I don't have a multimeter but from what I've read the ohms have very little deviance carto to carto.

I have a set of these babies from cdnvapor that have been going for about a month straight with no loss in vapor, TH, or flavor... I have only given two of the 5 in use a clean out. These things hold up GREAT
I picked some of these up from cdnvapor as well (thanks for the recommendation, Al!) and they're awesome! I used one of the clear ones exclusively for two weeks before the casing 'let go' from the battery end of the carto -- it was still working at that point but I accidently pulled the whole case part-way off and was then curious to unravel the coils and look it at, lol.
As others have mentioned, the vapour production is awesome in these...best I've seen so far. It's a much warmer vape than sr boge cartos (have never tried the lr boge's so can't compare) and the flavour and th are consistent from vape to vape. The only 'complaint' I have (and it really isn't even an issue for me) is that I am going through much more juice than I normally do...of course, that makes sense to me as I am getting way more vapour than I ever have with these things. Also, my battery (1300 mah) is definitely draining charge quicker than usual, probably 20-30% sooner than with sr boge cartos.
Just a head's up, I noticed that Hoosier is selling these for $2 each....but I don't know what their shipping policy/cost is for Canada. I'll be checking that out once CP get's it act together!
ETA: Shipping from Hoosierecigsupply.com is a flat rate of $11.75 to Canada!!!

I spent a week vaping on these with 3.7 and then rebuilt my 5v mod .... these cartos are much better at the latter voltage. But, any coil that is 3 - 3.2 ohms, is better at that voltage (IMHO.) These are not really "low resistance" in the traditional sense... have to think of them as "I'm vaping on two 3 ohm coils."
Get a nice set of high-drain batteries and you'll be rocking with these cartos!

Nascar how are you cleaning these? i have given one of mine a hot water shower so to speak but that was not overly effective.
Thanks in advance.
I would also know know how you clean it I just try them and find them fantastic but for cleaning???
Other then blowing them out when the black crud becomes more then apparent and the draw is harder and less vapor being produced, maybe a flush with 100%PG in a big syringe, then blowed out again with a air compressor at low psi, then refilling with ejuice.
These defiantly appear to be a disposable item and life span will be short, as reflected in the price of them, same as the other cartomizers.
The bottom coil itself continually seems to be the problem child for me, the first one to gunk up and plug the air passage every time, and after doing so so many times you cant get any vapor as the coil is caked thick enough it robs all the power and the second(upper) coil gets nothing it seems.
And low and behold, I read in another section a TRIPLE COIL soon to be released, seriously?
Likely will require a car battery to run it though.....as these little suckers drain batteries almost as fast as i can charge them.

For all those wondering how I clean them.
It is a little time consuming, but adds a couple weeks to the life of one.
A) Blow out all remaining juice that comes out
b) Run it under hot water for a few seconds
c) insert water into the hole on the battery end at a high pressure using a syringe - repeat 3 times more
d) do a final run under hot water
e) first shake out the excess water, then blow it out with your mouth
f) if you like, use a condom, and a piece of tape to hold it on the carto on the mouth piece end, and place it in the finger of a glove and whip it around your head (Let gravity pull out the excess water this way)
g) give it 24 hours to fully dry and then fill it up.
On average I get about 50-53 drops of juice in it.

I should also point out I am going to try and upload a video I made when I dissected a dead dual coil carto.
The carto in the video was only 2 weeks old on minimal usage, a somewhat bad carto in the pack. The results are surprising to say the least.Give me by the end of the weekend to pull it off my camera and upload it to youtube

If the battery drainage is real problem when using these cartos you can just snip the wire at the top (the mouth end). That will disengage the top coil. The resistance on the batteries will double but for the user its about the same experience, minus the one coil obviously.

Thanks for sharing. I just discovered the LR version this weekend and I'm in vaping heaven right now vaping on my 5V mod box.
The smoktech dual coil cartos are nice; had one last about 5 days before it got hard to draw through. When I went to run a toothpick through it to open it up again, the toothpick came back covered in black burnt gunk.
5 days is not bad, these things are pretty tasty.

5 days?? Is that the average life expectancy of cartos? This is my first experience with cartos, I've always solely used attys before.
I've used mine close to two weeks now and it's still kicking like a mule.
Knock on wood
Ive been using them for awhile now and took 3 of them after heavy use and syringe flushed them with hot water then blew the water out and let them dry for about 20hrs then set them in front of a fan for another 2hrs or so and there like new again.
