Hey Everyone, I'm obviously a new member so HI to ALL. Thye question I have is that I don't see a lot of people on this site with the type of e-cig I have and I was wondering if I was at the wrong site. I smoke Green Smoke E-Cigs which have the rechargable small battery to which I screw a cartomizer to the top of which has the nicotine and flavor in it. It seems like every post I've read involves e-cigs I've necer heard of and filling up with your own "juice". Does anybody on this site use E-cigs like Green Smoke or am I in the wrong place? Thanks for your time and answers........clippergear

Im kind of new too, but I think I started off with a model like you had except it was called a Q-pack. Mine was a starter enty leve type thing, and i bought some juice to refill the cartridges. I think most folks who like vaporing tend to quickly pass these up for bigger and more powerful modles. I know I id! Good luck
Thanks for the info, maybe I'll learn somthing on this site and be switching to!
Greensmoke is KR808D-2 aka E9. The only blank cartos I know of available for it are at Vaporkings.com and AZSmokeFree.com. It is incompatible thread-wise with its popular near-twin KR808D-1 but you can get a D2 to D1 adapter at LeCig.com that will let Greensmoke use KR808D-1 cartos
KR808D-1 models include V4L, standard manufacturer KR808D-1 sold by many multibrand vendors, plus the rubberized KR808D-1 threaded models at Bloogplanet, SmokelesImage, Halocigs G6
Re filling - works best if the cartomizers have a soft cap on the mouth end that you can pop out. The KR808D-1 brands I listed have soft-cap cartos (prefilled and blank)
Here is how I fill, cleanup, settle (on first fill), and keep damp 1ml cartomizers. Note - if you vape a carto so low that you singe the stuffing, that bitter taste will remain. I do not "refill" cartos - I keep them damp.
You can fill other ways - some put liquid in a carto condom can force it into the carto and that is an option if your rebrander uses hard or glued on endcaps to discourage refilling.

How I fill V4L/Volt/Bloog KR8 cartos and Boge 510 cartos
With the carto off the battery... Pop out the soft cap with an unbent paperclip in the mouth hole, very careful not to catch stuffing or the wire loop.
Shake and open the eliquid
Fill
Hold a bit of tissue on the threaded end hole (or use the carto condom spike to block the hole),tilt the carto, and add 18 drops per ml of capacity into the stuffing (Boges and most KR8 cartos are about 1ml). You may need to wait a bit for the first few to soak in, then continue. After getting the 18 in, wait 15 seconds or so then see how many more drops the carto stuffing will soak in easily.
Cleanup
Clean up the threaded end, tilt open end down into tissue, puff into threaded end to clear air channel (Boges and the KR8 cartos I use have a defined center air channel and I want to see light through that) While the carto is still open end down, touch a soft bunch of tissue to the top of the stuffing to get the loose juice - this will help prevent leaks. Or to be more thorough at trying to prevent leaks, I'll touch the bit of soft tissue to the stuffing then tilt carto down and puff in the threaded end then remove tissue.
Settle (first fill only)
Cap and let it settle - I lay it on different sides and on the ends for 15-20 minutes to make sure every bit of stuffing gets damp so I won't singe the carto. if you use thicker juice than me (I use 20% Vg or less) then you may need to wait much longer.
While vaping - any time the vapor seems light, dry, or tastes the tiniest bit off or loses flavor, or if the carto is getting abnormally warm, I add liquid. I add liquid before I leave the house, when I get home, before bed, before putting a hot freshly charged battery on it. I also occasionally look at the stuffing (especially if I've been vaping it a while) and if the top of the stuffing looks white, I add some juice.
I use a simple plastic or delrin drip tip in place of the end cap so it is easy for me to remove that to look at the stuffing or add juice. I use thin clear juices that flow easily through the stuffing to keep the coil area damp and leave the stuffing white.

haha you are in the right place clippergear. greensmoke is a great first e-cigarette. Its great to have an electric cigarette that looks like a real cigarette when you first quit. But just stick around e-cig-forum and you will quickly learn about bigger "mods" and using liquid to refil your cartomizer instead of having to buy new ones each time. VaporBomb.com or MsTsBakery.com or Momandpopvaporshop.com or even madvapes.com has good juices to buy to refil your cartomizers. 
Enjoy ECF.
Enjoy ECF.Wow, thanks for taking the time to post all that info that really helps, I'm starting to understand now. Thanks again.
Hello and welcome to ECF! You have a lot of options out there to select from. You might want to check out Vapor 4 Life. They run specials all the time, if you want an ecig that resembles a traditional cigarette. If you want more battery life, read through the forums, there is a wealth of info here. Welcome.
