it isnt just pillbox who lies about it...it 99% of suppliers...but i expect better from him...in fact,i feel a thread coming on...

triangle mate,take it from me...if youre getting a spare atomiser,get a white one...in my experience they are better vapour producers than the black,but the black batteries are better than the white ones...

just charge the batteries well,and sip it like a straw,dont take big drags like a fag...

maybe your atomiser is too dry...try dripping 2 or 3 drops of liquid from a cartridge directly into your atomiser-onto the steel wool....pop on a fresh battery and a new cartridge..an see if it improves any...

Hi triangle,
my experience with good e-cigs including the 901 is they work. They all die at some time but if it don’t work out of the box send it back. But you could try charging the batteries longer . If your still not getting good vapour contact pillbox, and he should sort it out for you. Its really a pain when your starting out and the kit lets you down. First impressions can put people off. You should be getting a good alternative to smoking tobacco , and you will when its sorted. You will need some juice to top or drip with.
Stick with it mate and good luck.

Thanks Mr Darcy.

Hmm, I don't have enough posts to add links yet. What I was going to do was check whether the white mini ecigarette atomiser (dse901) will work the same as the black dse901b - I'm assuming they are standard sized and the b in the model number just stands for black?

Bingo ... The (b) in the model # stands for Black ...

P.S. -- Don't listen to the crazy man Darcy. I think he's just color blind when it comes to atomizers. He thinks black is white, and vice versa. So he is really telling you to get another black one

LOL ... j/k

Disappointment in a black mini? I'm confused I just got my black mini today and I love love love love love it. Triangle, be sure you look through all the tips and tricks on these forums, even watch a few videos on how to (insert anything that has to do with e-cigs here). I'd honestly be totally lost without all those great videos and all the tips and tricks I've read on this site. As everyone has said, make sure you get spares, especially atomizers. And next most important thing is to get liquid asap! This can be a lifesaver when you run out of new carts with a day or so before your next shipment gets there.

Coldevil - for your own sake, back away from the flavors. I got cherry and apple today and I'm afraid I may OD on the nicotine before the night's out. They're so yummy I just can't put them down!

*Checks bank account and wanders back over to Steve's site*
"Do these flavors come in 0 nic? Surely they must."

yeah,same model ecig,different colour...all parts are interchangeable...

it will work out ok for you,dont worry mate...just takes a bit of fiddling around at the start sometimes...and theres a technique to learn...

Really glad I found this place. To get so many helpful replies so quickly is really great for a noob. I'm away on holiday from Saturday so I will have to wait until I get back before I take delivery of liquid etc.

Mommyshan - yeah, I've watched Dusty and a few others demonstrate 'technique' and *think* i'm doing it right. I guess I'll find out when I have liquid and an alternative atomizer to try.

I will stick with it and try to get over these teething problems as I'm pretty sure I could happily 'vape' 0MG nicotine liquid before too long and be free from the clutches of Nick O' Teen's addictive lure

You'll get there Tri, just keep trying! I've been smoking my e-cigs since this past Friday and in one day put down the regular cigs. I have tried a few times to smoke one just because I thought I wanted one. Each time they've tasted nastier than the last and I never get past 3 puffs before I put it out and go back inside to happily puff away on my e-cig. Now that I have my mini it's even more so. Best of luck to you and hang in there!

Darcy knows his stuff Tri ... He has probably been through more 901 atomizers than everyone here combined. if he says white is better, go for it!!! I myself haven't used a white 901 atomizer long enough to tell. Sounds like I should though .... hmmmmmm
