Cartomizer question.

[Sonso]

Can someone tell me what the difference is between 510 and 808? The ones I would like to replace has a recessed battery connection or the threaded end. And when I order them do I need to look for a specific resistance. These came with a starter kit and I knew nothing at the time I ordered it. Their website offers filled cartomizers but no empty ones. I didn't realize how easy it would be to burn them up if they got dry and ruined most of them. I have a better setup now but think these would still come in handy. Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks

808's have a female thread on the carto male thread on battery.

Just be careful though, as some 808 lookalikes aren't made to work with regular 808's. Some companies do that so you can only use their stuff...

The male cartomizers are 510, and the female are 808. You can somtimes buy adapters so you may interchange them on certain batteries.

Threading.

If you have, say, an 808 battery and you want to run 510 cartos on it, you'll need an 808 to 510 adapter. (some places will say "808 battery to 510 atty" They will work on a cartomizer)

Recessed battery connection, between these two types is the 808.
808 have "innies" 510 have "outies" (on the threaded end of the carto)

True...very true.
Do you happen to know what brand your equipment is or remember where you got it? Then we could help better.

uba egar Is there someway I figure out if they are designed to only accept one thing as you Mentioned. The set I have is Firelight Fusion.

Innies and outies lol I love it and for me makes it very easy to understand!

 

[uba egar320]

I'm sorry, but I'm not sure how one would tell the difference without trying to screw one on and see. I'm not familiar with that brand, but I'll look real quick and see what I can find.

 

[uba egar320]

found it!

Firelight Fusion E Cig Reviews, Smarter Than The God Particle

It's a kr808d1...which means that normal 808 stuff should fit it fine.

 

[Sonso]

Thank You! Being a newb is really hard! You guys on here are just great. I looked that darn websites over and my instruction book and couldn't figure it out. Ya saved me!

 

[uba egar320]

No problem!

Good luck, and hang around the boards some if you run into issues again. TONS of info here.

The male cartomizers are 510, and the female are 808. You can somtimes buy adapters so you may interchange them on certain batteries.

Or 801, or 901, or ???. So be careful with that or you might end up with a bunch of cartos that don't fit anything you have.
There is also 808-D1 and 808-D2, so just being 808 doesn't necessarily mean it will fit.

 

[uba egar320]

901 are atty's as are 801's. He's asking about cartos.

901 are atty's as are 801's. He's asking about cartos.

Oh really!

Never seen those...but to me, when someone says a 901\801, they're talking about an atty. Maybe I'm too old school. But I got the guy the info he needed to move on.

 

[uba egar320]

Do they even make 801 batts anymore? lol

That was my first internet order from esmokey treats...they were "finicky" on a good day.

 

[tj99959]

Actually that 801 Fusion is a darn nice carto. They look a little silly after you get done with all the adapters to get them to fit on most PV's tho.
I have a 801 top cap for my Mako

 

[uba egar320]

Oh, I thought I was in the money with my first 801 lol. It beat the pants off of the greensmoke I had at the time. A puresmoker protege with 801...ahh the good ol days...when a guy had to curse his pv to get a decent vape lol.

 

[Sonso]

Well I have upgraded to atomizer with a little cartage now but these little cig looking batteries are so handy. Oh and I'm not a he so I'll let you figure what I am! lol j/k
Thanks again.

 

[uba egar320]

Sorry about that lol
