LT-V10 vs. KR808D-1 - e-cigarette-forum.com • The place for electronic cigarette reviews, news and chat

Adam · 02-16-2009, 03:54 PM

I am very new to vaping and am looking into buying one of these two e-cigs. Does anyone use or have used either of these two devices? If so, please let me know what your experience was like with it. Did they have good vapor, nic hit, battery life, etc. Do they live up to what they claim or is it just hype? Then finally, would you recomend it to someone or not?

Thank you in advance for your posting.

KRs are from Kanger and they aren't highly thought of, SmokingEverywhere sell the KR808, Parked has a review up of it. Loong Totem batteries aren't great either apparently.

my suggest for a close to analog e-cig is a tride and true DSE-901

Kate - What Manufacturers are highly thought of? It seems that each manufacturere has at least one model that gets poor reviews. What is a tried and true manufacturer? Kanger sells the M401, M402 models which I thought were very similiar to the DSE901.

Smoore make the M401 and M402 as far as I'm aware. They aren't really like a DSE901 - they are smaller and lighter. I like 'em, but they are more fiddly to refill than the 901, and the parts aren't as widely available.

The DSE901 (made by Sailebao) or the more common RN4075 (made by First Union) which is often sold as a DSE901 are one of the best starter e-cigs. Work quite well, and cheap and easily available parts (which you will need to buy often).

Actually, M401 and M402's manufacturer is S'Moore, as far as I know (please someone correct me if I'm wrong) . According to some reviews, they are good e-cigs.

That's right, the M series is by Smoore.

I've not heard anything good about any Kanger products.

The DSE901, M401 (Evo/Pilot), Janty Kissbox and DSE801 (with manual switch) are all worth a look in my view.

Leaford reckons that some disposable atomiser combos are good but I don't know much about them except that I wouldn't buy batteries from Loong Totem, Ecig.com or ePuffer.

Kate · 02-16-2009, 07:33 PM

I forgot about the Janty Dura/Titan/Yeti/Joye510. That might be worth consideration too.

Janty is due to bring out the Janty Stick soon if you want to wait ... I don't know how good it will be but it will have a manual switch, take standard classic/penstyle atomisers and ecigar type cheap batteries.

KR808D-1 and KR808 are definitely not the same. The former uses disposable atomizers (like LTv9 or EAZE magnum), the latter goes with regular atomizer and cart combo. I don't have LT (and don't wanna change that state anyway), but I recently ordered a set of KR808D-1 and some spare batteries. I will keep you updated if can put my hands on it.
