does V4L even sell those anymore? i thought all their cartos were soft caps.

They are still available as pre-filled in some flavors (Premium Kant). I buy them, vape them, and refill with juice....then drop them in a box. I figure they will be gone eventually, and I will have to start washing all those spent ones. After that....I guess I am screwed....

im sure there will be better stuff to use in the future.

Also the premium tobacco sampler are the hard caps...dunhall,555,ry4,kant,hilton.

i guess i have had those. they work well, but i still think i get more vapor out of the newer cartos.

Oh yeah....it does seem like since the hard-tops are getting phased out, they are dirt cheap right now. I just snagged 7 boxes at a great sale price and got to also take of 20% for the graduation sale. Have to stockpile both hard-tops and classic Kant flavor....since both are about to be extinct. If they take away my favorite batteries, the only favorite left...I might have to go buy a carton of real butts. ;)

For me....it's all about replicating smoking. That means taste, feel and any psycholigical aspects. To that end, it's the new auto shorties with a hard-top premium carto. I even get white batteries with orange LEDs to help ........ myself. Once you get the threads worn down a bit on these shorties (they are too rough from the factory) and get a tight carto fit, they are great.

The Wow Doc Pepper is a disappointment compared to the Premium Doc Pepper. I just found one of the older white Premium Doc Pepper carts in my stash and I have to say that there is a big difference in taste, vapor, and TH.

EDIT: I just noticed my last few posts have been carping about the 'loss' of the white labeled Doc Pepper. I promise to stop, I swear. Totally.

Wow Doc Pepper ?? I've never seen it listed on the site... In carts or juice.. I order about 2 30ml bottles of the Premium Doc Pepper per month and always look for it..

Where is it?

Oh, and by the way, the older hardcap white Premium Doc Pepper carts where the best carts I've ever had. I swear, the last 2 carts I had of them were refilled close to 200 times each before I finally put them down.
 

Stoked!

I only buy cools because they are the only carto that I've found that work well @6v. I find that all other cartos burn the juice after just a few drags at 6v.

I do not find any satisfaction with cool carts at 3.7v. I never feel like I get a "full drag"/"satisfying drag" off of them.

Ever since premiums came out I have been truly devoted!! They are sooooo absorbent and low maintenance compared to all other methods of vaping including all cartos and all attys, IMO!!

VAPE ON!!!

My bad, I meant the Cool Carts Doc Pepper, the current premium.
I agree with you, I wish I would have saved all my white Doc Pepper carts, I found two in my stash that I will definitely be reusing.

cool carts are way better at HV.

Yar. Since starting the poll I've been comparing Prems and Cools by filling new blanks with the same flavors and going head to head. Usually I'm so carto-conservative I would never fill a cart I wasn't ready to use to death, but in the interest of the poll I guess its okay. What I'm finding is...

The Premiums are kind of like a LR atomizer - they do a better job of boosting performance, especially at lower voltages. At 3.7 and 5 volts the Premiums definitely out perform the Cool Carts in terms of vapor. They really suck up the juice though and they are more prone to over-heating. On vapor/flavor/TH performance alone though, particularly at normal/lower voltages, the Premiums are easily the winner.

The Cool Carts are kind of like a HV atomizer - they perform great and stay cooler at 5 to 6+ volts (and not bad at all at 3.7, just hit or miss sometimes). I think that the Cool Carts will probably last a lot longer at higher voltage, and probably even at lower voltage, than the Premiums just because with the reduced heat they'd be less prone to getting some of the insides burned which, 99% of the time, is the factor that kills a cartos performance.

At 3.7 volts I would definitely go with Premiums and at 6+ volts I would definitely go with Cool Carts. But for me, I usually vape around 5 volts and so its almost a wash. Both perform great at 5 volts and if I go with a Premium I get an extra performance boost, or if I go with a Cool Cart I get a longer-lived cartomizer.

*******
It's awesome to have V4L carrying both, I'll definitely be buying both.

I checked out your sig link and the myspace page for Dead Town Revival. Cool sound.

Maybe you could get the front man to pose with an e-cig instead of an analog. Wait, what I'm I thinking :facepalm:? You can't look hardcore with an e-cig I guess, just ain't gonna work.

Thanks!
The band are all heavy smokers, and I was as well. I've given them batteries and cartos and they've tried them, but I don't think they are ready to move to vaping yet...

I like & use both, depending on juice & voltage.

With the 3.7 standard battery, I really like the premium cartos. It's like high voltage vaping with the stock battery. But, I never use the premiums above 3.7.

I use the coolcarts at all voltages. Some flavors seem to get lost with high voltage, & those are the ones I use the coolcarts on 3.7 batts. But if I'm using the PT at 5 v. or a higher voltage mod, it's the coolcarts (or even some of the old regulars) that I use.
