What cartos/clearos are you guys using?

[sweetmeat]

I've been vaping for a pretty long time, but can't seem to settle on the perfect delivery system. I had a good batch of stardusts from juggy that lasted me a bunch of refills, but the next batch I got all started tasting awful quickly. Ordered some kanger T3's and I'm not impressed with those either.
I decided to go back to basics and ordered some boge cartos, they taste awful by the second day
I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong with the clearomisers, when they start to taste bad I wash them out, but they never taste the same again, so my question is....

What is everyone using nowadays? Is there a great option out there that I'm missing out on? I'm about to make an order from canvape because I'm really low on cartos right now and I can't decide what to get!!!

Help please!

I've been enjoying the stardusts 2.0(V3) and the vivi nova after rewicking the coils with 1.5mm.
of cotton wicking material. Good for a couple weeks before dryburn and rewicks.

Thanks hitme! I've never rewicked a coil though any suggestions for stuff that works well out of the box?
(I know thats probably asking too much, but darnit I've been vaping since 2009, I thought the gear would be perfected by now!!!)

Sorry no experience with much else. The heads last me for months in some cases and I really
like the result, so I just quit looking for anything better.

Loving my iclear30 tanks. Just got them last week and haven't been touching my other clearos since. Check out Grimm green's review on youtube. Good luck.

I checked out his review, his PV is insanely huge! Where did you order yours from? I'm trying to stay within canada if possible.

Funny that going back to cartos left me disappointed within a couple days too, when I used to love them! I'm still having good luck with Vision Ego's, but I'm getting some Kanger varieties - T2, Evod and Protank. I like the simplicity of the T2 - sort of a jumbo Stardust style. The Evod and Protank use bottom coils which I want to try.

I got my iclear 30 tanks from Canvape. They just got the replacement heads in stock too.
No kidding about his PV....looks too much like a "marital aid" for my taste.

Hey sweetmeat, the iclear 30 works very well, as do the evods. I prefer both of them over the ProTank for flavor. I was quite surprised by the evod, I just wish it held more juice. I think the replacement heads are now in stock for both of them now too.

Hi there, try a vivi nova, there rebuildable and easy to clean etc, Canvape carries all the parts etc for them. They are my main delivery device. Come with 2 replacement heads. Enjoy.

Re the coils I simply replace them when they stop working or get to dirty, at a buck fifty each they go about a month so it's very cheap.

Thanks for the all the suggestions guys!

I have a whole bunch of stuff to try, including RBAs, but I just can't get past the iClear30 and Tribeca - all I want to do is just sit and vape it

+1 on the vivi novas. (although I found that I prefer the mini as opposed to the normal (bigger) size ones. I like the air draw better on the minis.) The heads are cheap and if you don't want to re-coil/re-build, they are cheap enough to just throw away. (I like to tinker, so I got all the stuff to rebuild them and now, i'm probably set for years on those ones.

One thing I noticed with the cartos (whether in a tank or not) is that the low resistance ones (1.2-1.5) last only a few days for the good flavor and the higher resistance ones (2.7-3.2) have a little less flavor but last longer, like 2-3 weeks.

Right now i'm using the Boges 3.0 ohms single coils. They are low cost (canvape) and they last long long time! been using them for about a month and a half now.

I'm also trying (as of today) some Smok 3.2 ohms single coils (from smoktech) they taste a bit better then the Boges, are about twice the price and so far so good. can't really tell you how long they last for me yet.

I also heard lots of good about the Ikenvape... mind you they are hard to find in stock. But i did find them at jr custom turnings. they are in the mail now and i hope to be able to test them this weekend.

that's my and Perhaps some other fine Vaper can share her/his carto experience. That would be great!


That's my personal experience and, as lots of people say: taste is subjective!

Cheers all!

I personally only vape rebuildable drippers and on occasion my genesis setup. However I did just order some EVODs for my father in law to start vaping on and I plan on running a tank through one before I give it to him so I can leave my thoughts after that.

 

[Talyon]

Vivi novas, and my protank. Need I say more, lol.

I'm going to add some Vivi Nova love. I tried the little clearos and some cartos at first but when I got the Vivi, I stopped looking. I like the regular sized one and my wife likes the Vivi Mini. They last forever and the heads are easy to clean and/or replace. I have been using the same LR head for over a month and I clean and dry burn on weekends. I vape about 3 ml per day.
