5C, i just realized I asked you the same question about best stuff to use on the infinity on our other thread about cartos and such.

Wharf,,I'll go back and look at my orders from IKV and check the ohms on the existing cartos I have here. Also, I did give the V2 gold and all my cartos plenty of time to settle after I fill them...especially the first time....like a minimum of 30 minutes to overnight. They all work....but they don't seem to last as long as what I hear from you guys and gal (bov) I'm gong to hunt down the V2 gold and try it again. I couldn't get past the burnt taste the first try...but heck! you just never know.

Bov..I also have SR BOGE cartos from nhaler here. I actually think I'm probably sitting on various cartos that can be used on my infinity. Thanks for all the input. There's always the learning and experimenting curve with this stuff....and it's so much fun.

Yep when the line is in the center it is (on average) about 4.5. Mine is a little lower but that's an average. So if you are leaning to the left (pun and literally) then you are vaping lower than 4.5 and shouldn't be burning cartos unless you got LRs by accident. Oh!! You said you are hanging with the new shop owner up there right? I bet she's got a meter!! I bet she'd be glad to help you check the resistance on cartos as well as the voltage on your PV.

And I know there are plenty of folks who love the V2 Golds, but I got a burnt taste out of mine too when I tried them. Once it tastes burnt there is no salvaging it. The only thing I could do to get them to taste decent for me was fill and let it sit for a lot longer than the usual 30 mins so I just gave up on them.

The new shop owner is so busy she hasn't had time to check out all the latest and greatest. She sends her new vaping customers up with learning to drip right off the bat. She sends them out the door with a kit, drip tip, and that's it. She's learning alot from me and big ice dog about cartos and stuff. She doesn't sell the mods we are all vaping on....but she fell in love with my infinity and little ole me gave her her first experience with the vv!! Her clientele at this point are "babies" experiencing their first vape from the stinkies. Needs to keep it simple at first.

Back to topic....i got 5 of the black fusions from IKV....and the first one lasted me 5 days before it stopped absorbing juice very well....so I think that's good?

I think it depends on what type of juice you are using. I have one that just decided to clog on me tonight...but it's been going for about 3 weeks on a darkish home made juice (my version of butterscotch cookie). I have another one that's still going strong at 2 weeks using my home made clear Caramel Cream. Both are about 70/30 Pg/Vg blends. I also don't use any sweetener.

I notice my cartos still have lots of "power"........but they stop absorbing juice very well after a few or more days. The filling just stops taking the juice. It runs through too soon...no more absorbtion, but still plenty of power. It doesnt matter what type of juice I'm using. The lack of absorbing the juice is a constant. Almost all my juices average 70/30 pg/vg.

I have been using the ikv v2 gold and the bloog fusions and i am not real crazy about the v2 like the fusion better. But I keep going back to the XL duel clear 2.5 from nhaler and like them the best. I can see when they getting low and just refill them using them on my Darwin. Thing I like about the Fusion is its a horizontal coil, not sure about the V2 dont think it is.

I use 100% PG tobacco flavor in mine and like any other cartos I've had some last close to a month and some last close to a day but the norm is 2 to 3 weeks for me.

The Fusions were talking about are the 510/801 Fusion from Ikenvape (the best cartomizer made). BTW I got that straight from Fusionman and he knows.

You make me Laugh.... A Lot !!!!!

So this Fusionman guy, is he really as nice a guy as they say ???

He's really a nice guy Wharf but it costs him allot to keep up his quest so I was thinking maybe we should all start sending donations to him to help him on his journey of truth, justice and making sure everyone has a Fusion on their Buzz.

We'll just have to petition Obama for more stimulus money to help with his noble cause.


BTW Fran, still waiting on the forever money he promised us earlier.

Excuuuuuuuuuuse Me. You kind of twisted that around. It's you that were supposed to be sending the check. At least you said it was in the mail and Me and Fran just took you at your word........What.....oh...okay..... Fusionman wants me to tell you that he still has faith in you.
