cartos compared to dripping on an atty?

[Goady]

Hey all, been lurking around the forum for a little while now when i decided to read up on what e-cig would be best for me. I ended up going with a KR 808, but i was kind of curious on the comparison between cartos and dripping on an atty.

I haven't tried using any 3 piece configs so far, just the cartomizers really and was wondering if it was even worth trying out the 3 piece since cartos seem to give a decent amount of vapor and good flavor most times.

I'm sure this has probably been asked a million times before, but couldn't think of any questions i haven't already read about other than this one for my first post. Sorry if it seems redundant to those that have been on this forum for a while.

I have a KR808D-1(actually several, loved it so much after the first kit I bought a total of 4 kiits). I tried 2 3 piece e-cigs before getting this one. I found that refilling the carts all the time, on both 3 piece e-cigs, was a big drawback for me, so I have those put away for backup or giving away to someone. Also, I started wondering how often I would have to replace the atomizer. Being able to refill and clean the carts on the KR make it just as, if not more, cost effective. With the KR, I don't worry about the juice leaking out of them, when traveling, like I did the others. I don't know anything about "dripping", but if you want great vaping, I think you already found it. If you want to test out atomizers, the 901 works on a manual KR. It has a cooler vapor, and is also in my backup pile. You can also get an adapter for a 510 atomizer to a KR battery. The 510 is a warmer vapor with a better throat hit, but, again, the refilling often wasn't for me(also in my backup). Hope I've helped.

I forgot to add that the 510 would also be used on a manual KR battery.

The cartos work out well for lots of folks, as they are simple and usually do the trick and provide acceptable performance. For better performance, a 3 piece like the 510 is superior, but requires a little more "fiddling". I prefer a 3 piece because 510 vapor is extremely thick and smoke-like, and you get lots of it with a fairly small hit. There's a reason the 510 is the most popular model on the forum I'd recommend grabbing a $2 kr8 batt to 510 atty adapter and a few atomizers and giving it a try.

Yeah thats really the main reason why i was thinking about giving it a try. Watching some youtube videos of the 510 and theres just insane amounts of smoke with some of them. Granted, with the juice i just recently got (70/30) i'm seeing nice vapor of my kr 808 as well. Any info on the cheapest source for 510 attys? i've looked around a few places, but there are far too many different stores to find an answer fast.

when i said smoke i meant vapor, but can't edit yet so just wanted to make that correction

Good Prophets and Mad Vapes both sell the adapters and 510 atties, though I think only Good Prophets has both in stock right now.

Rocky Mountain Vapor 8.00 Each.. free shipping over 14.00... that's where I got mine

aight awesome, ill check out those places and maybe order the adapter and atty a little later. Just started using my premium cartos i got from V4L today, and the vapor production is so great on them that i wonder if its worth bothering anymore to be perfectly honest.

Will more than likely still grab an adapter and an atty or two just for backup in case i run out of usable cartos for some strange reason.

A 901 atty will work on 808 batts without an adapter.

yeah i kinda figured as much, but the adapter is cheap enough anyway. only like 3-4 bucks and i hear a lot more about 510 style atomizers than 901 style atomizers as far as vapor comparison goes. the reason for trying the 510 configuration is really just for a comparison to the cartos i'm using currently--basically to see what i'm missing out on or if i'm missing out on anything.
