the production date on the box is for thee juice and has nothing to do when the e2 was made
the r4 comes in 2 versions, some with afl(filler and sme without) but if your cup isnt covered and closed like that pic then its not a r4.

the r4 might come without the afl but then it should have them in the package so you can use it if you wish.

i dont know where you got yours but ill know what eliquid.cn sent tomorow since MY R4's are here


The inner cap is like the one in your pic and the airstem to the cup is also wrapped. Got it from e-liquid.cn :):vapor:

If anyone has any higher ohm E2's on order I'd like to know if they actually meter out to 3-3.2 ohms. Even the "3.7v" 808D cartos I received maxed out at 2.7 ohms.

And why don't they offer standard 510's in the 3-3.2 range?

Wish they offer higher ohms ones for the std 510's too. The XL I got have a difference of only 0.1 ohm, the 2.4 to 2.6 measure at 2.6 and the 2.6 to 2.8 at 2.7....lol I did not order any HV type.

Yet to open the std 510's and KR's

well then you should have the r4, some will have afl and some wont. they whrent sure if it should be included in the e2 or leave it up to the user.

i suggested to leave it outside in the box so people can use it themselves. ill know shortly what they sent then its off to testing and making video, tomorow will be a busy day for sure.

the ones that are 2.9 and above ill use on any mod but anyting lower then that will go on the variable and ill just dial the right voltage for those.

I'm very interested to know if the dimensions of the ceramic cup have changed in any way. I am wanting to revise my prototype filler tip, but haven't done it yet because of possible changes in later E2 revisions.

No. Cup is still the same. R3 and R4 inner caps interchangeable on my cartos :)

Bad: I want to know what they sent you..hahaha..wondering if they sent different types to US users..lol

actually that isnt 100% true, there is 2 different ceramic cups, one is bigger then the other and this was in the r3 becuase there was 2 different molds used, the r4 has only one type of ceramic cup.

so whatever the r4 has thats what it will be .

william then yeah you got them, how are you liking them. if there is any leaking then its form the slits and you should have the afl in the package to add it yourself, i would just cut a tiny tiny peace just to cover the slits. they tried to make a hole instead of slits and that didnt solve any issue, only the afl or ptb stops it but there is no leaking from under the cup or wire holes.


they where trying another idea but it was causing the ceramic to crack , so they left it as it is cause we sure dont want ceramic chunks floating around.
There is alsso the option of the V slit, so all the wick bunches up to the bottom point and leaves no gap for juice, issue with that is that it might actually pinch the wick to much at the bottom of the V.

so the afl or a tiny peace of ptb can stop that leak if it occurs I guess.

ok but is that good or bad and did you check the ohms.

if they worked for oyu before and its the same well thats the point
do they have primer, they shouldnt have any primer, the connectors should be dent free and the cups should be sealed, if that was done then the r4 is fine. if its the right ohm it should wick better as well.

No primer but i think they put something onto the inner cap for it to fit in easier. Cups are sealed. Ohms at 2.6 for the 2.4 - 2.6 and 2.7 for the 2.6 - 2.8 ones. The 2.6 ohms still doesnt wick fast enough on the ego/riva but works fine on std 510 batts. I do find the 2.6 ones works pretty good on 2.8v :):)

So the filler ring is easier to get in/out? This would be a huge bonus. Does the sealed cup make it more stable?

No, IMO I think the R4 filler ring is more troublesome to fit back in as we have to align the cutoff groove to the cup's slit. The sealed cup does stop the cup from moving on the airstem but no, it doesn't make the whole stem more stable, imo.

Ahh, snap. Good to hear the cup is more stable though.

And why don't they offer standard 510's in the 3-3.2 range?

I asked Linda that and she advised "You also can make the "OHM"word on the comments!" Of course I tried that, when I hit submit, 2 orders were created, 1 with the notes, 1 without and of course they are going by the order that the notes did not come through on....

anyone besides fishjuice who was expecting returns it aint happening, they only sent me his returns, they sent samples and my vgo orders but they didnt even send my returns, so i have a very very limited amount to sample for br, nav vjhon and zoid, no one else, turbo i have the vgo 1300 mah for you and 1 pack of the r4.

i wish i would of been told so i dont have to make another order to get more r4 since getting replacemnts isnt happening like it should and im pretty ...... right now, sending me free samples is great but since im giving them out it owuld of been nice to send out my replacements as well, at least the ohms where right but im not being treated right and they are on the last straw.


ill test the r4 in alittle while and tell ya what i think.

my 510 xl e2are at 3.0 ohm i even had a few 808 at 3.1 and one at 3.2

no and im ...... about thaT, we shouldnt have to pull teeth, i ddint even need the 200 or so that i got that are dented , a few packs would have been nice., but he knew well indeed im going to give out the sample he sent me which leaves me with nothing, and im done pulling teeth, so now i got to make another order, he could have told me hes not sending me any replacements so to make a order.

at least they sent walters replacement and the rest of the order was right.

i also got some 510 duds, that arent the full r4 and still have silicone on the wire to cup area so those samples are duds, so basicly i have less samples then i thought since only 4 packs are actual r4 and are 808 only . I have a few choice words but im off to take break before i get ....... so i guess they are usuable but not the point.
plus there is no afl at all so i cant test that no sample of it or nothing.

I haven't said much about it yet, but I have been testing two E2's with polyfil for some time now. The most successful test so far is with a piece measuring about 7/8" L X 3/8" W. The length fits all the way around the cup just enough for the ends to meet. No lap. The thickness fits nicely in the space between the cup and outer tube.

A filler ring or middle ring is not needed with this small strip of filler in place. The cartridge can be stood on its mouthpiece end with no leaks. It other words, it is no different than an old timey cartomizer in that respect. For filling, the needle of a syringe will easily slide down the wall of the tube along side the polyfil without disturbing its placement.

This strip stays wet as long as the E2 is vaped in the horizontal position, or thereabouts. As long as it stays wet, the original wick can make use of it when vaped in any position. If it is always used with the battery pointed down and stored that way between vapes, then the polyfil can run dry if it does not have enough time to recover.

The testing of these two E2's does not mean that I will continue using mine that way. This is just another test to learn more about these things. My opinion at this time is that this method works fairly well. One disadvantage is that this strip needs to be removed for a dry burn. Otherwise, there is too much extra stuff there that has to be dried out.

Hay badkolo, If you want you can send half of my replacement order and send me the rest later. If would help you out.
And thanks again for the xls you sent me.
