"clearomizer" round up for 808s...

[Charlz]

You can use them all. I have a gutted echo carto I use for a cone and another one that used to be a and ego tank atty. It has a wider hole that fits the thicker plastic and syringe modded ce2s. 3ml syringes work best if you ever crack the sleeve. And you can punch a hole in the rubber plunger tips to make a sturdy grommet seal with the perfect diameter. (DON'T THROW OUT ANYTHING EVER. You will be surprised what you find a use for.)

I'm into tanks now, but they are only as good as the carto inside. I think I have enough parts to frankenstein an 808 ce2 tank but just haven't seen the light yet. It'll dawn on me. And there will be pictures.

Something like this - iTurbo Clearomizer

That's a vision stardust. A standard 808 to 510 adapter fits perfectly under the skirt and lets it sit flush. Works great as it can on an auto batt with an adapter. Except I really didn't care for them. There is an odd taste from the tips and I didn't figure out how to mod it until it had suffered from my various other tinkerings.


Nice link though....lol! That rocks!

I am a week into those stardusts. Broke one attempting to take it apart because i accidentally ripped the wick out adjusting it. The other one is about cracked through. I am not impressed in the least bit...a lot of hype, HUGE disappointment. I expect more than a week out of a $6 clearo.

I stand corrected. That particular turbo is built for a fat bat auto 808! I'm in love. And now that I know how to mod these to not get the funky taste......and rebuild these.......

 

[Cyrus Vap]

Ever tried this one?

 

[Cyrus Vap]

Same thing...

 

[Cyrus Vap]

I'm gonna try and pick some of these tea bags up today. I don't see any need to cut the wick though. At first I may just try it by laying the PTB on top of the wick and see if it works

 

[Charlz]

laying it on top didn't work for me. I only tried it with ce2 wicking though. It was a bad time.

So a few days later...

Love these things. The flavor is unbelievable. The vape is so thick it makes vaping my gen 2s with their ......ed cut off tons of fun

Haven't noticed a difference between v4ls and gen 2s with respect to coil gunking/juice scorching. Somehow these escape the fate that bottom horizontal coils seem to subject you to when you go over 3.7 Volts. So far...

Cleaning is easy and fast. Little dentals tools are great for scraping crud off the coils, as is dry burning.

Awesome for dripping directly as well (thank you Charlz for that)

Two thumbs up so far!

PS: Snapped one of my wicks off, and sowed the pieces back together. Vapes like a monster! FOund the PTB mod, gonna try it the second I get to the supermarket

OMG shut up before I immediately buy a pack of these.

Man you're making me want them. It's like listening to someone describe a steak at lunch time. Want want want.
Also, I now want a founders beer. I might just be an easily influenced individual.

But seriously, thanks for all the info. I'll definitely try these out after I go through some of my giant stock pile of traditional cartos.

Same issue here

Thankfully (or regretfully, depend on your point of view, heh) - those things are out of stock everywhere. Or are they?

I called The Vapor Girl to see if the ITurbo Clearomizer will fit my auto Echo. She didn't know but will be getting them in stock in the next day or two and will let me know. Next week she will be getting in standard size clear 808 cartos that come in different colors (which sounds like fun to me) but I forgot to ask the manufacturer.

She also makes the juices herself. I ordered some cartos and 5 different flavored juices. She is very friendly and answered a ton of my questions.

Cheers to Victoria and best wishes for a successful business!

I didn't see a button on the iTurbo 1300 starter kit. I'm gonna have to ask her about it. If it's not an echo battery, there's another fat bat 808 auto to get excited about.(or the button is hidden) I don't want to jump to conclusions.

If you look at the battery offered in the kit, it has the same post and thread as an echo, so I can't imagine it not fitting.

 

[Cool_Breeze]

Is the Echo an 808/901 affair and the Echo E a 510/Ego device?

 

[Charlz]

Is the Echo an 808/901 affair and the Echo E a 510/Ego device?

Yes. I've also done some digging and it appears the 808 battery offered on The Vapor Girl's site is not an echo. Couldn't find any specs and I'm not going to reveal anymore yet out of respect to her.

 

[Cyrus Vap]

Did you ask her what the cut off switch was ?

 

[Mookie]

Is the Echo an 808/901 affair and the Echo E a 510/Ego device?

I don't know anything about the ego but the Echo is an 808 (auto) and the Echo E (manual) is 510.

 

[Mookie]

@Charlz

The description says it fits 808 Ego batteries but I think I've read that not all Ego/Echo parts are interchangeable?

 

[Mookie]

Me again - should have checked my e-mail first. The ITurbo Clearomizer fits the Echo batt and The Vapor Girl now has them in stock. I'm going to add them to my order right away. Are these the kind that needed some mod to work properly or or they good out of the box?

 

[Charlz]

The only problem I found is the tip can make the vapor taste funny. At $9 a piece, I'd be careful about trying to remove the shell- unless you want to take one for the team. If you find it tastes funny, you can put some sort of gasket seal around the post at the top to keep the juice from leaking and I found a soft 801 tip can be jammed into the top.

An inverted carto tip also worked as a seal but the hole was thinner and muted the flavor. You and I will be comparing notes on these soon. Cheers!

 

[Mookie]

@charlz, no I don't want to mess with them at all. I am the least technical person you will ever know. I just looked at my first three echo cart's and they died. Luckily the fourth is still going strong. I just added some ITurbo clearomizers to my order at The Vapor Girl and noticed someone had already bought some - wonder who that could be?????

That ITurbo 1300 looks so pretty that even I might move up from my 650. I went with the smaller echo because I thought the bigger batteries would look too masculine for me but that ITurbo sure is looking pretty sweet to me! Can't wait to hear some reviews about it.
