Clear 510 LR 1.6 Beta test thread

[Scorched]

It works great at 3.7 volt. I don't know how Scorched can use LR that high but it makes me think of how he came by his username.

With thoes cartomizers I'm really not sure how they would work at that kind of voltage. As for the ones I was using they can take that type of heat because both coils are rated at about 3.2ohms, making it 1.6ohms overall. Fourtanetly they do not "Scorch" at that voltage but the cartomizer does heat up very quickly. You cannot take more than 2-3 draws at a time.

yeah user error. which is why i guess you shouldnt write off things before you give them the full run through. otherwise though its become the only thing on my VMU for right now. but i cannot wait to get my hands on some of issacs DCs as with his filler and superb QC i think itll be my staple carto.
thanks again 5card for allowing to get one from yeah i glad i found out about what i was missing.

I've been using the clear 1.5 (1.6?) carto and it's working well on both my Reo Mini and eGo. I normally vape 6v but this is a good second choice.

Another thing I've noticed about DC is if you fill them and then let them soak in for awhile they seem to work better. That's an issue I didn't have with Isaacs clears because I could see where the juice was going.

greymattergirl I tried them at 5volts and they didn't taste good to me that high but I haven't found one that does for me. I don't know how they can vape a 1.6 ohm carto that high. That's 15+ watts.

I dont know crap about ohms law and all that but some people are saying that they do not pull the same amount of watts as if it was a single 1.6ohm coil since it is two 3.2ohm coils the watts are much less. I am not stating this as fact, just repeating what I have heard. Hopefully someone will come along that has more knowledge about it. Cant wait to try these, with the dc I have, I have also noticed that they get better as you go, its strange because I am used to them getting worse over time. I am glad you give them a thumbs up.

I should add that for those who like warmer and easier draws, the single coil performs slightly better. On an eGo at least. Maybe because it needs less juice from the battery and/or maybe just due to less filler to go thru.

Do these crack with certain juices like other clear ones?

I haven't had any crack, the plastic seems a much higher quality than the ones ive seen used on the clearomizers, etc, and I;m using totally clear juices, and very dark ones in them. Thay are pretty fantastic!

I've been using the clear DC's for about a month or more now, I don't see any real difference in these Smoketech carto's than any of the other ones out from Smoketech. The bigger mega DC's I happen to like much better than the smaller ones and the metal tube ones are much stronger of course than the plastic ones. The way they perform though is better than regular cartos in my opinion and I'm wondering who is going to be the first to come out with the Dual Coil Atomizer ;-)

Well, I'm totally interested. Using a Riva, with bogeLR carto's, and one ikenvape LRMega Carto (still going strong after 2 weeks, but only with the same juice). That being said, has anyone tried to clean these and/or add different juice to one?? I've noticed that cartomizers work best if you keep refilling them with the same juice without cleaning them. But it would be nice to be able to clean them and add different juice without a performance drop. Thx.

Yes, they are very simple to clean, wiggle off the clear tube first, unroll the filler and run under hot water, then even run the inner blanket and the coils under hot water, pad dry everything with a paper towel and you can even take the hairdryer to everything to dry all the way, re-wrap everything up just as it was put back in the tube and your ready to fill and use again.

I found one little black burn mark in the very center of the inner blanket, it washed right off and they are like new again after this clean.

Hey mwa, Are you talking about smoktech or Ikenvape cartos? I believe this thread was intended for beta testing comments on Ikenvape's new 1.6 clear cartos.

Somebody please correct me if I'm wrong. Just want to make sure we're talking about the same thing here.

 

[daniel5383]

been waiting very patiently for the last couple hours to order some of these...

I know its confusing but mwa is talking about the clear ones that other vendors sell but the cleaning process should still be the same and what he is speaking about should pertain pretty well to the ikv dual coils. Oh and also the 1.6 clear cartos are dual coils as well unless I am mistaken. I assume they are probably also smoketechs except that they have something different goin on with the internals. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

I don't personally clean mine anymore..I tried a few times, and no matter how careful I am, they never seem to work the same after. Yes, I have tried diff methods, so don't bombard me with messages of how I'm doing it wrong, lol. This is my personal opinion, I'm not saying cleaning doesn't work, just that in my experiance they aren't like brand new after doing so. I have tried refilling with diff juice though, and I don't have any problems..even going light to dark, or vice versa..granted when I do this I only use similar or complimentary flavors. I would never add peach after expresso for instance, but maybe would add adirondack after honeyflu or something of the like. Alot depends on your pallete, and how sensitive you are to the taste of your juices. I don't expect everyone will agree to my personal methods, but it works for me when juices are simialr, and keeps my cartos working longer without cleaning.

These are Smoketech cartos Pizza2me, and I do Beta testing for Issacs products, Smoketech is the only one that manufactures Dual coil cartos I believe, my comment was only saying I dont see any difference in these compared to the others I have been using from Smoketech and since these are Smoketech there shouldn't be any difference.!

I thought that Isaac said something about the way the coils were set in there were different but I could be mistaken, I would like to know if there is a difference, have you opened both of them up to see the internals, I assume you have not needed to with the ikvs since you just got them but figured I would ask.

Ok! Didn't know these were smoketech. Just wanted to make sure we are talking about the same thing.

Well I've re-filled this baby at least 45 times. It's getting kind of funky looking on the inside but it is still vaping like a champ. But it will never be as good as the Fusion.
Now I'm going to wait for a quad coil. Who knows where it will all end.

I dont know crap about ohms law and all that but some people are saying that they do not pull the same amount of watts as if it was a single 1.6ohm coil since it is two 3.2ohm coils the watts are much less. I am not stating this as fact, just repeating what I have heard. Hopefully someone will come along that has more knowledge about it. Cant wait to try these, with the dc I have, I have also noticed that they get better as you go, its strange because I am used to them getting worse over time. I am glad you give them a thumbs up.

Ohms law is ohms law no matter the number of resistors in the circuit. If the voltage is the same, then the total watts of power is the same whether it is two 3.2 ohm coils or a single 1.6. The difference is in the surface area and the fact they wick from two zones instead of one. The coils are placed in the bottom third and the top third of the filler and are a few mm apart so they aren't competing for juice to vaporize.

After a solid week of using my 1.6 single daily, it developed a tight draw. Not knowing much about how these things work or what to do. I decided to take it apart. It did not work the same after but I did find out the cause of the tight draw. There are 2 tiny holes near the threads that apparently got clogged with juice maybe? Anyway I did clean them out with a needle and the draw was substantially better afterwards. However It was basically ruined after that because of me taking it apart. Well, at least now I know what to do on a tight draw on these guys next time. Figured I would share the info in case this happens to anyone else.
