How many cartomisers?

[cookiebun]

Those of you who use blank cartomizers:
What's the minimum number you like to have on hand?
I currently have about 30.
I have a bunch of sample packs coming this week and think I may need more.
Also, where do I find Boge standard resistance cartomizers?
I only have Wow and Cool Carts I got from V4L.
What other cartomizers work with the kd808 (Vapor King)
I need more vapor.
Wow carts are ok once I get them going but they don't last long.

You refill them, right?

I go through a lot of cartomizers.

My mom really likes the carts from Ikenvape for her v4L pv, they are super long!
IKV MEGA KR-808 Cartomizer

I also get her carts at lite cig usa
KR808d-1 PREMIUM Blank Cartomizers

Thanks.
Yes I've been refilling them.
I've been vaping a lot and the WoWs last barely an hour.

Get a little drip dip so you won't have to pop the little rubber thingy off.

I have about 20 filled and in rotation. I buy whenever they're on sale, so I'm getting quite a stockpile.
You can get Boge kr808 standard at Liberty Flights.

Hope this helps

Thanks.
Dang, two of those places are out of stock.

I buy 3 boxes (5 cartos per box) a month. I use them for 2 days (sometimes 3) and toss them. Litecigusa.net has the 2ohm 808's if you're still looking for some with a little lower resistance. Also, for more vapor, try liquids with a little more VG in them.

I don't understand any of this "drip tip/dip" business.
They make them for the kd808?

Drip tips - go to LiteCigUSA.net to find plastic and delrin ones that say 510/901/KR808D-1 - the rubber o-ring on those is thin enough to fit in KR8 cartos. I like to use plastic and delrin in the cartos. When actually driping on an atomizer I prefer metal. I do not drip into the drip tip on a carto since you don't want the juice to go down the center air channel. But a drip tip makes a nice mouthpiece (especially on a hot carto) and no tools needed to pull it out and add juice.

I tried a couple of those gorgeous 510/901 twisted drip tips from nHaler but the o-ring is too big to slip easily into the KR8 cartos - bummer. But I'll use those on my 510.

I vape 2 cartos at a time (one each on two ecigs, KR8 and 510) and I can get 2-4 weeks out of a Boge soft-cap for 510 vaping it 1/2 the time. The VaporLife ones for KR8 seem to be more normal lifespan - I can get 1-2 weeks out of one vaping it 1/2 the time.

I have about as many as you. When China has a long holiday the US shops can run out of some kinds of cartos. Ditto that time the FDA decided to block ecig stuff coming out of China for weeks.

Try Cignot.com - I think they have them in. And they have great customer service.

Boge Soft Tips, 2.0 Ohms: 75 and more coming. Clearomizers 2.4 ohms: 10 left, and more of those coming, too.

I'm still building up my stockpile, so I'm always getting a lot more than I need. I think when I hit a grand total of 200, I'll be comfortable. At one carto per week, that will last me for almost 4 years. Then, I'll just buy them as I need them, firm in the knowledge that it doesn't matter what happens with exchange rates, global transport, the FD-F'ing-A, idiot politicians, or a potential complete collapse of the U.S. Dollar (which, at this point, is a given, btw)... I'm covered. Plenty of time to wean myself down to zero nicotine, should I choose to. I DIY my juice, and keep a full 2 years worth of nicotine in the freezer also, & rotate my stock.

Everything but the atomizing element and the nicotine I can make myself or purchase for some other purpose. Those two things are what I'm really concerned about stockpiling.

It's not that difficult to build/rebuild an atomizer.

My boge LRs last me 1 DAY!!! I don't know how everyone else gets a week or 2 out of them.

 

[cookiebun]

Cignot and litcigusa are both out of those driptips.

hiram13pm : I agree. I might build up my own stock pile in anticipation of an FDA crack down.

If it comes down to that, I've got about 25' of nichrome wire... but it's a huge pain in the a--, and my eyes aren't that good anymore.

I'm less worried about the FDA than our losing reserve currency status for the dollar. It's already starting to happen; China and Russia inked a deal last November to trade oil in their own currencies, bypassing Bretton-Woods. Rumors of QE3 are starting to circulate. At some point, the bottom will fall out of the dollar, and all imports will go through the roof.

5 pack of cartos for $25? $40? How many dollars will it take when no one outside the US accepts dollars anymore?

I've got, lets see, 5 that work perfectly, 2 that kinda work, 2 ce2's that I haven't tested yet, and 1 that's toast I'm gonna dissect. I'm gonna get another 10-15 asap, but these smartcarts are good stuff.

 

[Edward Nozycoreki]

I'm using only two CE2 XL first on ego, second on kr808 usb. Of course I've got about 5 new one for replacment, but CE2 are that good that I don't feel need for having a big supply (I use one for about month, still working great when I put it away).

I don't know how, but each Boge LR (2 ohm) 510 carto lasts me an average of 3 weeks. Knock on wood.

 

[otrpu]

I actually start ordering more when my supply drops to 100 C-E2 XL Carto's/Clearo's. I'm not positive, but I may be on the extreme end of the scale.
