It would have been great for a tinker like you. lol It was just a little too much for an old codger and I never got a better vape with it than I do with the Go-Go without all the fuss and recharging batteries all the time plus fiddling with the voltage. I'm a much happier camper with the Go-Go.

Yes, You got me, I won't lie, even though I am no where near electrically inclined, I would have probably dissected it and tried to turbo charge it in some way

I would like to take this time to thank everyone who has recently posted here. I want to thank you for all of your polite and helpful conversation. The newer folks who have recently bought Go Go's WELCOME!. There is a Huge knowledge base here for this system and this thread as well as the threads listed on the first page of this post will walk you through most if not all issues you may have with this device. Most of the devices sold are problem free however and it is wonderful to have a workhorse like this to just grab and Go Go with and not have to worry about anything like a supply kit to take with me. I do usually carry an extra PV with me, but that is just because there are those times when I want a different flavor from my all day vape of Peppermint. Sometimes I want to take a quick draw off of one of my Rivas of cappuccino or espresso or something I don't vape all the time.

More than anything else at this point though I would like to thank everyone for not fighting or slinging mud so to speak. I appreciate the peaceful time we have developed here. I believe any and all issues can be resolved in this manor regardless of whether or not we "Like" or "Dislike" what has been said.

"OUCH!!!!!!" That Rock ya just threw knocked me clean off of this Soap Box!! LOL

Have a wonderful night everyone

I ordered the prefilled RY4 cartos again; It's the only RY4 that I've had that I actually like.

Yeah I got the 10ml RY4 from cigeasy with my Go-Go and it's amazing.... I wish they made it in like 10 or 12mg tho, the 24mg in the Go-Go is too powerful for me!

I guess I could cut it down (anywhere I can buy inhaling grade PG locally? ), but I'd prolly lose too much flavor.

 

[Joebar]

" Hope it is as good as "advertised"

it is and so is the IGO with a slimer and smaller battery. (1100)

No offense Billb, but why are you cluttering this thread with igo stuff? Isn't this the "Go-Go specific thread"? The people here are obviously interested in (or already own) Go-Go's.

I cut mine down with PG quite often and you sometimes lose a little flavor but you can also buy flavoring and just add a few drops according to your taste. You can buy it locally or pretty cheap at any of the DIY vendors.

Happy Mothers Day Go Go Nation! Helping my Kids cook up some "wafflewiches" for Mom to give her Breakfast in bed

Nate aka Darth Vapor

EDIT: Holy Hanna, Microwaving peanut butter and marsh mellows together is a very painstakingly precise procedure LOL The Marsh Mallows tend to grow exponentially when heated LOL Then they turn into JB Weld when they cool . Great Hit though and the Wifey Loved it

Sorry, don't have a webcam. I posted a really good and easy way to get your filler back in on page 10 of the user's guide. You need a cocktail straw that slips over the center tube perfectly and roll the washed filler on it when the filler is wet. It will roll tighter then. Once it's in, remove the straw and lightly tamp down the filler. Don't forget to dry burn your ultrasonicly washed gocart first and get that nice cherry glow that tells you, you've got a nice working gocart. Honestly, the filler slips in very easy, once you've got the straw and if the filler is wet.

Thanks, mohawk, I may give that a try when I have enough cartos to clean. I want to test the different methods to see if I can tell the difference and which way is easiest. lol GoGo is all about easy for me. I'm beginning to believe the cartos last such a long time I might just treat myself to new ones as needed. La, I love this pv.

Azdave, I have some of that Carmel Mocha at 24mg from CigEasy. I think it's good - at 24mg it makes me light-headed after a couple of vapes so am not quite sure. lol

JB Weld WaffleWiches.....lol I'll bet she loved 'em.

LOL Yes she did, the were easy to make but they must be eaten while Hot because when the peanut butter marsh mallow mix cools it gets really really chewy LOL. But over all peanut butter marsh mallow mix with chocolate chips all and banana slices sandwiched between two Whole Grain waffles makes a pretty darned good Mothers Day breakfast.

I'll have a really nice rundown for you shortly. It is simple and foolproof. With Pictures.

The Gogo finds it’s strength in the cartomizer design. The horizontal coil allows a user to remove all the filler from the carto without disturbing the atomizer. This means that factoring the already long, initial usage of the carto, one can thoroughly inspect, recondition and reuse the gogo carto. Over and Over.

The first step with cleaning the carto is to wet the carto in question under tap water. You will find that the filler is much easier to handle when wet. Trying to remove dry filler can result in pulling out the center tube and the filler sticking together and ruining the carto completely (ask me how I know). After the Carto is completely soaked, do the following.

1. Using a pair of needle nosed pliers, Remove the filler. It will keep it’s shape as a tube. If you’ve soaked it well, the material will separate well. If you have an ultrasonic cleaner, use vodka and clean the empty carto just as you would any atty. If not, run the carto under hot tap water for 5 minutes to flush out all residual. Shake the carto well to dry.

2. While the carto dries, unroll the filler. You will notice that there is an inner wrap of cotton batting and a thicker, outer wrap of polyfil material. Flatten out the polyfil and unroll the cotton batting. Clean thoroughly under hot water until white. Spread both, evenly on a kitchen or paper towel.

3. Go back to your empty carto and blow through it to insure it’s dry. Screw onto battery and push the button while you look down the empty carto. Hold the button down looking for a cherry red glow to the coil at the bottom. This is dry burning. You may have to dry burn 3 or 4 times to remove any caramelizing from the coil. Once you have a cherry red glow from your coil, you know you have a good, clean atomizer for your carto. Rinse out any ash. All that remains is to reinsert the filler properly and you have a brand new carto. This is where most have been having problems.

Refill the carto when the filler is WET.

Picture 1 shows a carto with a standard cocktail straw found in every bar. This straw fits perfectly over the center tube.

Picture 2 shows the cotton batting wrapped around the straw. The batting would be tighter but I had to take my hands off it to take the picture.

Picture 3 shows the polyfil wrapped around the cotton batting and just barely inserted in the empty carto. The filler would be tighter and just slip in but I had to take the picture. Twisting the cartomizer in the same direction as the filler is wound will make re-insertion very easy.

Picture 4 shows the two fillers almost in the carto.

Picture 5 is a McDonalds straw slipped over the cocktail straw and used to lightly tamp down the filler into the carto. Remove the cocktail straw and finish tamping the filler until it is even or just below the center tube.

Picture 6 is the finished product. I can’t tell the difference between this one and a new one. It was refilled with 87 drops of juice and vapes like new.

Here is the final result. The editor would only let me load 5 pics.

RolandPibb was the very first, to my knowledge to suggest cocktail straws as the perfect loading device for carto fillers. I just took the ball and ran with it.

 

[wigglr]

That's a great method - I have also ran them under hot water then baked (only do with stainless steel or later version go-carts ...)
But i have taken out hte filler and it' a great way to clean it!! I love the pictures/explanation
Great job mohawkx

Great Tutorial Mohawkx! Perfectly illustrated as well.

Great Job my Friend

Great job Mohawkx I never quite understood the straw thing... I thought it went inside the tubbing (picture me face palming) A++

anyone have any problems with vapor production and throat hit with the gogo carts? I have 10 of each of the regular resistance (3.0ohm) and the low resistance (2.0 ohm) and just dont get much throat hit at all. the vapor is decent, but the ido carts on my omega totally dominate the gogo's.
