|  E-cig.com trick I ordered two e-cigs from e-cig.com. Mine never worked and my wife's worked for two days before crapping out. My wife's crapped out because she added some vanella extract to the cartridge thinking it would make it taste better. It clogged up the atomizer. Mine never really worked from the begining. After reading how to clean atomizers with warm water, I figured what the hell. My wife cleaned hers and it started working again. She cleaned mine and it started working too. I don't know if e-cig.com is recycling atomizers or what but mine was clogged when I received it. It smokes good now, not as good as some others but it is not DOA like it was. She rinsed the atomizers in hot tap water for a few minutes and soaked the atomizers in warm water for about 10 minutes. No big drying time. Just took a hankerchief and screwed it in until it made it to the screen. Blew in the battery end about three times to clear the atomizer and then put in a cartridge and puffed. Worked like a charm. Both e-cigs work now. Thanks Brian |

| Welcome to our world. Atomizers and batteries seem to have a mind of their own. One minute they are dead, two weeks later for some unknown reason they work. One day they smoke great the next day they are on strike. All we are asking for is consistency. |

| SOme days, none of my e-cigs will give me a good drag. That's when I wonder if it's me.

| Well, washing the atomizer didn't last long. It started crapping out again after two days. Got frustrated with the thing and bought an nJoy. The nJoy is a great product. Too bad they charge soooo much for cartridges. Much as I like it, I'm sending it back as soon as my Janty KISSBOX arrives. My wife already has hers. Another great product. The heating element on the atomizer looks the same as the nJoy. Kinda like a cat's eye with the ring of ceramic very visible on the inside. Anyway, I appreciate all the work and research you guys have done. This forum is very enjoyable and helpful. Thanks Brian |

Just got my KISSBOX today. Planning to give up cigaretts tomorrow. Also got an order in from e-cig.com. I ordered two atomizers among other things. One looked good. You could even see some ceramic around the steel mesh just like nJoy or Janis. The other was just a bunch of metal fuzz that went half way up the atomizer. Threw that one away. Sad you have to have spare parts for your spare e-cig. Brian | |
