It's your juice. I've been using the same 2 cartos for weeks and keep thinking that maybe I need to change them but they just keep working to my satisfaction. I diy my juices and use very little flavoring and just a drop of sweetener per 10ml. I remember back when I was using a vendor's juice and was only getting one good day out of a carto. I'm much happier now. :)

I've been vaping on the same RN-4081 and KR808D-1 cartos for months, and they just won't die. They are from different vendors, some pre-filled, some blank, and I vape like a freight train. My assortment of Boge Leo attys, tanks, and cartos won't die either. I've cleaned a few...some I've boiled and some I've flushed with distilled water and a giant syringe, but THEY JUST WON'T DIE. What am I doing right? I know that they're only supposed to last for a few weeks at most, but they still hit like new.

I'm sort of getting tired of looking at the same old equipment day after day, and I really WANT to buy some new ones, but I can't justify doing so when every single one I've bought to date works flawlessly.

Why won't they die?

I used the RN4081 attys at first....they were little work horses and they lived forever. I see they haven't changed much! :laugh:

All over the place
I believe the cartos aren't getting enough heat to really get beaten up. Its like you are wearing a pair of running shoes to jog vs running cross-country on open terrain. Plus, most of the kr808d-1 batts have a pretty short cut-off, though I believe V4L has some longer cut-offs in addition to pass-thru models.

So, maybe that is it. If you were adjusting voltages or running the cartos on a big batt mod with a lot more power, they may be more inclined to give out. This is just me making a stab at it though, I am sure others would really like to have those cartos, kr808d-1 or not!:thumb:
