Actual 801/901 Connectors

[TDM]

Maybe this should have been posted here instead of buried.

Found a supplier in china who MAY be able to get the actual 801/901 connectors. Would there be any interest in ACTUAL connectors for mods??
No more cutting up batteries or making them out of phone jacks.

Supplier wants to know if it would be worth their time to find them. What do you think??

If they can find them I will give out the suppliers name and you can contact them directly. Dont want them slammed with e-mails until they say they can get them.

Keep fingers crossed!!

I would definitely be interested in 901/801 connectors if the were available for a reasonable price including shipping.

I asked this very question on the Suppliers forum.. as long as they are reasonably priced I would love to order some 801 connectors... I don't have any 901's but Im about to need to reorder stock so I might throw in some 901 atomizers with my order...

Count me in.

Ooooh, I want to make a 901 mod for vaporking carts, and I don't have a 901 battery. I hear that you absolutely need an air hole in the connector, so yes, I would love some 901 connectors. Count me in! As for 801s I might also be in, save me some time on making them!

Supplier is watching thread. As soon as she finds them. I'll post her contact info. Funny thing is she couldnt understand why we would want them?? Sent her secondhands and trogs websites

Ya, I would be interested in those 901 and 801 connectors myself...

 

[Nuck]

I'd love to see them available.

...and 401s too (Oh please, oh please, oh please)

I mentioned the 801 and 901 because figured they were the most used. But would figure if here helper (scrounger) can find 801 and 901 he can find anything.

I take some 901, 801, 401, 510 connectors please

ok folks here is the deal........

801 and 901 are made at one factory. She can get connectors no wires conneccted to them you would have to solder wires to connectors yourself.

Only 1 problem and it is a BIG PROBLEM!! they don't want to sell them. they will sell her 1000 of them 1 time for $3000!! $3 a piece

She has agreed to take pre-orders Once she hits the 1000 piece mark of either the 801 or 901 connectors she will buy them and ship them out. But they need buyers for the connectors before they will buy them\ from the factory

 

[TDM]

I sent msgs to trog and Secondhand. Maybe we can give order a boost. Does anyone know if trogs connector is homemade or actual connector??

 

[esmkr209]

$1.50 from Radio Shack or $3.00 from someone that won't get them until 1000 pieces have been pre-ordered (maybe a year from now). I'll stick with Radio Shack.

Thanks for the effort though.

I would be interested in 901, 801 and 401 connectors!

This connector works great for an 801.

Radio Shack #274-252. 1/4" audio jack.
2 for $3.00.

So much for trying to get connectors. Secondhand doesnt need and Trog is so da** distrustful of everyone he accused me of being a sceamer and a scammer!?!? I will speak with a gentleman when I get home next weekend. He owns some factories in china (not e-cig factories, buttons I believe). Maybe he will be able to get what modders need.

What might be an idea is:

if someone wants to set up a little business and has the cash to invest in stock:
selling kits of parts. I'd say the NicoStick would be a good choice.

You would get the proper atty connector, case, switch(es), battery (the one normally need to get from China if not to cost a fortune), perhaps some wire and an LED and resistor.

It would be worth the kit maker to buy the connectors in bulk, and I suspect the price could be brought down to $399/1000 with some bargaining (I have some experience in China). The batteries could be shipped at the same time as the connectors.

Would you buy such a kit ?

Do it yourself screwdriver kit $49.99. Can see the website now. hehe

Grin. Now you guys are cooking. The disposable atty/cartridge combos are available online for $.90/ea @ 1000. So, yeah, the connectors by themselves should be available for at most a third of that cost.

Predrilled and/or machined battery boxes, flashlight bodies, plumbing tubes, jewlery cases, etc could all be offered with the kit. All ya gotta do is solder and glue it up. And if ya can't solder, there's push on terminals. Now, what would cha pay? Your choice of batteries are included. Your choice of atty connector. Your choice of auto or manual switch, passthrough, or solar powered beanie cap. Lifetime guarantee.<sup>1

Well, I thought it a good idea. Better than getting the parts from all over. And with a real connector (the tricky part normally) and push-on connectors (no soldering) it could sell quite well ...
