    I have an eGo that I purchased last summer. The atomizer is now getting so hot it burns my fingers and I get no vapor from it at all. I know I have to replace it but I am not sure if I should get another atomizer or go with a cartomizer. Will the 510 fit the eGo?
    Thank you for the help!

      Yes, any of the 510 threaded atomizers and cartomizers will fit the eGo, as well as those that are made for the eGo. Many of the new cartomizers are great and are probably worth a try. Thanks for visiting!

    A few years ago when I attempted tp quit analogs I purchased a greensmoke starter kit along with an extra battery and a bunch of cartomizers. I enjoyed vaping but went back to analogs. Now I’ve quit analogs again, this time for good. It has been about a month now and I had enough cartomizers left to get me through these first weeks. Now I want to continue vaping but I don’t want to reinvent the wheel here nor do I want to spend unnecessarily. My batteries work fine. Can I purchase the juice of my choice and drip it (with a syringe, I presume) into my old cartomizers? If so how long can I reuse them and where is a place to find inexpensive empty cartos? I am not opposed to buying a new system but it seems like it should be unnecessary. Am I correct in these assumptions? Advice? Thanks!

      Congratulations on your success so far. Filling cartomizers can be accomplished with a syringe or by using the cap fill method. More on that can be found in my Cartomizer Filling article. As for replacement cartomizers, from what I have found, the KR808D-2 (the 2 being an important number here) cartomizers like these from Vapor Kings should be compatible and at a much lower price.

    Hi Guys,

    Would you happen to know what kind of battery the Fifty-one Duo is. Trying to find cartos for it without having to go to them. By the way…. I just got an ego 900. I absolutely Love it!!!! But my Fifty-one still works Great! (Just wish I could get my hands on the Chocolate & Vanilla cartomizers they started with)

    Thank You for all that you do to inform the rest of us!!
    Been Vaping 3 years now.

    • Eric says:

      As far as I know, the Fifty-One Duo is a re-branded E9 or KR808D-2 model, so you can look for compatible cartomizers like these from Vapor Kings. Please note that the 2 in KR808D-2 is important, as there is also a more common KR808D-1 that is not compatible.

      Glad we can help and thanks for visiting!
