I'm looking for input on XL sized tank cartos, with 2 hole/slots. I prefer LR. I've heard Boges are not really the best choice these days. What brand would you all suggest. Links would be helpful.
Better than Boge?

I got a 5 pack of Boge and I really dont like the taste. I was getting some singles from a local store that worked & tasted good not sure what brand they are.
If the store has a good web site, you should be able to find out. If it's XL, and not boge, I'd guess smok, but I've been wrong more than once today.
I've mainly been using boge without any problems. Everyone seems to love ikenvape cartos but I gave up trying to get my hands on those because they sale out so quickly when I'd try to get them.
My favorite cartomizers are either the 510 Fusion (flanged) or Platinum (flangeless) from Ikenvape. https://www.ikenvape.com/SearchResults.asp?Cat=1860
I have found these to provide better flavor and vapor, and to last longer than Smoktech or Boges. These are often hard to get, as they are quite popular and are in limited supply from a single vendor. Ikenvape commissions an un-named China manufacturer to make these to their specifications with a better grade of polyfill material, higher quality atomizers and steel tubing, and specially designed air flow. This results in a superior cartomizer. Ikenvape gets as much quantity as the manufacturer will allow.
You can sign up for the "notify me" email alert when these come back into stock. However, when they are in stock, do not procastinate. They will sell out again within 48 hours.

I'd like a better choice for 35mm carto than boge. Ikenvape never has what I need in 510.
It looks as though they only go down to 2Ω. That bothers me. I prefer a maximum of 1.5, so far. I guess I'll hve to see what I think of higher res on a regulated mod.
Thank you very very very very much!!!!
I got in my order and now im finally waiting on vape mail for the first time. No other product or price has motivated me until now since im happy with my B&M EXCEPT carto supply/options. IBtanked will be next on my list though. I looked around and personally i cant find a better deal on a Pyrex/SS 19mm XL tank.
Now i can finally relax and i know relief is on the way. Its Baditudes fault too.
I thought i was happy with clearos until i read his carto blogs. Now im hooked on carto flavor. Ive been stressing over the lack of supply and i was stuck paying $3each for SMOK 1.5ohm dual coils which are only OK. I could get 1.7ohm single coil SMOKs but not exactly the ones i want. The 1.7SC XLs would also flood too easy with my 70PG/30VG juices.A HUGE THANK YOU AGAIN!!!

Glad that helped ya
Let the stalking of the mailman begin!I only ordered 10 also. Not because im unsure about quality but because it seems they are in high demand. 10 should last me awhile and still give others a chance to get some too. Ive got some SMOK XL SC unpunched i can use when i get my IBtanked and punch them myself. I bought a bunch on sale for $1.39 each. Now i should be set for a couple months thanks to you. I totally forgot to check that email addy and probably would have missed the boat.
CartoGate is annoying me and im sure its been annoying for everyone else also.

I don't know if it is or not... I'm still on my first set of Boge cartos, and have yet to try any other brands. I've placed an order for five fusions and five platinums; I hope to do a head-to-head with the Boges when they arrive.
So far, the cartos are working well (plenty of vapor, no dry hits, etc.), but they're not delivering the amount of flavor other folks claim to get. I keep using the two tanks I bought simply 'cause they look good and hold more than the clearos.

Thats the problem locally though. There are no Boges available and at one time it appears they went through some QC issues. Ive been using SMOKs and i find them to be "ok" but mostly over priced. Im sure i can find some Boges online but i did not want to order a bunch just to find out they are not much better than the SMOKs.
The Ikenvapes are reasonably priced IMO and seem to be highly recommended. At the very least, they are in the same price range as the Boge F16 cartos which seem to be out of stock at many vendors.
