Thanks to forum memebrs - new user with a PureSmoker

[Cartoon Dude]

Just wanted to say thanks to all the people who have been helpful to others on these forums, especially noobs. I was lurking here for a while when I first learned about this whole e-cig thing. As a geek I had to try it out.

Thanks to the forum I was able to educate myself on everything surround this e-cig thing -- would have been lost otherwise.

From the suggestions on this board, I ordered a pen-style smoker from puresmoker.com and so far have been duly impressed -- super-fast shipping, and the unit arrived working fine and battery charged (as Steve said it would on his FAQ video).

I think this was a greast entry-level model, and would suggest to anyine out there that's curious as I was to pick one of these up. The price is right and you'll be able to tell if the e-cig is for you. The e-cig arrived in just 2-3 days, which was awesome.

I should also give a compliment to this guys at Janty USA. I had first emailed them with some product questions and the reply was lightning quick and friendly. I am holding off on a deluxe/portable model until I see how the e-cig thing goes, but the customer support of both these companies (Janty USA & PureSmoker.com) has been impressive.

you made a great choice- if you want to try other models, his cigar and 901 are great choices as well and hte prices and customer service can't be beat. The cigar will last longer between refills and battery charges, and the 901 will be smaller, more portable and discrete, but still a great vapor producer

Hello fellow Ohioan,
I also deal with Janty USA & PureSmoker.com and use the 901's.
Best service and fast.

[Cartoon Dude]

Naz - I went with the pen-style as I am primarily trying to quit chain smoking while sitting in front of the computer working all day. I read the pen-style have larger capacity. If I get into this I will definitely be picking up a portable unit.

BrownBeer - a hello back to you fellow Ohioan! With the cig tax in our state, I am surprised more people in our area aren't into/aware of these alternatives.

[Nazareth]

Yep- the carts do last longer, the only thing is that it's a little heavy for holding in teeth for long periods, which if that's how ya generally esmoke, the 901 will be appreciably lighter I think (not sure, as I think most of hte wieght coems from the battery- not sure if the batt on the 901 is same size as penstyle or not)

Note, you also got the 4 hole atomizer on the penstyle which is MUCH MUCH better I guess than the older 2 hole ones- much easier draw I'd think, so ya got the good ones. Hope ya got another artomizer or two as backups, these are the things that go on the esmoking devices, so to save frustration of not having a working ecig while you reorder, might just wanna pick a few up at Cashme's prices- they are much less expensive and work just as good if not better than other expensive brands.

[Cartoon Dude]

I had heard the atomizers were something needing replacement, but didn't realize it was that common or regular.

How often do those things break? I guess I should search the forums, I am sure it's been discussed to death!

[Nazareth]

yeah they have a tendancy to go quite often- although I think Cashme's will last awhile- not sure how long they last- but my SmartFixx ones went within 2 weeks tops (I did have one last 3 weeks- but all the others died between 1 and 2 weeks- but other brands are known to last a mo0nth or more)

Hello,
We can convert the whole state

The atomizers can get dirty, and if your not careful they can burn out too, but only if you run them dry.
Just watch if the vapor really drops off, try cleaning it first, then think about replacing it.
The batteries on these are not the best eather, Ive been through 2 already, but I think I killed the one myself
Spare parts of all kinds for these is a good idea.

[Cartoon Dude]

Yikes, I didn't realize that would be the case -- 2 - 3 weeks. Seems a poor design, has to be a way to swap out parts instead of throwing the whole atomizer part away. What a waste.

Thanks for the heads up.

[Nazareth]

You'll get longer than that by keeping the cartridges quite wet with liquid- just be careful not to run them too dry-
