What nic level juices do you normally use?

I need 6+ volts to get strong throat hit with any juices below 24mg/ml. Until I can reduce my need for the 'throat hit' sensation, I find it hard to reduce my nic levels using an 801-type device. That is why I was curious about the Screwdriver. I do find that around 5-5.5 volts, using a manual switch, is a great compromise for me between throat hit and flavor. Perhaps a prodigy would be a better device for me.

I have found you can get throat hit from anything. It depends greatly on the juice you are using.

I mainly use 24mg but I'm starting to use some 18mg as a transition. I've also ordered the Prodigy and hope between it and my SD I will be set going forward. I am a little concerned that the higher volts on the Prodigy may diminish the flavor of the juice. I hope not but we will see.

Same here. Awaiting on the Prodigy to arrive this week hopefully. Never tried the SD but wanted to b4 finding the Prodigy but im currently on 36mg juice 901&801 and hope to cut my own juice soon. I been stocking up on a large supply of stuff and have just quit the tobacco yesterday for the last time, and man do I have stuff coming this week! On the way to me, I got a 501, some unflavored 36mg juice, Loranns flavorings, and the Prodigy. Im a driver doing about 350 miles a day, with stress, vaping is soo much cleaner than the dirty tobacco nic method though I shall NEVER go back!

Out of curiosity which version of the SD do people usually go for, the 801 or 901?

The original, or 901 version, is much more commonly owned. Trog only recently began offering the classic penstyle version, as a result of demand by those who prefer penstyle atomizers, but he definitely prefers the 901 (actually 4075) atomizer on an SD.

I have both. I got a penstyle version before they were generally available, through begging. But since I tried 510 carts on the 4075 atomizer, I use the original SD a whole lot more now. It's much sleeker, given that the atomizer itself is significantly smaller that the penstyle atomizer.

I have the mini or 901 style also. I wasn't able to totally give up analogs until I got my SD. in fact, I just ordered one for my hubby so he'll quit stealing mine. The Screwdriver is expensive to start with, but is it ever worth the price in dependability, battery life, and cheap overall parts cost. It also delivers a consistent throat hit, which I really need to feel like I'm getting my 'fix'.

I find the Prodigy a tempting thought (my hubbie calls me 'Gadget-Girl'), but since I have already sunk so much money into the SD, I'll wait and see how well the first-adopters like it.

Hey, Cinn, just like you, I couldn't get off the analogs completely until I got the SD. I can't imagine why anyone would want to hassle with small battery auto switch PV's anymore.

yvilla, so you like the 510 blank carts in the 901 atomizer better on the SD? Where do you get your blank 510 carts from?

[yvilla]

WV and Cinn, me too. I was constantly giving in to the temptation to buy a pack out of sheer frustration with regular ecigs and their batteries, before I got my first SD back in late November. Since then, not an issue.

WV, yes, because the 510 cart really holds more liquid, so topping off is less frequent. I bought a couple of five packs from Dietsmokes, and have been really happy with them.
