Cartomizer vs. Atomizer?

Tuesday, November 9, 2010 12:08:45 PM America/Los_Angeles

Cartomizer vs atomizers- which to choose? Cartomizers are a relatively new niche amongst electronic cigarettes and they carry some notable advancements compared to the old cartridge + atomizer system. With every new gadget and advancement there comes a lot of confusion and questions. Which system to prefer? When choosing your first/next electronic cigarette should you go with cartomizers or stick with atomizers and cartridges? We strongly believe that cartomizers are a handier and a more comfortable way to go.

The old atomizer + cartridge system has two separate pieces that screw together and are then screwed on to the battery. The atomizer fules the atomization process in the cartridge that contains the nicotine solution. However cartomizers are built in a way that combines the atomizer and cartridge in one piece of technology.

Some of you may be new to electronic cigarettes, and to freshly converted smokers we always reccomend to go with a product less fussier. The less you have to take care of your electronic cigarette the better...Right? Using a cartomizer only requires you to fiddle with one piece to refill your electronic cigarette. This enables you to quickly change the cartomizer, even on the go.

For those of you who are more familiar with e-cigarettes, the cartomizer offers a wider range of benefits next to quicker and easier assemble. You have probably heard and learned you can easily refill an e-cigarette cartomizer. Altgough we do not neccessarily promote refilling cartomizers, that are not ment to be refilled by manufacturer standards, we aknowledge that this is done and is quite popular.

Cartomizers are also safer as they do not overheat, whereas, when using an atomizer and a cartridge that is quite common. Althoug technology eveloves quickly overtime, a couple of years back it was a real nuisance. With the older system, you could have used the atomizer of the e-cigarette to a point that it became somewhat dangerous. As the atomizers were not meant to be replaced every so often, they frequently started to cause leakage in the cartridge. Having nicotine solution leak in your mouth, at an unexpected time, is mostdefinitely not pleasant!

Also a benefit using cartomizers over atomizer is that they offer a richer volume of smoke and more flavor so the overall vaping experience is enhanced. That has been reported by many, and we surely back it up.

So in all, that is why we see the cartomizer system as the very best way to enjoy electronic cigarettes.

Best Electronic Cigarette Review

Monday, November 8, 2010 10:20:57 AM America/Los_Angeles

We recently had a chance to collaborate with DonDaBoomVape who is an active member on www.e-cigarette-forum.com, and could be counted as one of the most authorative influencers amongst e-smokers. He agreed to review our PEP Cigarettes sarter-kit and we got an honest review.

We were quite surprised that he also managed to neatly endorse our e-cigarette to Katherine Heigl. Nice move Don!

We are grateful for the kind, and as noted, honest statements!

"The vapor is excellent: rivaling those E2s, the new-style premium Kr8 cartos, and even the 510 (although not the Cisco LR 306 attys, which are blowing me away)." DonDaBoomVape

"...vaping this thing is a very enjoyable experience" DonDaBoomVape

Thank you again Don!

Head Over Heels for Electronic Cigarettes

Monday, December 7, 2009 4:04:14 AM America/Los_Angeles

There’s nothing better than kicking back after a busy workday in your favorite café, pub or restaurant, or just cozying up at home on your favorite sofa. But wouldn’t it be infuriating if you couldn’t engage in your favorite pastime in the mean while. We all have our own pick, be it drinking a latte or reading a book or browsing the latest news. Of course drinking a latte in our favorite cafe lights us up but it wouldn’t be the same without the occasional smoke or two. Until recently you couldn’t do just that in a public place, and to be honest we felt a bit offended. Of course there were the foul smells and the filthy looks of non-smokers, but we still loved the evenings spent indulging in our favorite pastimes. And then it all came tumbling down…to be exact- the sky fell down for smokers. No smoking in public places! We cried…


Luckily all bad things come to an end and along came the electronic cigarette. Along came PEP Cigarettes. As electronic cigarettes contain no tobacco you can freely smoke indoors where it is not specifically prohibited and in all public places. We are grateful for electronic cigarettes as we can continue to smoke indoors and non-smokers are grateful for electronic cigarettes as their peace is not disturbed.


The other thing we love about the electronic cigarette is that it leaves no smells. We have got so used to the electronic cigarette that we don’t even remember what it was like when our clothes stank of smoke. As the electronic cigarette is an electronic device it does not produce any byproducts like ash and you do not end up with nasty cigarette butts. Remember, the electronic cigarette is reusable, rechargeable and green. You never need to clean an ashtray again.


We all look for ways to save a dime or two and once the electronic cigarette was readily available we discovered that you can save quite a substantial amount. The atomizers of electronic cigarettes usually cost only half of what tobacco costs. It’s quite easy math to understand that you save at least half, if not more as one atomizer is equivalent up to thirty conventional cigarettes.


Why not be head over heels for electronic cigarettes? We see no reason…we just know we love them!

Best Electronic Cigarettes - Introducing the PEP Electronic Cigarettes

Monday, November 30, 2009 1:54:10 PM America/Los_Angeles

Electronic cigarettes have been around for a couple of years and as time has gone by the market has been flooded with all sorts of products for you to buy, varying in price range, product quality, size etc. It is relatively hard to make ones way through all of the products on the market and choose the best electronic cigarette. After your fair share of sniffing around amongst different e-cigarettes you now have a choice to make friends with PEP Cigarettes. Let us walk you through all the benefits of PEP Cigarettes. Why we make the daring statement that PEP Cigarettes are the crème de la crème of electronic cigarettes? We’ll break it down to a few major points and a handful of smaller but nevertheless important ones. So you’re sure you’ve bought the best!

The market is mainly flooded with electronic cigarettes that consist of three parts. For those of you who are not already acquainted with the concept of a three part electronic cigarette, we’ll explain it. Three part electronic cigarettes consist of a battery, a cartridge and an atomizer. The cartridge that contains the nicotine fluid, screws onto the atomizer and you only change the cartridge when it runs dry… but you never change the atomizer. Imagine that…it’s like having the same toothbrush for a decade. For your own benefit you need to buy a new toothbrush every 3 months or so, as it is advisable to change your atomizer every now and then. Yes, we know….how to do that when it is clearly said that the atomizer remains the same throughout the whole use of your electronic cigarette? We’ll get to that shortly! People have reported leaking cartridges at some point or the other and this causes some major health risks like having a substantial amount of nicotine leak into your mouth. To avoid leakage of the atomizer and its overall aesthetics and hygiene there is a constant need to clean it, and that makes the use inconvenient. But electronic cigarettes are supposed to be convenient, that’s the main catch why to use them. So, after explaining the cons of the three part cigarette we’ll now move on to the pros of the two part PEP Cigarette. As the cartridge of PEP Cigarettes already has a built in atomizer, it is replaced every time the nicotine fluid inside runs dry. This makes it hygienic and convenient, simple and safe. Wouldn’t you want to reward yourself with the best experience possible? We sure do! So the idea is that you start out with a fresh new cartridge every day, and are sure you’ve been rewarded with the best electronic cigarette out there.

One of the main benefits of PEP Cigarettes over others is also the fact that you’ll save a buck or two, to say the least. Compared to conventional cigarettes, you nevertheless save, but with PEP Cigarettes compared to other e-cigarettes the gain is even bigger. One atomizer lasts as long as 30 conventional cigarettes worth and compared to other e-cigarettes it is one third more. Others on the market say to last only 20 cigarettes worth and with the fuzz and mess of the not so quality atomizers and cartridges, it just ads more inconvenience. So when your favorite pastime is spent with PEP Cigarettes and it saves you more than a dime, report back and share the sheer joy! As we do with you!

So, on with the benefits of PEP cigarettes over other e-cigarettes.  The one thing you long for is authenticity in taste and plenty of smoke puffs, right? If the e-cigarette wasn’t as similar to the real thing as it could be in its’ taste and the way you smoke it would not be worth it right? And imagine…Those of you who make smoke rings-if it was impossible. So, big volumes of smoke are essential, as we all agree. Well we’re glad to say that with PEP Cigarettes all those things are right in place. The only difference is that it’s electronic, as it is the benefit. Other electronic cigarettes on the market that we have tried and tested have not been bad, but we have not found one that has all the qualities that PEP Cigarettes capture.

There are a handful of other benefits for choosing PEP Cigarettes as your choice for best electronic cigarette. These include longer life of the battery due to new technology for detecting airflow to start the vaporization process. PEP Cigarettes also use anti-bacterial materials for the mouthpiece- safety above all others, right? And the size of PEP Cigarettes has the perfect ratio to function properly. Not the smallest on the market, as these have reported to be instable in use and not durable, and not the biggest on the market as that makes the electronic cigarette highly inconvenient to use. Ours is just the perfect size!

Hopefully and surely we have made a strong statement why PEP Electronic Cigarettes are the best electronic cigarettes.
