I have like 5 new boxes with V4L carto.
5 new boxes of other vendor's carto.
and some others I have collected.

By the way, each box contains 5 cartomizers.

I am impressed on people can last the entire day using 2 cartos.
You guys must vape 3-4 times a day.

Then I will offer my apologies. That's what happens when you assume! :oops:

I get a lot more than 2 cigs worth out of my cartos. Some days it seems like my VK hardly leaves my lips. On days like that I probably go through 5 or 6 cartos a day.

Well for someone who is just starting to use the carto's, I find this poll quite helpful in trying to determine an average of how may I may need to order for my first or second order to keep me going from one order till the next...till I can figure out for myself how much 'I' need for my usage.

Anyone using this poll to determine how much they need to order will be disappointed. It's much better to ask for suggestions, and when you do post what brand of cigs you are smoking, how many cigs you smoke per day and how many years you have smoked. With that information most of us can make suggestions based on our experiences...and even if you have smoked the same as another user your mileage may very well vary.

I smoked for 40 years a pack and a half per day. I was smoking Marboro Menthol Light 100's before I quit. Many on this forum thought I should use 24mg strength and as far as how many carto's per day the responses varied. You really don't know until you start and refilling used carto's also plays into the equation.

I did start with 24mg and was using 2 to 3 cartos per day. Shortly after I started vaping I needed to lower the nic a notch and am currently rotating between 8 cartos. I top them off every few days.

I don't mean to come across as bashing this poll...lol. But it's useless for trying to decide how much to order.

How can it be helpful?

He does not even mention if the OP refills the carto's or throws them away after 1 use.

He does not mention if he's a heavy or light user, some people use it all the time, some pick it up and put it down after 4 or 5 puffs.
He does not mention if he uses a passthrough, a manual or auto battery.

I can go on and on.

Too many variables.

Well it does take just a lil bit of common sense to get an 'average'.....It doesn't even matter if they are new or refilled carto's or what type battery or pass through was used... if you look at the poll as a whole you can get an 'average' idea of what you may need as a newby.


When you use a pass through you go through the liquid a whole lot faster than using a manual battery.

Using a pre-filled card is fine, but you never know how much liquid is in there.
There have been many problems with underfilled carto's.
If you fill the blank carto yourself, you know how much liquid is in there.

I have no idea how many I go through a day. I have 7 carts open on my desk now. I think a person's usage varies on a number of things like how you vape, how many carts do u vape at a time, what equipment you use whether auto batt or passthru. A new user may have a whole group of variables of its own as well. My first week on an e-cigg was a V4L cart and equipment and I loved it so much I went through in a couple days what I thought would last me a week. Not only because i liked it but I ordered an very low nic level 8. I would suggest starting with a medium nic level or above and ordering twice as many carts as u think u will need because you are going to enjoy it so much. I ran out and had to use an analog for about 4 days till another order came in...yuck.
If I had to guess I would guess 2 to 3 carts a day for me. This number seems to change from day to day depending on what I'm doing that day. Sitting at my desk or working in the shop.

I guess I'm lucky. I feel that I vape as much as I smoked (smoked a pack a day) yet I get about a day out of a new cartomizer. With the new ones from V4L that have a full 1ml in them I've been getting almost a day and a half out of one cartomizer.

For me one cartomizer = one pack of smokes. This is at 24 mg on a battery...no passthru.
