Lets talk about disposable atomizer brands
First off, id like to know who makes them. Are they all from Loongtotem?
Second who are all the dealers and what is the origin of each ones line.
The reason im starting this thread is to help people like my self who find the disposable atomizer technology interesting. From most of the reviews Ive seen, they all suffer from bad batteries, but the vapor is huge. Making this a prime candidate for thread mods. (ie a mod to put the disposable atomizers on trusted batteries such as a pen style)
Id also like to know which carts taste the best and produce the best vapor. Also which are best at refilling.
So lets get busy.

two I know of are the two I own: loong and e-cig. They make the majority of the cigarette style disposables I am aware of whatever it is rebranded. had hopes that e-cig would improve on loongs design. they didnt. instead they made the batteries shorter. top marks e-cig! I did yesterday hack a disposable atomizer from e-cig onto my screwdriver with the help of a small spring. results> ouch that metal heats up > must be the reason they have such a short cut off > also I have never owned a cartridge that lasted me a day. they are all like ~60drags then the stinky burning. 60 drags is half an hour for me. not much joy refilling them either.
then there is greencig. one review in French over on e-cigtest. He liked it. It uses a cartridge more akin to the ones we are familiar with. I would like to try it also. because an Estonian company wanted to act as a middleman for their distribution and charge outrageous prices, they are not now as prominent in the market. but I think now they have quit the idea. there is a seller in the UK and France.
there is a lot of room for improvement and innovation in the disposable market. currently though the disposable models use the same liquid but for some reason, they lack flavour. perhaps it should be concentrated more. there is no amazing technology inside a disposable atomizer. It is the same coil placed vertically surrounded by what might be a small tube of kevlar and soaked padding. pics later.
price for disposable atomizer $3 each from supplier.
price for regular atomizer from supplier $8-15
What's up with that?? they are the exact same thing. different shapes.
price for battery for disposable $27 - $50
price for battery for regular $10 - $15
What's up with that??? they are the exact same thing. different threads.
they are priced on a scale of how often they they will be consumed. the crazy battery prices for disposables make up for the loss on atomizers. realistically all regular atomizers should be $3 and all batteries should be $10 - $15 but the price the Chinese manufacturers request from suppliers dictate otherwise. In a year we should have atomizers no more costly than a bic biro unless Big Pharm start their meddling. I cracked open a charger there recently. there is 5 times more technology in there than any atomizer or battery I have ever seen, yet you can pick them up for $10. what's up with that? I don't know.

i also get from e-cig. it works well until u get that burnt taste... what is that awful burnt taste? i have to change carts everytime that happens... and i also have that same problem where i could only get 60-70 puffs out of it when the website promises around 120 for each cartridge

The 901 pen tip solves the issue of the hot atomizer.

I would so buy one of those. I need to learn how to build my own.

well i just bought a magnum from epuffer ... and i love it .... i'm treating it like a normal e cig and topping up the carts a lot ... but as long as i keep the padding moist as possible i cant see any problems .... even with my refilling the vapour quantity drops but is still marvellous ..the atomiser is different as the heating element goes in a springy type way all the way through the spongey stuff rather than just touching the top of it it cost me a fortune and the shipping wasn't cheap either ...but it made me put my intellicig evo down waaaaa

It's really easy to make and once I have a dead e-cig/red dragon battery, I'll replace the atomizer on this unit with the battery or just build another one. It takes about an hour to put together from start to finish.
I knew absolutely nothing about soldering or electronics when I started literally two days ago. After reading a bunch of threads and raiding radio shack, I figured it out. I screwed up the circuit a couple times and got a few burns but it definitely was worth it. Go for it!
I wonder if I'll ever go back to a standard e-cig since the mods out-perform the standards by such a large margin!

I have a store by my house called American Science & Surplus American Science & Surplus : Items Just Off the Truck
Anyways I go there to buy my bottles and chemistry stuff for mixing and cutting and latex gloves. But they have other things to.... like massive amounts of batteries, battery holders, wires.. I could probably build my own atomizer out of parts from that store. I built a working submarine out of parts from there and a 2 liter pop bottle when I was in 8th grade and won first place in the science fair. Ever since then I have not touched anything like that and have just recently starting going back to the store. Im starting to think its time for me to build my own mod using that store.
Im curious about your battery life on those AAA's and how hard would it be to create a Auto one and not have a manual switch? Im also very interested in these cart/atomizers from red dragon and bloog.
hopefully Ill have some spare time to make something soon. I want to make a clear one I think.
