I know that cartos are cheap and meant to be disposable but I know many of us still like to get as much use as possible out of them. I used to hear people talking about getting weeks out of their cartos and thought they had to be lying! With the juice I was using, I was lucky to get a full day out of mine before that stale, "off" taste hit.

For a long time I loved a certain vendor's juice. I thought it was a great value. Until I realized that it was that juice that was making my cartos get to the "unenjoyable" stage so quick. It broke my heart to give them up.

So I thought we might could make a thread listing some juices that, fill after fill, keep tasting good and making the carto last longer.

I'll go first.

The only store bought, premade juice I buy now is kickbassvapor warm sugar cookie. It is a little tough to get and a bit pricey ($31 shipped for 2 30 ml bottles with extra flavor) but when I only use one carto every couple weeks or so, the price is justified.

I also diy and regularly use unflavored juice.

People are always asking for juice recommendations but being carto friendly is never a consideration. A "good" juice is one that not only tastes good but also economical. I don't care how cheap and great tasting a juice is, if it starts tasting funky after only a day, its not so cheap!

To me, nhalers juice. It always tastes the same regardless of what type of carto I use. It's PG but it's not really thin pg but my cartos last forever with his juice. It's amazing. Sometimes I just use another carto because I've been using it so long I think I should.

His high voltage juice is thicker. I've only tried a small bottle of it but liked the nhale/xhale better. But that's made for high voltage vaping, I was using it with an ego.

My Halo Menthol Ice leaves the carto white and I'm two months into this dual coil. Two cartos since August 11. Nothing else I've used comes close. It's not cheap at about $17/30ml bottle on sale, but it is free of sediment or flavorings that leave residue.

Halo is good with cartos, that's true.

Cartos are really pretty cheap though.

This is very true and a real downside. I splurge on only 2 vendor juices now and DIY the rest. The splurging ones are carto destroyers but so perfect to me that I justify it by rotating with my diy juices every other carto. Even with the DIY flavors, I'm steering away from dark colored flavorings or too much sweetener. I had one flavoring that tasted great buts its black! Like opaque black. The lighter the better and I never go above 30 percent VG.

Two vapers here equals twice the amount of cartos so yes I do see this as an issue and vape accordingly. Unflavored just doesn't cut it for me anymore- I have to have some kind of flavor.
