The other day I was using my 901 I put a freshly charged battery into it without cartridge holder and suddenly the atomiser started cooking like an old bar on a electric fire this thing was cooking bright red I unscrewed the battery then stopped then tried again with the battery it started cooking bright red again so I unscrewed the battery which I put to one side then put a different battery in worked all right from then on
earlier on in that day I'd actually put on a brand new atomiser so whether that kick this off who knows. That atomiser is still working fine I tried that bad battery this morning and seems to work okay.but I don't want to trust it.
This might be a common situation that some of you have will experienced to but not me so I don't really want to keep this in my pocket any more
I think for long periods of time when not using I will start unscrewing the battery but as I have said this thing was really cooking. scared the hell out of me. Suddenly dangerous just came to my mind I just thought that the atomiser would probably never ever work again so this looks like a atomiser probably can take more heat than we think:confused:

No - its a faulty battery. I couldn't help but laugh when I was reading your thread. Let me explain. I have a battery that does this but it is an njoy battery. The other day I was at the grocery store and I put my e-cig in my front jeans pocket. I was standing in line waiting to pay for my groceries and all of a sudden my leg started burning. Now imagine me jumping and trying to get that damn thing out of my pocket without looking stupid. The atomizer was hot as hell as I tried to unscrew the battery from it.

People were looking at me like what the hell are you doing...

So far I haven't had another incident, but am very leary of putting an e-cig back in my jeans. LOL

The problem is we can't afford to have burning problems like this with the atomiser and batteries it might sound funny I agree jumping around with your backside on fire. The government's trading standards the law get a whiff of problems like these it would cripple this industry which none of us really want.
With today's technology I think the problems we get with electronic cigarettes should not exist period. I personally put all this down to quality control every time. Course I understand nothing is always perfect specially with new technology but I think this was all originally designed in 2003 so what's their excuse now you'd think we'd have 24-hour charge on batteries by now. Look at the progression in mobile phones as an example. But for just a simple device like this There is no excuse . We all can agree or disagree till the cows come home . I admit fantastic invention but I think it's about time the rest of the world- USA- UK-Germany and the rest of Europe use their finest engineers and get this thing right he ain't rocket science. As long as China keeps chucking these out I don't think we will get anywhere it will also stop us receiving inferior products and as we've seen rich businessmen from our countries you know the brands handing over a few thousand dollars adding their own name stamped on it and doing a photo shoot and videos saying this is our factories but behind the temporary signs in the offices and corridors there reveals the true company identity saying what a wonderful product they have. And we all know that they're all made in the same factories with the same quality control in China. I'm not trying to knock China they just need to sort out their management and quality control problems but I don't think that this will ever happen everything these days is supposed to be disposable and that seems to be the future but it would be nice to least get 12 months out of a product. At the moment I am trying every damp product out there top brands and copies you name it I'm going to try it. Personally I would like to offer to supply my customers through my company electronic cigarettes but the product has to be right
Anyway I am so so sorry if I have offended anybody with my opinion.
I've just packed my case with pocketful of dollars-camera crew and off to China. Oh and by the way I owned my own design and printing company so I won't have to pay the onetime setup fee of $160 for the artwork. And one dollar for printing each cigarette. We print pens packaging leaflets so I'm dammed sure I can print the barrel of a electronic cigarette that way I can offer you guys and girls my premium brand at a sensible price but I will have two print made in-and print the boxes and supply-US- UK-European plugs oh I forgot about your 12 month-5 year guarantee .oh how can I do this when none of this stuff is never done last that long well I can always go bust or start a new company . But Before I can ship them out the problem is I am just too honest and could not have it on my conscience so in less I can find a good engineer who can guarantee me a product that will last a good 12 months I will have two turn around and sell copies and give you all a 30 day guarantee and make sure that you know it is classed as a disposable item sept for the battery charger of course and I hope and pray your batteries and atomiser don't die on you for least 32 days that way we will all be happy
Please please please wake up and smell the coffee there all made in the same place or perhaps the same street. But we all love this product so much let's may be try and get this right. Here's one for you we all on this forum put a few dollars into a pot design a better quality product that we all agree on I will print e-cigarette-Forum.com on the barrel and packaging trade cost of course and sort out the problem out. But this has probably been talked about before of course. But the crazy thing is it is all possible and if we don't probably somebody out there with the same idea it just needs financing. Let's all put our money where our mouth is

As I said before I am truly sorry for ranting on and probably going off the topic but I think it is all related in one way or another

even a generic like the dse 901 has sophisticated electron chip control.. i dont think one of these could catch fire in your pocket no more than your mobile phone could.. it does happen by the way..

the 901 is quite clever.. for health reasons it limits a single draw to five seconds.. after five second it switches off.. it also count the puffs and goes into a cleaning cycle after xxx thousand puffs.. it flashes to tell one the charge is being initiated.. it flashes to say its flat..

all this is built into the little micky mouse battery.. apart from its short life span when used every day the 901 is a clever and well made device.. its pretty safe..

the older generation stuff dosnt have this level of sophistication.. its a well designed product.. the lie is in the price and the purported life span.. i have no problems with the short life span if the price is correct and the sellers make this known..

a safe good product is already here.. the short design life is down to the current hot wire heater coil technology.. i see no way around this short life span.. but if the product is sold to customers who know what they are buying and at a realistic price the good safe product is already here.. its the way its being marketed thats wrong..

so is the likes of njoy trying to sell e liquid at over 22,000 dollars a gallon to a gullible public..

It may not be able to catch fire - but it can sure burn the hell out of you. LOL

Can't help comparing the e-cigs we have at the moment to the early PCs of the 1980's early 1990's.

When I compare my old 360 to this one, makes the 360 look like an ancient relic.

As the technology and design of e-cigs improves bet in a couple of years time we'll be saying "We never used that did we?" sniggering while we say it:D
