Default RN 4081 - Underrated?

I have been vaping for 2.5 months now. My first and only e-cig was the Npro(RN4081).

I have been viewing here that this is an inferior product. In lieu to this idea I recently ordered a DSE901 which I have been hearing rave reviews on. I have not received it yet, but, I got, to tell you in retrospect that this RN 4081 is quite a Diehard.

To date I am still on original batts and atty. The vape and throat hit are still tremendous.

This little 901 has some big shoes to fill!!

I understand it may have a smoother hit or something, but, can anyone comment on its durability? Especially the attys?

RN4081 is a super mini, Dse-901 is a regular mini. It depends on the way you vape. I would think the battery on the DSE-901 would hold a larger charge as well as having a slightly larger cartidge.

There is a lot of confusion on these forums with regards to the 4081. It is actually a very good product but many people are unable to separate the ridiculous prices that are charged from the actual performance.

I went through the same thing as you and bought into the hype about the 901 and to be perfectly honest I found it to be no better than the 4081 in performance.

The only noticeable difference for me was that the 901 I got was totally unreliable. Both batteries and the atomizer from my starter kit have all died in under a month.

Great!

My main concern is the atty? I'm still on original RN 4081 and it is kickin. I do regularly blow it our and sit it on its non-batt side..

In my experience through alot of china dealers the Dse-901 Batteries seem to be the culprit of bad performance.The atomizers seem to be good (I have never had a Dse-901 atomizer dead on arrival) but have had the batteries blinking and dead when I bought them.

JMHO but I think the best upgrade from a 4081 without giving up the e-cig form factor is a manually switched 510.

No argument from me on the RN4081. I have an NPRO and a PeeWee, all batteries and atomizers going strong for 2-1/2+ months (my husband is using the NPRO now, but he still hasn't given up analogs).

I mostly use a pass-through, though, since I work at home. *Love* the passthrough!

I've been tempted to get the 510, since I've read such rave reviews, but until we know what's going to happen with the #$*@(# FDA, I think I'll just buy stuff for the model I already own. And really, I'm very happy with the RN4081 ... nothing to compare it with, but hey, I have no desire for an analog!

The problem with me on the super minis is it seems you need to top off after 40 puffs?

That's a common complaint. It doesn't bother me. I like to switch flavors often, anyway, plus I think it keeps me from over-vaping.... At least it makes me more conscious of how much I'm vaping.... Er, or I just wait until I get nauseated....
