newbie with questions about the cig2o...

[BILLB OKC]

i received a cig2o starter kit monday and i love it!
i WAS a smoker for 50 years, 3+ packs a day.
this thing is awesome!

What cartomizers are compatable with this unit?
can they be refilled?
what batteries are compatable?

Cig2o is a KR808D-1 two piece unit. You can refill them with any juice either dripping into the bottom or removing the cap and filling. Best advice is to fill and let them rest for 15 minutes or so before hitting them again.

batteries - any KR808D-1 style battery. I would not pay the 24.99 for their rebranded refills, many other vendors carry the same batteries for MUCH less expensive prices....nhaler, vaporkings, even V4L has awesome batteries for short $$.

This is like the 100th time I have said this: the Cig2o battery is NOT a KR808D-1.... Take one apart, the internals are different. I have bought so many 808's and they always fail, it just a matter of time.
The only think Cig2o has in common with Kanger's 808 is fitting size. and you're right about filling, since they use the same fitting you can you any 808 cartomizer. If you are looking for the lower prices on Batteries then watch VAPAGE.com they run sales all the time.

If you have automatic batteries be extra careful with refilling. I only buy soft-cap cartos for my KR808D-1 and fill them as intended, by popping the soft-cap off and adding juice to the stuffing. I blow out the center air channel to clear out any juice that slipped in there because that could end up dripping on the end of your battery, and if you have autos then that is where the drag sensor is. Take the carto off before adding juice and make sure it's not going to drip.

I get my prefilled KR808D-1 cartos at Vapor4Life and they also sell blanks. And you can get blanks elsewhere - see the Premium KR808D-1 Cartomizers at LieCigUSA.net (standard, not LR which are for fat battery models). Those are soft-caps too. And I like to use a plastic or delrin 510/901/KR808D-1 drip tip on the carto instead of the white soft-cap. Keeps your lips cool and easy to remove for adding juice.

how do these compare to other brands? I just got one today at the unimart for $11 (battery, charger and 2 cartridges). the cartridges seem to have a bit of a funny taste, but i've been using the SAFE CIG for 6 months now and have gotten used to that flavor.
I do like the idea that the cig20 can be re-filled

$11.00 for the cig2o starter kit is fricken awesome! you need to get a couple more. the bateries cost more than that!
get me a couple while your at it! i'll give ya a profit.

Vapage.com's customer service leaves A LOT to be desired. Can't recommend using them.

Is it safe to assume that the Cig2O USB charger will in fact be compatible with the Volt?

I don't know wether it is compatable or not but never make that assumption. You have to know.

LOL! Yeah, it would be nice to know for sure before I decide to order my Volt.

Judging from the post you quoted it's not.

BTW, they prefer you start a new thread instead of bumping a very old thread.
