Soooo give us the skinny on these black fusions there Isaac :p Anything else new sneaking in??
Yep Ruppy! Nothing too big really. Fuchsia contoured Drip tips as well as Jet Black,and Smoky Grey. Also the Aluminum Whistle Drip tips in a few colors in 901/510 and 801. We cut down down the 808 Mega into standards which preform very well at 3.7V and 5V. Those were ordered in a very small amount for testing.
What's coming up is going to be something pretty special. We'll be unveiling a new Stealth series with a brand new product that we created along with a more expansive liquid line soon to be in transit.
Will they be on the website tonight maybe?
Yes :D Finally all caught up and ready to go!

Hey Issac, I got my LR 306's today, absolutely amazing on 3.7! My first, (and now my only) dripping attys... Question about your site though, the RY4 says its "in stock" however there is no option to add to cart... There however is an area to "email me when this is back in stock".... can you clear this up? thanks!

sorry for a dumb question, isaac -- but here goes: the fusions have 801 thread, right? what battery thread are they compatible with? is an adapter needed? I keep hearing such wonderful things about the fusions, but so far I'm really liking the 808 and 510 carto's I've got from you
Hey Dan,
Please there is never a dumb question. All needs to be learned some how,and how we would learn if we never asked, right? It does require an 801 fitting for which we supply 510-801 adjustable adapters. They're definitely worth it. I been testing both the Black and Silver for the past few days exclusively and it gave me a remembrance on why they're so popular. The flavor just pops and due to the precision drilling in the fitting, it gives the perfect draw. Of course everything said in the vaping world is purely preference and no one can tell you what is the Best thing out there, but I find them just perfect.
Isaac we need MEGA Fusions and a 3 ML carto! Build it and I will come LMAO

BTW are stainless 808s coming back? I miss them
Ooh now that sounds like a plan! I'll definitely put that one up on the board. Good Call Ruppy! I have to take it slow with creations as each one does come with a heavy cost to have produced under specifics like the Gold V2 DT and Fusion. Wait till you see whats in the works right now. I call it the 510 Cannon ;)
The stainless were supposed to be here during the weekend shipment, but they came in black (again)
Thanks for helping out Dan!!

Just awesome Zab! I have the new 306's on the site right now, but my wife took my camera to go to Utah till Tuesday! They are black topped and have an even sturdier heating filament. There hasn't been one report of the recent batch burning out, we just like to enhance things as we learn.
The Ry4 0mg and 10mg are left> see drop down menu on product listing. ;)
There is definitely more in the works as the feedback had been astronomical. It really is purely warming to know the vets of the old still remember that beautiful taste and that it didn't get lost into too much translation.

Isaac, another basic question, maybe covered earlier in this thread... how would the new LR mega carto work on a standard 808 manual batt (V4L)? If it works, would the LR version offer any advantages over the standard mega?

Hey Jeff,
That, I'm not too sure on exactly. The fact that it is LR wouldn't damage the battery, but you would lose approx 30 minutes of run time from your vaping regiment. The fitting making contact is the question. I have had 2 people tell me that a connection wasn't being made, but also had several state that it's just fine. I know V4L used to use Kanger (creator of cartomizers) for the first year and a half? on the scene, but then switched over to a different manufactur. The two folks that had the complaint had recently made their purchases within the last month or so. So I suppose depending on what model you have, it should work just fine.
If you do make a purchase to experiment, I would suggest trying one out. Don't add any liquid to it. Just screw it on and take the smallest puff possible to determine if a connection is being made.

The LR does have an advantage over the standard in terms of heat. For one to achieve the performance of an LR on 3.7V, one would have to apply 4.7-5V to a standard. The majority's preference is pretty diverse. Folks who love the cooler type vape, happily use a standard on 3.7V as it is totally operational. It's easier if you were to break it all down into watts. V * V / Ω as in 3.7V x 3.7V =13.69 13.69/3 Ω =4.56 watts or 5V*5V=25 25/3Ω = 8.3 watts


food for thought, PG isn't necessarily a bad thing as it's used in many liquids to withstand high temperatures and not caramelize over like VG ruining atomizers and cartomizers. Plus the combination of the two have been tested for years. Inhaling straight VG is truly the unknown as of yet.

Hi Folks,

I finally have some LR901 and Fusion cartos on the way from Isaac. Do you fill these the same way as a Boge LR carto? While I've been waiting I tried a couple LR901's from another vendor and it wouldn't wick. Kept tasting burnt. Of course, it may just have been because they weren't Ikenvapes. But, I just want to make sure.

I take the end off, drop until it looks good and moist, let it sit for at least 1/2 hour or so.

Drip into it until it comes out the bottom, then let sit for a period 15-30 min. Blow out the centre in case any liquid is there. Wipe with a tissue and enjoy :)

Thank you for the careful explanation, Isaac. That really says a lot about you and your company. I think I'll go ahead and give the LR a try and will let you know how things work out. Fingers crossed!
Your very welcome Jeff! and Thank you, please any questions what so ever, you know where to find us! Best of luck and very nice to meet you.

Hey Pizza! Thought I seen you yesterday :)
Ok witht he 901, there are few tricks. 3 drops will last you a good vaping section (one cigarette worth) if the learning curve is achieved. What you want to do with these is add about 5 drops for the initial fill and just let it site for a few minutes so the liquid can get where it needs to be. . The learning curve is to apply 3 drops, and set it down for a few minutes then vape. When your session is over, add 3 more drops and set it aside till your ready for next time to 'smoke a .... per say' so on and so forth. Probably about 5 minutes should do it? I typically vape every half an hour and tend not to hotrod these thing. The secret to longer lasting equipment overall is to keep them very comparable to cigarettes. If I vape for about 5 minutes straight, refill and do it all over again immediately, that will be like chain smoking one cigarette to the next. It gets very difficult for users to determine when to stop as there's no "burning of the filter indication" so to speak. Everything needs ration.

For the Platinum, There's always liquid in the cartomizer regardless if it tastes empty and appears to be through looking in. Remember your only able to see the surface only, that said after your initial fill of 15 drops after opening the package, vape in moderate sessions and when the emptiness returns, we need to push what liquid is already in lower. We do this by adding 5-7 drops, this will give us a full vaping session over again.
The E2 is a perfect example of this, as you can see what liquid is in there, it still feels empty, a small top off of a few drops will fill it back up for further use..
