ok guys. Newbie here wanting your thoughts on where to buy and who you think in best for blank cartomizers to fit my V2 Brand E-cig I jut got. I am going to start the Refilling my own process.
should I just buy blanks from V2 ? Are there others that last longer ? Should I buy a menthol flavor and reuse the menthol flavor Cartos I got with my kit ? I want to try some different Coffee and Coloa juices and dont want to add to the V2 menthol with those , so let me know your thoughts.
thanks in advance for your imput.

Oh , and 1 company I talked to today did NOT recommend me buying their carts even though I was told on another thread that the V2 batteries being an 808 would work with others. The company could not gaurantee they would "Fire".

Yes, you absolutely can use other cartos... I have a V2 also and while I did clean out their cartos and reuse them, I also bought a bunch of blanks from Smokeless Image. Really, any 808 carto will work. I also bought an Elite 808 from CigEasy,, all cartos are interchangeable.. V2, of course, wants you to buy theirs, and their flavors are pretty good. I wouldn't mix menthols with anything else though,, unless you want that minty flavor with whatever else you're putting in there. I recommend Smokeless Image's cartos.. I've been able to refill them 4 or 5 times before tossing them. Price is good too... good luck, and let me know how you make out with them!

Thanks for the info. Seems all the blanks run about $8-$10 for a 5 pack plus shipping ? ( At least for the 808 types )
and V2 I see offers a big discount when ordering MORE Prefilled that makes them cost less than the blanks. Maybe I should try their coffee and cola prefilled , then just try differnent coffee and cola and menthol E-liquids to top them off? Should be able to stretch the $$ that way ?
what do you guys think ?

I like V2's cola flavor, as long as you use them right up. I vaped one yesterday that I've had sitting around (condoms on!) for a couple months and there wasn't much flavor left. There's cheaper stuff out there, just a matter of finding it. I've had great luck with the Smokeless Image blank carto's... but my next purchase will be mega-cartos from IKV. They came highly recommended from someone here and they hold a lot more liquid, so like getting two cartos for the price of one. You can definitely stretch your dollars buy buying their prefilled and topping them off.. I've done that a lot, V2's cartos are of really good quality and I've managed to get 7-8 refills on some of them before I had to toss them. I guess it's a matter of preference,, but I have found that I've spent way more trying to find the perfect vape than I ever would have spent on analogs. I don't mind, though. I'm loving this new hobby and pretty sure I'll save money in the end,,, as soon as I find the perfect set-up. I think I'll always be trying new juices though.. there's just too many to try!! OH YEAH,,, and almost every vendor offers a discount for ordering in bulk.

I just went ahead and ordered a 40 pack ( 8 different 5 packs ) from v2 today. with discount and including shipping it came out to $62.15 which is about $1.55 Each Carto Dlvd ! Cant even get blanks for that. I got Coffee , Chocolate , Cola , Vanilla and peppermint in different strengths , so next I will try some Ejuice from Blue Mist ( Nice Sampler for $10 ) and top those flavors off to keep them wet.

Good for you! And I see V2 is running a sale right now too,, their carto's really do last a good long time, I have several that I've refilled many, many times. Besides, as long as you order at least every 90 days, your life-time warranty on equipment remains in effect. which reminds me,, I better order something! Happy vaping!

I hope they get here fast. I fell off the wagon this morning and bought a pack.

I have used the blank catros from V2 and have refilled some of them over a hundred times so far with no
failures. I have seen some slightly cheaper cartos, but I'm sticking with what has worked so well for me.

That sounds great! Too bad V2 lies about WHEN the ship.
Both orders did NOT ship on the day they said.
