Wha DON'T you like about your 510?

[Steampunk]

Sorry to sidetrack off topic - I'm not familier with the 510 or 401 but they look like the 102,103, or 4081. I'm just wondering, are the cartridges similiar? I've read lots of good things about the 401 but if the cart size is similiar to a super mini, I'm afraid I wouldn't like it.

Thanks!

hahaah, I just noticed I was the one who sold you that 510 I got 2hrs after I received it. Have you had any issues at all with it?

No problems! I'm going with your M.O. Find something that works for me and stick with it.

I still find myself cruizing the classifieds though...

That's quite a 401 stash!

I really like my 510 quite a bit. I'm really satisfied with the performance, vapor production, batt. life, etc. About the only gripes I have are:

No USB passthrough.
Expensive batts. atomizers.

Hopefully as this product comes into it's own the prices will come down. It's cheaper to buy a whole new set than to fool with new batts...

Prices have dropped in the past couple of weeks, starter sets were 58-60 bucks, now most vendors have dropped to 49-59. As for parts check all the vendors as there are HUGE differences in batt and atty prices out there.

What I don't like; not much really. Nope, as of around 9 or 10 days with the thing I'm still perty much in love with it!

1. It uses a lot of liquid. One of those big carts doesn't last me as long as the teeny tiny one in my Pilot.

2. Sometimes it runs too hot and scorches the liquid.

3. Er.

4. That's it.

What I don't like:
1. Automatic Batteries
2. Leaky carts (still get them occasionally)
3. High prices on parts
4. Miss the pip tip of a 901, would like a 510 cart size with an added pip tip.
5. No USB passthrough, or if there is one it's as rare as a freakin unicorn or something because I sure haven't seen one....
6. Poor battery life, would be less of an issue if the mythical passthrough would bless us with it's presence...

Same here. I just top off my carts frequently. Keeps the vape clean and smooth...

I don't get the problem with short battery life. My Dura-C batteries last for ages compared to those on my Pilot 401 (which admittedly are small). I think the manual switch extends the life because I release the switch before I finish taking a drag whereas the auto ones are still lit when I take the e-cig out of my mouth. Perhaps I take shorter drags than most people.

Hmmm. I get about an hour and a half of use from a Dura manual battery. It is pretty constant use though through that time. I take about five to six second drags.

Same here strayling. I've only the 2 batts right now, more coming. Both are manual. Full charge on both when I leave the house at 6AM and still using the 2nd batt as I type this.

Wow! That is some battery life! I've got six batteries that don't last me through the day without hitting the charger.
