joe2003 Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 I was reading a thread about the rare 4081 cartomizer and it caught my interest,since I have an NPRO kit that I've been using sporadically for a couple of months now. The supplier is Discount Smokestik and they were offering to send these cartos out to a limited number of people for reviews. When I contacted them to see if any were still available I found them to be friendly and helpful folks,as they were willing to ship for free and also include a 901 adapter since my preferred carry is a DSE 905. This is a nice carto that works as well for me on the NPRO as the 4081 atty does. The vapor and strength of flavor are very close if not a bit better than the atty, and the throat hit is much better.I have to say here that the Npro isn't my favorite but it's because of the auto batts.I have a tough time using autos and I've tried 901 and 510 with the same results.I know it's me and not the batts.because my wife uses them with much better results. Since I now have an adapter I put the 4081 atty on my 905 to compare and I have to say the carto is at least as good and there are no fiddly tiny carts to deal with.The 4081 and adapter also came with a nice instruction sheet on how to refill the carto.If anyone's interested I'll have to report back on how the refilling goes since I've toked on this one all afternoon and haven't drained it yet. I do need to say here that the comparison may not be fair cause I've been using the 4081 atty on a 5VPT for ~3 weeks now and may have weakend it so that it's not at it's best on the 905:)After a couple of fills,If there is no visible burning,I will be putting 5V to this carto as well! So OK now for the carto comparison: The wrapper on the 4081 says its regular"?" 24mg.The flavor is tobacco-e with a hint of a mild nutty/fruity flavor.Not bad but not great,kinda neutral IMO.The TH is better than a 901 atty.Vapor is between the 901 and 510. Compared to a Greencig carto vanilla 16mg the vapor is close but the Greencig has a fuller smoother taste and the 4081 has better TH. Compared to a 510 carto? No contest! The 510 cartos have stronger flavor,more vapor and more TH.But I have had burn issues with the 510 after ~6 refills. I've never used a kr8 carto. My conclusion so far is that if you like your NPRO,4081 etc...this will make a great addition to your kit.No tiny carts to mess with and lasts pretty well.If you're a fan of the 4081 atty for DD like I am for the mild flavor and good TH you'll probly like the 4081 carto for the same reasons and you won't have to drip as often and can spend more time pacifier vaping. All yall know this is just IMO an YMMV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
