Don't be a dumba$$...stock up.

[momswann]

Hi all. Just a warning to all of you...

I had 4 atomizers all die within a week. When 3 of them went, I quickly emailed Katy at thesmokelessshop.com ... She quickly put atomizers in the mail for me...but alas...it is the christmas mailing season and I have not rec'd them yet. Today, my last atomizer died. I have no e-cig. I have now smoked 2 cigarettes after being analog free for 4 weeks. I am really sad.

The moral of this story is stock up. Also, I rotated my atomizers, which I will not be doing next time, as they all ended up dying at the same time. I will use them sequentially next time. I will also keep more atomizers on hand....

Great advice!! I do not want to be in the position of craving foul tabacco. I will be making sure I am fully stocked at all times.

 

[ZambucaLu]

Not even safe with 4 atomizers on hand! Stock up is true....same goes for batteries....expecially if you swap them around. Never know when they'll just suddenly go kaput!

Sorry for you momswann

Well, y'all are freakin' me out.

I'm still a noob, but totally into the vapor rather than the smoke.

Almost bought a back up pack of analogue smokes this past weekend... just in case. Didn't, and didn't need to. Sweet!

It does seem you need to "set up" to e-smoke. Hardware, software, juiceware, etc.

It is a bit of a drag that the atomizers seem to die within months.

However, I'm confident this is gonna take off: skins, designs, cases, accessories: entrepreneurs should take note, imho.

Same happened to me.

My atomizer died and the spare had a problem. Back to real cigs for a couple of days before spares arrived.

I was actually missing the e-Cig!

Had been ... free for 3 weeks and the first real cig made my head spin for 2 hours.

Now I plan to have at least 3 good atomizers and batteries at all times.

Don't freak out Not all atomizers die that fast. My penstyle that I got from steve at Puresmoker.com is still pumpin out good vapor for almost a month now with NO problems.
Knock on wood, but it's all in how you treat it. If you empty it out or drain it after every use or even after every night it will make the atomizers last alot longer.

 

[Chris From Cali]

what's the longest you have been able to use your atomizer before it broke?

 

[Stemple]

Man, that's rough. Sorry to hear about that.

I know your pain, though, as far as the speed X-mas mail is concerned. Still have yet to get my e-cig from PureSmoker. It's gonna be my first one, and frankly, I'm dying to switch from analogs.

 

[SuperStack]

The Puresmoker att's seem to be very reliable from my experience as well. I ordered 3 several weeks ago and they're all performing top-notch.

Just keep them regularly cleaned and don't smoke 'em dry or near dry, should last quite a while.

Also... bypass the self-cleaning cycle if possible (by quickly unscrewing the battery from the atomizer), nothing good comes from that "feature".

 

[Mscoffee]

I've ordered more atomizers, I only have one that's working now and that's a bit scary.

 

[SMILIN]

I will never run out again, I always have at least 25

 

[momswann]

Well, thank God, I had a friend that was willing to give me one of her spare atomizers last evening, so I'm good again. I only ended up having 3 real cigs yesterday....

 

[jackolantern]

I will be stocking up as soon as I have the chance. I have not actually received my first e-cig yet (ordered it from thesmokelessshop.com, too) but quit smoking analogs a while back using swedish snus. While it is still a tobacco product, it is much safer than cigarettes (something like 80 - 98% less carcinogens). Very nice stuff, but I found out about ecigs about a week ago after placing a huge order for about 18 cans of snus. I will be keeping the snus in the freezer as a backup in case I am out of parts for my ecig. That's about 2 months worth of snus, so I should be good to never have to smoke another cig again

I have 2 901's now both have a spare att. I test them on arrival with a couple of drip cycles. Should I then be cleaning them out before storage?
