Ok, so after my 1st day of playing with the GoGo and Echo-e, I'm not happy. Both of them tastes bland, flavorless, like there must have been some primer fluid or something in there. I used the ultrasonic today to clean all used GoGo/Echo-e cartos and will try again tomorrow. I played around with a new 3.5ml Mega cartomizer I got in today from nHaler. Measuring at 2.8 ohm's, it's not so hot on 3.7 but rocks on 5v. I'm posting a picture for comparion with the GoGo/Echo-e cartos and a few other toys. I'll report back on the results of the cleaning.
Pic #1 - Dual Coil, GoGo, Echo-e, 3.5ml NHaler
Pic #2 - GoGo, 1100 Ego, 650 Ego, 510, 5v Foxy Box
Pic #3 - Humidor full of way too many juices. All this in just 40 days!

Nice looking Go-Go's! Where did you get those?

The cartos I got with my kits are still going strong but the new ones only last a few days before they stop producing much vapor and cleaning doesn't make it any better.. I even bought a ultrasonic cleaner to see if that would help. It's been disappointing to say the least. I filled all the original ones and about 10 of the new ones and it's the same for all of the new ones. Plus a few have a nasty taste that the original ones didn't have - maybe some of the powder coating got on the coil??? I like to change off flavors often and vape all DIY at 80/20 so I know it's not the juice with either of the problems. I hope enough people that are having problems will come forward so the vendors can contact the manufacturer and get this fixed. I love the GoGo but at the moment I'm not as happy. BTW I've bought the new cartos from both Nhaler and CigEasy.

That is not good news and to hear it from a long time user brings validity to it. I've been hearing from others but they were new users. Have you contacted Nhaler or Cigeasy? I haven't bought any lately and have enough to last me a year or so but it is not good to hear. The Go-Carto has been the mainstay of the Go-Go, they have been so reliable and consistent. I sure hope it is just a small batch that got through that are like that.

I too am having a serious issue with the new painted cartos I have. They last the initial fill and through some topping off for maybe 5 days or so and then they taper off to the point where I would clean them and when I do they totally go to crap. I surely hope they get this fixed soon.

Have you contacted anyone yet? It is not good news and hope it is not widespread. I hate to see the good Go-Go name get ruined by some bad ones getting out there. I did post on the other forum to see if anyone is aware of the problem.

Ouch - glad I have a large stock from the original group. I think the gogo and echo are great units but unless the sellers get a handle on QC in China, it could spell an untimely end to what should be the next great thing for the masses.

Exactly how I feel! I have a good supply also but want to see others have the same vaping experience we have enjoyed.

Yes TX I am sure there is a very valid explanation for these occurrences. It is what I like to refer to as a glitch I am sure. Hopefully they will get it fixed soon, the fact remains that I am still to this day using the very first carto I ever cracked open and it is still performing admirably as I have become accustomed to and it is over 2 months old as well and has been through at least 4 cleanings in between.

Bummed!!! Just recieved the GoGo to 808 adapters from Cig-Easy and they don't work!!

No connection to the carto. Seems like the center post is too short to bridge the two center contacts. I have positive connection from the goGo batt to the adapter, but the post isn't long enough to contact the carto center tip. And yes, I tried driving the post in the adapter to asure it hit the carto, but then it didn't hit the batt. And both connections are screwed all the way down and fully seated.

Guess I have to contact Cig-Easy and see what can be done. Either flawed design or I got 3 bad ones. Until its resolved, I wouldn't buy these yet.

Anyone else get these and have any luck?

The only luck I have had is the other way around - putting gogo cartos on other batteries (I use them on my provari sometimes). Seems to be really hit or miss on putting other things on the gogo battery.

You have a adapter or something? I thought GoGo only fit itself?

At first I thought I was having issues with my pre-filled (now refilled) go-carts. I would fill them up and then after a couple hours of use the vapor production would drop off noticeably. I would swap out and this would repeat across all the go-carts I refilled. I was baffled. I knew there was still plenty of juice in the things since when I would go to top off I might be able to squeeze 30 drops in before it would be full. I then noticed that when i left my gogo in my shirt pocket, I wouldn't experience this issue. It would appear gravity was and was not being my friend. Since then I have been keeping all my go-carts mostly vertical and have had no issues. Anyone else notice this? And before anyone asks I drop fill with a 50/50 mix.

I have new emptys coming from nhaler so I will see if this happens with them as well.
