Go-Go Specific: Thread for All things Go Go

[NC_Fog]

OK Go-go nation, I have a question. Does anyone else have trouble with certain juices after they have been in the Go-carts 3 to 4 days? The last Go-carts that I've gotten have this filler taste in the juice weather I use them or not(can't even taste the juice). I can spin the juice out and drip it or put in in a new carto and it's fine, but just awful after a few days in the Go-cart. It would seem to me that if something was leaching from the filler into the juice that I would taste it after spinning it out and using it elsewhere.

Hey folks, I have been using the Go-Go for about 6 months now and really like it, I got my kit from cig-easy and I decided to buy another set and this time I got it from Vapers Elite.

The set I got from Vapers Elite doesnt seem as well made and the carto's are completely different. The batteries move around inside the casing and neither of them are 3 click batteries.. I really liked that feature.

Below you can see the difference (kinda hard to tell in the pictures) but the old style on the left has a lot more fiber in it with a longer and bigger straw thing, the new one on the right only has fiber about 1/3 of the way up and the straw is tiny. Any one else seen cartos like this?

 

[Devonmoonshire]

The newer cartos from what I have been told actually hold just as much juice as the old ones do, the filler is just more absorbent so it requires less. And it really is not that much less because as you stated the straw thingy in the middle is smaller in diameter, therefore there is more filler around it than with the old ones. It also allows for more space between the top of the carto and the filler, which leads to less juice in the mouth for chainvapers like myself. Once that carto gets hot the juice in the old cartos would sputter up into my drip tip and then of course end up on my tongue, and if you have ever had hot e-juice hit your tongue it is NOT pleasant at all LOL


Hope that clears it all up for you on the cartos, but this is the very first time I have heard anything negative about the ones from Vapers Elite, I know a couple others who have them and they love em. And ultimately that is really all that actually matters, if you like it, then it is the perfect PV, if you do not however, then of course it is a POS right?

As former smokers of tobacco, we are all inclined to get very emotional about these devices, I however like the scientific and unbiased approach, keeping my emotions in check. Keeps me happier that way because if and when I do inject emotion, it is usually a bad and nasty one

I've bought Go-Go batteries from Cigeasy, Nhaler and Go-goUSA and they all measure 4.2 V off the charger.

Oh I am sure they do TX, I am just saying the one that I got from elsewhere, (Not Go Go USA by the way), did not measure up to my expectations, and it would measure about 3.7-3.8 volts off the charger.

All I am saying is to be aware that just like the Ego, the Go Go's popularity has many companies throwing junk Knock offs out there for unsuspecting vendors and buyers alike.

If you weren't talking about GoGoUSA then why are they being kept off the list? He says he buys from Kanger, same as Nhaler and Cigeasy. To me it appears you are showing favoritism to these two suppliers.

The first go-go cartos had a smaller diameter inner tube. The 2nd incarnation had a larger one. Perhaps you got older stock, or a 3rd rev., or some other companies version...

Buying from the same company and ordering the same specifications are two entirely different things Good Dog.

I can buy Orowheat Wheat Bread and pay $2.50..... Or I can buy Orowheat 7 Grain Whole Grain Wheat Bread for $3.89 per loaf.

Same Label, entirely different product all together.

And Never accuse me of favoritism because I am as unbiased as it gets. However, that being said, I also know what I am getting from those two companies as I have ordered from them before, when I went to another vendor, and that vendor WILL remain unnamed because I refuse to bash anyone including vendors, I got a sub par product in the same exact same wrapper.

Like I said I have not ordered from Go Go USA so I do not personally "Know" that they are or are not the genuine article.

I do however trust txtumbleweed implicitly in his assessment of the products offered. However, of the Original Members of the Go Go Nation I also require more than just One of them to speak up and tell me they are the real deal.

Also, if you read the other post I made in reference to this subject you would understand why I have not yet added Go Go USA. I am not saying I won't, but I have not made that decision yet.

Agreed there Rolandpibb, I have ordered Go Carts 4 times, I have gotten different looks from each order, however I have gotten great performance over all from all 4 orders and each of them holds the same amount of juice, between 78-110 drops depending on which bottle style I use to fill it. Always 2.5 ml or better though.

The good (or unfortunate) thing is my 4 go-go batts I bought from Nhaler are still working wonderfully. I would pick up batts from Eric though.

I agree that the power to place a vendor on a preferred list bears the responsibility to insure that peeps don't buy a Go-go product below highest expectations and exercising that judiciously is commendable. However, the converse is also true. If there is a supplier whose products match the accredited suppliers and especially if there prices are lower, then it's grossly unfair to not include them. So the responsibility therefor demands doing what it takes to see if they deserve it, leaving them off by default is not sufficient, IMO.

Exactly right, and thus far the feedback I have received from those who have Purchased from Eric, He is very much getting the accolades and support from his customers to definitely be placed there.

However, we must also keep in mind that I owned my Go Go for over a Month before I started this thread, I also put that Go Go through the most horrendous torture tests known to man, (to include passing out from chainvaping that thing until it was burned to a crisp, which by the way, it never did burn, it won that battle because I fell out before it failed).

So I am sure that within the next couple of weeks as long as the positive feedback from the folks buying from him, especially those who own the first generation and therefore the "Original" Go Go's continue to pour in.

Hey there Marty, I am very sorry to hear about the woes with the latest cartos. If I may ask, what Juice are you using in them? PG/VG mix, flavor nicotine in mg? I have never had a filler taste out of a Go Cart before that I can remember, especially a taste that dissipates after transferring the same juice to another carto. That is just bizarre in every way.

What I am wondering is if perhaps the coil itself could be imparting that flavor to your juice and they are just a bad batch of coils, or even the filler may be somewhat different than previous versions.

I am very curious about this one as it is a new issue that I have yet to see or hear about.

Nate, I found it kinda odd myself. No burnt taste, just this weird filler taste. The juice is a very lightly sweet Virginia tobacco. It's suppose to be PG but may have a small percentage of VG in it also. The Green Sour Apple does it also but it takes about a week. None of the first Go-carts that I first got with my Go-go kits did this(2 kits.) I can wash out the Go-carts and dry them and they are good for another 3 to 4 days before the bad taste comes back again. As I mentioned earlier, it doesn't matter whether I use them or not. I can fill a new cart, put it aside for a few days and it still develops the filler taste that I'm referring to.

Thanks, I have ordered a few sets from Cig-Easy and they have always been the same, these new ones are different, even the rubber tips are different, the old ones are flat and go into the carto about 1/8th" and the ones I got from Vapers Elite are more rounded at the tip and go into the carto about 1/4", just wondered if they were old? new? or knock offs. I think the ones I got from Vapers Elite are old stock since they dont have the newer design 3 click battery.

Either way they seem to work fine so far..

The newer cartos from what I have been told actually hold just as much juice as the old ones do, the filler is just more absorbent so it requires less. And it really is not that much less because as you stated the straw thingy in the middle is smaller in diameter, therefore there is more filler around it than with the old ones.

The 3-click bat made a brief appearance on the market after the initial ones that didn't, then they disappeared, due to some issues. They're not newer bats and from the looks of things, we won't see those again.

 

[rolandpibb]

Some juices cake the coil more than others. My juicy clear juices are 73/27 but my Creme D'Menthe cartos can be filled more times before getting funky tasting than my Canadian Full Flavour ones can.

I used to clean and re-use cartos, but I find I get so much more satisfaction out of spending a little more and cranking out new cartos more often.

 

[mohawkx]

Has anyone used a gogo cartomizer that has a gold battery end? If so, how was the performance with these compared to the standard gogo cartomizer with the silver battery end?

 

[mohawkx]

Anybody?? I can't be the only one who got 3, gold tipped gogo cartos. There's got to be more of them out there. Anybody?

 

[stomkat]

Made a tank yesterday with a hole in the side, and used a tip from an ego cart. It's a bust. Started leaking immediately. Covered the hole in the middle of the ego tip, that helped. But it leaks again after a few hits. I think I lost the vacuum effect.

Gonna look around next week for something small and rubber to use as a stopper.

Sorry, mohawkx, have ordered 4 times myself from different suppliers and never received ones with gold tips.
