Looks like this is one of several products Drew brought back with him from China. He's already posted a video on Nhaler's YouTube channel and these new 'clear carts' are the first thing he previews in it. Unfortunately (expectedly?), they still have some bugs to work out on them (leakage, cracking, difficulty in filling/refilling them) but it still appears to be VERY promising.

I already saw the video - and there doesn't appear to be anything new about them in the Nhaler forums from what I can tell. I know from the video that there are some slight problems, I just want to know if they're working on fixing them or if they're just going to give up on them. Personally, I wouldn't mind trying some that AREN'T fixed - I'm so sick of burning filler and not being able to get the CE2s to work after the first couple of hits that I would gladly put up with a little leakage and a slightly difficult filling process.

It's the purity of vaping an eGo-T only in a cartomizer form (almost like dripping). Flavor is fantastic...vapor is equal to a BMF carto.

Cracks can form the first day of use (I believe these are from the pressure created when pushing down the first O ring). Juice will leak out of the cracks now and again but mostly only during refilling and only a little bit.

Refilling is a pain...there is no easy way to get the second O ring out...I made a hook out of a paperclip and have gotten pretty proficient at fishing the second O ring out but it's not easy. First attempt at this took me about 5 minutes before success.

No supplier that I know of currently sells these but I imagine some will soon.

There may be a slight revision is in the pipeline...but don't quote me on that.

Overall...they are a real pain to refill and require more refilling then other cartomizers (Holds about 20 drops, 15 less then a BMF). I have yet to refill one without getting juice on my hands. That said, I would continue to use these even though they have their faults if they were readily available.

I'll try and do a video before the weekend.

PS: from my experiences with E2 cartos...these are a much better vape.

Didn't know you got a hold on some of these.
Fantastic. Will be waiting for more news from you, and your usual "no b**t review. :)

Good update, I wonder if they could be modded w/ a syringe like the CE2's? How's the coil on the bottom, can it be dry burned when gunked up?

I need one in my modding hands! Be sure to post the video here.

The coil is horizontal like a BMF...it's encased in a surround that keeps the juice in the "Tank" from flooding the coil. It looks to be like it could be dry burned...but I'm not sure because I haven't cleaned one yet. Cleaning looks like it's going to be hard...I see no clear way to get to the coil besides through the battery hole. When I do clean one I might try shooting water up the battery hole with a syringe, hopefully it will have a power washer effect and get some gunk off.

As for modding...that's not my speciality...I'm the "limited tinkering is best" guy...but that said...it looks to me like the space between the outer plastic shell and the inner plastic casing (the one that is around the coil) is critical to the function of this.

Maybe if they made it out of stainless steel with a see through window to see the juice level, it might solve the cracking issue.

I actually thought of this...you take a standard stainless housing...cut a hole in it...put a window mounted on the inside of the carto...and then you have the best of both world.

The problem is...clear is in right now...I personally think it makes you look weird out in public using anything that is clear...but that's me.
