Topping Off Echos

[JimmyJet]

Good Morning Folks,

The new Echo cartos have great capacity, as well as several other good traits. I am curious how many Echo users are "topping off" before the carto is empty? If so, why? How many users are running the Echo dry before refilling?

Thanks, JJ

I have been topping mine off after the initial syringe fill. That's what I'm used to with my Boge 2.0's. I have the echo e cartos for my eGo, so they hold just a bit less liquid. I am a noobie here, but isn't it best to play it safe rather than take a chance letting it get too dry and burn?

Also, I never know when I'll have to run out of the house unexpectedly, and I want a nice full carto to take along.

I top mine off. Do I need to? Probably not, but I got into the habit on my small cartos. Better safe than sorry...

I vape mine until the vapor starts to decrease and usually get a few drops short of 3 ml on a refill. I get a few drops short of 3.5 ml on a new carto. I haven't had any burnt taste or vaped one completely dry yet.
I would be sure to remove the carto from the battery if I was topping off very often because you don't want to get any juice down in an auto battery.

Thanks for the input guys. There seems to be a common experience here. After too much aggravation with the tanks, I tried a few different cartos and found the Boge 2.0 to be the best alternative in cost/performance/convenience. Honestly I could live with Boge's for the rest of my life but I keep hoping to find that holy grail. The Echo is a fine carto but I think I will be keeping Boge's in my stash for a long time.

I am not completely sold on the echo e cartos, either. I haven't quite made up my mind whether I prefer the Boge 2.0's or the echo's. All in all, I think I prefer my 2.0's for everyday. And I like the echo-e when I am out and about and it's not convenient to top off. Not sure if I want to give up that nice warm drag and th. Here's my list. I guess everything's a trade off.
Echo e's
Pros: large capacity, good taste, good, but cooler vapor, supposedly last 100 refills, seem to be very reliable.
Cons: less th, more expensive.

Boge 2.0's
Pros: better taste IMO, better th, nice warm vapor, very reliable, less expensive.
Cons: smaller capacity, need to top off more often.

Well said Jewels. That pretty much mirrors my experience. Echo on the road, Boge at home. Actually I don't mind refilling the Boge's because I like to change flavors often.

One other thing I will add about the Boge's. Sturdiness. An eGo battery with a Boge and a cone is a very solid device.

i usually top mine off because i dont know if i all of a sudden have to run somewhere for 2 or 3 hours and i dont have to take my juice bottle along.

I am such a flavor junkie, it's ridiculous!

Same here. Oh how I wish I could taste before I buy. They never seem to taste like the photo on the website.

Hey, would anybody like to trade my ziploc full of rejects for your ziploc full of rejects?

Blue Skies, JJ

Have you checked out the Pay It Forward group? That's pretty much the idea behind it...

I'm trying to fix my reject stuff with a little diy by adding a bit more pg,vg to weaken the flavor I've got, and, depending on what's wrong with the taste, add something to improve it. I have everything I need to start some serious diy-ing.

How much ya got? What flavors, strength, company, etc... You should put your stuff in the classified and swaps, Classifieds and swaps

Thanks, yes I have checked out PIF. Already gave a kit to a wounded vet...

Mixing flavors can be great fun, especially when finding a good blend of liquids that were otherwise collecting dust.

Example, I had some cinnamon roll that was painfully strong on the cinnamon. Also had some apple that was very weak on throat hit. Mixed them together and boom, it tasted like Apple Jacks.

Hey, there's an idea for a new thread. What is your most unusual blend that ended up being a tasty vape?

Go start it. I'm willing to bet it will be one of those never-ending threads that you can't stop reading... And I can only imagine the horror stories...
