    Nekko, How long of a batt life are you getting? I am prepping for my review and I am only getting 15 min.

    I got mine a couple days ago...

    So far, it's not horrible, by any means, but not as good as I anticipated. And I am used to minis, I retired to a dse084 over a month ago, and my other go to ecig is a volcano with 306 atty.

    One of my attys, had coral green soemthing in the threads...like corrosion looking stuff. I have to email them about it.

    It vapes for a long period per draw, not 8 seconds, but the throat hit isn't as "pungent" as I was anticipating. I'm not a huge throat hit whore, so it's not a big deal.

    I've only tried the flavored carts that came with it. Menthol. Taste, isn't bad, I'm getting what seems like about 10 good puffs and flavor starts to taper.

    Again, the atty may just need to break in.

    The best thing for me, is that it charges my dse084 batteries!!! I've been trying to build my own dse084 pcc out of a joye 510 pcc, a dse901 paper pcc, a cheap dx ecig plastic flip box, and some other stuff. Trying to figure out how to make it work, to hold an assembled 084, carts and battery. Now, I can forget that, and use it to charge my dse084s until I break the atty in on the revolver.

    Ultimately, if the device doesn't work out for me, the PCC was worth 60 to have something to take my o84 stuff with me.

    Sounds to me like you're not using fully charged batteries.

    To correctly charge the battery after it's screwed into the charging slot, press the button until the LED lights up green. After about 5 second it'll turn red for a few seconds then shut off, with the blue backlight on the remaining power display shutting off as well. Leave it alone for a while, then press the button, just momentarily and the blue backlight will show for about 5 seconds. If it's not yet done charging the red LED will also light up at the same time. Once it's fully charged the LED will not light up when the button is pressed, unless you hold it in for two full seconds, then it would turn green and NOT turn red. Really, just a quick button press is all you need to check the staus of your battery's charge.

    The first time each of my batteries was charged it indeed did a full charge in under 15 minutes. I was amazed. Subsequent charges are now taking 50-54 minutes each... This is because the batteries are shipped with a partial charge. The 15 minutes thing was, I believe, a manufacturer's claim. Is this a deal=breaker? Not in the least. Any of my other ecigs with larger batteries take up to 2 to 3 times LONGER than that to charge so I'm still happy with the Revolver, concerning charge times.

    As far as battery life is concerned, if I start with a fresh, FULLY-charged battery, using normally I'll get 2-3 hours out of it. If I use it like a damn pacifier, drawing near CONSTANTLY, about 45 minutes.

    And Mooby, it's Nikko, not Nekko

    My battery seems to have a mind of it's own. Fully charged it will last 1 hour of occasional use one time, then the next time (again fully charged) it will only last maybe 5 puffs.

    I have found that if I unscrew the battery about 2 turns after each puff it will last longer, but what a pain.

    Just an aside to the people that are not too pleased with the m401 carts being "hard" to put back, use the plug that came with the cart to keep the liquid in to push the little reservoir cup back into the filter cart. It pushes it down the perfect amount of space and you don't have to jack with trying to angle a paperclip to do it. Only drawback is that you still need the paperclip to get the cart out.

    Whoa, that is really good news! I never got a DSE084 specifically because I couldn't find a decent PCC for it, but now maybe I'll give it a whirl.

    Does anybody know if the 702 PCC will charge any other similarly-sized batteries? L88b (blu/Volcano)? 306? I wouldn't want to just try it, because if they're wired oppositely, bye-bye equipment hello electrical fire. Do the 084 chargers work with any other batteries?

    I just got mine on Monday.

    It is a pretty tight package. The PCC is worth the entire kit price to me.

    I'm a light user, so my batteries last about 2-3 hours each (about 3-4 cigarettes worth). For comparision; my Green Smoke long batteries last about 5-6 hours each, but the Revolver batteries are definitely smaller.

    I'm really liking the menthol flavor (even though I never smoked menthol analogs before), so I really can't comment on the other flavors.

    It doesn't produce as much vapor as my Green Smokes do, but it has more flavor in the packs they ship.

    I like the very long cut-off. I don't have to pull hard like I do on the Green Smoke to beat the timer.

    definately not blu/volcano....threads are the same, but the polarity is reversed.

    My guess is would charge a 306 battery. The short one obviously, the 306a I believe. Also the 510 despite not fitting too long. The threads on my 510, dse084, blu, volcano, m801, joye306, revolver all appear to have the same thread pattern. Every part will swap with another, albeit some don't screw in fully, or too much, but the threads appear the same pattern. But, blu/volcano are confirmed reverse polarity.

    But Volcano has a new pcc coming, so it's good for me.

    Again, I'm still vaping away on my 084, and 306'd Volcano. I like the revolver looks, but I gotta play with it some more before I make a final decision.

    This is helpful. Thanks. Maybe I'll chance screwing in a 306a battery and see what happens. Although I guess it's just as likely that the "smart" PCC needs a "smart" battery for the whole thing to work right. Hmmm.
