Reliable Products and Suppliers

[ZStyle81]

I Got DSE-901b from puresmoker two days ago and I've been on it since. No problems so far, and the service was great! This is my first e-cig and I think I made the right choice. I love it! Shipping was very fast. Oh, and Hi everyone this is my first post. haha

hi everyone,
i am new to the whole idea of e-cig smoking and new to this forum

am about to purchase one, but can't figure out how compatible are cartridges between different makes and models
i.e. can I buy e-cig from one manufacturer and then use cartridges from another?

I wanted to give an e-cig as a present, but the person using it will need to know what & where from to buy the cartridges thereafter

many thanks for your responses, and if you know if this topic has been discussed somewhere on this forum, please head that direction

I bought a penstyle from a company, then I bought another one from an individual. They are not the exact same style but all the parts were interchangeable....carts, atomizers and batteries (lucky for me!). The only problem was the chargers....different volts....can't switch the batteries around to charge (as I hear it).

She/He will probably want liquid more than cartridges once she/he gets going (which is another story) but overall, yes, the parts are interchangeable (at least on mine they were).

Hello, this should probably be in a different thread. Anyway, the simple answer is cartridges are usually not compatible with different models. The fact is though that most companies sell more or less the same generic models.

The other thing to bear in mind is that cartridges are refillable. You buy the nicotine liquid separately (sometimes it is called "e-liquid"). This is the most economical way to use these e-cigs.

The thread as usual seams to have deviated, As a reliable product I have found the DSE901 to be good, I'm still on my first atomiser. I have also found Pillbox38 to be a reliable supplier, He is the only supplier I have dealt with and his service has always been excellent, and as I like to use Totally Wicked juice I am more than happy to continue buying my supplies from him.

I have used the following suppliers and am happy to recommend them:

E-cigs.co.uk
Heavens Gifts
Pillbox38/Totally Wicked
Smokejuice

My favourite to deal with is E-cigs. I do wish their stock levels were a bit better sometimes - they seem to have a very quick turnover of the popular items and stuff on their website is commonly sold out. But their speed of service cannot be faulted.

Wayne at Heavens Gifts is a gent to deal with. Delivery by EMS from China was a bit longer than I expected, much longer than I've experienced with orders from Japan for example, but that is hardly his fault.

Pillbox38 has been fine for me, and are very quick. The TW liquid is good. However my brother did have an issue with an order from them (order went missing) which I think could have been handled better.

Smokejuice were fine. They have very limited stock however, I hope he gets more in.

Ive only dealt with David Yang, Steve at Puresmoker, and Jane at electroniccigarettesales. All three are fantastic people and are the only places I consistently purchase my e-cig related stuff,

If you don't mind I would like to bring the threat back to cartridge/puffs usage. I’m a newb here but from what I read so far it seems to me that Robw has a point when saying that 1 cart is equal 1 cig pack by nicotine content only. Let’s take for simplicity 20mg nicotine cart for SuperMini like DSE103 vs. 20 regular cigs w/1mg nicotine per each. Both contain 20mg, no problem here.

Now, if 1 SuperMini cart lasts 40puffs, which assuming 20puffs per regular cig makes 1 cart equals 2 regular cigs that CONTAIN TOTAL OF 2MG ONLY!
Therefore per Trog100 calculations, we have one 20 a day smoker vaping in avg of 4 carts a day and getting what? 4x20mg = 80MG of nicotine instead of only 20mg with regular pack?

So is he killing himself with nicotine this 20/day poor fella or what? I’m confused.,,,

…thanks in advance for all enlightening.

figure this one out Aleksus. no matter what model you have some suppliers claim 20 cigs = 1 cart.

Super mini cart hold 0.3ml of liquid = 20 cigs
901 ( mini) cart holds 0.5ml of liquid = 20 cigs
Classic (pen) cart hold 0.9ml of liquid = 20 cigs

Claims are false just looking at that. thing is no matter which carts u buy , they are the same price .

if you count the carts you are using , nic intake all depends on which model e-cig you have. As you can see 4 super mini carts doesnt 4 classic carts make

[Aleksus]

Thank you ApOsTle51,
I understand what you are saying but truly I care less what suppliers say because I look at the product specs.
Let's concentrate on SuperMini only. I still see that if I vap 1 cart with 40 puffs (which looks like 1 minisuper cart lasts for) i will consume specified nicotine quantity which will be 18mg for High cart, which will in general substitute 1 regular pack a day.
40 puffs equal 2x20puffs per reg cigarette = 2 reg cigarettes (by puffs only).

therefore I CAN'T smoke more than 1 cart a day, more than 2 times a day with more than 20 puffs per smoke break, if I want to be consistent with the amount of nicotine I'm getting with regular cigs.

If I smoke 4 carts as Trog100 says regular smoker does, boy, I'll be consuming equivalent of 4 reg packs a day by nicotine level.
Hope somebody will prove me wrong.
