sorry the pics are kinda blurry. I love the GLV it does have a harder pull to it though. I know if I 1/4 turn it it should work better but when I do that it doesn't connect anyone have any good ideas?

thats a nice looking GLV you have there... i really love that color... just keep urz away from mine and we wont get them mixed up... lol...

madvapes. They're on sale right now for $1.89 each. Link: Black 801 Cartomizer
I just ordered some from Nhaler the other day($9 for 5),I hope to get them in the mail today! I love the 801 attys....I just hope these will handle 5 and 6v as well!

:)Wiz!

Edit: Mist....From the looks of the photos on the madvapes site these 801 carto's look just like an 801 atty. Is it just the pic?...or do these look like the one your friend gave you? They don't show a pic from the inside of the carto!

to get the Ego carto to work get the joye ac charger adapter from cignot. It works really well and thats the only adapter you need. Its about an inch long. I think its like 4.00.
Yes sir.....These work great with the Ego cartos....a bit strange looking mind you..but effective! here's the linky! eGo charger adapter

:)Wiz!

Yeah Wiz, that's what they look like. Gotta keep 'em pretty wet at 6V. I haven't got my GLV2 yet so I don't have a 5V device to try them on. I bet they work good though. Mark @ M-vapes says they're about 2.5 Ohms.

I am surprised by the Ohms rating as I am not aware of any other 801 series at 2.5 ohms. I have seen or used the 801 LRs, regular and 801 HVs, BE112s in regular and LR and the 302s ad none of these meter at 2.5 ohms (at least none that I have metered).

At 6V, that would be pretty hot. I know that some people do use regular 2.5 ohms attys on 6V but if you go to the generalized formula: V x V/Ohms=Watts:
6V x 6V/2.5=14.4 watts That is waaaaaay hot for my taste. I think it kills flavor and burns VG. On 5V:
5V x 5V/2.5=10 watts to me this is doable but at the very upper edge of my comfort zone for heat (I have many all VG juices and VG burns at lower temps).

I am also a fan of the 801 series (but lean more to the 302 first and then the BE112 before the actual 801). These run in the 3.3 ohms range:
6V x 6V/3.3=10.9 watts (again, my upper limit)
5V x 5V/3.3=7.57 watts (8 Watts is my sweet spot).

Some of the 302s are more like 3.2 and that nudges it closer. On my 5V devices, I tend to reach for the 3.3 ohm attys.

I'll try some of these 801 cartos in my next madvapes order - mostly because I am curious.

Just my :2c:

Thanks for posting about these Mist.

Nebula, I haven't checked these myself so I don't know the exact resistance. I was going by what Mark wrote on the order page. I HAVE burnt juice with freshly charged RCR123s on this thing. It runs fine when the voltage drops off a bit though. I think it might be good at 5V.
Just a side note: I was using this 801 carto on a Riva batt with a 510/801 adapter this morning and the batt had a freakin' melt down! Got hot as hell and smelled like an electical fire. Nice, $20.00 battery, gone. Don't know if it was a crappy batt, bad adapter or what. I put the adapter and carto on one of my home made mods with an 18650 in it and it still works fine. Maybe that battery was going to go anyway.

Mist, Sorry to hear about your Riva loss. I'd throw a meter on those cartos.

As I said, I am curious but not much of a carto fan. I have several boxes of 510 and 808 cartos that I ordered early on in my vaping and never reach for them. I also have a box of the ego cartos. Tried one and it is convenient (holds lots of juice) but haven't used the others because I have Journeyman feeder mods that I use on the go and mostly drip at home (easier to alternate juices :p ).

I have not tried this yet but have read of others cutting off the "skirt" on the ego cartos so they can be used on mods sans adapters. Looks like it might be a tight fit to the GLV button. If anyone uses the ego cartos, when you kill one, perhaps try cutting off the skirt and see if it will fit. But, on the same note, those ego cartos have a lot of plastic and the GLV hits harder than my other 5V devices. I might be concerned about melting the plastic of the ego carto while using on GLV2 at 5 or 6V. At 3.7, I bet it would be awesome.

I got this to day to make sure everything fits right on the inside. There is no button hole, or atomizer connection but its coming along for sure. That knob thing on the back will not be on the final product.

That's gonna be awesome Jay!
I can't see from the pics how it opens up though. What size bottle is in it? I'm anxious to see this one!
