save your money and buy a screwdriver

[rmasu]

I just got my screwdriver from trog, this ends my quest for the perfect ecig.
I have bought the following
1. cheap chinese 102 or something, didn't work too good
2. smoking everywhere
3. nro njoy
4. Janty Kiss Box
5. 801
6. pilot and 402
7. 901
8. screwdriver.

The screwdriver is in a league of its own, the others are OK, but for serious e-smoking the screwdriver is the only way to go, Not very discrete, but at home or car or private office etc. It's simply amazing.
I realize it's just a 901 atomizer on a big battery, but it really is beautiful to hold. I keep a few 901 batts charged to be more portable, but the screw driver really is nice I highly suggest one.

I have been thinking about getting one as well. I have a RN4081, DSE901, DSE801, M401/402, 510, Mini-Pipe, Kissbox, Dura-C and more and I am still on the quest. How would you describe the vapor production and throat hit? Can you buy the batteries it uses at Radio shack, so you don't have to order online? I would love to know more about it.

The funny thing is the $150 price tag has been the main reason I never bought it, but I have spent soooo much more looking for the right e-cig!

Really happy you're digging the Screwdriver!

I built a mod that works relatively the same as the SD using 901 atomizers, and I freakin' love it. I have no doubt the SD surpasses mine by a long shot, though, and I'm still jealous. lol

Let us know how you like it over time, as well. The best part about the SD is that you're not going to deal with anything but atomizer degradation. Keep your batteries charged, keep the cartridge full, and you're set!

Why would you be jealous of the SD? Sure the machining and build quality is probably higher than your detonator but yours pumps out more voltage, probably hits harder and creates more vapor.

But it's prettier! lol

I'm still waiting on my deal extreme order to make it to me. I couldn't stand to go through anymore regular cr2 batteries. Those things are expensive!

Meanwhile, the Detonator is sitting idle...

I would take this even further and say save your money and make a magnum. I was planning on buying a screwdriver but but for the cost and effort it takes to make a clone (magnum), I found it much better to make a clone than buy the "real thing."

I bought Bastage MOD on here and I also own Trog screwdriver. Love the screwdriver,but the Magnum,I bought from Bastage beats the screwdriver hands down. It beats it in vapor,battery. Can vape for days with it. It looks kinda funny lookiing,but hey it works GREAT.

Oh boy you hit the nail on the head!
I have spend well over 500 on stuff, although I like all of them, except smoking no where and cheapo china one, The screw driver has throat hit 10 and vapor 10. I would have saved a lot of oney buying it first, but on second thought maybe not, because I would want to try the other cigs, the only thing about the SD thats a little weird is, one its fat and a little strange to hold at first, two its a manual switch ala kissbox, but thats ok. It runs on cr123s recharagable or not, you can buy cr123s from any drug store, but they are rather expensive, thus the recharagable ones, on ebay you can get a 20 pack for 20.00 usd shipped. I always keep a bunch at home for my flashlights and now for the SD.

True you could save money building one yourself, as I did with a radio shack box, but the SD is really slick and nice. My good friend has an old Camaro with a 350 and tons of speed parts on it, way faster than a Porsche 911, the sd is like the Porsche more expensive but higher quality than I could make.
just my .02

Why is the Screwdriver an improvement over a 901 with a USB passthrough, they both work on the same principle (ie. removing the poor 901 battery). I use a 901 with a passthrough and it works great, the 801 passthrough I have produces too much smoke (its like a smoke machine-embarrassing).

Can any one compare a 901 with USB passthrough and a screwdriver I would like to see that.
