice is to vape blueberry, lots and lots of blueberry.
