boge was my go to carto and here lately i have had hit or miss on them. im in hunt for a new carto.. the kranger are nice but air draw gets very tight after a day or two.. iv heard good things about the smoke techs but have yet to try them
I just tried some Boge 2ohm lately. While they had a nice flavor at no more than 3.8V they really seemed to not hold much liquid or get the liquid they did have to the coil very well. It was almost like dripping, as frequently as I had to add liquid. I'm not sold on them.
A carto that I have had very good experience with was from madvapes. Their clear 1.5ohm dual coil. Now that I've got a Lavatube I'm thinking about bumping up to a higher resistance though.
BTW - Have you been over to our local vape shop, Vapoligy? In Garden City behind the Army/Navy store. Jim's a real nice guy, and building up stock based on what people are asking for.

yes i know Jim. We need to get a flavor swap going here in Boise. I have a lot of flavors to get rid of... Ive been doing DIY mixing i just dont need the flavors that i have bought. Hes got some stuff but not that much for those of us who like to vape at 5volts..

I use 2.5 ohm dual coils on a ProVari at 6 volts and I'm really enjoying those. Switched to them from Boges. Just my opinion though, but probably worth a shot if you're using a tank.
I have a ProVari as well but i can only get the taste i like from dripping.
i hate that carto taste. 5 volts is my sweet spot. ive been useing Boges with the little ma ma tank but ive been dripping i hate that carto taste.. and ce2s taste like plastic.....

I've switched from Boge's to IKV cartos and have noticed a big difference in taste. I don't get that plastic/chemical taste that I was getting with Boge's. Been using 801 Fusions so I'm not sure about the ones with 510 connections. You could always use an adapter, though.
Some people say that removing the condoms and rubber doughnut (mouthpiece), and then letting them air out for a few days before filling helps.
Would cleaning them with hot water Before use get rid of the plastic/chemical taste ? Seems just the LR ones have that taste but I may be wrong.
Im not sure i guess ill just drip untill i find something that works and dosent taste funny..
I cant stand filler based cartos either but using e2's in a tank or syringe mod removes that plastic flavor.
Jim at vapoligy is great btw!

Well I tries another method that seems to have worked. I used a dry child's oral medicine syringe ( well I used the turkey baster style ) to pull dry air in and out several times ( like the drying step of this style cleaning process ) before filling. Granted I am not sure this cartomizer would have tasted bad but I had had the problem with another from the same box . Worth a try before using just as a precautionary step.
I've been using the Boges for quite a long time. There's a trick with them and that's to get them fully saturated on the first fill. I drip into them most of the time, but on the first fill, I use a syringe. Photo below. That's a plastic "dispenser tip" on the syringe and I use a toothpick to block the hole from the top.
The defective rate is a bit high with them unfortunately. I'd say one out of ten just don't work right from the get go. I just chalk it up as part of the cost of vaping. Though early on, I made a big order of them at wholesale so it's tolerable.

Thanks for the info and pic. I haven't tried that yet. I use the condom/cover method but that looks interesting.
No offense to anyone but the condom method was a nightmare. I wasted tons of juice! I'm sure the best way to fill a carto is with a syring but since I don't have a syringe I use the Taryn Spin and that works great.
Never had a problem with the condom method. I fill the rubber half way and slowly slide the cartomizer into the liquid. I push very slowly until i see a bubble on the top. I then remove the rubber and suck away any extra juice with my syringe and put it back into the bottle. Done.
I use the condom method to prefill my boges before i put them in my tanks. I found that a good pumping method of the condom pulling juice up and down through it helps to saturate the entire carto.
Also any juice thats left over in the condom is squeezed out and put into my tank.
No juice is wasted
