You actually get a throat hit from the RN4081 (Smoking Everywhere Gold)

[Jim Davis]

A lot of people mention that they have to draw hard. The mouthpiece end of my carts have a end cap with a single tiny hole. I have a tiny screwdriver in my kit, and use it to pop the end cap off. With the end cap off, there is a about a 1/4" recess, and another somewhat larger hole. It's much easier to draw with the end cap removed.

Please be very careful if you're going to attempt making your own juice. Make sure you research the ingredients thoroughly and completely. This is your health & life you're messing with. Some seemingly harmless ingredients can be extremely harmful when heated or vaporized. Just a word of caution.

Hey All...
I have been using my SE Cig for 10 days now and am so glad to be smoke free!! Luckily I viewed igetcha69's vid on youtube about draining the atomizer. I totally soaked my cart and flooded it and thought I had broke my atomizer! I now know how to fill the old carts and drip properly. The only thing I am confused about is the term "Throat Hit." Is this the slight tinge you get in the backof your throat on the sides? Sorry for being so ignorant. I too got worked over on the price (bought it at the local mall here in oklahoma city for $90) but I get an incredible amount of vapour from the smoke plantation's Marb/High juice I bought, and it is QUITE satisfying! Please help me learn what a throat hit is, also if anyone could recommend replacement part for my cig that would be awsome! Im not sure of the model number, it's small like a filter king traditional cig, it came in a black box w/ a wall charger and 2 batts. Thanks in advance for all advice!

I've never heard of an e-cig the size of a regular cigarette, the RN4081 is a little bigger then a 100 cigarette, but I thought that this was the smallest model.

As far as what throat hit is, apparently what it is depends on who you ask. There seems to be 3 different ideas of what throat hit is, but it's basically the feeling you get in your throat like from hitting a cigarette - the feeling of smoker/vapor being inhaled. By saying throat hit some people mean it's the harshness, others say that it's the tightness you get in the throat from inhaling smokerm and I forgot what the third view is. With some low-quality e-cigs if you closed your eyes you wouldn't even know that you were inhaling vapor, because they have no throat hit, while other e-cigs give you as much of a throat hit as regular cigs do. Most people are looking for a strong throat hit, that feeling of vapor being inhaled, because just seeing it being exhaled doesn't give you the same satisfaction on feeling a nice thick mass of vapor (or smoke with regular cigs) being inhaled and filling your throat. Do you understand what is basically is now?

I am a newbie! I have had my RN4081 for about 3 weeks. I am really disappointed! It has a very hard drag, not very much vapor, and I feel that I have to drip very frequently. I smoked about 3/4 pk a day of Marlboro Lights. I was hoping that this e-cig would help me stop smoking cigarettes. It has helped a little. I am down to about 5-8 cigs a day. I just don't feel the satisfaction with the RN4081. I have extra batteries, atomizers and liquid. Nothing seems to help! I have been looking at the DSE901, but not sure if it would produce enough vapor. I am on a very tight budget so I am trying to do as much research as I can before I make another purchase. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

My JOYE306A is shorter than my Newport 100's and only about the same thickness, just a tiny bit thicker.

That's odd, once I started dripping and filling my own cartridges I was getting a pretty decent amount of vapor. You shouldn't have to draw hard at all though, no matter how hard you draw, you're going to get the same amount of vapor. I can inhale lighter on my RN4081 then I have to on a real cig. Try inhaling lightly, just enough to light up the LED, and take a long steady inhale until the LED starts flashing. The way you're supposed to inhale with an e-cig is a lot different then the way you inhale with a regular cigarette; this is a very common problem among people new to e-cigs, I myself was doing it wrong in the begining too, and getting frustrated. Try that soft long steady draw and get back to me.

Thanks DC! I have definatley been getting throat hits from day one. However, the sorry carts that came with my kit were AWFUL! They made me want to puke. Since I have been dripping and filling my old carts w/ e-juice from Smoke Plantation, I get hits just like a Marlboro Red/Light!! I love it! Now as for the length it IS a bit longer than my 100's Marlboro Light! That's a traditional cig to me. To craftmaker, I find the softer/longer draws produce the best vapes. At first, I was actually plugging one of the atomizer holes to try and get a denser vape, now I dont even plug it. I take softer longer draws and get denser vapes than when I would plug the hole. Try to think of it as taking a drink from a soda straw! I was dissapointed when I started as well, but now I would NEVER go back to cigarettes!! Good Luck!!

Thanks so much for the advise!! Will try and let you know!

Craftmaker,

If you're having a problem with dragging, try vaping without the white cart inside the orange mouth piece. This of course means that you'll have to drip on the atomizer.

I have found that with the white cart inside the orange mouth piece does give me a little harder drag vs an orange mouth piece without the white cart.

Incase you don't know, you will constantly be dripping because dripping on the atomizer (Normally 2-3 drops) ideally gives you about 1 cigarette's worth of vape. This is great if you don't want to overvape and/or turn into a marathon vapor like many of us have done, myself included.

Also, this is wierd but it works for me. When I use batteries from Smoking Everywhere, I drip and use the orange mouth piece without the white cart inside. This gives me a great amount of vapor and throat hit. However, when using the PeeWee batteries, the drag is too light so I use the orange mouth piece WITH the white cart inside to increase my drag a little (I still drip thou).

Another note on the PeeWee batteries, the cut off time is about 3 seconds. The SE batteries gives you an extra 2-3 seconds of dragging. This really make me believe that although compatible, the 2 battereis are not made by the same manufacturer. Although more expensive, I get better performace from the SE batteries. Opinions may vary so this is just mine.
