To many cartos to choose from

[Thindle]

I'm using an Ego T and a 510 T system right now but I think I want to try out a cartomizer. I'm so confused by the cartomizer/clearomizer/dual coil/boge... does anyone know what will work with my equipment and maybe a simplified description of what all this means. Thank you in advance you've all been a great source of support while I try to get off normal cigarettes.

Well the boge 2.0 works perfectly with an ego battery. Very easy to fill and hold about 1 ml of juice. The dual coil cartos are great because they hold a lot more juice but many people say that it will shorten the life of your battery. One of my juices is great with the dual coil but the other juice (peach) is somewhat muted with the dual coil.

They're the only two I can give you any info on. Someone else that's an expert on cartos can help you I'm sure.

Cute dog!

Just want to add that you can't use Low Resistance cartomizers or dual coil cartomizers on your regular 510. You can use standard resistance cartomizers on your 510, but now the LR.

 

[dormouse]

Yeah no LR on 510 or any slim batteries - the power usage is too fast and can damage the electronics in a slim battery. Boge standard resistance will work on both. Anything 2.8 ohms to 3 ohms would work on both.

The Boge 2.0 has a heating element that runs vertically up through the filler material that holds your e-liquid. Many people like them because you can pry the soft cap off the mouth end and fill, and you can see your e-liquid absorbed by the filler.

On the other hand, I like and use the Joye 510 carto. The heating element is in a coil below the filler material, on the battery end of the carto. I fill a new carto with about 35 drops of my e-liquid, and refill with about 12 drops thereafter. The Joye carto is just a little longer than the Boge, so it protrudes from the cone by about an inch (vs. about a 1/2-inch for the Boge).

Either carto will work with the eGO batteries. (I use the regular 650mah batteries.) If your original kit was the eGO-T, then you may want to also purchase an eGO cone when you switch to cartos. IMO, the cone makes the eGO nicer lokking, but it also makes the draw just a little stiffer (which I like), and it also keeps juice off my hands, in the event of samll amounts of leakage.

Give cartos a try. I tried the eGO-T and it wasn't for me.

When I ordered my Ego kit it came with 5 CE2 Clearamizers but there was a problem the tubes on 3 out of the 5 in the pack were cracked a bit on the bottom and they were leaking really bad and I could only use the ones without cracks for about 3 weeks till they also cracked I bought some replacement tubes from clouds of Vapors to salvage them and I still vape on them from time to time. I love the clearamizers but they are a PITA to refill using the syringes. The Flavor of all my juices are awesome on the clearamizers but there might be times that the wick doesn't wick the juice up so you have to turn it upside down for a split second to help it wick. I also ordered some dual coil cartos but they did not perform the way I wanted and I ended giving them away to a buddy at work who loves them on his 5 volt mod. The dual cartos had good vapor but not that much throat hit or flavor for me. I then tried the boge 2ohm cartos on my Ego Battery and love them I drip about 15-20 drops and it last a long time, good throat hit, good vape and the flavors from my juices are out of this world. I used the boge cartamizers for a while before I bought the liquidnator V4.2 cartamizer AJF (automatic juice Feeder) mod from Vaporesence that uses sloted cartos to wick the juice into the cartomizer and now I get the best of both worlds a cartamizer with an 3ml tank this gives me plenty of vapor, plenty of flavor and awesome throat hit and it last me all day.

Thanks for the info guys. Just to make sure I understand correctly. If i want to use my XL 510 (280 mAH) batterys it needs to be a 2.8 or more ohms cartomizer. My Ego 680 mAH batterys can use the LR, dual coil, lower than 2.8 ohms cartomizers as well.

 

[ancient puffer]

How you got that from all those posts is beyond me, but it's absolutely correct!

 

[Illuminatu]

I personally use Boge 3.5 Ohms, but I'm vaping at 6Volts and there awesome ! They last quite long, and they clean easy, IMHO there the best carto's around, just make sure you use the right Ohms rating for your equipment and you will love them.

Thank godness for this site, I have found more info in 2 days than the 2 months I was trying to figure this out on my own. I was going to ask the same question. Thanks

Joogler has a good deal- box of boge cartos and get a free bottle of juice. Check his post in the suppliers section. First time buyers get an extra 5% discount.

Ancient Puffer, swedishfish mentioned using a boge 2.0 which I took to mean 2.0 ohms on her Ego and all the restrictions were pointed at the smaller 510 battery but not the Ego battery so I took it to mean those are fair game on the Ego. My next question would be if there is a difference in a clearomizer vs cartomizer other than the clear part and what benefit and drawback there is to a dual coil other than it may be harder on your battery.

 

[Stosh]

Regular carto has filler inside with the coil, clearo has no filler - just a wick and weak tube, dual coil have filler and two coils which makes for a hotter vape (nice for some flavors, not for others). Best way I've found is to try a pack of each and see which you like, everyone has their favorites (little like juice but not as bad)

 

[swedishfish]

Joogler and Crystal Clear vaping have both.

In my opinion cartos wick better then clearamizers. I kept my clearamizers stock but there are some videos on youtube that show ways to change things up on the clearamizers to make them wick a bit better. I didn't like the dual coils cartos on my ego. Also, sizewise from smallest to tallest would be Cartos (just right), Clearamizers (sticks out a bit) then dual coils cartos(tallest of all). Dual coil cartos will stick out of the ego battery cone alot. I would not suggest to use cleramizers, dual coil cartos or LR cartos on the 510 battery but its all good on the ego battery. I would suggest to use regular resistance cartos on the 510 battery only.

I am in the very same transition from eGo-T attys to cartomizers on my eGo-compatible e-pipe. I tried regular eGo cartomizers, Echo, dual coil clear LR cartomizers, Giantomizers CE2 version 2. Any of these work pretty good for me, better than eGo-T at least. I'd recommend to try Giantomizers CE2 Version 2. These are for eGo battery, not for 510, I guess.
