Not really.
The horizontal-coil cartomizers have been around for a long time, some are good, some are bad--SLB 510 cartos, most 4081 cartos, some Kanger kr808 cartos, all eGo and genuine Joye cartos, and the Bloog and its clones all have a horizontal coil. The design itself doesn't make them any better or worse than the other--vertical--kind. As a matter of fact, the most consistent and reliable cartomizer I've ever tried is a good old Bogetech 510 with a vertical coil.

This is true. But you can't take one apart and dry burn it like an atty, then clean the filler and reuse. Yes, I know they are disposable.

Sure you can, if you're motivated.

But I agree with you that they are disposable and I don't clean them.

My, self-imposed, limit is 5-7 ml of eliquid; after that, the draw stiffens and the taste changes. YMMV.
That's why I never wanted cartomizers, even without trying them. seems like a waste. 510 atomizers lasted at least a month or more.
Speaking of cartomizers, I have taken one of my non-functioning gocarts, pulled out the filler, replaced it with blue fluval filler (with the center straw still intact) and it's vaping like a new cartomizer again.
It only holds about 30 drops.....but it is wicking.

Are you talking about Go-cartos? I only set aside one to clean in three months and I vape 4-5 mils a day. I rotated between four cartos during that time. I think it matters a lot about what juice you use more than anything. I vape mostly menthol 80-20 and never have to have to clean mine. I would be disappointed if I got less than 50 ml before needing cleaning.

No, I'm talking about the traditional, 1 ml cartomizers. I do not like the XL, mega, jumbo cartomizers of any kind because I like my cartos fresh and my ejuice fresh. No matter how good a carto is, the crud builds up on the atomizer coil, the polyfill becomes dirty, and the draw tightens. I also like to change flavors and I don't like the idea of 3 ml of juice being constantly heated and circulated through a giant wad of polyfill full of unvaporized ejuice particles like sweeteners, artificial colorings, artificial flavorings etc.
When I want capacity, I prefer the eGo-T atties.
Just my experience, YMMV.

Nope, it is an American Goldfinch also known as a Wild Canary. He hangs out in my backyard. We also have dozens of humming birds...
We just discoverd another humming bird nest with two eggs in it. The second one this spring. We can't wait for the babies to hatch.Here's a pair that hatched earlier this spring...

ok so I'm on my second set of pre-filled go carts.
This first one has a full days use, was topped off and has a burnt taste already.
If i top it off, the liquid just goes right through it.
It's acting like it's full and yet it's vaping like it's empty. The previous pre-filled set lasted 2-3 days and could be successfully filled once or twice and used with good vapor before having a problem.
I should get my first set of empty gocarts any day now.
If they do the same, I'm pulling out of GoGo nation.
That would be a bummer, because the GoGo works so well when it does work.
I will also note, I get mis-fires on a regular basis (button pressed and lit but atty not firing)
I understand I can turn the button counter-clockwise and or recharge, but it shouldn't
really be doing this at all.

Personally, 1 fill and 4 top offs then I replace the cartos or clean it. I am not good at cleaning, so.. Based on this, I would go through 1 go-Cart a week but I haven't found my favorite daily vape, so I am alternating and have 4 cartos full of juice at a time, so I am currently going through 4 a week
.
I respect your opinion but my own view is that I get at least 2 weeks with a gogo carto - that's if I don't clean it. If I use a very heavy sugar juice (I don't as a rule), it will last less. Worst case - when I was spending 5 bucks a day for smokes, 3 bucks a week for a great vape is not bad for me. Most other cartos will not last as long as the gogo ones. Given that most of my cartos last at least 2 weeks, that's 1.50 a week for me - not bad! I have one carto that I vape unflavored in - has lasted me close to two months without cleaning.
I do think there was a batch of less then optimum quality gogo carts that got into the mix but time will tell.
I am probably the exception. I flood the cartos constantly, let the juice flow out the bottom. I probably shouldn't have posted. I gross myself out thinking of how long the juice has been in the cartos. Part of me thinks letting juice sit in a cartos for a week is more on the gross side. especially if it's constantly saturated. Plus I need to see an optometrist , I keep misreading my labels and top off the cartos with the wrong flavors. By the end of the week I have confused myself so much, all 4 cartos taste the same. Plus I top off my cartos regardless of flavor every other day with some DIY RY4.
Day 3 now and started with an empty gocart I filled myself.
It is topped off and vaping like there is no liquid in it.
3 Days is how long these cartomizers last me. I can't see how anyone could possibly get more than that out of them, anything is possible. But I'm not and that won't work for my vaping habit.
