New V4L User - Review of Cartomizers + Vapor

[tpajames]

Hello all,

First post here so just wanted to say hello and to express how excited I am to stop paying for analog cigs (average cost of 5.00 a day). I ordered Green Smoke before finding out about V4Life, so hope I did not make a mistake, and if so, hoping to be able to utilize their return policy if not happy. Either way, looking forward to a new life as a Vapor.

Take care

I started the same way .. thinking I smoked Ultra Lights for so long .. it comes down the MG's ... It looks like you selected really low MG Carto's ... I started at 11MG's and it wasn't enough .. my sweet spot it 18Mg's and there are times I need higher ... try some higher cartos and you will be Smilin!

Thanks again everyone for your replies!

A big shoutout to MacArthurBug for your recommendations! I'll give it a go and hope that the e-juice I order produces the clouds of vapor I'm looking for!

Yeah Buddy - like others have mentioned vapor production on the V4L VK is all about the juice and how you draw on it.

I just got the VK a couple of weeks ago and I'm able to get almost as much vapor as on my eGo which is known to produce clouds and clouds. I definitely get more vapor from carts I fill myself, with PG/VG combo.

Also, the way you draw is CRUCIAL. I find you barely have to pull the vapor in to your mouth - long, sllooooowww drag, and pulling just hard enough to keep the led glowing. It's like learning a new way of smoking really...once you get the hang of it I'm SURE you will be producing good vapor...

And definitely get a manual battery!! No priming necessary and more than adequate vapor, IMO.

Best of luck!

I have tried 410, 510, 306a three piece and 2-3 different vendors KR808 cartomizers and the new 510 cartomizers. None of the cartomizers were as satisfying to me (but i do like the convenience and sure knowledge that its not an atomizer problem).

i'd say about 50% of the carts have been dried out on arrival and while they resuscitate with fresh refill juice (condom or slow drip into battery side hole) they never get up to the volume, taste and satisfaction of the three piece units. (even with the same juice)

I think i may vape in a similar manner as the original poster, multiple short drags and then inhale. Cartomizers don't seem to be designed for that sort of pattern.

they seem to work better for folks who take long slow direct inhales and while they will produce good vapor then, i like the jolt of building up the vapor in my mouth and then inhaling.

i smoked about 10-12 newports a day before i switched to vaping

you might want to try the three piece units--they give you more control esp with dripping.
