I managed to get in on the sale at hoosier for an e-power and a couple of these duel coils. I'm vapin' one now and this thing rocks. I may have found a carto I can use besides the ce2s. I like the ce2s but I mostly drip with them and when I fill one up to be out and about I sometimes have wicking problems with them. I like relatively cool dry vapor and on the 3.7v e-power, I can hold the button about four seconds on a five second draw and these duel coils are really tasting good.

I received my order today fast shipping sent a couple extra goodies also i will buy crystal clear vaping stuff again for sure.

I ordered on Saturday and received it on Monday. Definitely super fast shipping and they threw in an extra goody in my order, too. I'll vouch for their service.

I just filled up my first dual coil. After 50 drops the juice started seeping out of the bottom. It did wick in the drops noticeably faster than the Boge cartos I've been using. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

I'll comment on the flavor after I've given it some time to break in.

They hold 75 drops. You filled too fast. Go back and add more. You might be starving the top coil.

I'm using 100% VG juice which seems to have a greater drop size. The top of the filler is still well saturated. Adding more drops results in gurgling, too. I don't think the top coil is getting starved and I'm definitely not getting any dry hits.

Ordered some Boge 510s & smoktech dual coils. On an ego battery the dual coils far out shines the Boges.

What resistance Boge 510 were you using? I'm using 2.0 Ohm. The Boge 2.0 definitely seems hotter than the Smoktech but I prefer a cooler vape. I'm still waiting for the flavor to come through to compare.

The dual coils come close in flavor. Very close. Over the life of the carto, though - the boge maintains good flavor longer. It may be the capacity difference playing a part in that. I really haven't considered total volume vaped, just flavor when it's starting to drop off or plug up.

My one and only gripe with the dual coils is QC. For me so far, I've averaged one in each box with a bad coil and one in each box that either plugs up in the first day or is only 60% filled with filler so the capacity is only about 1 ml. Even now that the price is coming down, 30% bad and 10% low capacity is annoying... but I guess I can give them the low capacity ones because I've had at least one that was filled almost to the top with filler (that one didn't last long - maybe three top offs before it plugged - but still, at least it worked right for a while and at least the low capacity ones do work).

Hey atavanhalen...I hail from Arizona now, but I had an office on Welch Rd in walled lake for years. Lived in White Lake. Nice to see the neighborhood represented on ECF.

I'm still really liking my dual coils. Probably the best carto I have used to date. I ordered a REO Grand last Friday, and will pop one of the dualies on it when it gets here. I bet that will be great!

If it isn't what I was hoping for, I will try the Boges. I have never ordered those, but have always heard good things.

Hey there man or women, sorry tryin to be pc, but anways , I grew up in walled and white lake, after 9th I moved from wolverine lake to white lk but stayed at walled lake western, class o 99.small world huh?
So you got one of the grands huh, lucky you, I want a mini so I did not try for a grand but from what I hear, it is hell to get one. I cant think of any reason they wouldnt work great on a grand, let us know how it goes. As far as the boges go, I have not used a boge carto since I began vaping 18 months ago so I do not really know what they are like nowadays, while they were better than most back then, they still were not my t hing. I do not think I am gonna find another carto that satisfies me the way these do unless of course Isaac from ikenvape decides to try his hand at dualies. fingers crossed because that would get rid of a good 90 something percent of the QC issues because he will not sell junk. I apologize for the beginning of my post being so off topic, I just get excited to see people that have a connection that is near me.

I'm using Johnson Creek 100% VG, Tennessee Cured. (may have 5% alcohol).
They hold far more than 50 drops of fluid.
Just sayin

Its not just the liquid though, it is the dropper on the bottle itself that determines the size of the drops so I dont see the point in arguing about how many drops it will take because like I said before some drops are twice as big as others. I mean if we were talking mls then I could see where discussion would come in but as it stands a lot of people will only be able to fit an undetermined amount of drops. lol I thought that last part was pretty funny. FWIW, I use all 70pg/30vg and there was no way to get 75 drops in that thing with the bottle I had, I took my sweet time one evening and then again in the morning while filling one just to make sure it is nice and soaked and was only able to get 60 into mine and to be honest that was probably at least 5 drops extra because I was flooded for several drags before it evened out.

That Swiss Dark is a total atty killer. Have you tried it on the Dual Coil? I like the flavor (at least for the 5 minutes that it works) but I'm afraid to try it again.
i had to give up on a couple of my most fave juices for that reason, very disappointing.
