About to give up and go back to cigarettes.

[DarKm4773r]

I'm so sick of something going wrong with my M401. This is a replacement and the previous kit lasted a week. This one, 1 out of two atties went out and the other is about to die. Mind you, this is only a week and a half into the new kit. I bought 2 atties from LiteCigUSA and now one of these are going out too.

My conclusion: Analogs are more cost efficient than these things. Too much can go wrong in a short amount of time and I'm not prepared to spend as much on e-cigs as analogs, but with added stress.

I am so sorry you are having such a hard time! I don't know anything about your model so I can't really comment on it. This would be so much easier to help someone in person instead of online. Maybe you just need to try a different model, I love my DSE901 and it has been very reliable for me. Alot of other people say the 510 is great too, please try a different model and don't give up! You can get a complete kit for a 901 from heavensgifts for about $30.

 

[DarKm4773r]

My problem is money and I don't have enough to just buy a new kit.

I haven't used the M series but I have read they are fairly reliable. We all went through a learning cure and you may be also.

Maybe a M user will come along and help.

By the way how are they going out?

 

[SmilingSlasher]

You should spend the 10 bucks on a disposable 510 kit from Madvapes. It will give you the time to adjust to the "learning curve". Every mod I have is using 510 attys. I've tried Cartos, J-118s, 801s, 901s..........510 is the digady, fo sho!!!

10 Bucks (plus 5 S&H) ain't much to spend on something that could keep you from going full on to analogs again.

Wanna also ask........
What are your refilling/drip habits? Do you flood the atty dead or fry it from being too dry?
What are your charging habits? Once it totally dies or when the vapor gets weak?
Do you have spare batteries?......this is important, if you plan on staying with this.

Give us every detail as to why you are having trouble, and what your habits are......lets get you right!!

They produce godd vapor at first, then taper down over only 2 days, then almost no vapor and there's almost no more resistance when I drag. It's like sucking on a straw. Is there a reason as to why it would do that?

I drip 2 drops with no filler in the cart; I never run it dry. I charge my batteries, even when they're not dead. And, I have 3 batteries.

 

[Wireguy]

Auto battery I assume? I don't use one but I'm thinking about it.

Wheres Fedor when you need him?

I have two autos and one manual.

 

[SmilingSlasher]

After you refill, do you hear a "gurggling" sound?

Have you unscrewed the atty from the battery and looked to see if juice is running into the connector?

Theres tons of things that can go wrong. But if the battery is still going and the atty does heat up man id blame the juice your using. Go to Michaels and buy yourself some glycerine ( its in the baking section ) costs like 3 bucks...

Go home and drop 2 drops of your ejuice directly onto your atomizer coil and then 1 drop of that glycerine. Ill bet that works good for ya.

You can also get glycerine at CVS i hear and those are 24 hours if your ina hurry

I never hear a gurgling sound; just a sizzle, which I've heard is good. I always check and clean the connectors when I have a chance.

Dont cook your atty for too long, let it rest in between puffs, overheating it will kill it.

I already have a bottle of VG. Thanks, I'll give it a shot. I just won't be able to be back on here until tomorrow because I'm at work and I have no internet at home right now. Being poor sucks....

 

[DarKm4773r]

I always give it rests between puffing.

 

[nawcho]

You have it at home but havent used it?

 

[SmilingSlasher]

nawcho is right about overheating.

How do you drag on the unit? Do the auto batts have cut offs? do you pull heavily from it multiple times in a row?

 

[DarKm4773r]

No.... I don't have the internet at home. I always have my e-cig with me.

It has a 7 second cut-off. I take slow, easy drags, but not til the cut-off.

 

[Wireguy]

As silly as it sounds it sounds like the atty isn't screwed on all the way. Doesn't sound right though.

We are all stabbing in the dark, not to make a play on names, If we cant figure it out now try bumping this up tomorrow morning and evening. Apparently the M series users aren't nocturnal.

Bump for an experienced M user.

oops just read the no Internet at home
