Sweet write up. :D

I tried dripping for the first time with a complimentary kit a supplier sent me-- I could not wrap my head around the whole concept. Since I've dealt with the simplicity of cartomizers for so long, dripping every few minutes was something I could not do. I'll admit, when it was working it was quite nice, but it was a bit too much work for me--and I already work too much!

Great post, very well done. The only thing missing is the cost comparison if you were to include the boiling option to refresh the carts to new condition, starting over and refilling again four or five times, boil, reuse etc. There is quite a bit of evidence that a majority of carts (not all mind you) can be cycled numerous times extending their life significantly beyond your refill and discard estimates.

Final thought, it is only a matter of hours before the pictures of burned filler show up on your thread. There are some posters bound and determined to convince everyone that cartos burn and we are all inhaling horrible burned plastic. :)

Thanks again for your excellent post, it's great to see an objective comparison.

Realistically tho, I think it would be hard to advance a sound argument that aspects like this will or should be seen by everyone who's capable of rational thought as benign... (Especially given new complications like this.)

Still a carto user myself. Just think that as with many things, we should try to be objective and more careful of our tone when it comes to differing opinions/takes on things, especially when the foundation of that take is understandable and not in fact irrational.

I used a 901 for months before coming to V4L. The juice usage was outragous! I had to refill every few vapes and as the flavor was good..I kept at it. I was getting tired of replacing batteries every month and atomizers every other month! I finally tried manual 901's to stop gumming up the auto batts. The draw was hard with those.
The other issue was the short batt life..2 hours if I was vaping lite and an hour and a half normally.
I finally was persuaded to try a VK and haven't looked back.
Once in a while I try a 901 for fun..I run back to my VK's pretty quick!
