My "re-born" day was 4/10/2011. 1st e-cig purchased/Last analog smoked.

Wow. I tried to quit so many times and so many ways. Cold Turkey, patches, gum, drugs, etc...

Nothing even came close to working. Then I bought my first e-cig on a whim. For $21 I got a battery, charger, and 3 cartos. Then I bought another identical set for the spare battery. I used them faithfully till 3 days ago with no complaints.

Now I have a FS EGO and Joye EGO pass through. I am in vape heaven! I didn't really understand what I was missing.

The only thing I miss about my first e-cigs was that they used cartos instead of carts. I like the convenience of cartos much better than carts. I bought a 5 pack of 510 cartos to use with my FS EGO and they attach just fine but produce little to no vapor. I am no stranger to filling them and these are definitely full and yet they perform way south of pitiful for me.

No idea why and honestly I am so happy with the FS EGO that if I never got a carto to work it would be okey dokey by me.

I would like to give a quick shout out to mypvshop.com they are the folks that hooked me up with my FS EGO and some awesome fast shipping.

Friday night I ordered 2 more FS EGO's for my kids and they are eagerly awaiting their arrival. Right now they are using my hand me downs but the most important thing is...They are NOT smoking. Thanks ECF!

Check out the Boge 2.0 ohm cartos if you can find them in stock. Liberty Flights often has them but they're very popular so they go quick. You do need to let them sit a while after filling though, at least 30 min, maybe a full hour. I got some to try and used them after filling: got good vapor but not much else. I came back to them an hour later and got lots of vapor, massive flavor and good TH. You don't want to let them go dry and they do go through juice pretty quick, but they're very nice in my experience. I've found some flavors don't do so well at 2 ohms, fruity ones notably, but menthol and tobacco flavors really come out well.

The boge 2.0 ohm cartos are definitely good; however, (IMHO) if you really want to maximize your vaping experience then try the dual coil, 1.8 ml LR (1.5 ohms) cartos from nhaler. They hold a ton of juice and provide a nice, well-rounded vaping experience. I'm currently vaping the pomegranate VG lung juice with them and its awesome. The only downside is that the dual coils seem to burn juice faster.

I'm new to vaping as well, about three months free from nasty analogs, so I can definitely empathize with your experience.

Good luck!!

I thought I read somewhere not to use LR cartos with the EGO?

Most people agree that 2.0 ohms is fairly safe for an eGo battery, the lower you go below that, the higher the chances of burning out the MOSFET in you battery, effectively killing it. The dual coils cartos shouldn't be used on an eGo battery from every description I've read on vendor's websites, although I haven't specifically read nhalers.

Also, the lower resistance you go with your atty/carto, the faster you'll drain your battery.

This link helped me understand LR a little better:

Thanks Keith...That is exactly what I have read. I wonder if the cartos I ordered were something weird or just junk cartos. No waste though. They work fine on a friends Trio. She is loving them. It's all good!
