The three piece units use atomizers. The two piece units use cartomizers. I would suggest using healthcabin.net, for the hardware. It is less than half of Canadian brands. And buy the cartomizers in Canada, if you don't want to fill your own. If you don't mind filling your own, which is miles cheaper than prefilled, you can order blank cartomizers at health cabin, and eliquid in Canada. There are plenty of demos on this forum showing easy methods of filling blank cartomizers. Good luck and I hope you find what you want. What ever you do , you take a chance by ordering eliquid from China. Customs are very alert to stop nicotine from entering Canada. I have had some succes ordering from the US.

Cartomizers are hard to get through customs, because its hard to prove they do not have juice in them with them being sealed. That is the reason I don't carry them, and most likely the reason other Canadian vendors don't either.

To get cartomizers into Canada you would want to talk to bornagaist from here. He is the resident expert.

Mike, I am not sure what model the Instead e-cig is, but I can tell you that it is NOT Kr8 compatible.

If you look at the picture of the INSTEAD cartomizers, you'll notice that they have the male end. Which means they would want a battery such as the 510, with a female end. The Kr8 batteries have a male end, with the cartomizers having a female end.


Could be THIS model.....it's the only carto model outside of the ones we are more familiar with.

E Cig with Disposable Atomiser

Instead.ca do NOT sell any cartomizers that contain nicotine, so you are essentially just buying carts you'd need to boil out and refill. They are also ridiculously expensive! 4 dollars per cartomizer, plus taxes and 9 dollars shipping. Eat me.

Lastly, since these folks are based in both the US and Canada, I would be wary of where they actually ship from. I know very little about this company, and never hear it mentioned in ANY Canadian e-cig group or forum. They also do not participate in any Canadian discussion. That tells me that they could be a potential drop shipper from one standard location. I would contact them regarding shipping policies first. Better safe than sorry.


Alas, when it comes to pre-filled cartomizers we are at the mercy of the few US companies that do ship to us.

I bought from Instead........first place I bought..They sell three piece units. Very cheap, as in look and feel of this product.The carts are a hard plastic. Now I use Vapor king. Instead e-cigs work okay ,if you don't mind the excessive sound of air flow (way over the top).The product feels like a plastic toy. I never used it enough to really evaluate because...I would much rather vape from my e-cig from Vapor4Life, INSTEAD of that garbage. cheer's

They look like my RN4081 atties which are smoking everywhere and Njoy Pro brand, which is my favorite brand of ecig, thank you very much for the link I'm going to order some cartomizers from them.

Just an FYI, Instead do NOT sell anything containing Nicotine to Canadians.

Thanks for the tip bornagainst, I actually edited out that whole post once I looked at their prices, you are correct they don't sell nicotine. I was originally going to buy them and fill them with my own juice, but then I realized I only drip now, started last week don't use any carts for the rn4081 just carry a 3ml bottle with me, so a carto is really pointless. I got so excited initially because I had been looking for carto's and dbl carts for the RN4081 for over a month I actually forgot that I have no use for them :rolleyes:, drippings where it's at, clean pure no mess no carts to fuss with, my Njoy Pro is vaping like a champ.
