Confuzzled

[LemurCat]

So, I'm relatively new to this whole vaping deal. My first kit was an RN4081, which as I'm pretty sure all of us know has the refillable cartridges.

Anyway, I recently ordered a Kim828 kit with the PCC under the brand name Aquavapor Sidekick II. I didn't realize (in my naivete) that the carts are completely freakin' different than my RN4081 in that there's no fiberfill cart. It seems there's a sort of sack or block of VG that is pierced or melted by the atomizer. I'm guessing this is how it works, as my technical experience with this sort could fill a fastfood take out menu.

Anyway, my question to you kind folks is ... does anyone know if there is a way to refill these carts? Or am I forever sentenced to be buying replacement carts? Any help would be much appreciated.

If it is an aquavapor, then it is a dse 901, i believe, which are def refillable...

No, it's not the dse901. It's a Kim or Kimree 828.

Anyone? Anyone? Buehler?

I found the manufacturers web site at Products
It doesent seem to have a lot of info.
When I googled the model all I came up with were a lot of links to info on manufacturers in China I'll keep trying.
But if there is no poly fill I'd think you couldn't refill them.
Is this the one they are selling as the Deuce 2?
Is there a way to post a pick of the carts? That would probably help identify it.

It's the Deuce II Sidekick. (They're pretty fond of the word Deuce over there, so you can pretty much ignore the term.)

I've more or less resigned myself to being the sacrificial vaper on this one. If it's buying carts in bulk, so be it. It's a nice little unit (not without it's problems -- it's especially noisey when drawing on it, but that seems to be easily fixable by covering up a couple of holes) and I got it on the cheap so oh well.

I noticed that as well but I said what the heck and tried it. When I removed that plastic like sack off of the top there was fiberfill under it just like a regular cart. I refilled one and it worked pretty good.

Now, my turn. What is up with the PCC? When I screw a cig in the thing the tip stays lit for at least 20 mins or so. Also the light on my PCC never goes out when charging it.

The crazy thing is everything seems to working.

Bless you, Robin. Tis the answer to my query! Thanks ever so much!

Yeah, I have the same thing going on. I recall that the light went to green on the PCC when it was charged up. And yes, by battery stayed lit for a good 20 mins as well.

So far so good.

I got mine in Tuesday, this is a very nice e-cig! The light on the battery is supposed to stay on while charging, when it goes out the battery is fully charged! The PCC light on the bottom, stays lite till the PCC is charged, I don't think you can charge the PCC with battery screwed into the charger, you can unscrew it and keep it in the charger! There is a link to a video on the Aquavapocig .com SideKicK web page! The carts have a plastic covering on them, when you put one on, give it a couple turns then pull it off and take off any lose plastic on the atty, and the rest of the plastic on the inner cart to make it easy to refill, which is explained a little in the vid! Sorry about it being a little blury, my first vid review
below is a direct link to the vid! One more thing, as with most e-cigs it's best to blow out the primer fluid from the atty first, if not it can be kinda nasty, hope you enjoy yours as much as I am mine!

put a small piece of clear tape over couple of holes works good on my 8mm e8 mini

 

[kristin]

It's the Deuce II Sidekick.

Sorry, I wish I had something to help, but I was just getting a chuckle over the name:

"deuce" = "two"
"II" = "two"
"Sidekick" = "two" (like "second banana" or "number two")

So, it's named "Two Two Two?"

Sorry....hope someone has more info to help!!

I just happen to come across the KIMREE 828 online tonight. I use a Joye 510 manual. Kinda was thinking about trying one of these tutu pv out. How does it compare to a 510?
