bought the mall ecig and hate it!!

[mjones]

Yeah I've had my 901 for 3 days now, and I love it. Like any mechanical thing it took all that time to work the kinks out. Soak the atty in hot hot water for cpl of hours to get the azzcrack primer taste out of it.

After a few tweeks here and there, I could run a pink floyd show in my office lol. I have found that a few drips on the atty bout twice a day help keep the atty runnin cool. I found that keeping the vent hole on the atty upright it stays unclogged for longer. Seems the juice tends to flow down and clog the hole faster.

I bought two attys and soak the one I use for the day and rotate them out. I find that the atty's last about 8 hours or so, before they clog up and you have to put the Michael Bolten with a vein in ur forhead puff on it. Just make sure you prime it with cpl of drps after you soak it and dry for atleast 8ish hours. If you take short one second breaks in your puff routine (let the light go off for a sec) you can bypass the cutoff on the batt.

Imho if you take short puffs and blow a small bits out to see if ur gettin good vapor, with the cutoff bypass you get mad vapor. I think with the short burst of puffs it seems to be easier on the atty, so far so good. Both my attys so far have been doin great (fingers crossed). This forum has saved my ... on my vapin experience big time. If your cig is hard to draw on the atty deff needs a good soaking. I would just like to thank everyone here for the killer info, saved me a ton of money. I think with a bit of tweaking you should be fine and see some big improvements on ur vaper. I'm not a master jedi yet but reading here and learning I'm well on my way. Gratz on you new e-cig, dont give up its the best thing ive done for myself in a long time.

I'm hearing a lot of inconsistency with these SE atomizers. Seems to be really hit or miss. Half the people seem to get one that works great and the other half have to exchange theirs.

wv2win, awesome, very well said and thank you for your time. Im new to ecigs, just recieved my first one about 3 weeks ago and I guess it would be more like the 901 but i got it from Choice ecig. I also agree on the eliquid for the refills, I didnt know about it till I started reading on this forum and yes much more cost effective. You guys are a great help and I cant thank you enough for your feed back. Im sure I will have more questions in the near future as Im sure we all do.

Another new member who seems able to understand good advice and doesn't find it too challenging. That's rewarding.

There might be a good reason for this. I have an Npro that I pretty well like, it works good as long as I fill my own carts and have restuffed them with batting. Once I had been vaping a short time I realized that I would need more parts and ordered two more attomizers and three more batteries. After receiving the atomizers I took the old one off and set it down by the new one. I saw right away that the newer atty had a much smaller hole on the battery side, hmm.

It works about half as well as the original, no smooth even draw but a hard labored suck must be used and smoke production is more limited. The new ones will do for spares but not as I had intended, having three complete ciggs ready for vaping. I have also found that by sucking harder I more often suck the juice through the tip, yuk. I am going to try to stick with the newer one all day and see if it might get better with more use.

Although i understand that you want the OP to give the SE Gold a chance since he has already spent the money for it, i think it was uncalled for to attack Wv2win for his advice.

Perhaps you should reread the thread. I made the statement that I do not agree with 75% of what he said. He then asked me to explain and I did. After that instead of addressing the things I mentioned he proceeded to engage in subterfuge attacking my experience level rather than answer any of the points I brought up.

I pointed out that he was way out of whack with reality claiming the SE GOLD is the most poorly reviewed E-cig when in fact it was the #4 ranked model in the last poll. He avoided that subject.

I pointed out that he went through elaborate explanation to suggest what was double the cost of the most economical place online. Again he avoided talking about any of this.

He made a wacky claim that "Many users like the classic penstyle 801 model" and the reality is most people on this forum are talking about moving away from pen styles. When was the last time YOU read a post from someone anxious to get their penstyle? Also something he completely ignored.

I challenged his opinion that the "only" way to get a good throat hit is with a manual unit. That is patently absurd and completely misleading, especially to a new member. Yet again he diverts the subject into contrived atomizer and battery risk that there is really no evidence to support. Didn't you notice that part where I asked for just 3 threads of people who had a RN-4081 die in this manner and he couldnt accomodate?

I made a statement, he asked me to explain. I, I accommodated and then that pile of trash attacked me in post #11 by starting his thread attacking my post count and closed his post calling me inexperienced.

Instead of discussing things he turned it into a flame war. If he wanted my opinion then he should have been man enough to take it. If he was not man enough, and apparently wasn't, then he should not have asked me to expand on my comment of disagreeing with a majority of what he said.

Why didn't post #11 address the fact that he basically lied saying "I've seen more bad reviews of the SE's than I think anyother PV". About the only bad thing said about the SE GOLD is it is crazy overpriced, and it is, but the hardware is not poor quality at all and things I have read on this forum suggest to me the SE GOLD is probably better quality than the PEE WEE.

Why did he start post #11 with a quote of post #7 and a comment that he did not attack my advice then he went on to attack what I said in post #3?

I did not attack anybody. I defended myself because he did all the attacking. Sorry if you guys are buddies but this is what I think of your buddy.

BTW
I'm done, you couldnt pay me to post in this thread again. Enjoy the last word.

It's a shame someone over pays for an average product and is so "whacked out" about it that they just can't help attacking anyone who just mentions they have seen people post that they have had problems with that company and product.

Here's another post on the SE (this poster didn't go off the deep end, just provided good information for others on the forum)

Hello, I finally found someone who has the smokingeverywhere brand !

I have had so much trouble with it..First the atomizer would not work and the battery security feature kicked in and made it so I could never use it again. So I went to return it to place of purchase..Wow no refunds only exchange and get out of my place of business the owner said...so no choice to get it exchanged. Second round with new one.. It worked great then again after one day the security feature kicked in, can't use it again..and the other battery just won't charge at all but the light is green and says it is fully charged e-cig just flashes and actually will not stop. so now I have to return to the rude owner for an exchange..This company will never refund money once you buy this product you are completely stuck with it , I guess all the money just goes into their pocket and never out of it.. I think where this item is sold the absolutely no refunds should be in a huge bold sign and told to customers before they buy not after when you have a problem !!

Any one else have this situation ? Or is it only me in the entire world like the salesman said...lol.....

Im sure your last post was nastier than what i read since it had to be edited by Sambucalu...but i'll let it slide because it clearly seems like you think the SE Gold is the best device out there and will not budge nor even consider the notion that there are better devices out there.

By attacking someone i meant just that. When you said " I disagree with 75%..." that was called an "attack" imo.

Basically by saying that line, you discredit any information wv2win is saying and basically you are saying to the OP "Listen to me and not to him because hes wrong"

wv2win challenged your experience because you only own ONE e-cig which is the SE Gold. You do not know how other e-cigs perform....you have no standards to which to compare. Well i own the SE Gold too.....

Im not saying you cannot post any of your opinions because you only own one e-cig, im saying that its rude to attack someone who is also giving advice.

You could have very well made your opinion without trying to discredit wv2wins opinion.

Also since you only own the SE Gold, please abstain from spreading false information to other members (specially new members) about how other e-cigs perform. In this case the 901. This bothered me quite a bit.

Wv2win is not my buddy. I am no ones buddy here. This forum helped me a lot when i first started out. I try to help new members like i was helped before so that they have the best experience with vaping and so that they do not have to go back to analogs again.

I called you out because imo, you were the one at fault. I would have called wv2win out too if he was at fault. Im sorry but im not here to make friends, but to help people. You clearly have other priorities in mind here.

You know, you really remind me of a fanboy. I mean we are all fans of a device to a certain extend but you take it to the fanboy level. Im a fan of the joye 510, you are a fanBOY of the SE Gold.

Please stop it, its annoying.

Edit* apparently dumwaldo does own another e-cig. I do not know which model it is. I apologize for saying that he only owned one e-cig when in fact he owned another one.

Edit2* I forgot to say that according to dumwaldo, his post was edited because of a picture, not the content of his reply. So i must apologize for that too.

Ps. the rest of what i wrote still stands though, he has still not shown me otherwise.

 

[snubber]

You guys just crack me up. Both experts and still haven't got a clue.
You've both only been on the forum about 2 months but have all the answers because you've read everybody elses threads. I come to this site to get peoples input on what they've tried and how it works. I know it's just their opinions, (and we know what opinions are like) but it helps me get ideas and lets me know that there are other choices out there. I've seen numerous videos about liquid and one says it's great and another says it's sheepdip, but it gives me something to think about for the next time I'm in the market to buy. What makes a super member on here? Just posting endless threads? You two are like a couple of school kids with the my dad can beat up your dad attitude. And that's just my opinion!!!!!!

 

[ghostvapor]

I bought an N-Joy, N-Pro at a service station. I really liked it, but, I too found I was having to recharge often and the cartridges lasted about 1/2 day. Which was ok, cause they were only like 1.00 apiece.

But, I found the pen-style on a website which is as long as an ink pen. It's battery lasts longer and the cartridge is huge. I bought the 24mg refill smoke juice, M-boro flavor and I love this pen. It has an easy draw and lasts quite a while. I just squeeze a few drops into the cartridge and continue smokin'. I did invest in a car charger so I can keep both my batteries full all the time.

DONT GIVE UP; THERE IS A UNIT OUT THERE JUST FOR YOU THAT WILL WORK!! EVEN THE MINI which is a little bit bigger than what you bought, but smaller than what I bought works great; my son has one.

 

[cherrypopwizkid]

Vapor, but...I WANNA be your friend... =(

 

[Vapor]

hahahahaha

I guess what i meant was that my main reason for me being here is not to make friends but to help people with the same questions i used to have and have been answered by others more experienced. Of course that includes to have my own questions answered.

Im the type of person that speaks up when i think someone is wrong and not afraid that people wont like me.

Dumwaldo sent me a private message and did seem very rational, but i told him that he was being really irrational in this thread because his favorite e-cig was talked badly. (hopefully my reply reached him)

I mean seriously, how hard is it to state your opinion without having to take a dig at someone else?

But that is all in the past now, i dont know if wv2win and dumwaldo has resolved their issues or not but i have replied to his pm (if it reached him) with my thoughts on this subject.

So lets us all hold hands and fight the common evil which is the FDA and Philip Morris.

 

[AGNES PEACOCK]

Surely, I can't be the only one who thinks that, there must be some SE salespersons on this site at least sometimes. Can I?

 

[cherrypopwizkid]

If there is, my guess would be it is a private ecig user who visits the forum out of personal interest in having there questions answered, and in answering others, and just happens to be an SE salesmen as well. I doubt it is a privateer with corporate agenda.

I say this because SE only gives the facade of orginization. They are successful only because they stay so low key and keep a low over head. I understood this better today when I had to call there South Florida office. The woman I talked to was very nice (almost flirtatious, but that could have been my fantasy-oriented imagination) but it was clear that the operation is relatively small. There call center being in the same location...almost the same room as there shipping area, was one indicator of this among others.

Plus as was mentioned eithier in this thread or in another one, SE is a gateway. They make there money with a high price on typically lower end starter kits. Very few people who start off with SE seem to stick with it later. They may enjoy, or may despise there SE it jsut depends, but it seems like sooner or later most of them move on to another product. SE doesn't require the admiration of veteran vapers at this point in e-smoking history. There is not enough of you to put a dent in there business plan, which is to target new customers completely unfamiliar with the technology.

Yes, se over charges as I found out but in the long run it might even out let me explain. Now I havent smoked any other so I really have nothing to sompare it to . I payed 130 for the kit with 4 extra boxes of cartidges . Ive also gone through 2 atomizers that they replaced for free , and one battery for free. now that being said theyve never once asked to see my receipt been different people there other than the person I bought my from. The way I see it yes you pay more but getting free atomizers and batteries kinda evens out dont you think?

Did you get entitled to those batteries and atomizers because of your warranty? If that was the case for all customers than some of that overhall on price could be forgiven a little, at least by me.

 

[captntripps]

yes 1 yr warranty but like I said they havent ever checked my receipt yet either

 

[Drewsworld]

Well said Justjulie..there are so many models and opinions it is sometimes overwhelming...but when guys start arguing on the thread, at least it makes it excitng!

 

[wv2win]

From a post today about dripping gumming up the auto switch.

wv2win is spot on, as usual. When dripping, fluid will migrate through the atomizer and into the battery hole. Get into the habit of removing the battery periodically and do a few hard shakes to get some of that fluid out. Also, keep a paper towel handy to wipe fluid from the bottom of the atomizer and top of the battery. If the battery switch is fairly gunked up, you could try a series of very prief inhales and exhales on the battery to get the switch moving.

 

[jesseg]

maybe you bought from the wrong mall i bought at a mall and i love it i may have payed a lil bit more than the rest of you but when i need help my mall salesman is always there and cant help to says he's cute so i dont mind if i need some help or to buy my refills but to keep it real dont be a sucker if you let them walk on you they will chop'em down some work it make the sales man wish he could sell it to ya. then if its garbage take it back but all malls dont suck just certain franchises that suck
