How many users here have a 4xx series and use the bridge atty? Am just wondering if they are faulty than the regular ones that comes with the starter kit. Well i have order my starter kit with the bridge attys 2 of them infact . The first one started to taste bad after a while when i finished the the starter cats i started using Johnson Creek juice. That's when i got the burnt taste from the first one..I started to dry burn it a bit got back my sweet flavour then burnt again until i gave up and dipped it in some boiling water.Honestly since i did that it been doing good so far.. But my second atty i decided to break into it.. got a good few outta it but all of a sudden it starting to vape less.. More like it's dieing.. i have not even used it a week max as yet.

If anyone has the same issue would be helpful to know if to go order the old attys or the bridge type

I didn't know there was a difference- Can you post links or pics to show both?
I am now wondering which mine are considered... I have been using since the beginning of this month... I have another that I haven't even opened yet! My other two are still going... one was dropped, it messed it up at first but then I got it back working at about 70% of original... waiting for it to dry out still from this last experimental soak I gave it to see if I can get it resurrected completely... only deal was when it dropped it flattened the top of it... has to be the only problem at my fault... the other is strong at almost a full month of use! Please show me links to see both "type" thx!

All M4xx atties are bridged. Far as I know there is only one type. Never seen any different.

I've never seen any atomizer without a bridge no matter what model it is.

Well i bought order mines from a fellow in the caribbean. So when i meet up with him he showed me two kinds of attys...

The normal one (which i have)

then he showed me a regular one that has 1 hole in it to the side.
instead of the double open bridge ... reason am trying to figure which is better

I see the one that is associated w/ your vendors site- That is what a 401 atty looks like- I am not sure what you mean by a "regular" one- interesting to see-
Aaaaaagh!!! What is "TT" - Those prices look to be absolutely frightening!!
$525TT - I hope that is not Tax & Tags- LOL
Is that American Dollars??
The type you have is the type we all have- it is all I know, as well as Houdini- as he stated... I can not say for your source... check out some suppliers here and get a new atty and try it - you can get as low as $7- plus shipping... along w/ many other things if you need...

I have to admit that I have absolutely no clue what the OP was/is saying. If English is not your native language, please try to describe your problem again.

tokarev · 10-28-2009, 05:27 AM

I don't understand what the op is describing either. Sounds like he is describing a 901 atomizer.

I HAVE had a problem with M401 attys not producing well, though. Of the 8 or 10 401 attys I have used so far, only 2 of them produced really good vapor. The rest were just "wimpy" right out of the box. Dry burning sometimes improves the performance, but only temporarily. I also managed to fry one of them doing the dry burn. I have been quite disappointed with the 401 so far, although when I do get a good atty I enjoy it almost as much as my 901's. Fortunately, I have several other pv's and the M401 is not my primary device. I use it only occasionally when I want a small, "cigarette" sized device.

WarrLordd · 10-28-2009, 09:44 PM

Hmm so should i switch and get a 510 or a 901?

tokarev · 10-29-2009, 04:52 AM

So far, my favorite (stock) devices of the several I have tried have been the DSE901 mini and DSE801 penstyle. If I had to pick one stock, off the shelf device I'd have to flip a coin between the 801 and 901 types, especially now that manual switch batteries are available for both.

But my current primary device is a mod - a Puresmoker Prodigy with a DSE801 atty running at ~5 volts. The Prodigy is enormous compared to an M401, and high voltage to boot, so maybe I'm not a good role model.

(Honestly, I think I could use the Prodigy as a self defense weapon if I get mugged!
