I got a be112. Automatic- I don't recall that they offer manuals. I have a usb/standard battery. (if there is any other model that has a manual battery that fits or a site that carries manuals for that I'd be interested in that info as well). Manuals are rumored not to get this problem.


So I have got to the point of recovered taste buds/spoiledness that I simply have to drip. It aint happening any other way.


The batteries light up fine. (not due to age as one this this problem is quite new so I figure liquid buildup is the problem). I get almost nothing but foggy menthol taste as opposed to a good menthol taste with an un-repeated dripped battery (decent vapor but unsteady on the draw)

So in order to get function I have to either

-Blow on opposite end of battery (lighted end) to produce a very thick smoke and heat the sucker up and take a FAST tasty hit

OR do random sucking and blowing motions that make me uncomfortable :) and belchy from the proper end for a grab bag effect,



So what is a good way (w/o damaging battery- if I have to replace batteries weekly in addition to my atoms it could get ugly!) OF CLEANING THEM?

I have an air compressor and consider using it - but it is a real powerful sob. I can lower the flow but I'm not quite sure how much is too much or whether I should focus the nozzle to the light out the brass where the atomizer goes or from the atomizer to the light upside down.

Worries are I dont wanna blow it further up in and don't wanna tear tiny little parts all to hell.


Please advice as I don't really have spares to be guinea pigging with and I am doing something awful to my nerves blowing from the opposite end and racing it.

I'm not sure if there its a reliable way to fix it. If i remember right some have said to soak the connector end in rubbing alcohol and let it sit to dry? ( All while not activating the battery). I've had these apart and my pressure switched m401 has a round silicone? membrane. I think any fairly decent amount of air would f it up. I don't have these problems so hopefully someone else will chime in too.

Permanent fix. Get a sealed manual 510. I don't have one but hope to soon.

I actually have a manual 510 batt. There are several issues with that though


-It doesn't fit the 112 atomizer

-Titan atomizers are almost triple priced-I'm a real pincher- even when I smoked I was one of those bummers who would smoke you out of house and home. (key there is quantity of friends-irrespective of quality as most people will share 2-4 smokes out of empathy as they have all felt the hurt- if they refuse you got yourself a real ahole-too smart to be a friend with :)

-I already own a quadzillion atomizers for the 112.



Now goofing off I did manage to very carefully have the battery actually produce a little something w/o it fitting but pressing the button while holding it juuust right causes serious butter fingers and god forbid I drop it in the toilet or my cat comes by and snatches it? (idk)

As far as my reference to the 510, i was just indicating a good model with a sealed batt. Were you referring to the price of an atomizer being too high? You can usually get an atomizer for 10 dollars or less for the 510. Such as litecig and cignot. Cignot will sell you a batt and atty together for 20 dollars.

I know myself included have had good luck making nicowolf's mod (it's the size of a aa box). You can put a big ... push button pretty much where ever you choose on it. Pretty cheap to make too.

ah I grew impatient and tried it on my battery (usb)

Took off atom and I air comped (angrily without remorse) it from the usb hole end (lighted).

Some liquid came out onto my hand. Didn't quite do it though so I tried from the brass atom connector end.

Battery failure. No light no nothing after that (guess it blew up in somewhere). I swung the cord around lin circles madly and blew it from the usb end with the compressor again.


WORKS nicely again!


So it seems the logic is

-Have strong air source
-Blow it down- up seems like a really really bad idea (something up there fails totally if it gets wet) so hold it where it comes out brass with gravity and all on your side and blow from ashy end.



Yippee don't know how long it will last but after 3 and a half hours of trying stupid things,waiting impatiently to dry??, and building my mouth muscles and reflexes chasing the smoke I can finally get my fix and get some freaking sleep!

Hey tell me about the prodigy if you would

1- What exactly is the name/requirements of it (be112 atomizers)
a- Does it require special batteries, function with these 112 auto's,etc..


Where is the cheapest place to buy it (im looking at puresmoker.com to try and figure out exact compatibility/requirements)


Any special kind of usage tips I should know (like not dripping with an auto which I am learning the hard way!)


Thanks steve for the link on the nicostick- doubt I'll use it as I'm useless at that stuff.


P.S. Aircompressed battery lasted all of 20 or so minutes. sigh utter failure.


Sorry if I double posted I keep getting logged out and grab bag as to whether the post goes through-sick of typing.....

The Prodigy is one of the premiere devices and is only sold and manufactured by PureSmoker.com - Home of the USA Built PV !!!. It is a 5 volt device with batteries than only cost $2.50 to replace instead of the $12 - $20 for the small batteries such as the traditional 801 penstyle device. The batteries last 4-6 hours on one charge and can be recharged 1000+ times in comparison to the traditional batteries that wear out after about 200 charges.

Since it is a manual device, the battery compartment is sealed off from the atomizer meaning no liquid can get in the battery area and you can drip with no concern of hurting the battery.

Also, because it is manual and because of the bigger 5 volt batteries, the throat hit and consistency is FAR superior to any of the small devices. It can be used with the 801, BE112, 901 and 510 atomizers.

Due to the inexpensive batteries, it pays for itself over time.

The only drawback is if you try it, you will never want to use a small device again.

Hope this helps.

What I meant to ask was what of their products do you use with the be112 atomizers.

They have

Pen,mini,510. I know it won't be 510 and my guess would be pen but at "premiere prices" (as opposed to $12ish for a bat/atom on be) I don't wanna be guessing :)

It looks awesome and like it would give so much power the smoke and flavor wouldn't have power restrictions (goood) and everything appears to be designed for leak proofing (GREAT-so glad you mentioned it never heard of it prior!)


So I was thinking pen (if it is compatible with 112 atoms cause I bought a TON of them and refuse to use any other atomizers for a solid year+).

I am just as confused as to what is compatible with usb (which I would also want as I have a usb to power cord and usb to cig charger which gives me serious insurance!)

They have 901,801,510 and honestly I have no clue whatsoever goes with my atomizers which stops me from going further with it.

They also have individual adapters and switch houses for both types which I don't know if are just spare parts or some special adapter I will need to use my atoms.


I'm sorry I'm just extremly conservative in this decision as I would go :evil:

if I made any more oversights. Throw in the fact my air compressed battery seems to have croaked and my other automatics are weirding me out by lighting up on their own,staying lit a long time after draws and blinking when fully charged leaves me concerned on how much time I have to figure this out and make an order :|


I ain't never going to be able to sleep, I thought that my woes were over once all these atomizers came in. Oh boy, even if I had to fall on cigarettes they taste awful to me now!

These ecigs are ruining me I tell ya ruining me.
