The picture below is a DC Mega that topped out at 55 drops,. We used the same formation as the Mega but with 2 horizontal coils. I noted a spot that needs to be worked on, but really they're amazing to use.

Well this is from a guy that is not an LR lover but this 1.6...Actually it metered at 1.5 is...let me put it this way, he did it again. This is an amazing cartomizer. I am using it at a straight up 4.0 Volts and the throat hit is great, the vapor is great(as per Ikenvape norm), and the taste is great too. It really has a nice warm mellow ,not hot, feel to it. I really liked the clear tubes, it let me see exactly when it was full instead of either too little or over filling. I used 50 drops and that seemed perfect. The tubes don't seem to be that thin flimsy plastic that has been used on other cartos but a firmer feel to it and there isn't any slip between the tube and the battery connector. The draw is also perfect for me. Finally I can say I have found a clear cartomizer I really like and an LR that is working very, very nice for me. I have to give you an A++ on this one Isaac.

Dan 5C If you like this your two bane's, LR and Clear, this must be one hellava cart. Can't wait to try it

Nice! That looks interesting.

 

[WomanOfHeart]

I can't wait to give these a go!

 

[5cardstud]

I'm still puffing on it and it's still going strong. The nice thing is you can see when the juice gets too low and refill before you come to that bad tasting puff. Your right Wharf I have never found a clear carto that is worth anything until now.

Update: This carto is getting better with age. I've refilled it probably at least 10 times since yesterday if not 15 and it is working even better. The vapor is great, better than when it was new.

that is awesome cannot wait to give these a try. issac makes everything better

Hi 5 card, you said a straight up 4 volts. Can you try it at 3.7 and see how that works. no vv here. I tried 5 of those long l.r. cartomizers and they just don't perform for me...still, that could be me.

All I can say is, WOW!! I'm running this on an eGo (am I going to blow out my battery u batt techies?)

If anybody likes the Boge LRs and are looking for a replacement, these are it! These 1.6s hit my sweet spot. TH and warmth is almost exactly like the Boge. (Note: for those that like it warmer and airy like me, take out the whistle tip and use a drip tip. Awesome!) Vapor is just about the same and flavor is better!

I've only been running it less than 24 hours. But I think I've finally found something from Ikenvape to replace the tempramental Boge LRs. You did it again Isaac! If these have anywhere near the lifespan of what I hear about all your equipment, I'm sold!

And seeing how much juice is in it is so cool! I'll ever burn a carto again!!

One side note though. Don't fill to brim when u first get them. You'll end up blowing out a lot of juice. Just fill it good and keep the juice flowing. I'll report back after a few days.

I'm trying his new DCs also, which, so far are just as awesomeb!

I have tried some of the dual coil cartomizers from another company and I have to say that I definetly enjoy them. At 4.2v they are a bit lacking but at 5.4v seems to be the sweet spot for me.

Although not the BEST preforming atomizer I have ever tried but certainly not bad. Now that Ikenvape has some in the works I will be sure to try it. I think Isaac has the Midas touch... everything from him is just so much better

5card,
I was finally able to see the picture in the beginning of this thread. (My BB don't show them. Gummit issued :-( ) When I filled mine that full, I had trouble with flooding. Did it work fine for you that full?

Scorched,
Same here. I've tried a few of the DCs out there. And do like them a lot. Thought they were going to be my new cartos. But these 1.6s even bypass the 1.25 DCs I got hooked on!!! If these last like everything else Ikenvape, I'm going to be stocking up!!!

I watched as I filled it and let it soak in as I went. I didn't have any problems with flooding but the good thing is they get better after a few days. This one I have has changed my mind about LRs, these ones anyway. They are much better with the drip tip. BTW that picture is Isaacs from the other thread, I just used it.

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.

The dual coil clear is better than any dual coils I've used but I'm just not a dual coil type. This one puts out more vapor than the other ones though. It just isn't no match for my beloved Fusions though. The Fusion has spoiled me to any other carto. If I was to use a dc this would be the one I use. I don't get that burnt taste with these DCs either and I like seeing whats going on inside my cartomizer..

Yep. I did the same. Had no trouble getting it filled. Dang that's pretty isn't it? It just flooded on me the first time. Probably user error. I've been keeping it about half full since and it's working great. And, after reading your message again, I filled it up completely and all is good!! A little gurgling first few hits. But, no juice in the battery.

IT GETS BETTER?!?!? Isaac, you're a genius!!!

Edit: OH! Can you point me to the "other thread" you're talking about? Thanks.

 

[greymattergirl]

Isaac sent me 3 of these megas..they are running at 1.6 and I'm vaping at 4.2 volts. ( Can't take them any higher on the ProVari, but you really don't need to.) I love them! I can't say anything about them that hasn't been said above..I agree whole heartedly with all the comments. Great vapor, excellent taste..love that you can see when they need a top up. They do seem to hit a sweet spot imho after they've been topped up once or twice..and they really do vape better than when first filled. Excellent cartos, Isaac has done it again!

I am new to the scene and asked a bunch of questions and wound up coming to Ikenvape for my stuff. After talking with him for days about his product and what I was looking for in an atty/carto. He made some suggestions. I went with the 510 Mega LR. When I received my bag of goodies, I found a standard clear carto. Let me tell you, this thing is BA. The TH on this thing is amazing! The vapor production is really good and the taste.. oh man the taste is just like the smell of my juice. And the vape is nice and warm, which to me brings even more flavor out! I absolutely love how I can see through the carto and fill it accordingly. Never dry which I am sure will mean longer lasting carto! It is made very well, the clear plastic is very durable and strong, and does not bend or warp when pressed. Easy to fill, took about 20-25 drops and lasts me about a half a day before I need to top it off again. I have been running this bad boy on a 3.7 1000mah ego battery and can vape all day long w/o any problems!

Thanks Isaac, this thing is amazing! I really would like to try out the mega!

Regards
J

Well this dual coil is really starting to rock. He has done it to me again. Everytime I get used to not caring much for a certain carto he has to make one that makes me eat my words. I am testing it at 3.7 volts for the people that use 3.7 volt PVs and it is really starting to rock. I am amazed. I guess they just need broke in.

Both of these clear cartomizers Isaac has came out with have made a believer out of me. I'm now going to see just how long they work.

 

[daniel5383]

man i want these! ive been waiting to try a DC until isaac had some and now he does...i wish i could have beta tested them as well as I have loads of friends that i turned onto vaping and the majority of them use riva's and they drip, so these would be just perfect for what they want! put these on the site isaac!

 

[Timothy Cullen]

hey 5 card man i was wrong. i finally got my DC to fire at 4vs on fresh batts and its kicking my .... turns out i over filled it at first adn when i had that juice vaped away it started to shine. vapor production is on par or a little below gold v2s at 4.5vs. but the throat hit has me acctually vaping less idk if the extra heat is helping deliver my nic better or if its just psychosomatic but it rocks.

I to have noticed the nicotine being delivered much better with this cart. With the flavor being even better than his other carts, I would think it is because of the heat as well.

 

[pizza2me]

I'm finding the same. Both still kicking good vapor. I'm really finding out what my juice really tastes like. I've had one problem though. It was tasting so good, I tried out a couple of my old juices I hadn't touched in a while. The problem, one of them was a clear juice! Kind of defeats the purpose of having a clear carto if you can't see the juice!

I've found that I'm having better luck not totally refilling them. I do tend to flood them. So I just watch (it's so cool!) the juice in the carto and make sure it has a good amount in the bottom and always some seeping slowly from the top. If these work out I'll never burn a carto again!

I put that juice back on the shelf and am happily vaping. Alternating between the SC and DC and loving it!! Also, FYI, I'm using eGo's. Sure wish I had more voltage just to see what you folks are experiencing. But, for those that are limited like me, they work great on eGo types.

Now the only question (for me) is if they last as long as what I've heard about Isaac's other cartos.

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.
