definitely not. regular size 510 is the way to go with these. there's too much play with the xl size. gotvapes and healthcabin are the best suppliers i've found. haven't tried genesis line yet but it's supposed to be a 'bulletproof' ce2 replacement.

I can't remember where I saw him post, but I am pretty sure I saw a reference to getting in a vision nano, which I think is supposed to be the .8 ml vision. So that may be a future option.

Just curious, but how often do you guys have to fill those itty bitty things? It drove me nuts, I had to fill like 7 times a day, but I vape ALOT.

Sent from my G2...so please excuse the spelling errors, correct gets the best of me.

too often. but tolerable when you run several in series. see my setup as follows. with a 500 micro syringe and flexi tip from a catheter (instead of a needle) these are very easy to fill.

for capacity i would skip the ce2 xl. much better options out there like torpedo tanks and genesis line.

I use these little ones for my "accent vapes". Usually I have two or three "main vapes" in bigger cartos, like Visions Reg., and a couple of accents, like sweet desert, or something weird like herb, in the small ones. So I don't refill them too often because I only take a few drags on them once in a while. That said, I really like these small ones for this purpose. I don't like my juice sitting in the carto forever, so filling a full size carto with an accent juice seems like a waste. Plus, the small ones don't need any modding, they just work, no fuss, no muss.

Of course, Visions Reg are like that too, so I'm not as desperate for the Fluxo Regs anymore. Still wish they'd get a restock on them some time soon... I have to admit that part of my attraction to Fluxos nowadays is that I can use my pretty drip tips in them. :D

Personally, I got tired of waiting. I bought 27 boxes of regular CE-2s (with the new tubes) from a different company. After hearing "next week" every week for 2 months, I couldn't wait any longer.

God bless GotVapes for introducing me to the Clearomizers - my vaping life has forever changed (for the better) because of it, but you seem more interested in finding the next new thing rather than restocking the tried and true products that brought you customers in the first place.

yep. latest ce2 is great. in the din of "I hate ce2" complaints, these guys responded with logical instructions and improvements. ce3 was a worthy attempt. now pyrex tubes and steel wicks please. the mini ultrasonic atomizer replacing the coil .. i guess i can wait until next year :)

Glad you can find what you need :)
ce2's are a complicated animal!!! The improvments happen so fast because of the dilegence of Chris and Dan to get the bugs out of the product and have a product that is efficient and dependable.
I see it as a double edge sword...a new version comes out, and then there are tweaks that need to be made...so, if Chris and Dan stock the old version and pay regular price to stock up on it and then days later the new version comes in....they will loose money with stocking up on the old version....not sure if that made sence.
I use the Vision, most of the sizes,,,and they last quite a long time for me and I still have a stash of fluxos from when I first started coming to Gotvapes. When you like something that still in the works and such, these stocking issues will happen.
Yeah,,,I would love to see a fresh batch of the vision regulars come in, and I do get frustrated....but, you can't beat innovation and because I trust that Gotvapes wants the product to be "sound" there is, for me, reason for stocking issues.
Would you want the ce2 to be back where it started almost a year ago..or even the vision...wowowow, talk about improvement!

Also...Gotvapes cannot control customs and I am sure they are anxious as well to get things stocked but sometimes it is out of anyones control but customs

I fill it alot. Sometimes at work or at home I leave the rubber do-dads out for quick fill. But when it comes too stealth vaping xl's, tanks, etc don't cut it. I already have the smallest (inexpensive) box mode I could find in a 3.7v. Plunking a tank or XL on it is just asking for trouble in the pocket. Also I have difficulty justifing the expense when something may go wrong and I have to toss one, $10=flush. Lastly, my old CE-X still have better coils/wicks then the new CE regulars. I have 3 that are still kicking after 6 months. Once a new CE goes out I use the tube on my old CE-X's. Needless to say I have more tubes than innards now.

Ya know, it's not that they are out of stock that bothers me. It's the complete lack of aknowledgement! I don't mind buying somewhere else, but geez, throw us a bone.

I have, up until know, been an avid follower of all things GV. But, aside from checking on bombs, I've not had a reason to visit here. Nor have I been able to order anything from them. Don't get me wrong, GV is bleeding edge and that's good. However, at some point you just want something that you know how to make it work and make it work.

I only hope their silence means the kinks are being worked out and not another CE-REV200 that will have it's own set of quirks that we have to figure out.

My guess, due to being ignored, is they are being phased out. With the Vision line and their focus on tanks, the lone CE clearomize is being out marketed. It's a shame. I can get more use (fills) per dollar than it seems any vision or stardust or stone can give. For less than $2 I get 2 months out one little CE. NOT going to spend $10 on anything that MAY last that long. Goes back to making products that fail by design to make money. I'm not saying this is the case with GV. Just seems the way of manufacturing these days.

So GV, take note. I will not buy a tank, unless the ROI is equal to a CE. Thank you very much.

yes i think in the next few days they should be back in

also the vision nanos will be up today which are in the same category of size etc..

Thanks for the reply, Chris. Now these Vision nanos and so forth, are the CE2 stems insides replaceable with the existing Fluxo stems we may have? Not flaming, just asking.

and Slappy, I do agree there, price and looks wise I prefer the Reg. CE2, nothing vapes better and is VERY easy to fill via luer lock bottle/blunt tip needle. Especially if you're one that doesn't like to remove the fill plug (bottom most).

fluxos arent going anywhere, and more are coming including regualr size so there is no worries there, we are a leader with the ce2's and that wont change, we just wanted to wait for a while until we decided what we will carry, so regualrs will come back but not in colors, just clear.

same with the 808 fluxo's, we will continue to carry them. People buy our fluxos all day long and we love them as well so there is no need to worry.

This is good news. WTG on just clear, can't really see the juice level unless you hold the colors ones up to the sun, lol!
