I am beyond new but I got my Mom a Smoke Tip (2 piece) and purchased a ton of pre-filled cartridges for her a V4L. She loves it. Electronic Cigarette | Affordable, Only $59 | 100% FREE Shipping!


It might not be her forever ecig but so far so good. She's a 60+ year smoker and has had 2 analog cigs since she got it.

The only think I use is a KR8808 from Vapor4life.com and their prefilled cartridges going on three months now analog free and I have been very satisfied. The company has great customer service and fast shipping as well.

Thanks wv2win, but sorry but I'm only interested in the two piece/cartomizer technology...not interested in three piece technology...Regards, Joe

I use cartomizers (two piece) on all of my 5 volt PV's. So you get the convience of better batteries, much more consistent inhaled feel, much longer battery life, much less costly batteries plus the convience of two piece design.

...The new SS Pitbull boasts an 280mAh battery, is extremely well made, and functions well... Worth looking into, and considering for sure IMO..

Why would you settle for a small 280 mAh battery over a 900 mAh battery?

My understanding is that Smokestik is about as good as it gets for those mini-cigarette type models.

WV, there are many different vaping experiences, and not everyone is made for the 5volt one. But it's great that it is there for those who want it.

Everyone, there is value in owning a mini class ecig... and I do own several larger PV's and use them where the larger size and longer battery life are more appropriate (Own Ego, Box Mod, GGTB, homemade wooden bottom feeder).

I also have several Smokestik's and always have one in my shirt pocket at work (professional attire req) and no one knows it's there - it's great for a quick hit between meetings or in my office. Additionally the Smokestik cartos are excellent and NEVER burn, and yes I know SS are a standard 4081 thread however I have not found any 4081 carto's that compare in longevity/quality (if you found one let me know). I have 10 SS Carto's that I have been refilling for over six months, they all taste great.

I don't believe a single PV is the best for all situations.

I recommend you buy whatever you have a personal preference for...WE have already quit smoking...WE are as a general rule, tend to push everyone to the bigger & badder.

IMO the KR808D-1 is a nice analog sized, 2pc unit...lots of stuff available from different suppliers. V4L & Bloog to name just the two biggies.

Good luck!

Thanks everyone...this is some great info...Was reading on the SS Forum about dripping and messing up the lifetime warranty on the battery if any get's into the battery end...I have no experience with dripping or refilling so that kinda scares me off a little...but I'm sure if I keep reading on this forum the right way to do it without messing anything up.

Dripping is usually done on an exposed atty; so i am not sure many folks drip with a cartomizer. I have some attys and have dripped, but I vape more than I want to continually add drops. But alot of folks here mainly drip. If you think you might be interested in dripping, a three-pice might be a better option for you.

Player30, no the truth is I have no interest in the 3 piece and I don't see myself messing with dripping and dipping....LOL....I like the idea of just replacing the cartimizers using the new 2 piece technology.

Actually you can drip using a cartomizer with the filler removed see: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...f-carto-mod-kr8-atty-510-vertical-atty-3.html

I carefully pull out the filler from old cartomozers after they have been refilled to the point the draw has become hard and use them for dripping (because i am cheap and and always sure to get the last bit of life out of everything). Right now I am dripping into an old 4081 cartomizer on a 901 5V passthrough using an 901/rn4081 adapter.

But - you should not drip using an automatic battery, because automatic batteries have an opening and the liquid can get down in the opening and mess up the battery - you need to get a manual pv for dripping

rtfm is right - a single pv is not the best for every situation. A lot of people do - they buy a single type pv and stick to it (and convince themselves they have made THE BEST CHOICE - and longwindidly try to convince everyone else).

For one thing pvs are a new technology - they are changing by giant leaps - there are new innovations all the time now and so you don't want to tie yourselves into any one type or vendor
