I'm currently vaping with Blu (plus analogs when out of gear) and my wife is still smoking analogs. I'm looking for a good 510 cartomizer model for both of us, but I need something RELIABlE! I don't mind filling up a cart every time I want a cigarette, but it would probably annoy the hell out of my wife. How long can you vape on a cartomizer from Vapor Kings?

I'm looking at their "Vapor King Ultimate Ultimatum Shorty Kit" because it seems to literally have EVERYTHING. But I don't want to fork over $180.00 for 2 kits and have them suck. Has anyone had any experience with them? What are your honest opinions?

Thanks!

I love the Vapor4Life cartomizers, which I think are the ones you are wondering about based on your description. I started with 510s, then shifted to 801s as something I liked more, then after eight months shifted to the Vapor4Life Vapor Kings. A post about my final shift to the Vapor Kings from Vapor4Life is here: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...rtomizer-v4l-compared-atomizer-510-801-a.html.

I find that two Vapor4Life cartomizers are about equal to a pack (20) of cigarettes. But there is no absolute formula for this. It depends on the strength of nicotine and the amount you like to puff. Different people find that they want to use more or less cartomizers at differing strengths.

My only suggestion for change in your new plan is to go for larger batteries. If you want the e-cigs to feel as much as possible like cigarettes then automatic shorties are best. But if you want the best vaping experience combined with the least hassle then manual XL batteries may be a better choice.

vaporkings.com is a company and a very good one. The Vapor King Ultimate Ultimatum Shorty Kit is a model of ecig sold by the company Vapor4Life. Do not get the two confused.

The Vapor King model ecig is the same as a KR808d-1 model ecig. Both have different length batteries available, but I do believe that only V4L sells the shorties.

A word to the wise on getting the Shorty batteries from V4L. They are decent, but they only last a couple hours. You'll be changing them out and having to recharge quicker than you go through a cartomizer.



Happy Vaping!!!

oohhhh... my bad, sorry, wasn't reading clear enough. lack of sleep.. I'll hushup and go away.

Oh jag that wasn't directed at you! Sorry!! I only said it because I mixed the two up at first and I think a lot of people do. I like vaporkings.com and they have the KR808d-1 available :)

Something that I missed in the OPs original post is that they want 510 cartomizers. The Vapor King kit is not a 510 model.

Yeah, that had me blinking for a moment as well.

firefox335, there are 510 cartomizers available. Don't use 'em myself, so I can't make any specific recommendations.

Honestly...Head over to cignot.com You can get two complete kits for 35.00 each. And you wont find better customer service !!

warlike is probably the only one of us that understood the OP correctly in the first place :) and his post hit it on the head with the recommendation to go to cignot.com to get 510 carto sets for the best price.

Hey, thanks for all the great replies! :) I was talking about vapor4life. I checked out vaporkings.com and cignot.com, but I'm really drawn toward the vapor4life. 2 cases (one is a PCC), a passthough and lots more goodies. I just wanted to make sure it was a quality product. As far as the short automatic batteries only lasting a couple of hours - hey right now I'm using Blu and I have to swap batteries about every half hour, so a battery that lasts 2 hours or so would be AWESOME!

I agree you'll want a longer lasting battery. If you're ultimate goal is to switch to cartomizers, why go with any manual? They're really only neccesary for dripping.
I suggest a KR808D-1 automatic XL kit from MVS for $30 & V4L cartomizers. With the XL you should get about 5 hrs use before you'll need a recharge.

I started with the Vapor4Life Ultimate Ultimatum Kit. Didn't think I would use all the chargers, but I DO NOW!

So you get 2 batteries, a 5-pack of cartos of your choice, a PCC (personal charging case), a USB pass-through, a wall-charger, a USB charger, and a carrying case.

I keep my PCC charging and then when going out, you grab the charged PCC, put a battery in it, throw it in your pocket and not have to worry about your battery dying on you before you get back home. The pass-through is awesome since you can use that at your PC and not have to drain your batteries. In the meantime while using your pass-through you can be recharging both your batteries - 1 on the USB charger and 1 in the wall charger. The carrying case is just for looks and convenience if you have a plethora of batteries or want to bring a few more cartos with you since the PCC only holds 2 (2 cartos, 1 battery).

So I do find having all the chargers very useful. And I like dealing with V4L. Hope this answers your questions!

PS. Forgot to mention, I have the regular size batteries, not the shorties, and I am pleased with the battery life. Have just ordered an Xl as I hear they last alot longer.

Well, I just ordered my Ultimate Ultimatum Shorty Kit. Ordered today and it shipped the same day! So I'm thinking it should arrive sometime next week. Can't wait. The carrying case (not the PCC) has room for one more battery, so I'm thinking in a bit I'll get one of the long ones. Maybe even a manual to try it out. Who knows?

I was getting my juice from yourecigarette. 30ml for $19.95, which I thought was a good price because it seemed that everywhere else I searched, 30ml bottles were going for $25 - $30! I now find that V4L has liquid for $12.50. Anybody use the liquid? How do you like it? I can't say anything bad about yourecigarette since they are very consistant, I love their menthol and I can set my watch by their shipping time. (Wish I could say the same for Blu *sigh*)

Well, my kit came yesterday. I really don't know why people were warning me about the short batteries. I tried for THREE hours with heavy vaping last night to kill my battery. I finally gave up and went to bed. Even the cartomizer is still producing vapor! I would have gone through 6 battery charges with my Blu and had to refill probably 15 times in the same amount of time. I really don't think I'll need my PCC to go to work either. with my drive to and from work, plus my breaks, I only get to vape for about an hour. I'm using my passthough at home just in case so I can leave for work with two fully charged batteries.

Okay, so while typing this the cartomizer just started to loose vapor production. But 3 hours? with this it looks like I might finally be able to break even. I could have NEVER done that with the Blu. :2cool:
