The carts last 2 or more days actually Trog- & if you really want to keep thenicotine level going for those 2 days, a quick refill will suffice just fine- Heck- we're refilling our traditional pens anyways, plus fussing with atomizers etc. For the maount of vapor, and length of Cartridges on these loongs, it can easily go 3 months without much fuss at all for 50 carts- even longer with juast a little extra work to refill a cart once or twice to keep nic levels up

do they.. how do u know..??? would they last me two days.. ????

Loong Totem V9

"bulky smoke 3-4 times the original"... what does this mean.. "bulky" one can assumes it mean "lots"... the original.. what original.. i assume the little micky mouse ludicrously small.. contain no liquid super mini type cart..

u of course can assume what u like.. like they have the remotest chance in hell of feeding in me the 60 odd mg of nictotime i need per day..

i would not dare assume any such thing..

however if they can be topped up and made to last longer.. the ball game changes.. i simply change the cart when the atomizers needs replacing.. the running cost come right down..

If it doesn't happen, so be it. But Mixos was getting two days, not one, from a single cartridge.

yeah,but smoked for how long,and how often...theres a big difference between the odd puff and constant vaping...and IMO refilling negates the whole point of disposables Naz.

we shall see,but personally im sceptical...if something sounds too good to be true...then it probably is.

simple facts.. to quote c-cig.com the 24mg liquid is based on the classic cart of 1 ml.. its 24mg per 1 ml..

i need 60mg per day.. no way around this one.. this means i need 2.5 1 ml carts per day or 2.5 ml of 24mg liquid..

quite how easy it is to fool some people never ceases to amaze me.. allowing for wastage will the new super cart give me 3 ml of liquid per day.. answer no it wont.. end of story..

trog

ps... its goes like this.. 1 ml cart = 24mg... mini cart = half this 12mg... super mini half this agin = 6mg... new wizzbang cart =.. dunno yet but it comes down to how much liquid it holds and how much it gives up.. not bloody magic..

While it may negate the purist idea of fully disposable, one owuld htink that it wouyld be economically feasible to save money by doing just a bit of work by refilling once or twice. I'm not a purist looking for a purely throw-away product- to use it up and hcuck it once it runs dry- I simply want a product that works, and if it goesbad, then chuck it away and start another one- if I can also take a minute or two to refill a cart and stretch the time further, to save even more money- them I'm goign to want a product that can do that in addition to being disposable- it own't bother me at all to refill once or twice- I'm already doign that with atomizers from SmartFixx that only work good for a couple of days, then work poorly until they fully crap out in 2 weeks tops

do they.. how do u know..??? would they last me two days.. ????

Do I have persoanl first hand knowldge? No- All I'm goign by are the videos doen by Mixos who said it was cosntant smoking throughout the day, just as you would with real cigarettes apparently. The second day video showed hte thing stil lgoign quite strong- stronger infact than my atomizers produce after two weeks of useage.

u of course can assume what u like.. like they have the remotest chance in hell of feeding in me the 60 odd mg of nictotime i need per day..

Not assuming anything- I'm judging based on what I've been told by someoen with experience with hte thigns, and also by what I see in the videos. If Mixos didn't mean that smoking all day meant smoking liek you would if you were smoking regular cigarettes, then He can clarify for us. When he first ogt hte htignsd he said he'd been toking on htem all day and htey just wouldn't quit- but we'll wait for his clarification on htis

I would be interested to see how long the nicotine lasts as well. Yeah, the liquid may last for 24-48 hours, but whats the nicotine content like after 2, 6, 12, 24 hours, etc...

That's hwerte the refill9ng woudl coem in to jkeep the nic levels topped up- but again, this probably wouldn';t suit the purist that wants a purely htrowaway with no hassels, but really, this wouldn't bother me in the least to refill to lkeep nic levels up somewhat and hte peace of mind of knowing there's another atomizer in waiting when the current one goes out is a good hting in my opinion-

Greencig claims hteir new disposables will produce 200-250 puffs, and if their cartridges and atomizers are similar ot loong's I can see htis beign a possibility as the design seems much better than traditional cartridges- but again- we'll need to see what Mixos means by 'it smokes ofr two days' or more whether htta means the = of 20, 40, or more ciggs or what? If Greencigg does indeed give steady 200+ puffs, and is better product than loong, I certainly wouldn't mind using htem either as they too can be refilled I guess

My main goal is to have many atomizers i nthe ready, last a day or more- two would be perferable cost-wise, even if it means havign to refill once, twice or even three times- to me it's no big deal if it means savign even morem oney. Gettign a true one day's worth is ok- but two would be better- I can see that soem might want ot just smoke one, then chuck it away, as $1.80 or so per day is cheap enough, but for me, I'd liek it as cheap as possible as I unfortunately am still addicted to real ciggs and still spending about $100-$150 per month- add on another $60 and we're talkign almost $200 per month for both products- real and ecigg, that's still a bit too much for me and my budget

I must have checked out their website 10 times and that is the first time I noticed the cartridge strengths .... eeeeek 8-o


Yeah- not sure what's up with htat- I've noticed other sittes list 8 mg as 'high' too- probably it is an actual 8 mg, hope not, but if so, that is the oen big downside to the products- even the GreenCig is goign ot be 8 mg as their 'high' I beleive

The pluses= cool small mini cigg that is a powerhouse smoker and apparently a much better vapor producer than any other mini on market which will appeal to those looking for mini that mimics real cigg the closest/ it's a throwaway/ can be refilled to extend how long it lasts, wil lsave money/ Cartridges are very reasonably priced if they last a day or more/ don't have to wrry bout atomizer goign dead and being without a workign one while awaiting replacement

The negatives= possibly real low nic/ very expensive batteries/ possibly the taste/ shipping and handling price is very high/ company might be scamming people by 'forgetting' to send parts when ordered, and havign ot pay another shipping fee plus buy more products/ don't know yet how many cartridges might be dead out of a 50 pack

These are both quite strong positives, but also, quite strong negatives in my book

trog ... for reference purposes, these are the Cartridge strengths for the loongtotem ...

i know cash.. but its not the mg per cart its the mg per milliliters of liquid.. one could call it lying by omission..

the basis of the lie..

the original carts all held roughly 1 ml.. it contained one ml of say 24mg liquid.. the strength scale was vaguely correct..

with the arrival of the smaller .5 size mini cart its all a lie.. with the super mini the lie got bigger..

so what the scale really means is the cart whatever the size contains a certain strengh liquid.. it is not the level of nicotine in the cart.. its only accurate with a 1 ml classic type cart..

it does of course help to know things like this.. most of course dont ...

the cart in question dosnt look like it could contaiin 1 ml of liquid.. it might come near but i doubt it..

This whole thread would be funny if it weren't kinda lunatic. Here are guys who do not and never have owned or used a LoongTotem telling the world what it can or cannot do. On the other hand, Mixos owns one. In another thread on this forum, he's posted videos and written of his experience. No one is MAKING UP what he said he actually knows from using them. Take a look for yourselves:

YouTube - Loong Totem V9
or
YouTube - loongtotem v9 against the rest
where he compares them to other wimpy products.

Now that's information we can see and trust, since he knows what he's talking about.

Ladies and gentlemen, let's get ready to rummmmmmmmble. In the ticked-off corner, we have Ned "I got robbed" Zepellin. And in the happy camper corner, we have Mixos "Lotta vapor" video man. This much we've learned in the first moments of this fury: Ned knows where the font and bold keys are located. Mixos knows to show, not tell.

id love to order one of these to see for myself what the story is...

if it wasnt so overpriced,and you didnt have to deal directly with a chinese company,i probably would...
but it IS overpriced,and you DO have to deal directly with a chinese company-and a seemingly inept one at that...

so as far as im concerned,for the time being,thats that...good luck to anyone who decides to take the plunge.

Thanks Mixos, that helps to clarify the situation a bit. If you wouldn't mind, just going by per puff comparisons (10 puffs = 1 full cigarette ( I know that going by nicotine comparisons htis is different, and that it takes abotu 4-5 puffs to = 1 real cigg for nicotine levels, but let's just go by 1 puff of ecigg = 1 puff of real cigg vapor/smoke-wise & 10 puffs = 1 real cigg) woudl you guestimate that you puffed hte loongtotem abotu = to what you would have puffed on real ciggs for 1 pack per day? More? Less? I know hwen I first got my penstyl,e, I was puffing way more than what I would if I went out for a real cigg- I was puffing constantly all day whereas when I smoke real ciggs, I go for an hour at times between cigarettes- I don't smoke hte ecigg liek I do real ciggs, I tend to puff constantly all day instead of takign breaks between 'smoking' sessions like I do with hte real ciggs.

Second question (I know I'm beign a bit of a pain, but these are important questions if you don't mind takign hte tiem to quick answer them?) About hte drag, it looked liek in your vids that you could only drag for abotu 3-4 seconds before light started blinking- is htis abotu right? More? less?

Third- have all your cartridges so far been very consistent with the vapor on the majority of drags? Any weak hits? or Patterns of weak hits besides the battery runnign down? Did you experience anythign like Ned did with inconsitent vapor at all?

edit- questions 4 & 5 already been answered in your other thread Mixos-

sorry for all the questions- You're probably thinking 'Just buy hte durn htigns and get it over with' lol

My feeligns exactly- I've almost taken hte plunge a coupel of times already, and even got as far as to the last 'purchase now' button in hte checkout, but came here and say Miss Darcy's bad review and chickened out lol. If it just cost $100 with even $20 shipping fee, I'd have made hte purchase already, as I am VERY curious abotu how long the Carts last, how well they produce vapor, and how many actual puffs you can get from one cartridge- which I'd be mroe than happy to count just so we all knew for sure (Yes, I'm a glutton for punishement and don't mind tedious semi-irrelevent stuff liek counting actual puffs/full draws lol) Yes I'ma semi-geek lol :)
