I've noticed that most of the Boges in my last 5 box order (bummer) is compressed farther down the tube than before. I've tried pulling it up a little, but it's tight and begins to tear.
Right now, I'm using some in house cartos from Stormy's Vapor Cellar that they procured from a manufacturer built to their specs. These things suck up juice immediately and the flavor is good. They create clouds of vapor. Stormy markets these as the SVC Cloud Maker. They are far ahead of the Boge in absorption and flavor, vapor production, and the price is about the same.
Dave that's great they are still working well. I may try them first before the ikenvapes.
