You people are awesome

ceejay i have discovered something about my DSE901’s.....take your 901 Atomizer and grab a cotton bud *the one on the stick that you can use to clean out your ears with*

(which you shouldn't do cause you can damage your ear drums) but i do, tsk@me

anyway!, pinch the tip of the cotton bud and make sure it is flat so to get it into a small gap, now push the flat cotton bud into the edge of the thread end of the atomizer and push it in and run it around the outer circle at the battery end of the atomizer

I some times take a tooth pick type tool and lift the round ring circle type part at the battery end of the atomizer and move it about and upwards ....I think sometimes the battery end of the atomizer inside where a little ring type thing is with a black rubber ban underneather, well it can stop touching the battery when you screw the battery on and thats why you start to get very little vapor after some time goes by...this is what i have discovered anyway ....this method that i use often gets my 901's going again......works for me anyway

if you are confused at what i mean, just PM me and i will try to explain it to you a little better...

Let me know how you go

Rick--Yes--I have found many times what appeared to be another atomizer failure was in fact a connection issue and methods like this do in fact work for this issue---Thanks--Sun

Brian i was just about to throw my 901 in the bin out of complete announce, but then i grabbed a tooth pick and frustratingly giggled it into and around the hole at the Atomizer end seeing if i can do anything to get it going again, i then acidently pushed that small ring at the atomizer end upwards...not knowing that it did the trick...and abracadabra..it was working again!

Somebody needs to inform the manufactures of this seeming problem with the 901 atomizers mate, because can you imagine just how many 901’s have been thrown in the bin when it could have been saved.



Everybody get the word out about this method of fixing your 901 atomizers, might save some people there hard earned cash...
