You were right Crash, I wasn't disappointed.
I got my KR808 yesterday from Eastmall so here's my take on it and a question or two.
I ordered 8mg carts with RY4 and US Blend/Mbro .

There was minimal packaging which I was pleased with. Everything came in bubble wrap, no fancy magnetic seal box which only end up filling up my recycle bin anyway.

Quick summary for those not bored enough to read lots of text :

Battery life : 2.5 hours chain-vaping.
Vapour production : Light
Flavour: Epic
Throat hit : Very Strong
Draw: Very light
Build : Excellent
PCC: Great except for the short USB cable(is it supposed to be retractable?)

The first thing any regular vaper will notice is the throat hit, it's very very strong, a little too much for me at first, caused me to cough for the first hour or so but it's not really unpleasant. It's not down to the juice either, I refilled later with my regular 11mg Hilton and the throat hit was just as apparent.
Flavour is immense, best flavour I've had, those cartomizers really bring out everything and I could taste subtleties in Hilton that hadn't been apparent with a 901.
I was chain vaping these much of yesterday so I could get a feel for battery life and taste and check for burning of the carts as well as getting used to refilling.
I refilled at the same time as the battery died which was 2.5hours of continual vaping and that was solid right through to maybe the last 10 minutes or so where the taste dies off. I imagine normal usage I'd be getting 3-4 hours use per charge, when considering you get a PCC, battery life should never be a problem. There was no burning or scorching of the material but the cartomizer does get surprisingly hot so I could imagine how this would occur using a manual battery, passthough or mod. The 7(?) second cut off is probably much more important in these devices although there's no wait after the cut-off.
Overall I'm very happy with it and it will be perfect for when I'm vaping in public, the reason why I bought it :).


p.s. Crash, did you time how long one of battery charges from the PCC take?

I'm glad you're enjoying your new toy, and no didn't time it takes a while, but I did manage to get 3 full charges out of it, and i'm more then happy with that. And the cable is just small bit annoying but no biggie, i've got loads of usb cable extensions here. You should have seen the throat hit i was getting with 18mg carts, it was out of this world :thumbs: and you're right about the flavors, the dpv9 seems to bring out the best in flavors.

Time to charge with the PCC plugged in was 2hours 20 but I suppose that depends on how charged up the battery is. Maybe it charges PCC battery first fully then the PCC battery charges the 808's battery as normal.

Well I've got a passthrough coming for it so i'll do an update when I get it. :)

Most of my questions have already been answered in either the posts or your videos. BTW, I liked the vids Crash. The one thing I was wondering. Does the DPV9 cartomizers fit on the 901 batterys. I already have the 901 and the PCC. I like the cartomizer idea, but hate to buy a whole new setup if DPV9 cartomizers will fit my 901 batterys.

Thanks.

I don't think so, but I'll go home and try it

Holy crap, dude. Before a review take some speed or at least chug some caffeine. I made it about 20 seconds in. Sorry, but that was mind numbing. Also, the camera could use adjusting. It looks like you're a kid at a bar.

If you don't like it, then don't watch it, plain and simple.

Thanks for the reply. Guess I'll be getting some cartomizer with my next order.

BTW, while I agree it was not the most enthusiastic review I've ever seen, the dude did make the extra effort to answer a question that evening as he promised he'd do, and he obviously did it tired as hell. Better than most of you would bother to do. Was it really necessary to throw insults? Me thinks not.

Your always true to the moment no pretense honest 'everyman' opinion is much more valued than how you are lit or what type of disguise the others may use to hide the everyman we all are.
Thanx ...again

Thinking I will watch the NEXT one also

510- Doesn't work
and yes i realize the video wasn't very enthuastic but after working a 12 hour night shift i'm usually wrecked, but i said i'd get back to you with an answer so i did.
I had no complaints. I appreciated the info. Trust me. I've been the been the picture of dead more than once. Going through chemo, I'm that way most of the time these days.
