Whats wrong with my 901?
So i got a 901 starter kit in the mail today, and im extremely disappointed.
Iv seen these thing perform a lot better, mine is just not cutting it.
I charged the batteries completely, and one of them is dead.
It wont work with either atomizer, it just wont heat the thing.
The LED comes on, but nothing else happens, no vapor, nothing.
The one that does produce vapor, produces a TINY amount.
Theres absolutely no throat hit, and it just feels weak as hell.
I thought it was maybe the carts that it came with, so I took out the polyfiber inside my blu cart(which is hitting very well in comparison) and shoved it into the 901 cart.
It gives a little more vapor now, but still about half as much as the blu.
And still no throat hit.
Given that Iv used 2 different atomizers on my only working battery, I dont think the atomizers are weak. They do get pretty hot, but not too hot to touch.
The blu doesnt get hot at all.
Iv also tried cleaning out the atomizers by blowing through them, i was able to get a few drops out of one and the other was dry so that wasnt the issue.
So is my one working battery just really weak?
Im just confused, I thought the 901 would blow the blu out of the water and so far its the exact opposite.

make sure you aren't holding your finger over the hole in the atomizer.

With out seeing the amount of vaper it is hard to tell. I can tell you that I have several e-cigs
510 gives of a ton of vaper and allows for short shallow hits but I do not get a lot of flavor.
901 takes a slow soft steady hit gives lots of flavor but so so on the vaper.
My Health E-cig is very hard to pull gives so-so flavor and so-so vaper.
Have you tried to do a slow soft draw off the 901? I know that if I have been smoking on my 510 or my Health E it takes a few draws before I get the hang of my 901.
The whole thing is really so subjective. Let me know how it is going.

This is why I tell everyone to get a manual switch PV. Sorry about your troubles. I would get in touch with the supplier.

I did get in touch with him, and I was able to get one of my 901 units working great.
It now gives a lot better vapor than the blu I have, and an actual throat hit which the blu was missing.
Im really happy with it now, but I still have 1 dead battery.
Hes going to send me another battery with a return envelope.
Its Chris @ myfreedomsmokes for referencing purposes, hes made me a happy customer.
Im still going to resort to my blu on the go, because of the PCC.
But for right now the 901 is working great as my in home device.
Now I just need a passthrough

Chris is absolutely great to work with ~ he will always do you right!! He is one who is in it for the long haul or at least that is the way he treats his customers!!
I have ordered from him 3-4 times and have a friend who orders from him, too.
Check the classifieds part of the forum for a passthrough. I got a 901 passthrough for $20 shipped, so you should be able to get one at a fairly reasonable price.
Good luck on getting the new 901 broken in good. It might take a day or two to get the atty just right. Hang in there and let us know how it goes for you!!

Thanks for the support, I smoked my last analog this morning and I honestly dont see the need to buy any more of them.
Im gunna try to work out a deal with chris if he has passthroughs available, and just have him ship me a passthrough instead of another battery, and Ill pay the difference.

He will most likely do it for you, too, so long as he has them!! Best of luck!

Damn I dont see any listed on his site at the moment.
I suppose I dont mind waiting though
