These Boge LR cartomizers are bumming me out man. I've used them before--no problem. But this last batch --- I can't get a good taste---kind of burnt plastic--not overwhelming--but there. Must have been made on a Friday at 4:30. And I have three boxes---and these were to replace some defective Smoketech dual coils---can't get a break. Still--I'm not smoking!!!

I recently ordered some Boge 2.0 and the first one tasted burned and unvapable. I thought maybe I didn't get enough liquid in it and burned the filler. The rest have been fine since I started filling them condom method.

To DLL9MM: I just got some Gotvapes 2.6-2.8 fluxomizer deluxe CE2 and these are fantastic, although they needed some tweaking to get them working. I hate to have to mess with something to make it work but in this case WOW they are worth it IMO. They are outperforming the Boge 2.0s that I love so much and do not drain my Riva battery nearly as fast.

I don't have any out of this last run of them. I order from greenhouseone and I've always had fantastic luck. I'm glad I stocked up on a hundred a couple months ago before the "disaster" hit.

How many drops are you putting in them? A new one should take 25 or more. To top off, 15ish.

Also, what ohm are they and what device are you using? If you're using lower than 2.8ohm, stick to 3.7V devices. For 2.8ohm and higher, you can use a higher voltage devices.

I'm using 3.7, and I'm not sure on the ohm rating. I wish they would mark this information a little more pronounced--but they are marked as low res. I filled one up and kept spinning until I got close to 30 drops in--quite impressed with that--and it seemed to work better--better taste. But it seems from what I've read that there has been a not so great batch lately.

I have had this problem as well. I have purchased cartos from a number of suppliers and periodically I have received a batch that tasted like garbage. My thinking is that there is a bunch of crappy filler that has been used (they are made in China). I just wish there was some quality control on these things. I just love buying packs of empties that taste like old socks.

Riva 901 or 510?
