about a month into using my 510 , now I want to try a Cartomizer, I looked on Liberty-Flights and saw some basic 510 cartomizers, also Joye 510 cartomizers, and Boge cartomizers,,Which type do I get for my 510 ? Not sure if mine is a joye, I think its a Titan 510 - I am confused about the battery compatability of adding a cartomizer to my 510,,will the basic 510 cart work OK ? I read about 2.0 ohm or mah ,I guess my battery is a wimpy one ? and what cart will work best? THANK YOU

The last poster is correct. Just make sure they say 510. In batteries and atomizers, cartomizers it is the threads that count.(what screws into the battery.) 2.0 mah is considered a LR (low resistance) and will produce a hotter vaping experience plus an easier draw(less resistance) but will also cut down on battery time(have to charge battery more often.). I suggest a 2.5 and/or up to 3.0 in a cartomizer.
Hope this helps. And liberty-flights is a great company to buy hardware from.

For a 510 you get standard reisistance 510 cartomizers. I recommend the Boge 510 soft-cap ones for your first cartos (not the LR ones which can fry the internal switches of a standard 510 battery - you want standard). I get mine at LiteCigUSA.net

I recommend the Boges to start because they are good quality simple stuffing-type cartos, there is no tricky internal seal, and I get good vapor and longevity out of them. I have gotten a month out of one, using it 1/2 the time (I alternate 2 cartos during the day). I did have to straighten the air channel so I could see light through it a couple of times in the last 2 weeks but it worked well.

After you have tried them, you could consider other stuffing cartos or some reservoir-type cartos that require a particular kind of syringe to fill (and that includes the Joye cartos I saw - they were a special reservoir style and needed a syringe)

Depends on your preference. Prefilled cartomizers are available on some vendors sites. Most vapers prefer to get the ejuice in bottles and fill their own. V4life has pre-filled cartomizers(but you would need an adapter -510-901/808D adapter - in order to use theirs). If you buy empty cartomizers then you would want to get the ejuice. both have a lot of different types of flavors. Just a matter of choice. One factor is when you buy ejuice from usa vendors you know that the ingredients are usp pure. some pre-filled ones- not so sure they don't all come from china(where there is no regulation).
