Is this considered a KR808?

My understanding of KR808s is that they are a 2 piece model: a battery and a cartomizer. I recently purchased a "Go-Go" e cig from Nhaler that is 2 piece. The battery is much larger than a standard KR808 and is 1300 mah at 3.7 volts. It uses 3 mil cartomizers.

It leaves my standard size KR808 battery + cartomizer from Vapor4Life in the dust.

Highly recommended!
 
Likewise the KR808 is a 3.7v (and 4.2 @ full charge, but drops off quick).
It matters if size is a consideration, as it is to many new purchasers. Many don't even like the longer of the 2, KR808 batteries since they consider em heavy compared to their analog real cigs.
I have 5 , KR808 batteries on call at all times but generally use 2 in a day(shorties). The small ones last throughout my entire work schedule, but just in case.... I have another small and 2 longer ones ready.
Likewise, the carto's are a full pack of cigs (by comparison). I go through at least 1 and usually 2.

Matter of taste I suppose. I do like to emulate my smoking experience.

I asked Drew at NHaler if it was an 808, but he said it's proprietary. kr808 cartos won't fit it, and the Go Go cartos won't fit a kr808. Is this your experience mischief?

The standard KR808s won't fit the Go Go, their diameter is too small.

BTW, I was looking at other models on Nhaler's site, and the Go-Go looks like the eGo battery that has been modified to accept cartomizers. The diameter of the Go-Go is about the same size as a dime.

I noticed that too. It's does look like a great PV. My problem is I'm heavily invested in 808 cartos right now, so changing to something that has to have it's own carto and has proprietary threads will have to wait.
Really glad you're loving it though :)
 
Reviews right here on this site by the "Experts" pretty well cinch it for me and I prefer the KR808D-1's . It seems to rank in the top 3 styles. Good battery size, and power, good carto's that hold a substantial amount of juice. No need for refilling, making them simple (yet I do refill with little effort), Substantial vapor.
We might have some issues with the proper carto or fluids, and try to get optimum performance out of em, but the "Format" is a GREAT setup !
I'm not into mods or monster sized things that will scare women and children. I want something the size and feel of the real thing. I'm replacing cigs and want the same experience (or as close as possible) and that doesn't include dripping filling or all the other mess that comes with it. Yeah, I fill carto's and boil out old ones, and to me it's a pain in the .... If it wasn't for the cost savings (and ability to choose a specific flavor using Johnson Creek) I wouldn't consider bothering with the process.

So the KR808D-1 works for me.

I use cartomizers on an eGo all the time .... no need to modify .... just buy 510 cartomizers :)


I've tried a couple. Not spending money on them. IMO they are far behind.. But hey things change so rapidly, they might soon catch up.. But then again, their batts are still inferior in voltage so I'm not gonna bother..

Well technically I have a Riva wich is on par with voltage. It reads 4.19 with my meter fully charged.
Never owned an eGo. And would never buy one for that very reason.
Most of the time I am using my REO Grand with a Cisco LR 306 or 510 on her.
Thats where its at. 6ml of juice and 2900mah last me all day.

The size (as I understand ) bothers me.
It is either on par with a regular cig, or it doesn't do it for me...but thats me. Especially when I am in public.
I don't mind swapping off batteries, and own 6.
May I suggest you bookmark this thread in your browser.
Then, revisit here in July (and see if you still feel that way). :)

Rivas are eGo clones. Same voltage under load. They regulate at 3.1-3.2v. No matter what the nominal voltage is (Li-Ion cell--3.7v, fully charged at 4.2v). However, when combined with appropriate resistance atomizer (2.0-2-5Ω), they deliver the same wattage as kr808 batteries with 3.0Ω+ cartos. It's all about the wattage, not the voltage alone.

Been playing with E-cigs since last july.
Still feel the same. Played with 901's 510's and these KR808D1's, which I started with. I played with the others since i like the smaller size. The KR's are actually a little large for my taste, but I deal with it for their battery capacity and carto fluid capacity. They will be my mainstay.

UPDATE: There are in fact new adapters that will be avaliable for the GO-GO out by the end of this month, specifically suited for the KR808D-1 batteries and any KR808D-1 cartomizers!

Check CigEasy for further details and official release date.

There also may be some avaliable from NHALER as well due to growing demand within the next month or so?

This is great news for KR808D-1 users as well anyone interested in using the new G0-GO 3-ml cartomizers. :)

I have personally tried these cartomizers and I am very impressed so far with their performance. The GO-GO 1300mAh battery seems to be of much more solid construction than the KR808D-1 Elegant 1300mAh that I purchased at the end of last year.

I will post a full review on this very soon!

I have an Elegant Easy XXL 1300 mah and love it. Seems pretty solid to me but you've peaked my curiosity about the Go-Go. Why do you think it is more "solid"? TIA:)
