Keep seeing KR808D-2 pop up now and then. Something is different or they wouldn't give it a new model number. Anyone know?
What's The Difference Between KR808D-1 and KR808D-2?

It made me wonder because sometimes you see cartos listed as fitting KR808. Ok, but which one?
I assume the old D-1, but hate to waste money and get the wrong thing.

oh if it says it will fit a kr808 then im sure it is a -D1, it would be specific to say -D2
The original kr808's are the d-1's. From what I've read, you can't mix the 2. Make sure you know which battery you have before buying parts.
From what I was told earlier in this forum, the D-2 is the kind that many mall and drug store e-cigs use. From experience I can tell you that the D-2 stuff is harder to find, so I'd stick to D-1 if you have a choice.
The d2 style cigs are an effort of corrupt companies at proprietary bull$&*%.... Think the Apple corp of the e cig world. Open source is always the right answer! 
so steer clear of such nonsense.

A friend of mine has the E-CIG from the mall and I have a KR808D-1. He tried putting one of my cartos on his but it didn't quite work. Do you think he has a D-2. I would sure save him money if he could get cartos from somewhere besides the mall. And yeah, I told him was wasting money but he didn't care.
Haywood Jakissme (sir or Ms.?) the kr808d-1 and d-2 are very different in some aspects and similar in others. Both are male connections, both run at 4.2v hot off the charger (gen 1 kr808's, not gen 2 which runs at 3.6v regulated), both are 2 piece by nature (as in carto and batt, not cart, atty, and batt, though on 808d-1 you can use 901 atty's). The e9 though (other name for d-2) doesn't last as long, doesn't charge as fast, has less carto options, and is used by a number of companies that heavily mark it up (as in as much as $50 a batt). Hope this helps...
Don't assume his mall e-cig is an 808D-2 just because it doesn't fit the KR808-D-1 stuff. It could be entirely different. If it's a Smoke51 Trio, for instance, it'll take 510 cartos. It's hard to match those little mall kiosk e-cigs to anything. If you knew the brand, we could maybe help find what cheaper cartos would match up with it.
I noticed on Kanger's web site they listed a few D-2 items and never could understand why they'd fiddle with the old D-1.
Now it's all starting to make sense. If you're in the rip-off business you can lock customers into the more proprietary threading.
By the way JC, just drove through Tulsa a few weeks back and the temperature outside was 114. Stopped to fill up and it hurt.

The weird thing is, if you look around, there are a few sites that sell D2 accessories at a reasonable price. The D2s are also known as E9. There are adapters that will let you connect to KR808D-1 batteries and accessories. But, the E9s are generally known for having more vapor than flavor and having crappy battery life.
