Guys, forget the co-op, I just ordered 30 'normal' and 30 e2r3 401 cartos from China. I guess I could sell some when they get here. I bought them pre-filled with various flavors, it was only a few dollars more, so I said WTF. I also ordered 30 510 e2r3 cartos as well. :)
from where?

New business

This thread is being closely monitored by several suppliers and I know that for a fact. I've been contacted by several very nice representatives regarding our assessments of their products and how they can be improved. This really warms my heart. We're providing a valuable service here, folks, not only for our fellow ECF members but for the vendors and manufacturers alike. Things are looking up. Keep up the good work and watch your language. ;) We have company.

I also received the new Premium IKV 510 cartomizers, 2.9Ω. Isaac is a doll and hand picked the 2.6Ω ones for me because I had been bugging him and complaining that 2.9Ω would be too much for the Riva. Talk about customer service. They are wonderful. Just like the old SLBs only better. The lower resistance makes all the difference on the lower voltage batteries, but I imagine that these shine on 5v devices. Most of them are rated 2.9Ω. Easy draw, plenty of vapor, nice, clean taste. And of course these are very burn resistant--if kept moist.

Neo and Tibur and salt! Good Prophets finally carries the 3.0Ω blank 4081s. Time to order.

Old business

Now I know why I am so addicted to this thread. Its the company. ;)

Yeah, except on those rare occasions when they get all randy and immature. I'm not mentioning any names, mind you...:facepalm:

As opposed to when they were making them in the old grain silo and there was high risk of a dust explosion if anyone lit up. :laugh:

Hey, as long as we can smoke without any worried and make a lot of fog...:)

You'll have no problems whatsoever finding buyers. There are a lot of people looking to try the 510s. I'm not sure how popular the 401s are. Just offer them in the classifieds. They'll be gone in a few minutes.

I tried the 510s, courtesy WW, and I agree with Badkolo's assessment that they are not really cartomizers. He called them, aptly, an AWS (auto wicking system.) They are a hybrid between cartomizers and atomizers.

House: (to patient Esteban) I'd better not see you praying! I don't wanna have to fight for credit on this.


Theft? More like a variation on an immensly popular theme. :D

You're not seriously trying to claim credit for that one, are you? :D:D

and the XLs are only about a cm longer than the regulars. not sure how much more use we'll actually get from them before topping off, but maybe it'll help for us serial killers :D

i think they are designed more for use with the ego style batteries. this way they clear the cone with enough left to suck on without a drip tip or additional mouth piece. (*suck on* sorry... not sure how else to phrase it :):):D)

:shock:

Nice avatar. Legs will only take you so far. :vapor:

No....:laugh: Trueman is still on the Protege but it's getting kind of thin draws now. Time for an autopsy....

from where?

china, i presume:p

That's true, I did only get them in PG, sorry. :(

well, maybe with a good wash they'll be safe enough to try

"Neo and Tibur and Salt! Good Prophets finally carries the 3.0Ω blank 4081s. Time to order."

lol, katya, still got too many left from the trueman order. i've been vaping with the 808 e2 for the last 10 days;)

I'm pretty impressed so far with the lifespan of the E2 cartomizers. I have one now working great after more than 10 days of heavy use. I do notice an occasional metal taste (I've washed it out but it still comes back occasionally).

<sheeesh.. ya tell somebody that they have a "perfect ...", and they get all uppity on ya!>

Could you speak up? I can't hear you! :p

I've used three - one I pulled apart (on purpose ;-) it was working fine, and the other two - from WW approaching 3 weeks, are going strong. On each I got a slight metal taste at first that went away after several draws - but I'm vaping a really good french pipe (TW's) and Real Tabs (DV/TW) both rather strong flavors so either the metal goes or is covered up. I think it's gone after the initial drags....

Did you do any cleaning?

If the manufacturers and suppliers realy want to get the ball rolling for QC, they should send us cartos to test. I'm sure they know they will get absolute honest opinions of their products.

I placed my order with e-liquid.cn, it hasn't shipped yet, but hopefully soon. Shipping wasn't cheap, that's for sure.

The good suppliers actually do that. I will, hopefully, be getting some of those XL Truemans sometime next week from Ross at Vapors Etc. He ordered samples and would like us to take them for a spin before he decides to stock them. So, stay tuned. I'll share with those of you here who are interested in testing them. I'm not sure how many I'll have, maybe six or so, I'll let you know.
Just the facts Ma'am.:pop:
That would be that other thread, dear. :D

My goodness, how many did you get? That was ages ago. How do you like those kr808s?

I have one now working great after more than 10 days of heavy use. I do notice an occasional metal taste.

I get that funny taste too. Don't know what it is. And the carto runs way too hot and too harsh for me. The eGo cartos had a similar off taste after a while, come to think of that.

Very uncharacteristic slip, Kent. My remark was not directed to Zelda, but to Salt. I was talking about his new SoCal bad boy avatar.

But I guess it's a losing battle. Zelda, dear, could you please maybe consider zooming out a bit, say, 20-25%?

Where is Dr. Freud when one needs him. ;)

My E2 cartos stay fairly cool unless I really chainvape. The funny metallic taste comes and goes. Can't quite figure it out. The Ego cartos sometime have a plastic taste but that passes too. I'm assuming of course its from heat and plastic- kind of inevitable.


Katya anything for you! I was hoping I might get some free new cartos to test with the avatar but alas it's not working. Remember it was for the good of the carto thread. :) I'll have to look for a more serious avatar.

Well you're welcome to make suggestions on the "changing of the avatar". Should it stay or should it go? :toast:

After all you guys are the experts I'm only a neophyte here.

I figure if Katya can show off her golden breasts glistening in the sun, you can show off your legs.

`Nuff said.

We now return you to our normally scheduled bloviating.
