Trying to figure out how to use the liquid......screwed an atomized cartridege on, hits well, but not the analog flavor I was hoping for......at a loss on what to do with the liquid....
Is it for refills? Do you use it along with the factory cartridges? How do you use it?
Is there nicotne in the pre-filld cartridges? All I see on the sheet included is "you don't need to add any liquid to start" when it stops "vaping" do you then add liquid?
I'm a bit confused, think maybe the starter kits caould come with more detailed usage description.
Any help is appreciated...

I'm not familiar with the kr808, but I sometimes use cartomizers on my 510 so I'll give it a shot;

*the cartomizers come pre-filled with e-liquid. When you ordered it it should have said what mg nicotine they have (if any).

*when the quality of the vapor begins to drop off (an hour or so?) you will want to re-fill the cartomizer and/or use a new cartomizer.

*there are a couple of ways to re-fill them, I found this on youtube: YouTube - How-to guide to refilling KR808D-1 or Vapor King cartomizers

Good luck!

You'll never find an exact replica of the cig flavor because you're vaping not burning tobacco, most people are a lot happier once they accept that and find themselves enjoying the flavors better than they did cigs anyway, in fact most will try a cig after they've been vaping for a while and are horrified by the taste ;)

It's true. Although I'm not horrified by the taste (was forced to smoke when my batteries died for two days camping), it tasted about the same as I remember. I just prefer the flavor of my vapor now -- yeah, I'd be pretty mad if I ordered something and it ended up tasting like a cigarette now.

Are the one piece "atomized cartridge" I recieved considered a "cartomizer"?
I am already liking this, can definitely see looking into flavors, they sent a mint one for free along with, liked it more than I thought I would.
Would like to look into immediately ordering some vanilla, enjoy an occasional vanilla cigar.
Any reccomendations? How much $ is standard for these? Anyplace better than others? Free shipping?
Again, any help is appreciated.:unsure:

When the prefilled cartomizers on your KR no longer produce vapor, you can refill them with juice. First be sure it isn't a dead battery! You pop off the plastic end cap (use a paper clip in the hole to pry) then hold the carto on an angle so you drip the liquid onto the filler and not in the center hole. When it no longer soaks in its full. (about 15 drops) after a few refills, you can also clean them out (there are other threads to tell you how to do this) and fill with new liquid. hope this helps!

Great thanks to all.....If you start with a "tobacco" cartomizer, does it work to refill it with vanilla? Or does the taste not come out quite right? How long does a battery last on average, baefore having to buy a new one?...
Anyone able to help on place of purchase preferences? Looking to get quality /decent price and have no idea where to start.
Does everyone keep an extra battery on hand? extra cig?
I'm pretty much a Saturday Puffer, if that helps.....

I always have at LEAST four batteries and four atomizers or cartomizers at all times (good to have an extra charger too btw).

As for mixing flavors together (or adding a new flavor to something with a flavor already in it) you just have to use a little reasoning: vanilla + tobacco = yum, chocolate + coffee = yum, vanilla + strawberry = yum, coffee + strawberry = no!

I usually fade from one flavor to another like this: menthol>cherry>strawberry>vanilla>menthol

Most people keep similar kinds of flavors together and different kinds of flavors apart when they use atomizers --but for cartomizers they use one flavor for each cartomizer and tend to not mix them.

As for battery life: I don't know, but it probably depends on different factors like how much you use it and how often you charge it and, of course, what kind you have. I have two 510's and two eGo's and haven't had one die yet - but I just bought them last March.
