I've tried various Cartomizers for my Ego and the best I've seen so far seem to be the ones sold at smoke-light.com . Anyone have a preferred Cartomizer to recommend?
Thanks!

Boge Low Resistance Carto's, or these (don't know who makes them) Black - 1.5 Ohm Dual Coil Cartomizers
As far as I'm concerned, dual-coils are the new standard in carto's.
Unfortunately, I'm not positive that you can use either of these on an eGo, but they are outstanding on a 3.7v mod. Given their low resistance, the eGo may not like them - I think it's something about the eGo having a mosfet controller? Someone more knowledgeable about them will speak this I'm sure.

So far, I've used CE2s, G4s and Boge 510, Standard and Low Resistance.
The CE2s and G4s leak, I am careful as I can be, I've watched a dozen videos with instructions and tips, and still have leak issues or flooding of the draw tube. The G4s are super easy to fill, but after a while you will get a drop of juice in the tube and it makes vaping unpleasant.
The Boge 510s are sold on tons of sites, especially in the US and are just awesome. They can take up to 25 drops when new and 10-20 for refills. I never burn them, they don't leak and they produce a ton of vapor. I find that I lose a bit of taste, especially with diluted juices but I don't mind when the convenience is spot on. The LR ones give an awesome throat hit and bring the taste back up to snuff.
I just cleaned out my first batch today that I have been using for a couple weeks. I watched pbusardo's awesome tutorial about an hour ago and it works like a charm, I can smell the mint flavour coming out of one of them and on the third cycle most of the scent is gone. Here is a link to it:

I would definitely give these a shot, and since you've got an eGo, you can go for the LR ones!
Best of luck, keep on vaping
P.S. EDIT: If you don't get those first 20-25 drops in there and make sure the polyfill is nice and moist, you can get that burnt taste, and if it gets to the filler you're probably going to have it in there for good. You can replace it (there are lots of videos explaining the methods), but its best to avoid doing it.

I'm slowly learning how to properly use the Boge LR cartos. The first couple of cartos were burnt, and I've been sampling with different juices to get some flavor to erupt in my tastebuds. But I found a good mix today, and have been vaping them like crazy. Guess there is some truth when they say you have to search around to find a good fit.
I've only tried 4 so far. Boge reg and 1.5 LR, Dual coils and then generic 510.
Boge regular: good, no issues.
Boge LR: Battery loss about 25% usage time. Hot cone.
Dual coils(my fav): sucks juice dry in no time. Yummy everything. Juice is flavorful and vapor increases.
Regular generic: lower than Boge. Average quality. Use for trying a new or strong flavor you may want to throw away. If you like what you tried, go to the other cartos and vape away. Trick: if you like a flavor and dont have much of it, you can use a small guage syringe and needle and suck juice back up to be put in new carto. Does not effect taste.

Boge - I use the standard resistance (3.0-ish) Boges because I move my cartos between slim and large batteries and you are not supposed to use low resistance cartos or atomizers on slim batteries. On my Riva (750mah battery) I could use the hotter 2.0 or 2.5 LR ones which are very popular on the fat battery models and mods. The LR ones also use battery charge faster. I use thin clear eliquids - no more than 20% VG and and clear becuase clear liquids usually don't leave flavor sediment which can clog a carto.
I hate SLB cartos - bought 5 and I will be throwing out 4 of them. Their motto should be Works Well Once

Honestly I really like the CE2's. I've had a couple of leaking problems, but that was really my fault. If you are going to be mostly at a desk like I am, then the CE2's are fine, but if you are on the move a lot I wouldn't recommend them. They have their issues, but the issues are easily manageable.

I like the boge LR and dual coil cartos but I've gotten great cartos from Ikenvape.
SLB - Sailebo. They're carried at a variety of places. Have a look over here:

I have a kgo and I use the Boge LR mega cartos and the 1.7ohm dcc's... I got some from Ikenvape and they were horrible!! 3 of the 5 leaked the first time I filled them and the other two leaked when I topped them off... there's far better out there.
