Ok..I am really trying...thanks to I want to quit, I am going to try a cisco atty, just ordered..but honestly, all my LR 306's taste..~eh~ nowhere near the flavor of my boge so I'm right back to cartos..which are costing me a fortune because of the particular juice I use..it fries them quick (yes they are always wet!). The taste is absolute heaven..then it dies down..then it gets just bleck! Hoping to step away from cartos since I don't want to give up my beloved fav fav juice was a big part of my motivation for trying a reo mini. So far I'm not succeeding!

The 2.0's go quick..1.5's faster...3.0's I don't like the vape...????

It is tasty vapor juice I prefer.

The 306 is lr so I believe 1.5? but I don't ever get a good flavor...it's flat, almost muted. That said, I tried several 510's, no clue on resistance as I know I had both (more standard than LR) & they are no longer marked, but those were even worse as far as lack of flavor went. Good vapor..ZERO flavor & TH.

meems, are you using 306's with the same ohm rating as your cartos? If you are using 2 ohm Boge cartos and 1.5 ohm 306's, the 1.5 ohms might be too hot for your juice. Some flavors will not hold up to 1.5 ohm vaping.

That's why its good to make a thread about it mlinky got a good point on this one. I use only 1.5 ohm 306 and certain juices are just not working out as well with the 1.5ohm, however, 90% of the juices I vape work even better with the 1.5ohm 306.

+1 for mlinky she may just found the issue you are having.

meems, don't give up. Do you have a multimeter? It is easy to measure the resistance of the attys you have, and then we can troubleshoot. If you don't have one, you can pick up one for less than $20 ($5 at Harbor Freight).


I don't have one...and am so tired of spending spending spending. I swear I place 5 orders a week! We have freight harbor, but it's like 40 min from me...not sure when I can get out there.

Duals aren't going to do any better than Boges. You like the flavor of the Boge 2 ohm cartos, but they won't hold up to your juice, so the best thing is to find you a 2 ohm atomizer. That should get you at least the same heat level as your cartos. I have some juices that are just foul at 1.5 ohms, and almost all of them are tasteless, to me, on standard resistance. Then, you can work on your squonking. Over juicing/flooding attys will mute the flavor and cut down on the vapor.

what if flavor is muted but lots of vapor? is that squonked right?

I like the flavor of the 1.5...but I can go through 2 cartos a day...3 if I didn't force myself to hold out.

Just keep in mind with the LR 306s they take a little bit to break in so your initial impression may not be to your liking. And prime the atty before you use it by dripping at least 5 drops in there and let it sit for about 10 minutes to give the wick a good soak. Give it a day or two and take your time. If you're having difficulties, let us know...we'll help you as best we can. :)


These were purchased a while ago & broken in trying dripping when I first got my ego...they they are broken in.

OK, so you know that you like the juice at 1.5 ohms?

And the new attys that you have are Cisco 306 1.5 ?

It's time to try a different juice!

At least for a short period of time......

It's the only your going to figure out for sure if it's really the juice or some other problem.

How many ml do you vape a day? Are you only getting 1ml or less per carto ?

I love Boge cartos and I've had some tough juice, but 6ml is about the least I ever get before I have to change out a carto.
I've found that juice that's tough on the carto is also tough on an Atty too which can be just expensive or worse.
Certainly more time consuming with the cleaning every day.

I like it yes...just not for long...just popped one on my other ox mod..nom nom nom...oh I'd kill for that new carto flavor!


Did your juice taste good dripping with those attys?

I used it mostly to try dripping (hated the hassle) then moved them to testing juices to see if I like them, I hadn't moved to boge's prior the the dripping test to compare. the same flavor on the 306 lr & a brand new carto just don't compare for me, I'm perplexed as I usually read the opposite to be true for most.

I ordered some BWB...but..sniff...it doesn't smell as absolutely out of this world as my TV of the same flavor...insert melancholy voice..I haven't popped in it a carto yet, but it also hasn't steeped. I so dread going down the "find a juice trail" again, KWIM?
