The reason I'm asking is because my boyfriend suffers from anosmia, which means he is unable to smell ANYTHING. As he can't smell, he is unable to detect that burnt smell everyone is refering to, for indicating the stopping point. So I'm wondering:
Does the vapour still have a sweet taste even when its 'dry' or 'burnt'?
Are there any other ways to identify when to stop vaping a cartomizer?
Are there any health risks are in vaping a cartomizer past its 'dry' point?

Vapor production will be reduced just before the burning starts to take place. So when your boyfriend notices a drop in vapor he needs to switch the cat or refill.

OMG, that sucks. Isn't the taste of food basically 80% derived from scent? geeeeez...

Tell him to just rotate cartos and top them off before use. I've been doing that and no burning issues so far.

I haven't reached the burnt taste ever unless it was a dud shipment... and as panda said you will notice a low vapor production...

my routine is rotate between 2 carts and at the end of the day top off....if you are a heavy heavy vapor when in doubt top off..in time you will know the right balance between vaping and topping.... at first you may top off to many times.. but as you see how many drops it takes to fill it you will know when to ease off

THAT BEING SAID
if you don't refill/top off go with pandas post hehe and toss when the vapor production drops.

Thanks for the insight everyone, I'll let him know!

Yeah :(, it's suprising how many people don't actually realise this and can't fathom that everything they consider to be "flavour" is basically just smells! That said, even though he can't smell, he's enjoying that 'cool sensation' from the menthol and has taken a liking to that sweet PG taste. It's probably about as close to smelling as he's going to get.
