So I upgraded.

[Severed1]

I've been vaping now for a month and a half and already decided it was time to upgrade. Going to a iGo from a 65mm Kr808 was the best choice I've made since I decided to quit analogs. I've been in vapor heaven since the mail came yesterday afternoon. Just now I decided to try out one of the G5 clearomizers, and after a quick little wiggle on the battery post (thank you ECF), I found out just how happy I was to have gotten this new gear. I think a clearomizer is exactly what I need to be able to see how much juice I've got left when using a battery as large as this. I'm sure I'll find some sort of issue with them, but for now there are none.

Now to order some new juice....

 

[Severed1]

BTW does anyone know of a good juice that closely resembles a Camel? I got some from nhaler, but it's not quite what I'm looking for.

Congrats on the new pv. I was temped to get an igo (and I might still get one) but decided to get the echo instead. They are very similiar but the echo is an auto while the igo is manual. You can use the 3ml echo cartos on the igo. I started with the 808 like you did and loved the vapor production. I haven't tried the clearomizers. The big battery is great on both igo and echo.

BTW gourmet vapor is having a sale (50% off) on juice through july 4th with coupon code: giveme50.

 

[Severed1]

What's the difference between the echo and igo cartos, and where can I find them? I never looked up much on the echo since I decided I wanted to have a manual battery. Any flavor recommendations from gourmet vapor?

Congrats on your new gear, sounds like a winner, tempting...... but I refuse to go to a second power strip to charge batteries. 6 different chargers are enough for me...

New juice..... on sale.... but I'm still waiting on my last shipment to arrive....

Check out the echo thread here http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/ego-type-models/189567-echo-thread.html their are a few vendors that sell them I got mine from Mountain Vapor.

I'm not into the tobacco flavors but I have tried gourmets nuport. The flavor's I like from them is the cinnabun and their blueberry muffin. I found the chocolate flavors are a little to cocoa'y for me.

I'm loving my iGo as well. There is no need to look at the echo cartos vs the iGos's - they are functionally the same. The Echo cartos have an extra hole for airflow to allow the auto battery to work, which is unnecessary for the iGo. An Echo cart will work on an iGo, but an iGo cart won't work on an Echo. At Nhaler, I think they cost the same, look the same, hold the same amount - might as well just stick with the iGo cartos.

Good choices Like any other system clearos need a bit of tweaking to get the best out of them, if you are prepared to learn this and take the time they are awesome in the flavour and vapour depts. Very cheap to run too!

 

[Severed1]

I'm definitely liking the clearomizers, but I wish they were more durable. Managed to drop one today and it broke, spilling the last of my bergamot liquid. Now I really need to place a juice order.

I have tried tons of tobacco juices from a few different vendors, and I am yet to find one that really tastes like a cigarette. One of the better ones I have had, though, is "Clint Vapewood" from Jooglerjuice.com Again, it does not taste exactly like tobacco, but I see some strong resemblances.

Ouch. I just recieved some clearos yesterday and I was thinking that it would break if I ever dropped it.

 

[Severed1]

It was attached to my igo at the time, so that was most likely the reason it broke. Had it fall off a counter at work too but managed to break the fall with my foot and no breakage even though it was the same type of flooring. If I had broken two in one day I wouldn't even consider buying them again. I'm happy to say that my igo is really durable as there are no scuffs or any marks from either of these incidents.

Clearos are easily repaired with the tube from a 3mL BD syringe, the syringe tube is tough and will last through many clearo uses.

 

[Severed1]

It's a shame that I already threw it away, but good to know for future use. At $9 for a pack of 5 they're really not that expensive. I'm thinking of getting some jumbo drippers for a warmer vape. I bet nhaler will be glad to see they're going to have a new regular customer.

 

[Stosh]

It's a shame that I already threw it away, .....

Hang your head !! I'm a pack rat, never threw away the broken bits and pieces from any atty or carto. You never know when a little plastic or silicone piece will save the day. I use a plastic Chinese take-out container, pitch it all in. Recently used a couple dead 401 attys for 510 battery connections building a mod.

Try some Turkish blend tobacco juice. Several vendors sell some good Turkish tobacco juice. Tastes like camel.

 

[JWebb]

Congrats on your new gear, some think the 55 juice is similar to camel. Lots of suppliers have it, I think Avidvapor, cignot, libertflights litecigsusa, freedonsmokeusa to name a few...good luck!

 

[Severed1]

@Stosh I normally would save everything I can since I can always see a use for something later, but being in Costco at the time, I just found the nearest trash can and pitched it in. Didn't want a pocketful of juice.

I ordered some juice from gourmetvapor yesterday. Ended up with their Best Full Flavor Tobacco blend. Sounded good at the time. Does anyone know if it takes a long to get an order shipped? Mine still says "in production" and it's bad enough I'm going to have to wait longer due to the 4th. None of the local suppliers I've found on here have a physical storefront and I don't want to run out of juice!

Sounds like Murphey's law in action, oh well

You could try making a few small sampler bottle orders from your local suppliers, see which arrives first. It would also build up your stash, then no worries about USPS or suppliers.

 

[Severed1]

I ordered a couple 30ml bottles from a local supplier. I'm hoping it'll ship today, but I'm keeping my vaping down to a minimum today to conserve. I should have plenty of juice when I get it all!
