My mother, who I recently converted to vaping after being a smoker for 40 years (!!!!!), wants to stock up on supplies. She wants to buy around 100 Boge cartos..... probably 2.0 LR SS so we can punch them for her tank. I think it was Vapor Kings that had a deal going where when you bought 10 boxes you got a discount, making it about 60 bucks for 50 cartos..... but when I went to the site today they were out of stock... or didn't have enough in stock. Crystal Clear vaping also has their 15 carto deal but they don't have what I'm looking for either!

I also have one more question..... my mom uses a Riva 510 and I've always been told to use 2.0 LRs. Can you use 2.7s also for a cooler vape or are the 2.0s the best choice? I use both Boges and Fusions... A Fusion 3.0 on my Buzz Pro, Boges on my Riva and my Reo Grande (2.0 for 3.7 volt vaping and 3.0 for 5 volt vaping). Again, could I use the 2.7s on the Reo for 3.7 vaping? And with my Reo Grand, can I overcharge the big AW IMR 18650 3.7 volt battery? I just got my Reo and am vaping using the 3.7 volt long battery (charged in the Trustfire TR-001 I got with my Buzz Pro ). I know with my powerizers for my Buzz Pro that aren't protected that I have to watch them carefully and remove them quickly once they've taken a full charge and the light turns green. This morning after charging my Reo battery it seemed over-charged.. I burned through two cartos until it started running properly. Once it had been used for a bit, it ws ok again and is now vaping perfectly. But I do not want a repeat of what happened this morning.. it was NOT a case of the cartos being dry, etc...so the over-charged batt idea was all I could come up with.

Thanks.. I hope someone with more experience can answer my questions... I've been cig free for going on 4 months now (I haven't been counting so it might even be a bit longer). I'm still very green with a lot of this stuff and have a ton to learn. Thanks to ECF and the awesome folks here I've learned a lot in the past couple of months but I still have a long way to go before I'm a pro at this stuff

So, yeah... any tips on where I could get a good bulk carto deal would be great They have to be SS... no blacks. Thanks!! Jess

I do not like to be negative, BUT, I have often stocked up in the past, and mostly regreted it. The e-cig world is changing so fast that no matter how much you enjoy a particular flavor or device, when you try something else it might be better. I caution about making a big $$$$ bet.

Of course be VERY carefull with the batteries, I suggest protected batts. in a box with some kitty litter or sand, a removeable top, and a charger on a timer. This should give you a safety factor....
