I like the direct drip but refilling these cartridges is so much more convenient! Ive heard a lot of complaints about them not lasting long but way more handy when out and about! The guy at my local vape shop (walk in) gave me a couple of bags of cartridge filler so hopefully i'm good to go for a while! Now to move to the next phase...DIY juices and my wife seems interested also so that helps justify my new expenses :D

Cartomizers are cartridges that have an atomizer built in. They hold a lot more juice than a cartridge so they go way longer between refills. They're considered disposable but can be refilled quite a few times. A 5 pack of carto's costs about the same as an atomizer but those 5 will last about the same amount of time as one atty. They're great for on the go use because they'll go a couple of hours between fills.

THANKS, sounds like something to really consider

Hehe I'm following flagreekguy around..

And I agree with him. The cisco lr 306 and Ikenvapes HV 306 have completely changed my whole vaping game. I never dripped until a few days ago and these atomizers have made me a full time dripper.

*stares at all those cartomizers sitting there collecting dust*

Sorrid I would like to point something out to the 306 loyalists... I made a huge mistake the last 24 hours and up until yesterday evening i didnt remedy it.

Ok, So i've been preaching about how it doesn't leak and there is no liquid that hits your mouth from it. I was fearful cause it was a LR i was going to burn it out if i didnt keep it heavily wet. so after 2-3 toots i'd throw another 3-5 drops in the damn atty. Big no no. It flooded the atty, and when i say it flooded it, if you have the clear drip tip like i do, it was nearly a quarter to the bottom of liquid (like a quarter empty glass of soda..) and I was .....ing up a storm that it kept flooding. Then i realized my mistake and waited until i get the metal taste THEN Threw 2-3 drops on the atty.

Ok, So don't make this mistake or you'll ruin the heavenly experience of the 306 and it's no leaking no liquid on lips experience.
Bottom line, treat it like a standard drip tip regime. Toot until you taste metal and then throw more drops in.


Other then that, there is no way in HELL i'm going back to cartos/cartidges after this experience.

And i'm not trying to kill the KR808's business or even cartridges or carto's business. But, the experience you get from the 306 line is amazing.

Like sorrid, i now have to go grab my HV 306's for my 6v.

DONT WASTE MONEY ON CARTRIDGES! get your first 306 and you will never go back.

and make sure you look at the bottom of the atty and it says Cisco or it's not an authentic (Sorta like joye's atomizers. if it's not legit it doesn't vape the same)

Hey sorrid. I'm curious of how well an essence line of eliquid will taste on a HV 306 at 6v's regulated.... i'm wondering just how much the flavor comes out of a vape experience like that.

If eliquidplanet sold 3.0 batteries and HV 306's i'd be making a big purchase from them today. as it stands, i may actually have to buy high quality eliquid from someone else with all of the above available....Grrr i really wanted to try...Essence...Essence..Essence...

I dunno? I'm not sure which juice you are talking about. Essence line? Enlighten me!!

Lol..yeah they will leak if you get overzealous. I've done it a few times myself. I try to judge when to add 3 drops before it gets too dry(ack!!) sometimes I guess right..sometimes one draw to late lol.

You've never heard of essence? dude.... am i the only newbie here who listens to vaporcast on itunes? lol

I'll have to check it out. Liquidexpress you say?

I haven't ventured too far into liquids yet. I bought my first Ego from Arno at Awesome Vapor. He has juice there But I don't know if it is Dekang stuff or not. All I know his RY4 is superb unlike the china RY4 which is pretty blah(think unsweetened cocoa+coffee) and his USA's Favorite Blend is excellent too. I love them both and haven't strayed to far from those two yet.

I tried the china liquid that Madvapes sells(the USA mix and the RY4) and I had to mix them 50/50 to get something that was somewhat enjoyable. I'm just now finally getting low on that(got 100ml of the stuff) so I'm looking to try something new.

I have a Puresmoker Icon on the way and I ordered a bottle of their Silver leaf Tobacco to try while I was ordering.

Isaac at Ikenvape is going to be carrying juice soon and If he puts as much effort into them as he does his atomizers it's going to be great stuff.

Not sure how I got to rambling about the liquids I've tried but anyway......
