Throwaway Cigar Smokers

[Nazareth]

I know a few people have tried various throwaway cigars, and was wondering if you could give us your impressions as to how long hte taste lasted, whether or not yuo felt it lasted the advertised '1800-2000' 'mouthfuls' (just roughly estimate what you think it lasted as compared to packs of ciggs (some claim to last the = of 12 packs of regular cigarettes vapor wise), and how you you think the nicotine lasted? Also, how was the vapor production? Fresh? After a couple of days use? After 7-10 days use (if it lasted that long)?

I'd liek to try one, and might even switch to htem IF they last about 10 packs worth nic and vaporwise (as well as battery wise- did it get hard to make vapor as the battery wore down?), but am limitted with funds right now, and would appreciate your experience before jumping in on htis decision. If you could name the brand in your impressions too, that would be helpful also, Thanks

I mean the disposable throwaway cigars Devilfish- I beleive you're talkign abotu hte E-Cigars that you can refill and recharge hte batteries on?

Hi Naz.
I have tried a Ruyan Throwaway, but i'm not really impressed.
I haven't been counting draws, but i feel it's way below the advertised 1800-2000.
When new, it gave quite a hit and produced a ton of smoke, but it dropped off rather quickly. I have never been much of a cigar smoker, but i think it gives a pleasant distinct cigar taste.
Mine is not quite dead yet, but when it dies i'll pull it apart and see if it can be refilled, and batteries replaced with rechargeables :-)

[Nazareth]

Thanks Clavit- yeah- I was wondering if it could be refilled too- how many days have you used your ruyan? Has the vapor and throat hit dropped off dramatically? I've always been suspicious of hteir 1800 puff claims, but if it could get around 1500 or so with fairly good vapor, I'd concider getting htem, but don't want to spend that kind of $$ if the vapor and nic throat hit drops off significantly after just a day's use or so. I suppose if it could be refilled, I would get it, but I suspect hte battery charge drops off noticeably after a day or so.

I saw a video of hte ruyan, and wasn't overly impressed with the vapor I saw, but the person who did the video looked like he wasn't drawing very hard on it too- so it was hard to tell

For the refilling, I wonder if a hole drilled in the side where the cartridge sits might be able to refill it? Could plug hte hole after soemhow. Will be interesting to see what you discover when you pull it apaert- please keep me posted.

I can't really coment on the "how many days" bit. I have just used it on and off. My main smoke is DSE901's, so i just used the ruyan as an after-dinner cigar :-)
About refilling: I gave the mouthpiece a good tug, and it came off! The "cartridge" has a tinfoil seal which is broken when you push the cigar together, so you can actually refill it without drilling! The visible part of the atomizer looks like a big version of the supermini's: a "bridge" made of some sort of steel wool which reaches into the cartridge part.
Pictures will come when i start taking the thing apart :-)

That's the same design used in the Heath pack I just bought. The atomizer has an arrow bridge that punctures a tinfoil seal inside the cartridge. The seal keeps nicotine from evaporating until needed. That means you could drip directly onto the atomizer and get a good after-dinner cigar smoke. Or refill the cart. Battery life is the only limitation.

[Nazareth]

Cool Clavit- that certainly sounds encouraging abotu hte foil part- sounds liek it's relatively easy to refill then- the only question then will be how long hte battery lasts and whether it can accept a rechargeable battery. The only problem would be gettign actual Ruyan liquid for refilling as I'd want the kind that absorbs in the lungs to be able to use it around people without exhaling clouds of vapor. Looking forward to hte pictures.

I finished my second ruyan vegas , and to me it's the best e smoking device so far.I still have an njoy and I just bought a pair of mini rn4081 , and I have tried cartridges from njoy , janty, ecig, smartfixx .So I have something to compare to. ( now I'm waiting for Jonson Creeck trial pack).
As soon as I can , I'll get a e-pipe to see if i can get the same kind of feeling, the taste and a kind of tingling in the tongue that i really like. To me , it's meant to be smoked cigar style.
About how long it lasts it's hard to tell without counting, I don't smoke that much and it lasts me about two weeks at 100 % and another week at say 60 %.And then it dies.

[Nazareth]

Hi Fumador, lasting 2 weeks, are you using it daily- couple hours a day? Or every coupole of days for 20 minutes or so? We gotta find out what it is in the juice that causes the tingling cigar-like feeling
