Sorry I have been absent the last couple of days but lucky for everyone I am not the only GreenCig lover and user. NeedVapor nailed it right on the head and the glowing review that was added into the original thread ad to the true testament of how good these actually are. If you are wanting one if you can wait I strongly suggest you do, it will be worth it.
Vuedoo,
1. I here it has a pretty good throat hit even though the vapor quanity seems lower, is This True? Yes
2. Do the Carts really last nearly an entire day ? this would be a perfect maintenance free answer for Taking an ecig out with me if so. It lasted me a 24hr day I was very clear on that part because it was a big question of mine, I didn't believe it either. I smoked about 1 1/2 pk a day for 32yr. A cart should get the average smoker through a 8hr shift, I would take spares in case but you don't need a whole kit.
3. are there any problems with the cartomizers being flooded or any other issues that would Cause it to stop working correctly? Umm not initially, you can get the odd dud but most good suppliers have no problems throwing you a replacement. You can flood it by dripping too much in it at one time but other than that no.
4. I noticed that it seems to be a hard Item to Keep stocked and Supplies are Hard to find. Is the Manufactuer have Troubles supplying there suppliers?
They are in the recent past due to the exploding popularity fo them. The manufacturers state that they can supply different sellers 1000's of units a week so it should not be a problem for long.
5. and I have allot of liquids left with my 510 here . can any liguid be used to rrefill the cartomizers or are there specific Liquids to fill them with to work more efficiantly? Yes! That's the other beautiful part of the cartomizers you can refill them and use them many times over, especially the GreenCig ones.
I am very Satisfied with Drew and the Folks over at Nhaler and I will wait on his carts to get restocked to order one of these. but I really would like to hear some honest opinions and answers to my questions before I make my Decision. Good choice in supplier as well. Drew is the man when it comes to juices, and service. You can rest assured that your stuff is right or it is made right. You are doing things right.

Snarky... Didn't you have a video somewhere about how to quickly fill the greencig carts? I can't find it anywhere. Can you point me in the right direction?
Does Greencig only have the white ecig? I want to get away from the cig look so I don't want white. Also, which one (Greencig or KR808D1) those of you that have both gives the best throat hit and vapor? Are these models automatic or manual?

Snarky...Just an update...
I just got my greencig cartos and 808 batts last night and so far I'm pretty impressed. I also got the 808 cartos and 901 adapters on thursday and have been playing with those too.
First impressions.. The 808 cartos came prefilled with juice that wasn't too obnoxious so I was just using them out of the box on a 901 batt thursday night. Hit wasn't bad but I could still got the sense that I was getting some filler taste. Not too bad though.
Yesterday when I got the 808 batteries and greencig carts, I immediately plugged the 808 carto into the 808 battery. Hit was a lot better than the 901 battery was giving me.
Then I put my greencig carto on the 808 battery. Couldn't get airflow. So I examined the cartos a little and saw that the 808s have a slot in the center button and the greencig cartos did not. I staple modded one of the GC cartos and got it to work. Much better hit than the 808 carto, but OMG what a horrid taste. It was the 'western tobacco' flavor that came in the greencig cartos. Worse tasting vape I have ever had (and I have to have tried at least a hundred flavors).
So after about three hits I knew it was time for some deconstructive surgery. I disassembled both the 808 and creencig carts to refill. I agree with you on the superiority of the greencig design. Very well engineered.
I also saw why I was getting filler taste from the 808 the entire element is encased in filler. I love the way the greencig made their design using the hair to keep the filler separate from the heater.
Anyway got 30 drops in the greencig and about 22 in the 808 and reassembled them both, Impressed with how much juice they were holding.
I have kinda set the 808 carto aside in favor of the GCs.
Today I decided to give a 'real world' trial to the GC on the 808 batts. I had both batts charged up overnight and ready to go. I had the one carto filled from last night and filled another this morning. Only on this one I gave it a thorough cleaning in vodka before I even added my juice. I think it will take days of use to get the 'western crapbacco' flavor to finally come out of that first one (yukkkkky), but the on I gave a bath to didn't taste too bad.
Anyway, The greencig cartomizers on the KR-808 batteries passed my 'real world' test with flying colors. I have used them exclusively today, and two fully charged batts and two full carts have gotten me through an entire day.
This morning I actually put my little vaping case (full of juices, batteries, carts, paper clips, chargers, etc,etc,etc) in my bedroom so I wouldn't reach for it out of habit.
It has just been me and two prepped greencigs all day.
No dripping, no swapping batts, no juice bottles, no fiddling, etc,etc,etc.
Oh yeah, and nary a drop of juice in my mouth the entire day.
It has only been one day, but it's definitely looking good for the greencigs so far.
I can see just filling like 10 carts on Sundays and throwing two batts on the chargers before bed each night and running all week. That would be great! Maybe then the kids would stop making fun of my "purse" that I have to lug around to keep up with the 510's.
Note: I dremeled a groove across the center button of the 808 battery, so no need for the staple mod anymore.
Edit: BTW Snarky, thanks for your kind words on that "other forum", very nice of you.
...And count me in on any bulk orders of the GC cartos, preferably without that dreadful western tobacco flavor.

Thanks for your reply on the greencig. i seen in another post someone said the greencig batt with greencit cart gave a light hit compared to the KR808. is this true. i myself was a marlboro red smoker and i want a good throat hit. do you think i will get that with the GC 300? Thanks for any help.

Hi everybody:
I just received my first ecig - the greencig 300 noble kit. It comes with 4 carts all in western flavor of different nic levels. Does anyone know where I can get more carts? The very few places that seem to be in stock only have western, oriental, and mint flavors. I'm not so into the western flavor. Really want to try some flavors like apple, vanilla, something fruity, but can't find them anywhere. Any info would be very helpful, because without carts I'm going to need to continue to smoke analogs, and the whole point of buying this was to use it.
Many thanks.

I noticed as well how hard the carts are to get, but for now you may want to keep the existing carts you have and check around forums and youtube.. etc... to find guidance on the refill methods for the green cig carts. The Juices are available in all kinds of Flavors and used to refill them yourself..and will save you money.
I'm waiting as well for a better supply of carts and more reviews on the GreenCig300 to buy it as my next PV.

I did alot of research before buying the G300 and liked that it is a 2part system (don't want to deal with dripping and atomizer clogging and all that) and chose the GC because it seemed the safest in that it doesn't burn like people say the other 2 part systems do (which seems like it can be even more unhealthy than analogs). What i didn't research however is the ability to buy more carts. i never though that that would be an issue...oops. So now I have what appears to be a great device, but I can't use it without refilling it which probably would have been easier with a 3 part system to start with.
Vuedoo: What ecig do you use? and do you reccommend it?
I'm now thinking of buying a 510 or some other 3 part to use until GC carts are in stock somewhere.

Check some of the links in the thread... GreenCigs home page has them, as does greencigusa and greencig world. There are links in this thread. They don't have a lot of flavors but honestly, I'd rather refill as most of the stock flavors suck.
I think its all relative. What a good hit to one person is may not be to another. I do think if you do a full 5 second drag it produces a hit enough to satisfy most people, but that's just my opinion. I usually do about 2-3 seconds and it satisfies me fine. There are also some Cart Mods I think you can do to produce more vapor, but I'm not sure. I thought I read them somewhere in these forums. Overall, it meets my needs, but unfortunately, I can't say if you will find it ok. I'd probably suggest getting it froma place that allows returns and return if you don't like it.
I concur... Just refill for now. It's pretty easy. Keep checking Nhaler to see if their Lung Juice filled GC carts are for sale as well.
Western does suck I agree. Mint isn't too bad... like a weak menthol.
where did you guys get the greencig 300? i seen it on Nhaler but didnt want to pay 125 for it. i dont want the g220. anyone know where to get batteries and carts?
i got my green cig 300 from nhaler and used coupon code saveinnj for 10% off. He is currently out of stock of gc carts. I found another site: greenworldcig and ordered carts from them. They have western, mint, and oriental in stock shown on the site. I ordered oriental to try and they informed me that they also sent me trials of vanilla and cherry which I'm really excited about. Don't know why it doesn't seem in stock on the site though. Customer service has been great so far, and once I get my order and try the flavors I will email again to find out how to order the flavors not currently listed in stock on the site.
Came across this review searching for a new Ecig. Tried one last year but the quality of it was horrible. So I'm very interested in the GreenCig.
If I'm reading this all right, you can refill the carts? Is there a certain liquid I should buy for the greencig?
Thanks.

I ordered some from them also because nhaler was out. Excellent customer service and got some freebies also, vanilla and oriental. I can't stand the kr808D-1 carts so I am hoping that these will produce more vapor and less of that nasty throat hit. Im looking for a vape along the lines of the 510 with more flavor and less of the hassle.
Stay away from the GreenCig USA site they charge double what Drew or any other place does, they charge like $48 for 10 carts vs $28 from Nhaler, so be warned. I would only buy carts if I was desperate from that place.
The 220 is the longer battery, yes the GC is that great of a product I have tried a number of them and this is by far the best of the bunch with modding. I would stay away from Smoke Everywhere or Smoke hut deals in the malls. Yes I would say it's the best I have tried, I have talked with someone who uses the GreenSmoke which from what I understand is very close to the GreenCig if not it's equal but I can't say for sure about that. I reposted the video here on how to refill the GC cart with a syringe, take note that the syringe in the video is the first one I found and was too thin gauge but I now have one that is much bigger like for drawing blood that works great since the thick fluid travels through the needle better. Save your cart, I have not had to throw one out YET except for one I screwed the pooch on taking apart to refill it thats why I use the needle method anymore plus the needle method is so much cleaner and easier. Anyway look on the next page for reprint of those videos sorry for the multiple post.
