I and been considering ordering the new fluxomizers from got vapes, but when I went to the site, u could not order, there was no shopping cart. So I went to totally wicked and seen that they had a ce3 smokeymizer that looked like the same thing and they had more colors. So I ordered them in the green and purple. Shipping was super fast 4 days I think. I also ordered some rhubarb and custard juice. Hey, don't say eww, I happen to love rhubarb lol. :p I took one out and put a lil juice in it, took a lil vape on my tornado batt..... Very cool vapor. With a nice mouthful of juice. Not the direction I was hoping for. I was trying to replace my leaky china made ce2. So I took it off my batt and low and behold, IT WAS LEAKING TOO! So not only did I get more of the same leaking problem I already had I also took a step backward by getting cooler instead of warmer vape. :blink: my lesson learned the hard way again. That being said, I put some of the rhubarb and custard juice in my leaky ce2 and I am enjoying at least that. Will they ever make a clearomizer that actually does what it says? Or do I need to start my vape quest over....again?

The ce3 and the fluxomizers are two different animals. The ce3 is a bottom coil (cooler vapor) and according to most still leaking around the post. The new CE2 "deluxe" fluxomizer is a top coil(warmer vapor) it is not having any leaking issues in my experience. And definitely not cracking. They have since fixed the shopping cart issues that I believe started with them having to put orders on hold with the hurricane. Good luck, HTH.

I used to be a big fan of cartomizers but in the final analysis, they are my least favorite approach. Either they leak, you need a syringe to fill them, or I burn out the wick in no time leading to eliquid-on-tongue syndrome. I'm lucky in that my hubby cleans them for me upon request, but still I much prefer cartridges and tanks.

I've recently tried a few of the new Sapphires, Fluxomizers and a huge Vision XL clearomizer from Gotvapes. So far, all of them work well, no leaks. The Sapphires (bottom coil) last about 3 fillings before they need cleaning and I need some wick to do that. The big Vision (top coil)holds about 3.5+ml and it's on it's second fill after which I'll clean it (really easy) I haven't used the Flumizers much yet but, so far, no leaks.
I bought a box of top coil Vortex (for 808s) and those work great on my 808 pass through.

I just use plain Boge cartos on 510 (the most popular 510 cartos). I bought some CE3 but now I am not so thrilled to try them. On KR808D-1 I use Vapor4Life WOW cartos. I use both with clear juices that have 20% or less VG (often 20% or less). Plain stuffing cartos, no syringes, I get a week out of each.

I want a KR808-1 just so I can try Wow cartos :) Do they sell 510 cartos with that flavor?

I've bought several tanks and CE2s with no success. It is money down the drain along with expensive juice, dang it. Someone will figure it out hopefully sooner rather than later. They tell me it's pilot error when I complain but I'm not buying it. The things leak. Period. I hope there's something new at VapeFest this weekend that is the cure for the leaking blues!

Take a look over at NHaler, Drew just got some new KR8 clear mega Cartos that work very well.!

I feel your pain. I have also wasted a bunch of money trying a bunch of different ones. I'm back using atties and frankly I'm happier than ever. Sure I have to fill more often and carry around a bottle of juice. So what I carried around a lighter and packs of cigs for 30 years. Always looking for a place to ash, smelling like an ash tray. Bah, it's really not any more labor intensive to bust out a bottle every so often and top off a cart.

I also gave up on all forms of atty maintenece. I don't clean them or blow them out or anything else. I've been vaping for two years and now I am back to KISS. I keep it simple and have a lot less headaches.

Good, luck I hope you find what works for you too.


Ps. I love rhubarb too. I wonder what asparagus juice would taste like? I have both of them all over my property and I always look forward to them.
