Problem with new Dragon M401 atty.
Well, I got my replacement kit last week because the batteries and atomizers both crapped out on me. Two days ago, the atty that was kicking has already kicked the bucket. My other atty had a difficult draw from the first drag and is still giving me a head rush. I doubt it's clogged, due to the atty doing this out of the box.
I never would have thought that this was possible to get two lemons in a row.... But it happened. I placed an order on LitecigUSA for 2 new atties(Hopefully, they work). FYI, I'm not interested in cartomizer style e-cigs. Are there any suggestions as to what I should do to get this atty working? I'm really feening for nicotine and have analogs in my pocket. PLEASE HELP!

I've found the M401 atties to be unreliable. My first lasted three weeks, the next 2 died a week a part. I've always felt the M401 runs dry on me too quick which I believe contributes to a short life. With all that said, I love my M401 but it's my occasional vape. I vape pretty heavily so I need something that keeps up with me. I have 510 that's my steady PV. As far as the M401 atty, sorry to say but I think it's luck of the draw with these atties.
Good luck!

I guess that they are unreliable, even though, all I heard was praise for the M401. That's why I purchased one. I guess that I'll have to make the best of it until I can afford a different model. I just haven't really considered the 510, due to shorter battery life. I just don't know what to do. Analogs make me sick and my e-cig makes me frustrated.

There's a couple of different makes of M40x atties, Smoore being the original I believe.
They always seem to take a while to break in but then I am sure something is up with atties at the moment, the life-span seems to be really low on quite a few models. One manfuacturer has dropped the price quite low for atts (at wholesale), I wonder if they have a batch they ned to get rid of (not smoore)?

Do you have a clue, as to if the Dragon atty is Smoore? Whole-sale price? I hope it doesn't include LitecigUSA....

No, the dropped wholesale price doesn't include smoore:P It could just be a price breaks thing but being honest, it also coincides with a higher failure rate. Call me a cynic

Ok, *phew*. I hate cynical people; they bring out the worst in.... oops, lol. I just hope these new atties work well. At least more than a week.

Thank you to the both of you for helping to put my mind at a little ease.

You could ask the vendor, if they sell smoore they would probably be quite happy to say so (if asked) as the atomizers (lol) are superior. The best batteries for the M40x series, I think, come from SLB, at the least the auto's anyway; they don't fire if you sing at them. I have only tested this mildly so go easy on me if there is a huge problem I am not seeing.

Never mind, my mind is not at ease. My battery lasted about an hour and now I'm pi$$ed. The other is charging still and I hate this faulty thing. I'm going to see if I can get a refund. Never doing business with Truesmoker again.
