i have the elite 808 and have recently got a sample pack of juices. the cartos are 2ml and i only have 5 cartos. i dont want to sample with that as it takes up most of the sample.

the elite 808 carto is a horizontal coil. i tried taking everything out of one (becuase i didnt care, i accidentally dropped that one cleaning it and all the stuff came out anyohow) and tried putting about 2 drops in there. it didnt work real well, most of it came out of the bottom hole. there isnt any sort of 'dam' down there to hold anything that the very short wicks dont absorb.

do i have to buy an adapter and atty setup? can i mod what i have?

If I were you I would get my hands on a box of standard Kr808 Vertical Cartos, then mod them for dripping.

Here you go...............



Hope that helped........:2cool:

Do one drop at a time, but you'll have to drip every other hit. Those horizontal coils are literally right over the battery hole.

If you are ordering get an atomizer for dripping. Using a dissembled cartomizer works in a pinch, but far from the best way to drip. You can get a 808 to 510 adapter (goodprophets.com) and use any of the standard resistance 510 atomizers on it. Get some drip tips too.

    Now I just have to get an old plugged up Boge carto out of the trash can and try that.

    Epic fail!
    In case you have never seen the "coil" in a Boge carto ......

    I also have an elite 808 kit and I would recommend getting a standard 901 atomiser from E-Liquid and Electronic Cigarette Shop - Category Listings , they are only a few bucks and you will not need an adapter. I would also recommend getting 2 #6 o-rings from your local hardware store to put around the air intake hole on the atomiser to prevent juice leaking out, works like a charm.
