Cartomizer question

[MaileSmyth]

Got my Joye 510 and it's been working quite well for me with the cartridge/atomizer setup. I'm thinking of getting carto's for the flavors I use most often, but had a question about the body material.

Is it the same plastic as the cartridges, metal like the atomizers, or something else?

I ask because I tend to hold the 510 with my teeth quite often, and don't want to get the cartomizers if they are going to end up cracking or breaking on me.

Between my wife and myself, you can tell who uses which carts, because mine are covered in teeth marks over the last 1/4 inch or so.

the regular sized 510 cartomizers are metal. They put different colored stickers over those. (black, silver) The clearomizers and different modded cartomizers are sometimes plastic or poly tubes.

Metal is good. They would probably stand up even BETTER than the carts against my teeth.

Thanks.

And on a slim 510 you need standard resistance. I recommend Boge 510 standard resistance, the most popular 510 cartos. And to get longer good performance I use juices with 20% or less VG, and I avoid juices that leave a lot of cart-clogging (and atty-clogging) flavoring sediment so I am mostly using lighter clear juices.

The body of cartos are metal, sometimes it will have a colored sticker wrapped around it. Most cartos come with a flexible rubber type material mouth piece that I found very comfortable to hang from my teeth. You won't be able to grip it and hold it up right like you would an analogue but it's better than biting on metal.

I would recommend getting a couple of drip tips to try. I prefer the plastic types, better mouth feel and no metal taste.

I get the 510/901/KR808D-1 plastic and delrin drip tips at LiteCigUSA.net

And note - on a slim 510 you should not use low resistance atomizers or cartomizers - they have the potential to damage a slim battery. Standard resistance is usually around 2.8-3.2 ohms. You could probably use down to 2.5 ohms but you would wish you had longer lasting batteries - they will use the charge up faster.

These cartomizers (dual coil) are probably the best thing on the market IMO. cheap and they vape AMAZING

I have the standard 510 batteries, so they probably wouldn't be such a great idea on it.

Half my vaping is usually either in a car, or walking, so dripping is out for those occasions. I think I'll give the Boge a shot, and see how they work for me. Might get some drip tips for home use also.
