Enjoy it. It produces some impressive vapor and kick for it's size (especially with Cash e-liquid), the only drawbacks are that is has a shorter battery life and that you have to refill your carts often. I'm glad you didn't get ripped off for your like I did, haha.

Oh, I thought you were just saying that your PeeWee was the same thing as my SE Gold, which it is. But why would you buy a PeeWee when you already have the same model? At least you and I only got taken for $100, most people are buying these at $150.

Sunrise Mall seems like it would be a long drive for you, (not to mention that it's not the best mall anyway) you don't have any Malls that are any closer to you?

Once you start using other brands of liquid this thing is nice though. I don't know why but the liquid they use doesn't produce nearly as much vapor as say Cash liquid for example. I just realized that in the first post I said vapor production sucked, but in subsequent posts I said that vapor production was great, but I never provided an explanation for the change. It also seems like that atomizer improved in performance after the first few days.

Default I love my RN4081

At first I was a little disappointed in performance, but once I actually learned the proper way to smoke the thing, it chugs away just fine. Not to mention surprises the hell out of curious on-lookers who assume it's "just some fancy toy". The vapor is dense enough to actually blow rings with it. I do agree with y'all that it works much better on "after market" juice. I actually sat down and did a puff count the other day and got 35 puffs of good to average quality on a "factory" cart before it wisp'd out. By topping off a cart with some Camel Extra from e-smokeytreats, I managed to coax out about the same puff count but the quality of the vapor and throat hit was significantly better for each puff. And no doubt about it, performance is better with a freshly charged battery.
Longevity depends on how often I use it, but I now carry 3 batteries with me just in case my work day goes into overtime. I tend to hit it less when I'm using stronger juice so I can go nearly 8 hours on one battery, but typically its more like 4 or 5. I've also started packing 2 fully assembled units, one on a regular cart (for habit) and the other using the high test (for cravings.) By switching off between them I'm hoping to reduce the overall burden placed on a single atomizer, and thereby extend its life. I suspect that puffing the carts completely dry before changing them out is what causes the atomizers to burn out faster, because they may need the liquid to keep from overheating. So far, after nearly 2 months I haven't had any atomizer problems.
It's an old saying in the trades, "If you take care of your tools, your tools will take care of you."

Right on. I love my NPRO. Everyone bashes on them pretty bad, but I like it as much as my 901. Doesn't last as long, but I don't mind. Vapor production is good with a decent throat hit. Love the Silent Bob avatar by the way.

On my SE Gold, I normally carry 2 units. When the battery gives out on one, I go to the second. I don't use the same atomiizer. So for each battery I have a different atomizer.

I just recently got a PeeWee starter kit from Pure Smoker. Now I have 4 units (RN4081). got a small plastic marker case and carry them all in there. Same principle, 1 atomizer for each battery so I'm constanly rotating as well.

What I also do is when I'm done vaping, I remove the cart, pop the little stopper on and store it in a zip lock bag and place the atomizer cover on. This is so that while I'm not vaping, no e-juice is dripping on the atomizer when not in use. This (imo) will keep it from clogging before it's time and not have to worry about how I carry the e-cigs in my pocket or bag.

Funny, but when I first got the PeeWee kit, I noticed that my Smoking Everywhere batteries lasted longer than my PeeWee batteries. I also noticed that the PeeWee batteries have a shorter cut off time than the SE batteries, but yet, they are the same. This is weird. I'm going to pay closer attention to them to do a proper comparison. Now, the PeeWee batteries after 2 days of use, it seems as if the cut off times are now comparible with SE's but the SE's still last longer. Hmmmm

I'm going to have to keep an eye on this one. I think these batteries need a break in/charging period.

Absolutly yes, with a fully charged battery and dripping directly onto the atomizer, you do get good vapor and a throat hit. The Smoking Everywhere GOLD e-cig can not and should not be confused with it's previous models that suck. The only negative thing I have to say is the price. Other than that, it does the job. Now that I know that it is a RN4081, Smoking Everywhere.com and the folks at the malls will never see another penny from me until their prices are competitive with everyone else's.

After reading some posts here, people seem to feel the pen style gives better vapor hits... I wonder how many of you agree or dissagree with this.

Well yeah of course. Look at the cart size of the pen style and the amount of juice it can hold, the size of the atomizer and battery compared to the RN4081.

I have a kissbox and after using it for 2 days, the atomizer is finally broken in, and I am getting a great vapor hit from it. The draw is a little to light for my taste but it is a very good e-cig. However, I would not walk around the street with that huge ass thing hanging from my mouth like I can with the RN4081 or even put it in my pocket.

What's cool about all these sellers and manufacturers is that you have all different types of e-cigs out there depending on what your needs are.

For example I use:

Smoking Everywhere Gold / PeeWee / Eaze Magnum - Everyday use on the road/street, out of the house.

Janty USA KissBox - Working at my home office in front of the computer where I can sit back and really enjoy the thing via usb passthru or regular battery when around the house, watching TV etc.

DSE901 - In places where smoking is not allowed so as not to confuse people and avoid a hundred and one questions and inquiries as to "Why are you smoking here"? Ex: Airports, indoors etc. If it does not look like a cigarette (like the others) I wont be asked. Also used as a kissbox backup at home.

RN4081 has vapor and a decent enough hit when dripped on with a fully charged battery. It does the job.

For more information on penstyle hits, I would suggest you go to the threads where the pen styles are reviewed and commented on. There are hundreds of posts already up that addresses that question and comaprison to other e-cigs. It does not really make any sense for everyone to type everything all over again on this thread.

Let's try to keep this thread going on topic which is the RN4081 models and what users have done to optimize it's performance to best suit our needs.

Sorry it took so long to respond..I got side tracked.

Sunrise Mall...I meant to say the South shore Mall over on Sunrise Hwy in Bay Shore. Then there is the Roosevelt field mall where that crack head over there wanted..get this...$50.00 for a Smoking Everywhere atomizer!!

I don't want to repeat what I told him.

and yes, the PeeWee and SE are the same. I purchased the PeeWee starter kit to get my hands on another set of batteries, another charger and atomizer. This is so that for those long days I'm out on the road riding, I don't have to worry about recharging batteries, I'll have 4 fully charged on me at all times. Better safe than sorry.
