Ive got enough 901 carts left I pop off about half of the cartos I use without boiling because I noticed that if you can get them popped out (even destroying the cap) the glue comes out alot easier.. then I just use the 901 cart tip since its more comfortable to me. But yes easy to remove caps would be nice, you never know

Patiently waiting for new blanks 
I had 5 of them but that is not enough because i dont wash mine, just reuse a few times and pitch it.

I ordered one pack of these blanks over the weekend and got them yesterday ( super fast shipping, btw..thank you ).
I refill using the easy-cart-condom method and these cartomizers hold more juice than the KR808's. They hold almost a full cart condom full of liquid on the first fill up. This was surprising and I was pleased with that right off the get-go.
Vapor production is more with these cartomizers...in my opinion..very smooth flavor and i actually think it makes my juice taste stronger.
I am very pleased with these cartomizers.
Those little caps are hateful suckers, i wanted to get one off just to see the insides...i pried and pried with my little handy tool ( curtain hook w/ bend) but that sucker is on there to stay. Couldnt get it off and I was afraid i would break it..so i gave up.
Since i refill the easy way this wasnt a problem but if you refill by the regular drop method, this may be a problem.
I am extremely pleased with these cartomizers..so much so, i ordered more
Not sure if they're exactly the same or not but Belletrist says they're similar too... They're really great. I'm not thrilled with the idea that V4L or anyone else has managed to find our manufacturer but that's the nature of the e-cig business
Greyz--I'm pretty sure they're at least the same manufacturer if not exactly the same design. Externally they look exactly the same--glued on top, smaller hole in battery end, smaller notches as air vents in threading, etc & so forth. I haven't used the V4L hard caps extensively, but if they also stay cooler on the outer shell, hold more juice, and vape really consistently, then I think you'll really like the turbos. & V4L will be phasing the hard caps out entirely, apparently.
During one of the recent-ish sales over by 'dere I placed an order for all old stock (reg prefills & 5 ML juices); but one of the carto flavors I ordered several of was 'upgraded' to hard-cap premos unexpectedly. So I'm trying them even tho I hadn't intended to -- had a feeling that would happen one way or another lol...
Right I saw that they were phasing out the hard caps. Sounds like vapor nine is gonna be having my business for cartos. I love the way the hard caps perform so much better. I know some folks like the soft caps for refilling, but I use the condom refill method anyways seems to me to be the easiest/hassle free way to fill. I'm all about the performance.
I like the performance but I have to admit I like to see inside the carto when I am filling. Isn't that possible Ben? I mean without boiling water and scraping out the glue.
Ben, I got my Turbos (4 days from Florida to California--not bad) and I am very happy indeed!!! These guys are wonderful. They hold an amazing amount of juice, no gurgling, no overfill, and they perform like little champs. Vapor production is very solid and consistent. I've been vaping the same carto for two hours now and had no signs of overheating or drying up or any decrease in vapor and flavor.
Yes, they look like the hard cap premiums from another vendor, but they seem to perform better. I don't know why. Different resistance? Scott? Jazz? Drozd? Does anybody know? I can't be sure because I can only compare prefilled premiums to Turbos I just filled myself with fresh juice (and great care), so it's a little apples and oranges here. Factory filled cartos are often under- or overfilled, dry, old, etc.
Without a doubt, these are the best cartomizers I've ever met. Thanks!
Just do something about those glued-on end caps, please! They are a pain.

Not sure about all the V4L premiums...well because I havent tried em...and am not going to order anything from them til they get some consistency in their products..
I do know from what I have read and put together that Standard cartos are 3.0Ω, these turbos here are 3.1Ω on average, and some of the premiums from there (don't know which) are 2.5Ω...

ditto--i've been breaking off the turbo caps and using the soft-caps from the V4L premiums in their place, lol. but even if i couldn't do that or use a carto-condom w/ hole punched in, i'd prefer these. i'd rather have something that vapes perfectly, than something that's easy to open. i only gotta break the top off once, after all,
The resistance numbers I've seen on the V4L hardcaps are pretty similar. I'd bet these are from the same manufacturer, I don't know if the filling is tweaked, or more likely, they're 'underfilled' when prefilled since they effectively hold so much more liquid than regular cartos. I dunno, but they're fantastic and if Ben can keep blanks in stock, well. Don't tell anyone else about them.

Oh, and, Belle, don't tell anybody about your video! They may figure it out. Nice job, BTW, hat notwithstanding.

What flavors do the new Turbo Cartz come in and could you please post a link to make sure I look at the right ones?
Carolina Tobacco and Crisp Menthol. They are out of empties right now, but they are on the way--per Ben.
Nebula (KR808)
Sorry about the link. I tried to copy and paste, but it didn't work. I don't know what I did wrong, but just look for those cartos. You can't miss them.
Vapor Nine - Nebula Empty Cartridges
And just to confirm these not only work better as far as how much juice they hold and how long they last, they also solve the burning up of the filler material? my "stock" cartomizers that came with my KR both the prefilled and the blanks burn up really easily. I ordered some V4L Premiums but I'd like to try these as well when they are available.
I wouldn't be the best person to try to answer that (or to have necessarily grasped it fully myself lol), but what the heck, I'll take a stab at an elementary version of it. From what I understand: No, not exactly -- it's not that this model has solved the burning problem (or was designed with that in mind specifically); but it is better than other premiums on that count (uncertain about regulars). Less likely to do so; possibly easier to keep from doing so; seemingly less damage evident even if has done so. These achieve the enhanced vapor and flavor without using a lower resistance as other models do, which pumps up the heat and can lead to more of the related consequences.
Now maybe someone who speaks the language of this stuff will explain it better, and/or correct whatever might need to be in the above.
Oh and mpetva, here's a link to the page that includes the two flavor choices currently available in the Turbo. (Maybe Ben should add the word 'Turbo' to the descriptions, to help keep things clear.
) He may be looking to add other flavors; started a thread in here seeking flavor suggestions. Or maybe that pertained to refill juice flavors, not sure.- Status
