Cartomizer--wow

[TODSHO]

I actually did flood them both..lol i tryed everything i could think of but both just taste really burnt and little to no vapor at all....i am disappointed to say the least..i hope i am the only one with this problem although i think dcot (another ecf member ) was having the same issue. Maybe just a bad run cause both of mine function the same. Odd to have two in the same order be bad. I might try some new ones but i think i will wait to see what kind of luck others have first. Right now, they are on the shelf! THEY TASTE LIKE THE POLYFILL IS WRAPPED TIGHT AROUND THE ATTY AND JUST BURNING...SO MUCH SO THAT IT BURNS MY THROAT!

Product Description
IN STOCK NOW!!!

The Leo Cartomizer
Made to fit your Boge Leo, this cartomizer holds 4ml of e-juice.
That makes it the largest cartomizer available for any personal vaporizer.
Resistance is 2.6 - 2.8 Ohm, per Boge.

I was quoted that, and sold that, yet other vendors were quoted 2.0 ohm, and were sold 2.0 Ohm. So there seems to be some error in communication with Boge

Sorry to hear about your seemingly bad cartomizer(s). I have been using one since friday with no problems at all. I also sold a bunch locally and no problems there either. Dont have an answer for you other than sh_t happens!. To help you out I can send you one if you'd like. Hopefully it will work What kind of juice you using?

Hmm, I've topped off every 8-9 hours of rather heavy use (twice so far). Got about 40-50 drops on refills. I am using it on an unsealed battery, so I'm having to be very careful about leakage... no problems yet. Hopefully the rest of them will perform similarly.

Just another shot in the dark here based solely on my own personal experience. I wonder if you may gotten the 2.0 version. I mention this because of my experience with the cisco atomizer when I was vaping a 510. Based on all the reviews I ordered a cisco atomizer thinking it would be the greatest thing ever. I got mine and put it on my volcano inferno and it just burned my throat and tasted awful. I read and reread allt he info about them thinking I was doing something wrong but in the end I am just not a low res person. I may be way off base here as I usually am but your experience sounds similar to mine with the cisco atomizer. If you are a low res vaper feel free to tell me to shut up any time you want.

I have one unsealed battery left. Oddly enough it stopped working with my atomizers and I was only using it to fill my cartos but I accidentally pressed the button while pulling off the mouthpiece and heard it fire. It vapes perfectly.

I have two and this happened to one of mine as well. I was packing it up to send to Jackel3 for a replacement when I tried it for fiftieth time and it worked! Cleaned everything carefully and now it works fine. I think the threads had just gotten too much gunk on them.

tested both cartos...3.1 and 3.3 ohms so not LR's..(you did get me thinkin though) and I would never tell someone trying to help to shut up.

Thanx paul1288..I appreciate your help..maybe I just got some duds..I have had a black cloud hangin over me for the last week.
I don't want to give up on the carto's..everyone else seems to be having good luck. On the juice..I am useing a light juice, just a tobacco, not a dark heavy juice.

Been vaping on my boge leo cartomizers from Leo Cartomizer - White Stag Vapor

All I can say after about 6 hours is wow....they were worth the wait. The only suggestion I would change for filling is after you get the end tip off take the cartomizer off battery in case you over fill it.

Going to put in an order for another 10 tonite...so hurry before all sold out....

Yeah, the GoGo giant cartos are good, but the flavor on these is distinctly better to me. I'm going to have to try the same juice in a fresh carto of each to compare them directly.

 

[mgmrick]

Yes I have used both the go-go and now the boge leo. The boge leo out preforms the go-go in every way.......

GoGo is easier to fill It's also only $60 for two 1300 mah batteries, Leo is $80 for two 800 mah batteries (though you get what you pay for in build quality). In every OTHER way the Leo is better.

I agree that the go-go is cheaper...in every way. but I feel with the bigger cartomizer the boge leo is easier to fill

well you are not alone on these since yesterday the carto i was using since friday died this afternoon. I opened another filled it and all i got was the burnt primer taste. Could not get it to go throught the wick. So i tried another same thing. So this time i pulled one from a different 50 pack and it has been working since noon. I believe (after taking one apart) that there is a hollow piece of tube that the wick goes through and that is wrapped with a material that is like a cotton pad and the the filler is around that. The wrapping may be to tight or dense to let the liquid get through so all you get it the burnt primer taste which is horrible. Hope the box of 50 that had the to bad ones in aren't all bad. Then theer is always the next box and the ones already sent

 

[paul1288]

I will say that if you have one that works it is awesome

 

[Jackal3]

Are you filling with a syringe? If not, be sure to add a few drops from the bottom of the cartomizer through the center hole. I'm wondering if just opening a new cartomizer and dripping into the top, that maybe the juice doesn't get all the way down to the bottom before you're vaping on it. This would cause a dry area at the bottom, which would heat much hotter/faster than the rest, causing a burnt flavor.

My first time filling I did it from the bottom hole only, putting in about 2ml. By my second fill I figured out how to remove the black cap from the carto cylinder. By my 4th fill I used a syringe and was sure to fill from the bottom upwards.

Remember, heat on dry or near dry poly fill will shrink it.

i also took one apart just to see how they where designed. The wraping that goes around the atomizer was burnt clean through and the polyfill was then burned to a hard brown crisp. I had to take it apart..curiosity got the best of me!

ape until

I did use a syringe/drip I also let it sit for hours with the same result. I found that if I dripped (after that) it would vape until what i dripped down the center was gone then burnt taste again. Gave up tried another and was sucessful on carto 3 from different box. Shouldnt be this hard. wonder if the tank system will be good or the Lea. anyone ever try the 302 penstyle from Boge?.

What did you use? I unscrewed the bottom off it and pulled it through. Mine wasnt bunrt though

 

[mgmrick]

So now that we have taken them apart...vertical or horizantal coil ? I filled both my by dripping from bone dry. So far (and early) they vape amazing.....well enough that I put in an order for another 10
