yes mate, i always did feel that i didnt blow it directly at the camera.......but i must admit that i do try and aim the smoke rings at the lens! lol
i do tend to be able to get good vapour from most e-cigs (except the gamucci micro! lol) even compared to other people who are sat next to me and vaping my own e-cig.
i often get my wife to try out new flavours that ive got for review and it frustrates the hell out of me when she takes a drag but on the exhale has hardly any vapour........if any!
but im currently making a promo vaping vid for a las vegas convention which she is also in and i had to teach her how to vape (not much point her being in the vid if she cant produce good vapour!).............now she tokes like a pro and can get just as much vapour as me! (almost!)
cheers,
scott

Scott, you mentioned that the Prodigy is not for people that do not want to drip. I realize that the maker of Prodigy is also a dripper, but I just don't think that this is a drip-only device. I have been using the 510 version of Prodigy exclusively since I got it, vaping all the time, but have not dripped -- I only top-off the cartridge as needed. The 510 cartridge with the straw-modification that is described elsewhere on this board can hold lots of liquid, actually more liquid than you drip into 901 atty.

hi mate,
i must admit that i am getting a lot of people write to me to say that they use the Prodigy just fine with carts on their own!
but at the end of the day i can only review it based on my own personal experience of the product. when i 1st got it i was using just carts and within a few hours i had gone thru a couple of atomisers. i contacted the manufacturer and was told that the atomiser must be kept very moist at all times and that i should add 4 - 5 drops of juice on a regular basis. since doing that i stopped getting atomiser problems and its performance increaded greatly.
and i was actually using 510 carts in the vid.
cheers,
scott

Scott, I understand. I used to have the worst luck with atomizers when I started vaping (pre-Prodigy) -- they would last me at first no more than 3 or 4 days, which later improved to two weeks after I learned the ins and outs.
When I got the 510 Prodigy I used atomizer that I thought was about to die since it was in use already for almost two weeks. I am still using that same atomizer with Prodigy -- it is now going on one month! I am shocked by this myself because I don't do any special cleaning, vape all the time, don't bother with giving it time to cool off, didn't wipe any battery connections.
The only difference I can notice is that I take many short 2-second draws instead of the long draws you take in your video. And I never drip. Could that make a difference?

Great review I'm on the fence about getting a prodigy. I keep hearing great things so holding back is getting harder and harder.

hi mate,
if you do decide to get one then id say go for the 801 type as i believe the atomisers are better suited than the 901 type.

Thanks for the review. I ordered one today after using my Pure Smoker Pass thru for a week now. All I can say is that after vaping all night at high voltage it is real hard to get a decent hit while at work. It is frustrating at best. I guess you could say I am spoiled now. lol... So after being on the fence and kinda waiting on the Protege to come out I watched this video today and said "What the ....?" So I ordered a Prodigy today! I don't think I would have been happy with the Protege anyway because it is a 3 volt device. Have you been using the Prodigy for your vaping pleasure or do you like something else for your everyday vape? I have just about every device made (801/901/510/401/KR808) so I guess you could say I tried all the rest and now I want the BEST... I can always sell off these other devices or something like that. There is a swap shop on the ECF right? lol....
I must tell you that every friend of mine I always tell them to watch your reviews to learn from you like I did.
Keep up the good work.. I and my friends appreciate it very much!
Keep on vapin

hi keith,
the prodigy really does deliver the goods in just about every aspect you could wish from an e-cig and im sure you will be very happy with it!
i use the prodigy, 510 and stick as my main vapes and switch between them depending on my mood lol, but i quite often like to use the DSE084 as well as its such a great little e-cig imo.
glad you like my vids mate and i really appreciate the kind words 
have a great day,
cheers,
scott

I really like the M403. I think it is similar to the 084 isn't it? Just the other day I was taking a smoke (or vape) break at work and I caught myself trying to flick off the ash. lol.... That is the most realistic sized e-cig. I actually have the 401 batteries also but don't use them much. I do think it will remain a regular in the rotation also. I have been having good luck with the KR808 lately. The cartomizers last a long time and so do the batteries. When I am out I usually have my 510, KR, and M403 with me. Now it looks like I need a way to carry a Prodigy. Have you found a good way of toting it around? I was thinking about a Mag light flash light Belt holder. Know what I am talking about? Take the atty off and use that so the PD is not in my pocket.
Anyway, take it easy.

Haha! I get the same thing from my girl. Too funny. I try and teach her my method to vaping and she doesn't want any part of learning my methods! Ohwell
