LR Atomizers

[harleybluz]

First of all, are they the same as the LR cartomizer? Secondly, I find they get too hot for my lips. Is there any way of using a carto or drip tip or "something on them so I don't burn my lips? I like the hit they give me but it's just way too hot for me.

A low resistance cartomizer has stuffing or batting in it. It must be kept super-wet all the time or it will singe. A LR atomizer has no stuffing and requires a drip tip. A great one is the LR306 from Cisco (Avidvaper.com) -- with a nice Delrin drip tip you can drip away without any burned lips.

buy a drip tip. It will fit both the atomizer and cartomizer. The atomizer is used for either dripping or for a cartridge that you stick into the end. A cartomizer is an atomizer/cartridge combination in one piece.

I've got some LR cartomizers that I have a similar problem with. They get too hot and burn the juice if I take a long drag. If I use them with a manual battery I push and release the button a couple of times during the draw and it works great. I think that drawing on it when the battery is off also helps wick more juice to the atomizer so it stays nice and wet. It's a cumbersome workaround but it definitely works very well.

Can I use the LR306 from Cisco on a Reo Mini? I guess I should have mentioned that. Sorry.

Wait are you putting your lips right on the bare, open atty or something? That's sure the way it sounds.

Yeah...you don't want to do that. Get a couple drip tips.

If it is a soft-cap stuffing carto like a Boge. you can remove the soft-cap and ise a plastic or delrin drip tip as a mouthpiece.

 

[harleybluz]

No I'm not. What I was/am using is actually a LR Cartomizer not an atty. It really does get too hot for me. Maybe I'm just a wimp but even my husband agrees it get pretty warm for him. But thats the LR carto.

Yes, but they are a "hot" vape. If you get them, get the XL drip tip, and read this thread: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/reos-mods/190995-how-use-306-mini.html

For cartomizers, always use a drip tip, and read this thread: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/reos-mods/195623-help-cartos-mini.html

i been running the boge lr cartos in 510..work great. CRYSTAL CLEAR VAPING has a great deal..plus free shipping and free drip tips

 

[wrigleyvillain]

Oh that makes more sense. Yeah that carto may be really low ohm (extra LR). If you don't like vaping it due to the warmth anyway I'd just ditch it altogether as it could hurt your battery. Not very likely but possible.

Actually what is your battery? Don't use LR with anything "less" than a standard eGo.

She's vaping a REO Mini, so it is a 3.7v battery.

The drip tips are great even if you're not dripping. My husband still uses prefilled carto's but I got him a drip tip and he really likes it. Those carto's can get pretty hot. You can get inexpensive ones like this. You can also get pretty ones like this. I have the chocolate cherry one!
I really like the feel of the drip tips, and they don't get hot!

I've lost a drip tip that was in one of my cartos, so now I use an empty cart. It's much less expensive to lose one of those. If you can get a hold of the mouthpiece for a CE2 cartomizer, those work even better. I know a couple of places sold those for something like .79 cents a piece.

 

[wrigleyvillain]

Yeah old carts work fine though of course you have to temporarily remove it to do the actual dripping. But I tend to do that anyway to lessen the chance any juice gets in my mouth from the walls of the tip.

I wasn't talking about dripping, although they do work just fine if you don't have a drip tip handy. I was talking about cartos. LOL!

I have started using these with my Cisco LR 1.5 306's and love them.

Same highlight as a standard 510 and DT.

Another advantage to using drip tips especially on CE2 cartos is they help prevent juice from spitting back into your mouth. Not sure why. Maybe because they are a bit longer so your mouth is farther away from the atomizer/coil. I've never burnt my lips with a drip tip.

Hey, I'm a senior member now. Woo hoo!! I wonder if that will get me senior discounts at restaurants now.

If you get a Cisco 1.5 ohm, get the XL (extra long) drip tip. Cisco's burn hot and if you don't like heat, you'll want the long tip to mitigate that somewhat.
