Where did you purchase from?

Anyone who has both the SD and the pipe(Classic Electronic Pipe - $89.95 : Electronic Cigarette Store), what do you think? I really like the style of the pipe, it fits me much more than the SD would, but I'm a bit apprehensive of purchasing it. However, I've only heard positive things of the SD, I'm still contemplating, any advice?

your're absolutely right the 901 with the pass through is the same thing, but with the sd you can vape all day and not be tethered to a cord. The 901 is the best atomizer out there, with the sd attachment it gives more freedom in portability and battery life. I must admit though I just got it today and only used it for one day my opinion may change over time.

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 agree. I recently purchased the SD and I'm completely loving it. I've spent a nice hunk of change on various models (Npro and Kissbox) and battery options, however, I was never satisfied. There have been times when I reverted back to an analog now and then. Now, with the SD, I feel that I've found device that will work for me. I think my search is over . . . until the Janty Stick hits the market!

Does anyone have experience with taking a SD through airport security? I'm about to leave on my honeymoon through SE Asia and really want to take my SD. I'm a little apprehensive, however, about how airport security is going to react to the looks of the SD and whether I can sufficiently explain to them that it's not a detonator but a e-cig.

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

paulhampson,

Review of The Big Four


personally, i use a power pack and passthrough.
i haven't tried anything else that comes close.
affordable, dependable and easily replaced, imo.
some folks have reported dodgy passthroughs but i've been using mine since the beginning of the year with no problems. ymmv

Same here CandyGirl.........It's hard to justify $150 on a screwdriver(although I would like to have one eventually),when you can buy a passthrough for $20 shipped at some sites,or $10 when you buy in bulk from Bestcigs.I've been using the same passthrough for a month and a half with no problems...love it! When the SD goes down to $99 US...if it ever does I might get mine,until then the passthrough will do for me!The Wiz!

I am all for people doing what they like and what works for them, but I, personally, would never pass up a simple, compact design like SD or a magnum for a passthru and a power pack.

It's pricey, for sure. I would be paying for the look and for the ease of use. The more components you add to the mix, the more chance for failure, in my book.

I am still on the market for an e-cig. I was going to buy a 901 from TW but they are out of the platinums. Out of curiosity, where does one find a SD? Maybe I should just cut right to the chase.

There is always the option to make one DealExtreme: $15.99 Romisen RC-A8 Cree Q3-WC 200-Lumen LED Flashlight (1*CR123A) even in black DealExtreme: $14.99 Romisen RC-A8 Cree P4-WC 130-Lumen LED Flashlight with Strap (1*CR123A)
There was a time when I was saving up for a screwdriver but after knowing I can make one myself out of a flashlight that cost about 10% of what the SD will cost me. I could not bring myself to buy one without even at least trying to make one.
