Manual Switch 901

[Jammi98]

Ok, so unless I am totally misunderstanding you, you are complaining that the liquid heats up faster with the manual switch? I haven't exactly sat here with a stopwatch, but there doesn't seem to be any difference in the speed between the manual and auto switches. The only difference is that you are pressing a button as opposed to sucking for an extended time. The atomizer is the same no matter which switch you use.

Even though you didn't like my example, product differentiation is one of the bases of a free market...

Is there something dangerous about heating eliquid too quickly?

I think this guy (Taelon) is nuts! sorry to be so rude but really what in the hell are you talking about!

Parked -

I have to agree. I was really trying to be respectful and since he says he's an engineer I figured he might know what he's talking about but nothing is adding up right unless I'm missing something.

The manual switches have been around for a few months now and there hasn't been any real health problems that differentiate it from the automatic ones. I hope Taelon can explain in better detail why manual switches are so bad because as of yet, i see no reason to be alarmed.

I hope the other engineers here will second that.

Also, I have yet to see this ^ happen...

OK, as usual the thread goes off at a tangent again. I use a 901 atomiser with a manual switch powered by 4 x AA NimH 2500mAh batteries. Why ?, because the vape is much better. The extra heat generated by using decent batteries atomises the liquid better and the manual switch gives me better control over when the atomiser is powered. I am constantly reminded at just how useless the orignal batteries are, every time I decide to use one when I'm out and about and can't be bothered to use my decent batteries (happening less often these days). IMHO manual switch is better.

Yes, just imagine and compare putting a breakfast egg in a too hot pan, it will be burned black and gets carcinogenic at bottom (smell it) before cooking through the full thickness of the egg film on the pan (this example should make it clear for the nice Americans here, too ) same for the liquid film on the atomizers heater and in the heaters swam.

Just learn thermodynamics basics like materia thermal resistance and capacity and you will understand whats going on.

[Kate]

Would that account for the crunchy black stuff that builds up in atomisers?

[Rockbassray]

OMG !!! That is either the inside of an atomizer no one would ever want to use.. or someone connected a Scorpion to a battery cable.

Reducing metallic/burnt taste

Well, it seems my DSE103 atomizer model
Atomizer V2 Super Mini E-Cigarette electronic cigarette bei eBay.de: Quitting Smoking (endet 14.01.09 16:48:21 MEZ)
is no more designed with inner swam in the heater spiral, it looks like there's some kind of heat resistant liquid feed half-tube which embeds it, I can't see in fully, can anyone confirm?

[Jammi98]

Sorry, I don't buy the idea that the manual switch heats the atomizer/liquid faster than auto switches.

The only way the problems with burnt material will go away will be with better atomizers. Yes this is a concern, but is an entirely different subject which has nothing to do with what type of switch is used.
