hey guys, i've only dabbled with cartos in the past, and left them alone because of lack of flavor. thats pretty much what i want to solve. I need a standard size carto, (1.5") that i can use in a tank. Right now i'm using boge SR single coils. Is there anything out there that'll give better flavor??? or even better, is there an atty that works in a tank? long barrel?

I prefer Smoktech cartos myself. Ive found them to be more absorbent. I buy em from Smoktek.com.

Only atties that I know of that work in tanks are the Ego-T's with tiny little tanks or the Killer 705 rebuildable atty thats made specifically for tanks. You could try a google search on killer 705 im sure something will come up.

What Zapped recommended. :thumb:

I have also used the Smokteks. I recommend a single coil in the appropriate resistance for you voltage used.

I'm currently using either the Ikenvape Platinum or 510 Fusions, but you have to have a double super-secret password to get any. :p

A couple new options besides a cartotank are the new Killer 705 submersable atty that can be used in any cartotank and the AMP tank with is the same idea only a complete submersable atty system in its own tank. Both are pretty expensive and difficult to find, but as more are cloned these have the potential to make cartotanks obsolete.

this won't do, the reason i'm even tryin carto's is because of a pretty little mod called the billet box. looking for something standard diameter, standard length, that i can punch, drill, cut, anything :p

GotVapes has just released new cartos called Phoenix Raven.

They are filler less cartos, pre-punched with a small wick.

Supposedly, they provide much more flavor then your standard filled cartos!

GotVapes sells 'em with a tank, or you can get just the Phoenix Raven replacement cartos.

I ordered a tank and some replacement cartos, which should arrive tomorrow. If you want feedback, once I've tried 'em, let me know.

There are but three major cartomizer brands, and only two of those are major players. Boge and Smoktech. A lesser player is Kanger.

After that you have vendor websites that have one of the three major companies make a carto for them to their specification, such as Ikenvape and Gotvapes.

Your choices are limited to the above. There are brand-less or no-name cartomizers out there. If you are into the buy-by-the-batch-for-less thing to save a few bucks, that might be your thing. But if you get 20 - 40 % of those being bad cartos is it really such a great deal?

Take a look at this link http://www.smoktek.com/510-Cartomizers_c_38.html to see if they have a standard size carto that you would be interested in; there's 3 pages of cartomizers to choose from. Standard size tanks are not as common as XL length cartos, so there are fewer different carts made for them.
