So I've been checking out different sites and sales and have purchased many cartomizers from diff suppliers. All 25 (6 diff suppliers) give off burnt taste!! They are not LR and most of them run about 3.0 ohm. The only success I have had were the 510-808 style cartos from GLV site and they work flawless.

What other Cartos are like these? that dont use the cottonish fill but use a bed sheet like filler and dont give off burning taste? I have had the worst luck finding good Carto's and Don't mind buying off GLV but when I see sales here and there i'd like to utilize them!

So far, for me, Vapor4Life's blank Coolcarts are the only cartos I can use on my GLV2 without ever having to worry about burning. (of course, you'll need an adaptor) They run at approx. 3.6 ohms, that's why. They are boge and do have the cotton polyfill with vertical wire. I just got some Smoketech dual coil mega cartos in the mail yesterday and have heard they perform beautifully on the 5V GLV2. I've been just trying to get the nerve up to try 'em!

Which supplier you usually get them from?

I get my Boge soft-tips from PureSmoker. They have the poly-fill but don't taste burnt. Unless you burn them, of course. Long-lasting, too, with most of my juices.

They seem to have a shorter lifespan with thicker liquids like Ms. T's Cinnamon Danish Banana but I get a week to ten days easily with thinner juice like TopVapor Fried Apple or FSUSA Hypnotic Mist.

If you prefer the wrapped "sheet-like stuff", I recommend IkenVape. If they're out of HV 510s, you may want to try 901s with a 901 to 510 adapter.

I've thrown just about everything at my GLV from CE XL's, to 2.0 Ohm Boge 510's, to the new Dual Coil 510. I get no burnt taste off any of them, but I also vape only my own DIY, so the issue may be some component (like sweetner etc) the the pre-mixed juices use that causues your burnt taste. The only burnt taste I ever get is when I'm not paying attention and get the carto a little too dry.
