LOL..I get through one of those 3000mah a day now.....:lol:

lol... if I were awake more each day, so would I. But I'll place the blame on my pass-through. I got tired of changing batteries all the time, even the long-lasting ones. My 18650's last what they do because I only rely on them when I'm out and about.

Never got into pass-throughs my computer doesn't like them, and I'm home all day so I found it very useful....:D

Well I am too old for the 510 - I mean I have been vaping away on the RN4075 atomiser since last year and for me it fits the bill - the 510 came out a lot later and I just had no need to try it.

I think I may be a bit peculier around here, found something that works for me and I dont feel I need to try every new thing on the market.

The 510 by all accounts does have good throat hit and has a lot of satisfied customers .

on throat hit with SD, it is very dependent on the e-liquid, and the e-liquid`s nic content. i have tried making 18mg hit like 36mg with PGA and my efforts are lacking something, my knowin what i`m doing most likely. anyway...

i use 16mg to 24mg as the all day stuff, i use the 36mg same flavors as a drip and top 3-4 times thruout the day. i made and used some PT`s that burn the atty at 5.01 vdc
(under load measured) and got the 24 to hit harder, but not the 16mg. so with that higher voltage, i am not sure about atty life span using it. yes a long dry burn with 3.7vdc seems to do the cleaning i require for my vapes. the 5 volt vape is good, but i know for me it will be a 3.7vdc device as my goto vape.

the answer to chuck or mk ll is hard, and it will always be up the the person using it that says yes this one works for me or this one dosent work for me.
of course my answer is an SD, and some spare batts.

i got the spare batts from DealExtreme just before trog put the spares up on his site, so i`m good untill the mk LL comes then will have to get that ones batts

I have had a screwdriver for about a year. Lately its performance has been suffering a bit, the button is getting a little twitchy, and I have been finding it a bit unsatisfying. I bought an Xhaler to tide me over while waiting for my Chuck. The Xhaler at 3.7 is far more satisfying to me than the SD, whether using a 901, or my preference, the 801.

Apparently, the Chuck is even better. The main reason I decided on the Chuck is the monster 3000MAH battery. I find with the little 16340 880MAH (they claim) batteries I change batteries frequently. I carry 8 of them around with me in my Case Logic diabetic travel case, and I can go through 4 or so in a day at work.

I don't have the Chuck yet, but since I got the Xhaler the SD has been relegated to back-up status, and for my friend to use when we step outside for a break. Once the Chuck comes he gets the Xhaler, and I get the Chuck. The SD will be for emergencies.

Unless you are working 24 hr shifts and vaping constantly.
You should be getting a lot longer out of the batteries than that - these sound more like ones that are on their way out .

I get pleanty hit from TW State Express 11mg not found any other supplier with 11mg that has a kick like this - Janty I need 16mg for the same satisfaction.

Do also need a new atomiser less than 3 weeks old and a good battery .

The last batch of carts I started using are causing me all kinds of headaches.
They are the RN ones but the filling is not right and they only seems to last 1-2 days before it compresses and for some reason shrinks back up inside the cart - this has been causing hit and miss vapour production and very little throat hit.
One minute its kicking the next flat as a pancake.
Took quite a bit of fiddling, cleaning and swapping bits around to figure out it was the carts.

yo, i have been thinking about that state express, i had to go to menwithill station near york, nsa base there back in `83, and smoked state express for a month. they were nice, too hard to find back in cali then, went to marbs. i held back because the taste of e-liquid, and my changed taste makes me wonder how i`ll like it, 11mg? my goto mg is 16 to 24, with some 36mg drips. well i am going for the five pak of e-liquid and maybe the mk ll. after 5 months i opened the white tube of flue cured that came with the SD mini, and i have to say that it is very very nice, this flue cured seems to a elusive, yeah i seen it at the china web site but dont want to wait for it.
lost train of thought, cooken turkey and sweet tatoes, and stufft stuffing with hot peppers,

ah state express, i make it one of the fiths
