Hi again - do you have a vendor you recommend? Do I want to order Boge 4081? What does LR mean? Do I need to worry about battery volt and amps or whatever other stuff they talk about? I'm totally lost with what half of what these terms mean.
Thanks sooooo much!

I have used Liberty Flights many times and like them. There kinda a One Stop shop for e-Cigs.

LR = Low Resistance.

You sound like your new to all this so I would suggest you plug along and get the hang of things Before you try LR Cartos/Attys.

LR Cartos/Attys can give more Flavor and Vapor. They can also taste burnt with some e-liquids.

I'd work on getting some Regular Cartos that you like and get some e-liquids flavors, PG|VG ratios that are good and when you have some backup Cartos on hand, try LR or Dual Coil Cartos.

I remeber in a CE2 thread someone said that they could go 3 weeks without Dry Burning or Cleaning. Everone wanted to know what type e-Liquid the member was using and debating the Pros & Cons of VG:pG, Flavorings, Colored verses Clear e-Liquid etc for CE2 life. This went on for about 60 or 70 posts.

I bought ten xl CE2's in July. I am still using them. I vape about over 3ml a using 50pg/50vg. I use light juices and know when to refill them and if I get an off taste sometime in the future I will toss it. I don't bother to burn them. Hoever using them is another learning experience and I don't recommend them for beginners. I use them because they give me the same taste as dripping.

I should add that these are the stainless CE2's.

Hey Mookie.

The Smoove looks, looks, looks like a KR808D-1. Hopefully dormouse, one of our resident experts, chimes in to validate this. There are KR808's that look almost exactly the same but are incompatible, like the KR808D-2.

Anyhow, I find that most manufacturer's prefilled cartos are grossly advertised as lasting much longer than they actually do. An inherent problem with this is what I believe to be the "vape effect" - because vaping is so much more convenient/clean/awesome than smoking cigarettes, you simply end up doing it more. A lot more. Perhaps the cartos would last the few weeks that they claim, if you puffed it 10 times a few sessions throughout the day.

I can't testify to the Smoov-branded cartos, but I do know that there are definitely good carto manufacturers and bad ones. For instance, I started with an nJoy brand PV, & they came with RN4081 cartos that were cheaply made (plastic) and the filler tasted disgusting. I purchased some Boge 4081 cartos, & they were aluminum, much higher quality, and tasted terrific, with better filler material. If your cartos taste decent for a few days, then taste weird, then a few things could be happening. The filler could be burning prematurely (that taste never goes away once it singes), the juice could be leaving sediment on the coil, etc.

I'd say get these and you should be good. Don't forget to hit the 20% off link in the upper left, and get the 3ohm cartos so you don't burn your battery out. Boge cartos are reliable and you should be good. You can try the Smoov juice, or order from some of the other fabulous vendors.

Report back.

Are these the ones you are suggestion: Boge 808D-1 Cartomizer 3.0 Ohm?
Thanks, Jayna
