I got my KR808 today. and i really. really. really.. REALLY like it.

It came with 6 marlboro 11MG cartos

I only have one question that I hope one of you guys will see.

I'm not really sure how to explain this. i've been vaping for a little bit now, and I'm not getting alot of vapor or throat hit anymore. its like the cart is empty, but I'm sure it can't be, so its like the juice isn't reaching the atomizer section of the cartomizer? do I just leave it alone for awile? or do I need to refill?

I see that attitude a lot and I honestly do not understand it. First off, the Igo is made to last a long time both chargewise and juicewise. It's when you're away from home that you need it. Second, people hate smoking and whether they admit it or not, they hate smokers. Why do you want to look like you're smoking? My first kit which I will never pick up unless I'm desperate is the only cigarette sized thing I have. I used the eGo in public for quite a while. Lately, I've been using a homemade box mod that looks like it fell off a UFO. The police don't pull me over, nobody points and no one thinks I'm smoking. What could be better?

Most of my vaping outside of the home is stealth vaping at work, where it looks like I'm chewing on a pen. I also stealth vape in restaurants. So, I don't look like I'm smoking. The IGo gives off a lot of vapor, so it would be nearly impossible to hide what I'm doing. I don't want to deal with the haters; they really tick me off.

For me, vaping is fabulous because of the nic and the taste, not the vapor. I don't really care how much vapor my ecig produces, as long as it hits the spot.

It sounds like you need to add juice to the carto - don't let it run dry or it will singe and taste disgusting. Also, you're not likely to get much of a throat hit with 11mg cartos.

arn't the cartos supposed to last for about a pack of cigarettes before needing to be refilled though? the throat hit is definitely right were it should be (for me anyways) I just don't like that performance of the PV diminishes over time

It's not an exact science or even overly consistent, especially various cartos. Try dropping some in-can do both end-over a tissue. If and when it's full you'll know for sure as it'll leak a bit. Then let it sit kinda propped up for at least ten minutes. Can't hurt to rotate a couple times either to help gravity do it's thing.

great tip

I've been using the condom method of refilling. Today I think i put a bit too much in, i waited a couple hours and when i put the cart on, there was this bubbling noise and then i got a mouth full of e juice.

I spit it out right away, I just hope I don't die or something crazy like that.

I quit using a Blu starter kit. It was the one thing that made me quit. Then I had to do a remote broadcast from a club. The thing just stayed on and I had to unplug the atomizer. Batteries were constantly having to be charged. Then I got manual 510 batteries and passthrough. Still had to constantly charge batteries. My wife still has that same passthough and loves it. Then I got an ego, and I loved that, then a SB and loved that. Now I am regressing to smaller mods like the Icon and Alpha, because I love the Ego, but batteries for these devises once dead are thrown away, and seperate batteries are more powerful. It's just according to if you want to skip a few steps or waste all the money I did to get started with Blu.

I would be sure to make a list of all the different e-cigs out there, mark down there reviews and then make you own opinion on them. Someones taste could be completely different from yours. You don't want to waste your money, of course not. So ask some friends or family. People who are like you in a way and then make a choice on which ones to try :)
