No need to get fiesty man.. I can tell that you are extremely frustrated, and let me tell you that honestly, your first few days of vaping can be just that. EXTREMELY frustrating. It sounds like there is not enough juice in your atomizers, and/or they still have some of the assembly lubricant in there. My advice would be to blow them out from the side that faces the battery, and then drip some type of e-liquid in there before you use it. You may be running them a bit lean and burning them out.
I am not going to lie to you and say that it is an easy or quick transition into vaping vs. smoking, but in my opinion, the benefits are more than worth the learning curve.
I do think that there are many things that need improvement, and that is part of what this forum is here to do. If you have looked at any of the posts from the past week alone, you will notice that many people are coming up with innovative and exciting new ideas and actually getting them to work.
I am sorry to hear about your misfortune, but being rude is completely uncalled for, and will get you absolutely nowhere. If you are still willing to give it another shot, please try some of our recommendations and post your results, and I am sure that many of us would be more than willing to assist (without it costing you another penny). From what I have read, nobody has tried to sell you anything, we are just trying to help.
Good luck!

Let me explain what happened when I opened the packet of 5 brand new atomizers- I opened the little white box that contains the atomizers then I took one out and screwed it into a freshly charged battery (yes the light on the battery charger went from red to green) then I attached a brand new cartridge, the first few drags were fine, nice taste in fact, better than cigarettes to me, then after the first few drags guess what no vapour, so you tell me what exactly am I doing wrong? How is this thing not working my fault exactly. It worked the first few times I tried it so obviously it isn't down to my misuse (as much as you try to tell yourself otherwise) this same thing happened with all 5 atomizers. I'm not say they don't work at all, two of them still produce vapour but only when left alone for a few hours and even then they only work for a few minutes before dying again.
And you call this a product that works.
You will say any old **** to get people to hand over their money. If anyone is reading this who has yet to buy one, my advice is to wait until they are sold in mainstream retail outlets because by then they will have to be significantly beter than a faulty prototype - which is essentially what this product now is.
Never bother me again, you waste of space.

dry cartridges
Hi
when I bought my first e-cig
I got a rn4088 super mini
similar to your purchase,
not a good starter e-cig
you seem to have made the same choice as I did based on looks, with out a good knowledge of the workings of these things.
with your kit -
you would have got --1 -- ONE ATOMIZER
and a pack of 5 cartridges
of the 50 extra cartridges I bought,
30 of them were dry.....
just the merest hint of damp oily film/
so of course I was smoking dry.....
I got the same results as you....
a bit of vapour for a puff or 2
then nothing.
I suspect that this is your problem too.
please listen to the people on this forum,
they can and will help you to master this new way of smoking and keeping your pleasure and your health.

The 901 bought this one first - it worked for about a day and was great then it stopped working even though I recharged the battery So I bought a spare battery and a pack of 5 atomizers, none of which worked for more than a few minutes at a time, with either battery.
This product is way too temperamental to be a replacement for cigarettes. I need it to work when I need a cigarette, not five hours later and only for two minutes.
The RN4082 - it worked for less than an hour then no vapour whatsoever even after the battery is fully recharged. When it did work it wasn't as good as the 901. Again way too temperamental.
I understand your frustration. There is a learning curve when using this technology but it sounds like dud batteries to me.

Real cigarettes may kill you, but at least they work.
I wouldn't say dishonesty, but perhaps some are holding back. I quit smoking on the 1st of October, since then in under 2 months I have spent about 350 - 400US dollars on devices, consumables and so on. Comparing with my personal smoking requirements, it has cost me more to esmoke than if I was smoking real cigarettes, but as Cashmere says, I'm not killing myself so in the end it's worth it. After you find a device and style/flavour that fits you, the cost will dramatically decrease I would assume.

i have pretty well tried to point out the product deficientes right from the world go.. and i have got panned and blatantly attacked for doing it..
i have also tried to get the big names to fess up as to how long their product are supposed to last and none of them have..
in fact to get a bit more disliked the product isnt really ready for the mainstream market yet.. a lot of the time the product dosnt work as it should..
right from the original one cart equals 20 cigs big lie a lot of the e cig scene is based on false promises..
but.. having said all this all this.. its all we have got and faults or not its a million times better than the alternative.. i expect to be an e smoker for many years to come..
and someone has to sell the things.. again faults or not.. the sellers on this forum are doing their best with a product that isnt quite there yet.. but that isnt their fault..
they also have to cope with less than honest sellers elsewhere.. being a genuinely up front honest seller in a world full of lying buggers aint easy..

Wait a second. Packaday was one of those that went in on the big bulk order? No wonder he is dissapointed. That explains his frustration right there. You tried to save a buck, and you got bum products.

Sudden outburst 
Bum products? They seem to stock most of the stuff others are selling?

They do often say "atomized cartridge" or similar, as though you need to assemble the molecules yourself.

that one brings back memories.. well old chap buy cheap and what do u expect.. buy a quality product like an njoy or sedansa and u wont have any problems mine has been okay for six months..
a genuine member or a makers shill.. who the hell knows..
i think we all know better now thow.. buying an (expensive) big brand name dosnt make the built in problems go away..
at least we seem to have learned something over the last six months..
