hi,

I've been using a 510 3 piece model and filling empty cartridges (carts?) with liquid/filler. I would really like to try cartomizers (cartos?) with my 510. Can anyone steer me in the right direction of a good vendor? Are the cartomizers going to be compatible with the 3 piece 510 that I have? or will I have to purchase a 2-piece one? confused? I guess what I am getting at is: how do these work?? I would like a 5 pack that I can refill a few times.

Also, I have been using 12mg nic flavor from DIY Flavor shack: caramel ry4 with Cappuchino flavoring (Lorann's). I would like to find cartos with a similar cappuchino flavoring that I can refill later.

I am also looking for a menthol set:

Xpress 510 Cartomizers

Can someone tell me if this company is good, and if these cartos are going to work/fit on my 3 piece 510 thanks.

Basically what happens is that the cartos take the place of 2 of your pieces (the atomizer and the cartridge) and turn your device into a 2-piece unit. As long as you have 510 batteries, the 510 cartos should work. I don't know that specific company well, but I'd suspect that the cartos are fine. You might want to try some blank ones while you're at it, if you have some juice to fill them with.

The cartos are great because they are so handy for taking out with you and not worrying about refilling so often, but they will most likely give you a bit weaker hit than your atomizers because they usually run at a higher resistance. I use cartos on higher-voltage devices, so I don't really have a problem. If your 510 is good for you and you're not constantly feeling like you need something stronger, as in warmer, more throat hit, etc., you may do fine with cartos and the standard battery. If they feel too weak to you and you don't want to truly go to higher voltage, you might try an eGo or equivalent battery. The reason for this is that, even though it's still not higher voltage, it should keep more voltage longer because it lasts far longer before needing a recharge. You would still only need the eGo battery and the carto, though, for it to work (no 3rd piece).

I have the 510 as well and let me tell you something. The Cartomizers have made my 510 SO much more enjoyable. I'll keep the older stuff laying around just in case, but for me, I'll be using the cartomizers from now on. More vapor, much longer in between refills and the atomizers included in the ones I've gotten are outstanding! All you have to do when you get them is pull of the soft, white plastic caps, put 10-12 drops of your favorite liquid into it and then, start smoking! Give the liquid about a minute to hit the atomizer before you start vaping on it though.

I will not go back to the old stuff unless there's simply no other choice.
