just need advice on the next batch of new cartos to order.
Ive been told to buy the gold connection ikenvape cartos. however, there are 3 or 4 different cartos with gold connectors on ikenvape.com are the stealth atomizers good as well?
please dont mention dual coils, they burn out way too quickly.
I use a 510 connection mod. so only 510 connection cartos please.
Im looking for something that has ALOT of life. Where I can wash them over and over and use them for at least 2 months without burning the filler or wick. And without the coil dying out.
Are boge's cartos long lasting in terms of usability?
And also, what cartos are the bloog maxxfusions? They have great life and they dont heat up at all. I heard that its because the coil is far from the filler so theres no chance of it burning up and making the juice taste burnt. There might be a mechanism inside the carto that stops the filler from touching the coil but yeah, what kinda cartos are they? Im guessing that they might be boges, just in 808/801 connections.
So yep, please let me know about the gold connection ikenvape cartos, boge cartos, stealth atomizers, identity of the bloog cartos and other 510 cartos that you think has the longest life and get the most vapor, TH and flavor. I gave up on dual coils as they burn the inner second filler and make the juice taste like crap. Peaces.

Well at this point I'm still using atty's and cart's, but a buddy of mine came to me interested in e-cigs and we spent yesterday looking at different e-cigs & mods. Anyway he got himself and me an E-Power and ordered some Fluxomizer Deluxe's from GotVapes, we both liked the video of the guy trying to break one by hammering it with something and didn't hurt it. So far what I've read is that they do wick and they look like they're not that hard to refill.

Boge all the way - there have been threads like this before. The most popular for 510 threading carto ended up being Boge. Standard resistance for slim 510 (and they are fine for me on 3.7v too), and for fat battery models and mods I think the 2.0 ohm ones are favorite.

I now only use 20% or less VG in cartos and I avoid juices that leave a lot of carto-clogging flavoring sediment. but 2 months? No. I have gotten 6 weeks out of one but that was by vaping it half the time and that was exceptional. Usually I get 3-4 weeks vaping it HALF the time (the half I am vaping my KR808D-1). At that point the carto is still vapable but degraded enough that I want a new one. But I credit the long life to the juices I choose. I am on my 3rd week and the stuffing still goes white when it needs liquid. When I overfill, liquid like I put in comes out the bottom, not black gunk. Note though - I am using standard resistance.

Bloog is KR808D-1 as is Vapor4Life, Smokeless Image Volt, Halocigs G6. V4L's cartos are different from the other 3.

I've tried many cartos and found the boges to be the best but 2 months unheard of hell if i get 2-3 days I'm happy and since their only like $1.20 each no biggie to me. I do use higher vg juices though and as for burning the filler always burn them some whether its 2 hits or 100 but now I'm a HH357 atty fan pricey but you get many months of use out of them

I like Boge cartos. I use both the LR (3.7 to 4.3 volts) and SR (4.4 volts and above). IMO Smoktech 1.7 ohm single coil cartomizers are the best LR cartomizers around.

As far as dual coils burning out too quickly, I have never had that problem. I use dual coils all the time for high volt vaping and using 100% VG juice and have never gotten less than 4 days out of them (and that's slamming them at 5 to 6 volts putting through 4 mls a day). You have to keep them wet, use a tank.

2months on a carto ??? you might find one here and there that will last that long ,but don't count it..

boge are about the best for life,,,i can get up to 2 weeks on one,,i dont use high VG or dark juice,,carto killers ther

with the kangers horizontal coils,,after the filler plugs up you can pull it out and use it as a atomizer for a while too,you have to drip since there is no cartridge for that

wait a minute 2 months on a carto? with daily use? even in a tank you're pushing it. I don't understand they're a $1 a piece even if you went through 1 a week that's less then the cost of a pack of smokes, they're disposable you suppose to throw them away maybe you want an atomizer those last for 2 or 3 months.

Boges and Smoktechs are both good cartos...never used any others...these things are meant to be disposable and at less than a buck 50, just toss and replace...I feel lucky if I get 5days out of one and as far as cleaning, they NEVER perform properly after a cleaning...much less several...some of the wick type cartos like CE2 can be cleaned/repaired but they have other problems such as leaking and hitting dry...the only other type carto I know of which can be cleaned are the Echo/Echo-E cartos but, i don't know much about them either...I'll stick to my 3ohm Boges at 5v and 1.7ohm Smoktechs at 3.7v...both are solid performers and CHEAP(like me)...............

For me the 1.7 smoktech are my 'go to' carto. I have the Boge 2.0's but find them a tighter draw and seem to clog up faster then the former. Both of these on the Ego style batteries.

I get a couple weeks out of them but that's because I use several different flavors each day. But they all seem to get clogged by 20-30 ml of liquid. Not sure if cleaning is worth it. Just toss them and get new ones since they're suppose to be disposable.
