Initial Review: Greencig G300 2 piece e-cig

[RsL]

@Rsl - that seems roughly right going by 'feel.' Just been tough to count for me start to finish, and I've been topping off.

Do you notice a flavor difference then, before you stopped on the last cart? Have you refilled it yet? Curious as to experience on refilling them (I've done it a few times now, but mostly via dripping.)

That 100 count is pretty accurate. I had to take a long drive today so it was easy for me not to get distracted and lose count.

Flavor is there right until it stops. I noticed a drop off on performance, but I'm sure that was the result of the battery and not the cart.

I haven't tried dripping yet, but I will on one of these carts. But then again, I look at it this way, if I have to fill/drip a cart I might as well just use my 510 or VX2 !!

about the numbers refilling these cartomizers.
i'm still waiting for my 1st order, but the users of the german forum are all very happy with them, they tend to last very long. i still have to hear about a dead atomizer yet.

from that point, i find them really cheap.. at least here in germany with sometimes a little 10% discount.

the greatest problem is availability, i should have better shut my mouth and not "posauning" it out to the world before i got my first 10 of them here + my adapter for the kissbox classic.

Wagster....the short batteries are all 4 hole batteries...so they won't work with the greencig carts. They don;t have the channel on the positive contact of the battery like the two holes. You can create a channel with a hacksaw....but then you can also do that with a 901 battery and it will work.

I have a short battery from VaporOptions and it only has two holes

Sure..it's a tradeoff I guess. You *were* 'refilling' your KR carts though for a while, no? What would be the difference here, really, except - it doesn't burn up?

(Not saying I think it does or doesn't make economic/$ sense..I remain unsure on the life of these at this point).

Actually I never had much luck with re-filling the the KR carts through the battery end. They just never seemed to work as well after re-filling so I gave up on it. And no, I never used EDO's method which from his description works well.

But back to the Greencig carts. I just refilled one. I put 15 drops into the battery end, I let the cart sit for 5 minutes and then tried it out. So far it's working great, as well as the original cart and certainly better than when I refilled KR carts from the battery end. I'll update later of course...

Well, we *do* appreciate that link to the VR.

Any chance you can find out the general info on refilling, as in, taste or vapor degradation, how many refills people typically do on them?

I *will* promise not to buy them all

 

[wegster]

@Erica - thanks, email sent off to them to confirm, although I should have a pair headed my way currently, thanks to a board member...

EDO, Erica is right the VaporOptions short battery WORKS with the Greenworld Tech cartomizers.

 

[dohsma]

I just ordered some greencig cartomizers for my KR batts. I will chime in with impressions once I get them as well.

Except these are way quicker, easier and neater to refill (at least for me) and the refills last much longer than topping off any of the 3 piece models I've tried (which does NOT include the 510 or VX2.)

I wish I knew where he got that tool from as it's not easy taken these apart without making a bit of a mess of the end of the cartidge.

I just straightened a medium weight paper clip, made a sharp bend on the end just past 90°, and snipped that part off very short. Worked like a charm on the mouthpiece cap and the inner cart

Yes apparently they do have short ones now that are two hole....which is great if any wants to try them on the PCC offered by Greencig...Wegster will probably let us know if they indeed fit.

Yes I find it much easier/neater to top off from the battery end vs topping off a cart of a three piece unit. They also last a lot longer. I can get 30-40 hits off of 4 drops on a preemptive top off with the KR carts vs maybe 10-15 with the 510 carts. I would imagine that it should work just as well with the greencig carts...every 30-40 hits just add 4 drops....that way the ato will always be moist....without flooding it.


Good tip for removing the cart cap.

Yes, regular, small preemptive top offs might be the way to go with the GreenCigs, though so far I've had good luck with 14 to 21 drops in the battery end as soon as the vapor production drops. I just let 'em sit for awhile on the mouthpiece end to give time for the juice to flow down. It's very nice not to have to worry about burning them if you don't have time to top off, and I haven't had any flooding issues - yet.

My initial impressions of the GreenCigs are here.

The mouthpiece part's easy, it's the inner cart that's not quite so easy after using it (and dripping it) for a while.. but then again I may be deforming them slightly chewing on 'em, or leaving them in my mouth, too..

 

[wegster]

I've got some shorter batteries ordered from premiumecigarettes.com or similar..nothing in email with respect to a tracking number yet, though, so..we'll see. :-/

I did email vaporoptions via their contact form and asked for measurements on their batteries, as it *looks* right gauging a pic next to a KR USB charger, but they also seem to only carry the one battery, so want to make sure they haven't changed it. No reply yet.

 

[Peaches]

Wegster, Vapor Options just received the Zeus in last week so I doubt they have changed it yet.

[wegster]

Got responses from both, Adam at VaporOptions said it's a 4 hole...Premiumecig said 2 hole...so, will see when they show up

Wegster, I ordered a single black battery from Adam at VaporOptions. I received it late last week, it's two holes and shorter than even my Vaporello short battery, it works great with the Greenworld cartomizers. Maybe Adam's Zeus kits are different from the single batteries.

 

[Flowersoul]

I received my Zeus kit last week also, and each of the batteries has two holes.

My initial impressions of the GreenCigs are here.

I finally got mine yesterday....I like the flavor of the original fluid...western tobacco. Vapor productions is great ....similar to a correctly filled KR carts. This is especially true when I start adding my liquids. Surprisingly the carts don;t last too long...since they are so long I would figure they would last as long as the KR carts...but not really. About a 100 puffs sounds right. Very east to refill. Funny thing is with the KR carts you can easily choke the ato...not with these.....can add a lot of liquid through the battery end. I really don;t see a point of opening them up to refill. As far as throat hit they are mellower than the KR808s....about the same as a 510...which is damn good. I have been vaping for almost 24 hours on these...I don't taste or smell anything burnt....still producing a crap load of vapor.


The only negatives....I hold ecigs in my mouth a lot and the cover of greencig carts falls apart. Also, it seems the first puff should be a long one to get the ato going....but after that...performs very well with shorter puffs. I think that is why wegster was having a lot of trouble with the greencig batteries....with a three sec cut off it will be very hard to get the ato going.
