I trust you Jim. You've helped me a lot on the topic. Personally, I think interchanging the two are going to enhance my vape. We'll see, but I have a feeling I'll be happy either way. If it doesn't make it better, it will at least be convenient.I'm extremely happy with my model after spending so much time playing with it, everyday it becomes more of a vapor monster. Like I said. I'm getting new parts today and I will be using liquids for the first time as well, so there's just no tellin what the potential of my 4081 really is. I will def. let you know how it's going!

I'm using my 4081 attys on a box mod now. Longer lasting battery, but it lacks in looks. For the past couple of months, I've been dropping 4 drops in the cart, and 1 drop on the atty bridge. I get a great hit & vapor for about 10 puffs or so, then repeat. I'm satisfied with it.

the 4081 does not have air holes on the end of it. the only air holes are on the side where the atty attaches to the battery. the only circumstance where I have had "hard draws" on my were directly related to the cartridge.

Some of my cartridges were extremely hard to draw on. I popped the foam plug on the inside out of one of them, and found 2 small disks of foam that the manufacturer had placed between the foam plug (the plastic piece that you drip into when refilling) and the end of the cart. I removed those, and it's now an easy draw again. I have found these disks in about 10 of my 50 carts.

Check your carts if you have a hard draw on a 4081.

I believe your referring to the little end cap on the mouthpiece end? I pull them out and throw em away.

Agent309 · 10-13-2009, 06:40 PM

yes, it's a removable cap, but I find the inside of the cart to get "messy" with liquid, and for me, it helps to keep it inside the cart, and off my shirt pocket

What I found odd was all my carts came from the same manufacturer (i guess, single order of 50 of them), but only about 20% had the extra foam disks in them. Maybe it was something they were experimenting with. Or maybe it was just someone at the factory having a bad day, wanting to mess with people *shrug*

Some of mine had the fiber disk and some didn't. Just poor quality control.

I did not read all this post.

My RN4081 was a hard draw pre modification.
I filed the batt slots.
I direct drip.
Now my RN4081 draws easier than my 510.
My RN4081 is 1 year old with a lot of miles.
When is it going to die?

I just started with the e-cigarette yesterday. Got caught up in a Smoking Everywhere kiosk in our mall. Ended up actually getting a pretty good deal on 3 starter kits and they threw in extra carts some juice, etc, so all in all, I came out ok.

The video posted earleir in this thread made ALL the difference in the world for me in the amount of vapor I was getting. Just putting a small peice of tape over one of the hole, and I get GREAT vapor now from my Smoking Everywhere e-cig. Just wanted to say thanks for that video and thank you all for the great info in these forums.

I have found that with using both of my fingers and modifying with fierce blockage, followed by a more gentle pressure, I can produce great vapor and inhalation from the Smoking Everywhere cigarette. Just blocking one of the holes doesn't do much for me. The draw begins hard with both air holes blocked, the battery LED is lit, and then after drawing hard, I give a little with both fingers and the inhalation is awesome.

I have to admit though...it kind of reminds me of how I used to smoke off of a different substance some years ago - you know, in my younger years.

Which begs the question, is there an e-joint in the works?
