Dura C dissapointment

[ceejay]

wow, i have 3 901's and have never had one leak.
if i did i wouldn't use it.

that just shows the quality of ANY e-cig isn't consistent

are you using the dura carts on the 901?
i think someone tried that awhile back with the same results, too loose.
even tried notching the cart to help the fit.

This thread got me thinking, so I took a black dse 901 cart, and filled it, and slapped it on the dura atomizer/batt. It is a lil bit tight fit, but it does go on, and they are same length as dura carts. I can suck for all Im worth now and NO leaking. I find I like the dse flat mouthpiece better anyways, the cart doesnt hold as much, but for no juice squirts in the mouth, ill take it. This works for the times I want small, and tetherless vaping.

Sad...Truly sad.

The Dura was on my "must have" list for a long time...Then I started hearing about all of the problems with them.

It's too bad.

Yeah, me too

I swear I'm not trying to be contrary here, but a number of people are commenting about people complaining about the Dura-C, and I just haven't seen it.

Basically, I've seen Beequeen with a serious leakage problem and someone else unhappy about a short battery life (agreed) and the manual switch. Well, heck, the manual switch is kind of the point of the Dura-C. Maybe I'm missing something, but there hardly seems to be much negative chatter from people who actually own the Dura-C.

What I am seeing, though, are a bunch of people who are busy commenting negatively about the Dura-C based upon what they experienced or heard about the original Dura.

I guess the way I look at it is just as many of us have learned to be cautious about singing praises of a brand new model before it's been put through the paces for a few weeks, we should be likewise careful about panning a product prematurely.

Thus far, my only complaint with the Dura-C is my batteries don't last as long as I think they should. Right now, I'm getting about 2 hours, and I'm not exactly using it non-stop. That, to me, isn't long enough.

As for those who are unhappy with the manual switch, it is my understanding that a new automatic battery for the Dura will be coming out at the end of the month.

My carts are very leaky on the Dura C and an atomizer pooped in one use.

Also, a package from Janty is lost in the mail worth $70!

I have spent so much cash in experimentation not sure it is worth it?

but when you find something that works real well (Vaping heaven) it makes it all worth it!


I almost bought a smoking everywhere unit, then I found this forum and Parkd's review of the Dura. I knew then the Dura was what I wanted.

The leaking is annoying (leaks are just a bit sometimes not all the time)

but man when the Dura is working well, there's nothing like it! pure bliss!!

Borjis--IMO--and having been burned by the Dura nightmare--it is wise to stick with the tried and true like the 901 or the 801//RN4072 Penstyles--rather than go though all the garbage--Until I see many reports about how good a product is--only then will I branch out again --the Dura was a joke---Sun

Hi, Pure Habit. I responded to the thread you started regarding the Dura-C, so I won't repeat it all here.

However, I did want to tell you not to give up. Atomizers giving up the ghost is a fairly common occurrence, regardless of model. That's why folks generally recommend making sure you've got backup parts. I have backups for my backups.

You still have a functioning atomizer, and I believe I'm correct in saying that the Dura-C shipped with two atomizers, one a freebie (no warranty) and the other fully covered by the warranty. I suspect Janty decided to ship the extra atomizer for just this reason . . . to provide backups for folks if something went wrong so they wouldn't be left out in the cold waiting for a replacement part. Contact Jeff at Janty to let him know that you need another atomizer and see if he is willing to send you some different cartridges.

Vaping requires some patience. Faulty equipment, having to order online, dealing with cartridges, charging batteries, and then learning an entirely different way to "smoke"--not for the faint of heart. But if you can make it work for you, the rewards are pretty amazing.

I am seriously thinking about going back to Marlboro but darn they are up to $4.55 a pack and healthwise yuckyyy!!

It is so frusturating! doing months of research and going through lots of cash to finally get what you think is going to work but doesn't!

I am lost and do not know what to do now.
