I got two of them a couple of days ago. One is at 1.8 and the other one is at 2.0 ohm.
Man, Isaac, this carto really hits the spot for me. I've had the chance to mess around with the LR901, LR510 Mega, and LR KR808 cartos and the 808 is officially my favorite carto from those three, actually my favorite carto ever at 3.7V! I really enjoy the loooooong lasting flavor between refills and it delivers an awesome TH! It really doesn't get much better in my opinion. It's a little long but I love that I get to vape between 30-40 drops of liquid before refilling, the way a carto should be. Now, if you can get this carto painted shiny black like the LR901, it would be perfect all the way around.
Btw, I'm starting to think that the quote in my signature might become a thing of the past... I've been mostly 6V-free for two and a half days... Hmmm.

V2 Gold carto (510) + 5v = win as well. I literally fell in love with every single juice I have... and then ran out of cartomizers to fill up.
Someone asked me recently if they could use the LR mega 808 on a 5 volt PT. I said I didn't think it was a good idea, but they wanted a mega, and incorrectly thought the 3 Ohm was out of stock. They ordered the 3 Ohm. Just curious though, would a 5V PT blow the LR 808 mega atty? I don't know it there is any kind of current limiting on the the V4L PT's.
You could use a LR atty on the 5v PT but it will extremely shorten the lifespan of the atty, not to mention will probably burn your lips... lol. I tried a 2ohm Boge carto on my 5v PT earlier this evening and it got too hot after one drag.
Unless the PT is connected to a wall socket capable of producing the 2A+ an LR atty requires, the atty may not pop, but there is a good chance the USB port can fry because of an over current condition. USB ports although they deliver 5V only put out 0.5A some do put out 1A, but most only put out 0.5A. In layman's terms it is akin to asking someone to run up a steep incline.
And USB 3.0 puts out 1.8a max if I remember correctly.

Rock on Vlad! That's what I want to hear! Making you fulfilled with something we have is what was one of the primary focuses..Really. Whenever we spoke, you made it apparent that You were a challenge that needed to be executed without overkilling products. I mean who else seriously enjoys 11 watts!?! 
About the 808 LR on 5V. Switcher is always deadly accurate. As Loft was saying too. The filler itself has a high risk to burn. Cartomizers need to have loose filler in certain places. This means frayed. Frayed pieces are fairly easy to burn with higher voltages when the resistance is lowered. Yo already know this, but for silent readers/inexperienced in mind. When the over all resistance is lowered on a unit. This means the actual heating element (tungsten filament) gets hotter to produce bigger feeling,flavor, and vapor production. With LR (low resistance) on higher voltage than what is recommended for the specific product, the element will disperse an extreme heat t the point where you will be inhaling these burnt frayed fibers , which can be extremely hazardous to one's health over time.

I knew it wasn't a good idea! But, after I got a couple of new people interested, one of them apparently waited too long to order, although I had warned him to get them while they were still in stock! I told him they were fine for his 808's but I would not use them on a PT. Thanks, I know more details now.
Burnt cartos are really the only health hazard I worry about with vaping. Early on I screwed up, didn't realize a carto had gone dry, and hit that sucker long and hard twice. The taste of burnt plastic was actually in my lungs, and lasted for a full day, even waking me up that night. I take NO chances anymore. Even if it's a just filled carto, if I get any plastic taste at all, it goes right into the garbage.
That is another reason I love the megas. I know if I top it off a couple of times each day, it will never have a chance to run dry. (I usually rotate 3 cartos on 3 PV's during the day) I never want to repeat that experience.

I started on a KR808 (SmokeTip) and the very first drag I took tasted like plastic. At the time, I was completely new to PV's and I figured it was normal... so I set it down and went to have an analog. Went back to it a few hours later and it tasted only like menthol... but man, that plastic taste is just gross! I am always - always - always topping off my cartos. I top off a carto just like I'm dripping. I don't have any wasted juice and the flavor never drops, and I also don't have to put in the additional care of using an atty (making sure it doesn't gunk up, storing it, etc...) and the cartos are always ready to go.
Right on Matches, don't count out getting liquid in the mouth. I believe it may very well be happening to me. For the past 2 days I been experimenting with taking puffs off of units with a piece of tissue over the drip tip, and been finding tiny spritz of liquid. Meaning 3-4 drops on a 510 atom is just too much. I believe over time, ingesting e-liquid can Not be healthy. I know exactly what you mean about plastic tips burning extremely discomforting. I actually put the drip tips away for now to use a standard plastic mouth piece with slotted vents and even that I'm keep a watchful eye on. With the rightly tuned atomizers, burning of plastic shouldn't happen anymore, but it will still be watched. If it's to any consolation, We built a 510 Mega just like the Mega 808 for 5V use. They need to be tested before anything though.
Sign me up! Or, am I already? Haha. I was also thinking of something like a dual layer plastic mesh cap that will prevent juice ingestion... but I have no way of fabricating anything like that. *shrugs*
Yeah, I have to say that burnt carto experinece was so bad I almost stopped vaping. And now... thanks Isacc, I was well, a little juice on my tongue is better than a burnt carto... and this just after I topped off and flooded a couple! I'll get it right sooner or later! That burnt carto... man, like toxic waste. I mean it was really really bad. I brushed my teeth ten times, Listerine was no help, that stuff was in my lungs. Once I get over my post traumatic shock, I might learn not to flood cartos anymore!
I'm sittin here, can't go to bed, this Japan thing. The loss of life is going to be staggering. God have mercy on Japan. What devastaion.

Japan? I'm really out of the loop here! What is happening? Going to Google.
Ouch Matches, you must've had it REAL bad! When you fill/top off a carto and it has a heavy gargling sound as if you just "know' that some is will come out the mouth piece end, grab yourself a napkin and just blow outwards lightly. This will eliminate excess juice. It may be a bit wasteful, but your getting experience and the ambition for learning in exchange. Every time I top off on a carto, I give a soft outward puff just to ensure the liquid gets away from the mouth piece as a standard.

Well, mission accomplished your Majesty! PBV all the way (PureBlissVaping)!!! At 3.7V, this carto delivers like no other, IMO.
Hey, since you are always looking to carry a wider variety of stock
what are the chances of making this exact carto with the 510 threads? Also, any plans of making it in a non-Mega version?- Status
