Okay, so I'm not great with reviews....for me, I either like something or I don't. So I'm going to do a quick review of the penstyle manual switch cig that I rec'd from David Yang. And I really can't compare it to the Janty KB because I have never owned one of those. So here goes.....
First of all, it was all that David said it would be. It's no secret that the vapor with the pens I own has never been spectacular....nothing like what I saw in the videos....but that didn't bother me. I always felt as long as I was getting the throat hit, the vapor was not real important.
However, when I tried this new pen, I have to admit that the vapor was awesome. Part of it might have been the 4 hole atomizer (as I had been using 2 holers) but whatever it was, I finally realized what others were talking about.
Prior to using this new pen, I went to my daughter's house for Thanksgiving. Neither she nor her husband smoke (he's allergic) and there was no problem vaping. I went to her house again for Xmas with the new pen and I pretty much couldn't sit around them and vape because the clouds of smoke were billowing around me and my son-in-law kept giving me the "hairy eyeball"...lol
I mean, they both knew what it was but it really did look like analog smoke so they seemed leery. And I didn't dare do it around my 2 year old grandson....it just seemed like too much.
The draw initially was much lighter than I was used to but once I experimented with various inhaling techniques, I found I preferred it to the pen I had been using. Again, this might have been due to the 4 hole atomizer but I liked it so much, I gave my brother all my 2 holers and now only use the 4. It really feels good not to have to suck my brains out to get a decent hit. And I am getting the same throat hit I was with the old pen despite the lighter draw.
Since this is not a stand alone pen, I obviously can't comment on battery life but while using the usb, I discovered quite a helpful hint. Since the wire consists of a battery box, I can actually unplug it and carry it around. Since both my car adapter and wall charger work with it, I can use it in several locations, not just at my computer. When I went to my daughter's, it was the only thing I brought....no extra batteries or chargers. That was really nice!
I was also informed of a charger and batts for the little battery box on the wire, which I have since ordered. When I get that, I will just make sure I have an extra one of those batteries with me at all times but with being able to plug the cig into a computer, car adapter or wall, I don't think I'll need more than that.
I have now realized that my goal is to only use regular battery devices. I find it quite a pain to charge and order the regular ecig batts....just not my thing. I thought I might need a stand alone for public but honestly, I think I can rig something up where I can use a regular batt pack with it and it won't be noticed. I'm working on that now
So I guess that wasn't quite as quick as I wanted but in short, I would definitely recommend this for those who are looking for a manual switch. This has definitely become my preferred device.
Oh, I should add that I briefly tried the auto switch and batt when I first got it and it was the same...but I have only used the usb manual switch since. Again, I just don't want to mess around with charging that battery at this time.
So there ya have it. Happy vapin'!
