Well, since no one seems to have just the E carts at the moment, I went ahead and pulled the trigger on a whole Echo kit from Cropduster. Ordered this afternoon and it's already been shipped. Dang, that's fast. The only problem is that ordering the whole kit has taken a big chunk out of my (very limited) budget for juice. Oh well, I'll just have to crank up the ice cream truck and sell more stock. Yes, I drive an ice cream truck.

I think that is the best deal. If you just bought 5 e-cartos it would be 25.00 and with the kit you get two great batteries and a charger for 25 more dollars.

Hi I just found the Echo-e cartos at Vape-2-Live $6.00 each and if you order 2 or more it includes shipping...I just bought 2. They also have the starter kits available. Their batteries are 1300mAh. I was going to get the kit so I would have an extra battery or 2 but couldn't part with $59 before I tried the cartos, even though I am on my last ego battery and it is a 650mAh passthrough...

Well how much is the shipping on Cropduster's site? And when will he get them back in stock? I think an extra $1 a piece for shipping is a good deal if I can get them now. I am all about instant gratification. (most of the time I look for the best deal but sometimes impulse wins)

Thanks. I thought it was...Seems like its a pretty good deal on up to 5 Cartos since he charged you $5 for shipping you are making out ok if you pay an extra $1 for up to 5 of them...and again they are in stock ;)

I bought 2 from cropduster901 and I think they came to $14.90 with shipping, so that's a better deal on 2.

Dput or Mountain Vapors had 4 for 14.00, early on. Unless he's gotten a new shipment in, I do believe he's sold out. I figured the price of the echo-e cartos would only go up when the 510 people got wind of how good they are and how long they last. So I bought 20 of the echo-e from him for 75.00 which included priority shipping. I thought it was a great deal at the time and now it looks even a better deal. Haven't tried any yet. Soon they'll be 2 for 15.00, IMO.

I got two from Johnnybass and I just plugged one of his echo-e in yesterday and I'm doing a comparison between Johnnybass's echo-e and a boge lr 2.0 on Riva and KGO 1100s, using the same juice in each. I'll do my usual tear it apart after a week of trying it out, just to see how it goes back together and how it works after that. Then I'll do a review on the results. I made sure I got echo-e cartos from each of the vendors at the time. Dput, Cropduster, and Johnnybass. So far the customer service has been excellent on all three. The best I can figure out from comparison of the three vendor's echo-e product is that they are all from the same batch at Hangsen. They are all identical comparing filler, center tube and fit and finish. I guess the biggest challenge for the vendors is to keep the stuff in stock.

if you are buying just couple cartos then yes, free shipping wins every time.
still 6 bocks for one is the priciest ive seen anywhere ( i havent looked too much).
i ordered 10 of them yesterday and paid 50 bucks. i sure hope they dont go up in price...and if they do, i will start ordering them from china, quantities of 100.
it would probably cost me $250 with shipping but i would be set for a year.

I just picked up my echo-e cartomizers from the PO (arrived yesterday from cropduster, tyvm) and I must say so far I'm impressed. I've been glued to my Reos for the past 3 weeks and only ordered these to see if I could find a use for my 5 ego-t 1000 batteries.

1st Impressions: Easy to fill, took about 30 drops (lost count and didn't overfill), vapor is plenty, taste is excellent, and while a bit cool coming from 1.5 306 attys on 3.7V Reo, I still like it very much. I don't taste the fill like I usually do with cartos. It's also rather fun using a cig shape again as opposed to a box. So far no leaks or juice in my mouth, just even smooth, flavorful vapor. You can take really deep, long hits with it, which give you a real nic rush.

The soft whistle shape mouth piece is unique, (no chambers on it thankfully) and feels good against the lips. It's strong enough to grasp it with your teeth and hold the heavy 1000 ego-T battery if you needed you hands fast, but obviously can't vape it without pressing the button. I can pretty much tell with a lighter automatic battery, you could vape handless for a while. I never did that with cigarettes so I personally don't have the need, but nice to use your mouth as a third hand to hold it. None of my ego-A, B, 510, 901, etc drip tips fit it, so it's the mouth piece or nothing. Glad I like it.

Now if the built-in atomizer holds up, it can be vaped close to dry without burning, and it lasts a long time, it's a winner in my collection for the variety and portability. I'll report back to the thread when I know more.
