Some carto and atty questions

[AmyB66]

Can someone explain the whole 306 and 510 difference to me. If I understand correctly the 306 fits a 510 connector, so what is the difference?

And my other question refers to the 510 blank cartos, some of my packages are labeled 510 and some are labeled 510D, does that make a difference? If so, what is the difference?

Thanks in advance!

the 306 has an exposed bridge as the 510 doesn't ...306 is shorter and in my opinion gives a warmer/hotter vape....i love the 306's and the lr 510's..,,hth..

not sure about the 510 D....someone will chime in about that..

 

[AmyB66]

Thanks deb.
I noticed there is a 306 cartomizer too, how is that different?

Silly questions but I am just trying to get caught up on some of the differences between all these accessories.

 

[debb]

not silly......lol.....

i just got the lr 306 cartos from bruce and i love em...just fill and vape....the cartos have filler that absorbs the eliquid...so i use them a lot now...i use the attys for dripping and my bottom feeders...all tho my bottom feeders are rocking these new cartos. working great..

 

[AmyB66]

Hopefully Bruce will chime in.

only difference between 510 and 306 carts are the 306's are slightly (very slightly) small diameter.

 

[AmyB66]

But they use a 510 fitting? Is it to fit a different mod or is there a pro/con thing over the 306 high performance carto vs. the 510 high performance carto?

 

[debb]

i think it depends on your preference, voltage, eliquid...i experiment with all of this to get the best flavor and vapor..

 

[AmyB66]

I understand the atty difference, someone explained that the 306 have an exposed bridge where the 510s do not and I get the LR factor.
But on the cartomizers, the ohms for the high performance are the same, and they both attach to a 510 device and this is where I am stuck at what the differences might be.

I am really happy with my 510 cartos but was curious to the differences of the 306 especially since I see it is not just an lr thing as they also come in the same 2.8-3.0 ohm range as my 510's do.

 

[debb]

i am not quite sure....except the fact that the vape is different for me for both of them...on vv the differences would be noticeable at different volts...i choose different ohms so i can use them at my preferred voltages...i am guessing that they would be the same on a 3.7...but i could be wrong....

 

[Caddyman]

yes they are the same thread style, the 306 cartos have a slightly small coil then the 510's as Bruce explained it to me, unless i hear/understood him wrong.

OK...

A 510 and a 306 share the same 510 fitting.
The 306 has an exposed bridge and really requires a drip tip.
In Low Resistance, on a 306 you get a more intense hit. Hotter vapor. Some really like this and never go back to any other atty.
510 is a great universal atomizer. It is the one most people use. Use a regular with 3.7 to 6v, a LR only on 3.7 -4v.
LR gives you 5v hit with a 3.7v battery.

Did I help at all?

Shenzhen Smok Technology lists a 510D as their new disposable PV... that may be where that came from.

Good info BB... All this time and I never bothered to check out a 306... so much stuff and so little time to vape it.

the standard boge 510 cartomizers are labeled 510D FWIW

Since the 306 cartos are slightly smaller in diameter, some folks like them better on an ego with cone attached, better/more airflow possibly? Haven't tried them, but I love the 306 attys!

The 306 has an exposed bridge and really requires a drip tip.

Just to clarify, the 306 atomizer requires a specific 306 drip tip which is different from a 510 drip tip.

 

[AmyB66]

Okay....
Thanks for answering the D, no D question.
I understand the attys more. And yes, I might give one a try since someone else who always gives good recommendations thinks they are great.
Still confused on the carto thing but now that I've actually seen an ego, I can get that explanation.

I am just as content as can be with my 510 cartos but like to stay somewhat aware of all the other stuff because I do have folks asking me about vaping all the time who don't necessarily just seek out a forum like this place. Some folks seem interested in the 'e-cigs' but not necessarily interested in a big ol mod like mine. I sure as heck tell them to stay away from free trials and those crappy overpriced prefilled things at the mall kiosks and I try and jot down stuff that is easy to use so if they do come here, they can have a start of what stuff to kind of search for and learn about since ECF can be so overwhelming to a person who knows zilch. It took me a while just to get thru the forum sections and once I realized I wanted more than just a 510 kit, I really began to feel overwhelmed.

Thanks for all the explaining.

"D" Means disposable cartomizer.

The 306 Cartomizer is a little smaller in diameter. So it holds less juice. That is about it.

 

[debb]

well, i've learned a lot ...

 

[AmyB66]

I did too. Thanks to all for answering. Its one thing to have an explanation of a product but the comparisons really help to give a better understanding.
