It's interesting what you say about cartridges Trog. I've never had any luck with them, I prefer to drip directly onto the atomiser but I know this isn't a good thing when it leaks into switch or battery. I recently killed a couple of Janty automatic switches by getting them wet with dripping.
Do you think an atomiser or switch arrangement will be developed specifically for use without a cartridge, one where we can drip without worry of killing anything? That would be my choice, I think cartridges are fiddly, messy things and dripping is much handier. I think that would be an improvement even on the disposable atomiser idea because it would be reusable and would give flavour and strength of juice choice.
i never realized people thought the screwdriver was bigger than what it is.. here is a pic with something thats really big.. the health cigar i have just recieved.. he he
it more about shape than simple size i think.. the srewdriver is a "nice" shape.. it fits the hand..
the one in the pic is a damaged pre production one.. its the one i am smoking.. i get the left overs.. he he he
kate.. u might blame yourself for killing the device but it might simply have died anyway.. if dripping did kill it off its poor design..
but go back to rusty and his old ladies.. the chinese make things for rustys old lady they dont make things that work.. so my answer to the second part of your question would be no..
the 901 atomizer has hole thru it.. flui leaks thru this hole.. the hole is to activate the suck switch in the battery..
now the screwdriver dosnt have a suck switch.. it dosnt need the hole.. this hole is a problem fluid gets on the electrical contacts.. its not good fluid getting onto low voltage electrical contacts.. they need constant cleaning.. if u cant get at them to clean the device is dead..
problem.. we could bung the atomizer hole up with the atomizer we send out with the screwdriver but the hole will soon come back when normal ones are purchased.. but with a clean every so often the thing will keep going.. we cant really stop the need for this (every so often) clean..
if we made the atomizer in the first place we could but we aint up to making those as yet.. he he.. we are playing with the technology available..
trog
ps.. magic ned.. u beat me to it.. thanks.. your pic shows the size thing well..
hows the health e-cigar dude what do you think of it ?
he he he.. it seems to work.. it looks like cigar even tastes like one.. i plugged it in after ten minutes or so.. the charging green light went off..
it probably is as good as the ruyan 45 dollar throw away with the possibly of a bit longer life..
amusing.. not for long term use but makes more sense than the ruyan throw away.. it is a throw away but after three carts instead of just the one..
used as its intended nice.. what nicotine content the fluid is i have no idea.. but i aint gonna knock the device ..
treat it as a use the three cart then throw away device its sound... assuming some real know what u are smoking carts appear it make more sense the the real throw after one cart cigar does.. its okay..
i quite like it... he he he
i wouldnt dream of attempting to make it last longer thow.. its an extended life throw away cigar..
well i'm going to throw my two penny worth in the pot i'm fast a sleep dreaming of blue sea and white sand when i'm woke up."i've won the bidding on ebay for Trog's screwdriver" my original thoughts were, here we go again a weekend of moan, winge, moan, winge (oh sorry!! men dont do any of these things do they) ha ha.
I was not amused as you can well imagine and he still hadn't told me how much it had cost.
Friday arrived and so did the screwdriver, READY TO USE NO CHARGING BATTERIES that was a plus in itself.
Anyway there has been no moans and no wingeing but a quiet e:smoking weekend
you all know how many different e:cigs/pipes/cigars ned and i have got and have purchased over the last few months.
But in all honesty ned is usually changing his e:cig on and off all day but all i have seen him vape/smoke since friday is the screwdriver.
Trog the screwdriver is a credit to you well done my friend and good luck
I just thought I would give an update after a week of using the screwdriver as if anybody might be interested to know.
To be totally honest with you it's still performing as good as when it first arrived last week having no problems and no failures all still working like it should. The batteries are still performing for seven to eight hours and both atomisers are still working with no problems at all.
So that's it really there is no more to say apart from I am very impressed with what I have purchased and like I have said from the very beginning it simply works.
NEd how is the vapor and the throat hit on the screwdriver? I have a janty classic and a 901 e-cig. THe 901 produces ok vapor, however there is no throat kick, and I have tried lots of different e-liquids, I am waiting for the one from pillbox, hopfully this one makes my 901 better. On the other hand the janty classic makes good vapor with the manual switch and it gives u a nice throat hit. Does the screwdriver makes more vapor than this two e-cigs and does it give you a good throat kick? Well, let me know because I am interested in this device. I am assuming the screwdriver produces the same amount of vapor as the 901 since it uses the same atomizer. I do not belive a bigger battery is going to make more vapor, yea it may last longer, but that will be it. Thanks
