Boge 510 Cartomizers Review
Have you been thinking about trying cartomizers lately with your electronic cigarette? Maybe you already do, but you’ve been looking for a better solution?
Maybe you should give Boge 510 cartomizers a try.
I’ve been pretty lucky in getting good parts this time around, and the Boge 510 is no exception to this rule.
These cartomizers are available in low resistance (1.9-2.1ohms), standard (2.9-3.1ohms), and high. They are available from Pure Smoker for $1.50 each, come empty, and are re-fillable.
I ordered the Boge 510 because I was put off by the expense of regular atomizers, especially given the track record I have of burning them out. That’s not to say I haven’t burned out a carto or two, but it’s a much rarer occasion.
Low Resistance Boge 510 Cartomizer
Let me just start by saying… WOW.
I’ve tried a multitude of electronic cigarette products, but this was the first method I tried that really stuck.
Low resistance is not necessarily the best for all flavors, since it can have a tendency to burn some flavors, but if you use lighter colored juices, I recommend you give it a go. Just remember that LR atomizers should not be used on anything higher than 3.7v. If you’re using anything stronger, I recommend you try…
Standard Resistance Boge 510 Cartomizer
Standard resistance, for me, is a different animal. Many people start here and move on to LR, I went the opposite route.
I find that vapor production drops off a bit between LR and SR, but the SR Boge 510 is still quite nice, and really brought a sweetness out of my Firecracker flavor that I had never seen before. If you want more flavor without as much risk of burning, go with SR.
Of course, I still prefer the LR Boge 510 myself since it vapes like a king.
Use-ability
I find the cartomizers to be more convenient for me, and provide a few hours between refills. Filling them is rather simple, particularly when using the condom method or the taryn spin.
Reliability
Most retailers will tell you that cartomizers are disposable, one-time-use things. Most retailers would be right. Unless they are talking about the Boge 510 of course.
These cost me about $1.50 each, and I haven’t lost one yet due to a failure. I’ve had a couple get slightly harder to pull on after about a month of use, but still usable, especially after cleaning by soaking in alcohol.
Maintenance is a snap, and these things last. If you use a thin, light colored e-liquid, always keep the filler wet, and never burn them, they will likely last you for several months each.

Thanks for this. It had all the information I needed. Damn I’ve never heard a bad thing said about Boges, I just ordered them yesterday after going thru three atomizers in a month as a new vaper. I can’t wait to get them!!!!

Thank you for the comment.
I’m just about through my last large order of the Boge cartomizers, and my friend informs me that they have a new type of cloth-like filler in them now, and that he has had difficulties with them letting liquid into his mouth when vaping. I’ll get some of the new ones to test, and will update when I get a chance.
