How many atomizers? - Page 2 - e-cigarette-forum.com • The place for electronic cigarette reviews, news and chat

I've just started on Monday, so it's too early for me to say. I did just place an order for two spares, just to be safe. For the price ($9) three cost the price of a carton of analogs... if they last me two weeks (all three) I'm breaking even. Anything longer is savings.

4 days without a cigarette!

i started with two 901 atomizers and had one fail , so i stocked up on backups. I brought the dead one back to life so now i have a total of 7 working 901 atomizers... to much?

Grimm--I would not consider 7 an outrage of a backup--seems ample to me IMO---Sun

I Have been vaping since early Feb and have gone thru 4 atomizers. I think the quality of these may have had somthing to do with it(different branding?)I now rotate 5 atomizers(2 for dripping only),and have been ok for 2 weeks now,no breakdowns. I have 3 unused spares for when one goes out of the rotation.I treat them all like baseball pitchers and they produce.

yeah it's a good feeling knowing you have a backup , for your backup, for your backup, for your backup, for your backup, for your backup, for your backup

There's a poll for atomizer life-span over on
w-w-w.totallywicked-eliquid.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=439.0
so far it seems that one month is the 'average' time before death,
but the span is 1 day to 6 months.

I think I have 13 901 atomizers and 8 batteries, and a USB passthrough on the way.

I like to be prepared.

When someone was talking about a "maintenance kit", they were talking one atomizer and one batt a month (plus other stuff obviously). But if you have a few spares on hand (just in case), that would sound reasonable to me. Of course, that would be per device.
