Classic Pen Style Fantastic!

Earlier in the week, I got a mini from Steve at Puresmoker; it was a great choice as a newbie, but after a day or so, I felt like I could probably do a bit better. So I ordered and just received the classic pen style from Puresmoker today.....WOW! What a difference from the mini! Huge amounts of vapor and the carts last quite a bit longer than the mini. I think I found my groove now...me happy. :D
 
Although I'm relatively new to this, I will have to second that motion of not needing to look any further at this point.

I go my pen yesterday and had more vapor than I needed and the cart lasted pretty much the whole day and a bit into the morning before I had to top it off.

The 2 batteries that I got, lasted a few hours each after their initial 12 hour charge, but I have the usb pass through, which kicks you know what.

The only reason I used the batteries today, was to make sure they worked. I am now back on usb pass through and will always use that at home. I will keep the batteries for when I'm out and about.

I also have the usb power pack on the way, oh boy!
 
The most vapour for the buck does appear to be Puresmoker's classic 4-hole pen plus the USB passthrough. It's quite affordable and performance is outstanding compared to other solutions.

With the optional and affordable APC mobile power pack, a person can vape anywhere and create serious plumes. I truly believe that is the best way to go at the present time.

I'm with you. I just started yesterday and am loving it. I will be ordering a huge supply so I never have to worry about running out.

I am--I do not want to ever smoke another analog again (its been two months now)!!! I can not run down to 7-11 late night to get a "pack of atomizers" --so I am prepared and totally out of control!!!!!!:cool:

Just got my pen yesterday with USB battery from Steve. Way more vapor than the 901s I've been using. I do seem to be having a wicking problem with the carts. Brand new blank carts filled with syringe from the bottom. After the first 10 puffs (I tend to do 3-4 pretty quickly) I seem to only get 2 puffs before I have to put it down for a few mins. to let the cart wick down to the atomizer. If not, I start to get a burnt taste. After a few mins. I get another 2 puffs. This can go on for hours so it's not that the cart is dry. My first fill floats a thin film of juice on the cartridge top. I can top up with 3-6 drops but still only get a few quick puffs before I have to let it rest. I went to the pen so I would not have to top off so often as with the small 901 carts. Any ideas???

gryffandor, I'd say experiment with your power supply. Try a powered USB hub, or a mains USB power supply (making sure the amperage is at least 1A or 1000mA). If there's one thing I've learned from my SD, it's that enough/the correct power makes all the difference in the world!

Using just a penstyle, I used to be able to get only 3 or 4 drops in when topping off a cartridge. Using my SD with the same penstyle atomizer, I can fit in 10 to 15 drops, meaning the cart is being wicked out much more efficiently, and the only difference is the power supply.

I too am a fan of the penstyle. Jumped in before I'd seen this forum and bought a super which quickly proved to be insufficent for me, moved on to the 901 which isn't too bad and then found the penstyle, perfect. Added a usb passthrough recently and waiting for the usb power pack. Already have loads of batteries and atomisers and liquid and I can now withstand a siege........

You got an adaptor? Where from? Who?

I got my 4072 yesterday and I'm giving it a workout now. I got this really for when driving as the SD/901 combo drinks the juice from the cart. I am also seeing a slowness in wicking from the cart.

Thanks Yvilla but I'm using a 3000mAh power pack that delivers up to 1.5A output so I don't think weak power is the problem. I get the same result directly from a USB 2 port on the computer. If anything I'm wondering if I'm supplying too much power?

Well, how about the possibility that the particular atomizer you are using is not connecting as well with the lead on the USB battery? (Remembering some posts from a while back about that).

I just don't think it could be too much power.
