e-liquid.cn just upped their minimum to 100 pieces! There was also someone on the classified forum who was pre-selling almost like a co-op and his latest order was rejected by them. The returned his Paypal payment and told him he would need to transfer the money or use Western Union.
If this helps, the link below is the name of the company on the official photos. They might be the actual manufacturer.
Microcig Innovation Technology
I just recvd an order of XL "v4's" today from someone I frequent. They weren't wicking worth a damn, so I pulled one apart and found, much to my surprise, FILLER MATERIAL! A thin piece wrapped around the stem.
It appears that the filler is holding onto the juice and not letting go! v4's aren't supposed to have any filler material are they? If not, then it may be that my vendor got duped?
Thanks,
Ken

You are correct MistressNomad. Although the actual decomposition point is 280C (lower than it's boilng point, as opposed to the reverse ratio with PG).
It is really only of "minor" concern with the extreme HV mods (5v+). Again, minor in that as I stated it is unlikely, but possible.
Others have in fact reported detecting acrolein with HVs using high concentrations of VG.
Anyhow, I digress and refer this particular discussion where it belongs, in the thread mentioned previously.
On the current topic, I must say I absolutely LOVE the E2 cartos and haven't looked back! (aside from my new cartos I recvd today)

Have tried both the XL and short ones which I got about 2 weeks ago so not sure what version. At first they were great but started noticing the flavors weren't coming through so went back to my 510 cartomizers. But reading here about the new version so will have to give those a try now and hope for an improvement.

I just ordered 10 regular 510 C2 Rev. 4's from awesome vapor. $9 for five of them, plus $5 for shipping. Been dying to try these. They say they are out of the xl ones.
I just ordered some of the XL rev 4 to try out. I'm interested to see if they're any better than the regular mega eGo carts. Or at least easier to fill maybe.
To my understanding, Royal Smoker gets their CE2's from the China manufacturer MIT. I'm not sure where the US sellers get them but I bet it's the same supplier.
Has anyone tried these on a 5-6v mod yet? I've been using mine on 510 battery and also my ego/riva. I love the vapor production on the ego/riva.

Gregg,
Try cleaning your CE2's. I did with one of mine and it works wonderfully now. Just clean it like you would a regular atomizer. I used alcohol but you have to remove the 3rd plastic cap. It's kind of a pain to put it back in though. Becareful when doing it.

I find with my C-E2's the inner cap/ring is easier to put back in after cleaning if I rub a little VG on it so it slides into place.
All the best,
Wing.
Glad to hear people are liking these. I'm pretty stoked to get my shipment of 2E-r4's(2nd Edition-revision 4). I figured I was rolling the dice, but I ordered a 30 pack directly from the manufacturer. Would have had them here by now, but it's some sort of national holiday in China this past week, so I'll let ya'll know whe they get here and I can juice one up and vape it.
Well.. my xl ce2 order just came in. I only have the mega eGo cartos to compare to, so limited experience for sure. So far I like them. Nice pull and a warm draw. Definitely less messy and fiddly to fill than the megas.
I've tried my two favorite flavors so far. Both are fsusa 50/50 36mg. Forest fruit tastes just great. Lots of warm tasty vapor. Enough that I filled another one to have it ready to go. Vanilla not so good. Tastes a little burnt, especially when hitting it more than two times in a row. Not so bad I'll toss it, but will definitely try some other flavors and leave the vanilla for the megas or dripping.
I'll be interested to see how these work longer term.

I hope I'm lucky with my order, so far they've been very responsive to my e-mail's, but some people seem to have had a pretty bad experience with them so now I'm just waiting to see what happens...
The bad experience people are getting from them are the r4s that aren't r4s. They are being called .......omizers? Or r3.75s. They are coming in with glops of silicone and some have what seem to be fluval. It seems that the only complaint I'm hearing from the actual r4s are as in my case, that because the ohms are low, they aren't wicking as well as they should be.
You shouldn't have that problem with your KR808s.
I have a TON of bastomizers AFTER I was ASSURED they were revision 4. Minr have filler and glops of hot glue. It is NOT silicone, but just plain old hot glue. I can turn it back into liquid with a lighter. That is ONE of the many reasons I am ...... at e-liquid.cn. I was also told they are in fact R4 I was shipped, and that I am a liar and I could not return them. I even sent them pictures to have them tell me they have never sent out cartomizers that were made like mine...
Just so you know. You are not the only one who has been screwed by RS/e-Liquid.con
I too got sucked into all the Hype and hope that these cartos would be the Holy Grail of vaping. I ordered 30 XL 510 cartos from RS. The first carto I used leaked so bad that it ruined an eGo automatic battery. The second one worked ok. The third one had smashed threads on the battery connector which would have caused a dead short in a battery. Out of 30 cartos, 13 had smashed battery threads making them DOA.
I waiting on contacting RS for a replacement of the 13 DOA cartos because at that time people were receiving cartos that had Hot Glue inside them and some Mystery Fluid on the wick causing a terrible taste. When it finally seemed that people receiving usable cartos from RS I contacted them for a replacement of the 13 DOA cartos I had.
I received back a long, rambling e-Mail in broken English informing me that because I had posted negative comments about their products on the ECF that they would not return the DOA cartomizers I had received. Many other members have also been refused replacements of their defective cartomizers.
So dont oettinger that you are the only one.
RS/e-Liuid.con is NOT a reputable company and their Complete Lack of Quality Control is Inexcusable.
I'll be sure to share my experience with you all when I get my delivery from e-liquid.cn. I don't like to jump to negative conclusions right away, I want to give them a fair chance to take care of my order. Every company has growing pains and makes bad decisions about customer service from time to time. The real question is are they able to turn it around. If they are creating advances in the field and managing to get them into the consumers hands (even if it's a little too soon sometimes) they should be given a shot at getting their service and QC up to snuff. At any rate I'll keep ya'll posted.
