New Health e-cig model

OK, I'm in. Picked up a couple of nifty indoor r/c helicopters while I was at it...

OK, further evaluation; the draw gets too annoying. I said a 2 before, but it's more like a 1.5. I defined a 1 as sucking on wood, so I can't go that low. Also, I'm not sure the pack is recharging the e-cig battery. The led doesn't light to indicate anything, unless the pack is plugged in, and none of the literature mentions the pack charging the battery independantly of being plugged in . Third problem, the cheap paper box around the inner plastic shell. The lid is just cardboard, and will come off in a few days or so. Last, the holders for the cartrides and atomizer aren't secure enough and they slide out. Once the lid falls off, that'll be a real problem. All in all, the best part of this, and the only good part I can see, is the price.

Oh, but I do agree, TB, I like the cartridge design. I hadn't noticed it till you mentioned, and I checked. I might see if that'll fit into any other mini mouthpieces.

How's it going Leaford?

Guess this is argh or hotdamn. Oh well, the helicopters should be fun anyway...

I'm having my share of problems also, Leaford. The draw is just awful. Thick milkshake doesn't do it justice. But I'm starting to blame that tiny battery. Everything changes -- for the better -- when I switch to the old battery that came with an earlier Health mini cig.

The standard battery with this one has also started dying quicker. A few hours use and it needs recharging. The light blinks after drawing about a second or two. Very little vapor is produced during those short draws.

When I put the old battery on, the draw is very difficult, since there appears to be no air inlet. But the LED comes on quickly ... and stays on until I stop inhaling. The vapor is much, much better.

BTW: This will not charge unless the battery is screwed very tightly into the pack.

This is just such a great idea, but Health doesn't give us comfidence that it can produce a quality product. Are you listening, Ruyan/Janty? This is a great package with super potential.

And it's a great toy and conversation starter! It'll be a permanent "second" e-cig for me. Just in case.

Hi Bob

Is your old Health battery from the DX double pack (link below)? If I recall, that got a bit of a pasting from everyone who had one, but if the batts supercharge this little gizmo, might be worth having a punt on it.

That's what I was thinking Emp- order the two battery unit, then get the pack- and just use the bigger batteries in the charger (Might have to alter the pack to accomodate the larger batteries- but no big deal- A little duct tape and away ya go lol.)

Andyone try taking hte cap off the barrty yet to see if it improves draw?

[TropicalBob]

Emp, that's the one. I had one battery DOA and DealExtreme refunded me half the purchase price, no problem at all.

I've been testing a bit and found that the new battery doesn't seem to charge properly in the battery charger that came with the old Health unit. Not sure why. It charges properly in the pack, but not in the old charger. And the old battery won't fit in the pack. The pack's top won't close; the battery is too tall.

I'll post later on. Today is busy getting things out of the yard, running food and water errands, etc. ahead of the coming storm.

Bob- I just poke a hole in old Marlboro boxes to carry my loong around in- it pops up through the top, but meh- I don't care, and actaully it makes it quite handy to just reach in my shirt pocket, grab the ecigg without having to pop open the box, and just remove hte device- throwing it back in the box is handy too- no need to remove box, open- just pop cigg through the hole. I know it doesn't look good, but I'm not concerned abotu that really

What is the difference with this on dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.11211]DealExtreme: $29.84 Health Electronic 2*Cigarettes with Chargers and 10-Refills Set[/url] it has 2 and less then $15.00 each. Health Electronic 2*Cigarettes with Chargers and 10-Refills Set $29.84. Thanks

by the time you spend on this new one,and then the old one for batteries,you could buy a white 901 eco pack...and actually have a very good ecig,instead of two bad ones...

buying awful dealex ecigs doesnt make sense when there are good minis out there that dont require the purchase of another ecig for batteries.

it doesnt matter how cheap it is...clearly this product is crap.

good concept,badly executed=waste of time....NEXT...
