Hey Ladies and Gentelman

Been reading this forum for a month before i signed up, i must say a lot of things i learned. Finaly made a decision on getting my self a KGO from Hoosiers. Got my self some Boge XXL LR 2.0 cartomizers and Classic tabacco ejuice from a local guy.
I have read about clearomizers, ressurectors and other different stuff, but never have tryed those, and not willing to throw money on everything to see what i like most.

Here is what i noticed:
1. Boge lr2.0 xxl 5 pack-- only 2 worked well out of 5
2. Classic tabacco juice 16ml nic--very weak
3. I vape all day, and feel nothing.

Can some one suggest 1 or 2 sets ups that can get me:
1. lots of vapor and th
2. Something that would last me all day with out refilling (i'd like to fill once in the morning)
3. i dont want any leaks or high maintnance

Thank you

The 16mg may just be not enough nic to satisify your cravings, I smoked about 1 1/2 PAD and it took 36mg liquid to beat back the nic fits. Also vaping supplies the nic slower than smoking, different feeling, takes a little getting used to...:)

Regarding the cartos, everyone has their own favorites and it depends on a number of factors. They can be standard or low resistance (lower resistance = hotter vape, more vapor), then they can be top coil, vertical coil or bottom coil design (top are warmer), also they can be filler-less or use filler like your boge, lastly they can be single or dual coil.

Personally I prefer a filler-less top coil in standard to high resistance, used on my 5v mod, I have a case that will hold 5 cartos and usually 3 will last me all day. The variations may seem endless, but you will soon find what works for you in each category. Keep in mind if you try a carto, and not like it, break it down for it's characteristics, figure which you like and which you don't.

Something like this Bauway 510 XL CE2 Style Black Cartomizers, 2.4-2.6 Ohm, 5 pack would work for your kGo, (bit too low resistance for what I vape). Get a 10 mL syringe for filling, and a couple drip tips. (It's a single-top coil, low resistance, filler-less)

How much do you vape in a day? How much juice do you go through?

There are larger top-coil clearomizers that'll fit your kGo and hold 2.5 or 3.5ml of juice.
If you don't go through that much, there are small tanks and there are clearomizers like the CE4s that hold 1.5ml or so.

Throat hit depends on your nicotine content more than what's on the end of your kGo.

I suggest you NOT get a dual coil anything. The kgo is only 3.7V or so. You really need over 4V to power a dual coil. Anything less will just give you a lot of lukewarm fog. You should be using about 2-2.5ohms for some decent, warm vapor. Dual coils have two 3ohm coils inside and that'll only give you about 4.5 watts. You want more like 6-8 watts. A 2ohm carto or clearo will give you 6.8 watts, which is pretty decent.

I agree with Sailorman. Use only single coil 1.5-2.2 ohm cartos/attys on your 3.7v KGO and it should perform quite nicely.

While I prefer to drip if I'm stationary (not moving about), I do use Boge LR cartos (2.0-2.3 ohm) when I'm driving or out on the golf course and they work quite well. I also use CE4 bottom coils which work great too. There are plenty of tank options out there, but initially I would focus on low maintenance "Stardust" or CE4 styles if a tank is what you want. I just finished a 7 hour road trip and vaped through 1 carto and maybe 1/4 of a CE4.

Most of us had to go through a trial and error phase. I personally just made it a point that when I ordered something I needed, I would pick up something new to try like a dripping atty or a certain type of carto. If you like it, you order more, if not, well you don't have to use the one you bought. Stick with it and you'll find your "vaping nirvana" at some point.

Hope this helps,

J

Yeah, 24mg isn't too strong. 5-7mls is a pretty large tank. They have tanks that hold that much, but most of them are cartomizer tanks which can be a hassle sometimes, especially in the beginning when you're getting the hole(s) just right so the don't flood or run dry.

I'd be looking at some larger atomizer tanks like the Vivi Nova. It holds about 3.5-4ml and it's super easy to refill. No syringes or anything. It's got a screw on top you just dump the juice right it from the bottle. The atomizer heads are replaceable for less than a pre-punched cartomizer and there's none of the fiddling like with a carto tank. It comes with three replaceable atomizer heads too.

No. There is a box that says "Select options" In that box, right next to where it says "5ml 0mg" there is a an arrow you click to select the nic level and the quantity you want.
