Carto or Carts

[pandatera]

I recently purchased a Joye 510 starter kit. Currently i'm using the carts that came with the Joye 510 kit. I find it alittle annoying having to refill the carts alot of times. Also i get alittle messy every now and then having ejuice on my hands and e cig while refiling my carts. I was wondering is it alot more convinence to use a carto instead? Can you vape longer w/ carto comparing to carts? Would it cost me alot more using carto then carts? Roughly about how many packs (5 cartos) would i need per month? I heard they can be refill and can use then for about (more or less) 2 - 3 refills. Also what is the difference between using a carto and cart? Will i get a better throat hit, better vaping experience, etc?

Thank you all

you could do something like this if you don't mind the way it looks The MAP-Tank E2 Mod 2.4 ohm
it holds 5ml of juice, I haven't tried one yet I've gone bottom feeder all the way.

I personally prefer the cartos. (I don't know if a low resistance tank mod would work because of the Joye 510 battery rather than an eGo/Riva.) To me, I'm not filling the cartos as often and the less often the bottles are open, the less mess I make. *klutz here*. I don't know that I would say that you'd get a better throat hit though. Depending on the juice, the taste might be "muffled". With some juices, that's not a bad thing.

he got 3.2ohm there too but it may look kind of silly on a 510 bat

You should definitely give cartos a try. They're cheaper than atomizers because they're meant to be disposable, but that doesn't mean they don't last a while. You can refill cartos several times if you take care of them. They can be cleaned. The methods are different from cleaning an atty and there are many different ways that people do it. You have to be careful with cartos so they don't burn. As soon as the flavor changes or even has the slightest burnt taste I top them off. How long you can vape a carto is going to depend on the size of the carto and how you vape, but I find that they generally last a bit longer than the carts.

I switched to using cartos exclusively when I'm away from home. I think they're much more convenient than carts because they're easier and quicker to change. The rest of the time I drip.

Hopefully someone can answer your questions rather. And BTW I don't think it's recommended to use LR (low resistance) cartos or attys on a standard 510. You probably need something with ohms from the high 2's to the mid 3's?

I think normal cartos hold from 1-1.5 ml liquid. The 510 cart holds .6ml and I don't know if the 510 is good at emptying it. You probably also don't want to burn a carto dry because you could singe the stuffing (if it has stuffing) or stress the atty and you probably want to refill them as many times as possible before the stuffing singes or atty dies.

I have no idea how many you would use per day or per week.

You definitely don't want to vape a cartomizer dry if it has filler. That's why when mine start tasting even the slightest bit "off" I top them off with more juice. If you burn the filler, you've ruined the carto.

Thank you all for your information. Just wondering as i was browsing the website for cartos, it says joye 510 cartomizer , doesn't say LR or show any ohms on the item description. So does that mean i can use them on my Joye 510?

 

[WomanOfHeart]

You should be able to. If it doesn't say LR in the description then they're standard resistance. Vendors are very good about pointing out the difference.

Read carefully. If they are low resistance, they should have LR on the description. If it doesn't show that, or the ohms on the description, then they'll be regular Joye 510 cartomizers.

Thanks it doesn't say LR so i guess they are the standard ones.
Sorry i have another question regarding passthru. I saw a Joye 510 passthru for about $13 - $15, and a Joye ego passthru (says can use for 510 cartos) for around $22 -24 dollars. For about $10 dollars more, would you recommend buying the ego instead? The ego one says it's a passthru and battery, can unhook from the usb port and walk around w/ it. The 510 one is just a passthru. Also would it be recommend to upgrade the ego passthru to 1000 mAh for $4.00 more? As for the battery life itself, will the passthru or battery with passthru last longer? I mean before the battery get fry and i need to replace it. I'm going to use the passthru on my computer desk most of the time, won't be walking around as much. Also one more question, how can i tell wat kinda of battery ohm it is? I'm looking at the item description and i can't find anywhere that tells u about the ohm on the battery.

Sorry for all these questions and ty for reading

Depends on what you want to do. The PT with no battery gives you about 4.9V right at the atty. You'll need a two amp usb to drive it. I have one because I'm at my computer a lot and I use it to save my batteries. I also have a two amp usb for the car and I can use it there also. The ego one allows you to unplug and go, as it says, but delivers normal voltage. The higher voltage isn't important to me but it does give you a chance to check out 5V vaping at a reasonable price. When I'm using it, I just hit the button for about a second on a four second pull. That heats the vapor plenty for me, but if you like hotter vapor, the 5V PT will certainly deliver. Another carto you might check out is the E2s at 2.8 ~ 3.0 ohm. The wick in them is made of silica and does not burn. Hope this helps. Later, JD.

Cartos are the way to go. I fill up a few with different flavors before work and im good. no mess no hassle. at home i usually just drip, or use the carts if im walking around the house. plus i have noticed on my riva 901 that the filling keeps getting pulled out in the carts which is annoying.

 

[trouble2k]

I would say definitely get the eGo passthru over the 510. It will give you the convenience of having the passthru + an extra, larger battery. I got one when I bought my original eGo kit a few months ago and I've never had a problem with it.

Interesting. A tad big, but for sitting at home on a passthrough, I could see that working.

I don't think Ive ever met anyone that actually LIKES carts.
