HoPeFuLLL you keep on forgetting that prices in the UK are a bit higher than those from China. If nothing else that price includes 17.5% VAT.

£7 sterling for a 5 pack is quite cheap in our terms.

It is very, very common to find goods that are sold at a 1:1, dollar to pound price in the UK. This applies to all types of consumer goods.

What resistance are they? What makes them different to say these at half the cost:

5pc Matte Black Disposable Capsules for KR808D-1 [KR808D-1] - $4.00 : Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail

Most seem very happy with these for HV vaping.

While most may seem happy buying something cheaper these cloud9vaping cartomizers have been fine tuned by Lisa and myself over the last 6 months. The resistance is not an issue and should not be published as we all know that china can't send the same thing twice (ask imeo). If she were to publish the resistances surely the next batch would be different. So hence the reason Lisa choose not to publish the exact resistances. If you would like to compare cloud9vaping cartomizers to most of the others out there check out this thread....

Sounds nice and I agree it's hard to hold onto a good atty/carto. But 6 months ago or whatever is very different to today's new GGTS-AVS. Most are reporting great results with new off the shelve cartos from HC and HG. Nothing special is required.

IMHO if a Carto is special it needs it's resistance reported and what voltage it is aimed at (even which batteries). Every supplier has the same stock available.

I'm sure that's true, but apparently these are a bit different in a way some people prefer.

It's my understanding that these are special order cartomisers so no they're not the same as other suppliers stocks, the link Vapn provided shows some of the physical differences too.
If you follow your logic then you will start selling the cheapest PV's on the market and not the GG's as surely all PV's are just battery holders that you can connect an atomiser to!

If you want to know their resistance then surely the easiest way to find out would be to buy some and meter them wouldn't it?

Tyke, yes they do look different. But if they are promoted in this thread then I would expect a resonable comparison by unbiased people. Different does not mean better. This is particularly true as the AVS has moved a long way from the AFS in the carto development cycle.

Do you or Lisa have one of the new models to test them in?

I sure do! I was the first to test them in the new model along with beta testers that got them free to test, no they did not have to pay to test.

I don't as I can't bring myself to buy one with the engraving and I preferred the brass end caps, plus I don't use 808 cartomisers (like I said earlier) so I've no reason to buy any from Lisa.
I have no idea if Lisa has one of the new generation of GGTS's, you would have to ask her.

Incidentally the only connection I have with Lisa is I've occasionally bought vaping supplies from her and we met at the Vapefest in York this May.
 
I got so tired of fiddling around with 901s. You either get flooding, dry taste or leaking. Cartomizers solve all issues for me. The problem months ago when I started using them was no options for varying resistances. Lisa solved that issue for me and many others.

With the older model possibly true, me even with the AVS I was happy. This model, 901 damn fine although I have some friends using normal Cartos and happy.

If Lisa wants to send me a couple of cartos to give to my friends to review that would be nice, till then normal cartos are fine IMHO.
