Help - Not sure what I'm doing

[brett]

Hi All,

I bought an e-cig becuase I thought it would be better for me than cigarettes (have a kid now and worrying about long term health). Not wanting to drop a chunk of change of it didn't work for me, I bought a health-e-cigarette (I beleive it's called a Mini). The first one didn't work. I sent it back. The second one produces a lot of vapor, but only if I cover the holes in the atomizer and draw really really hard. The vapor and taste are great - when it works, but should it really be this hard of a draw? I'm not sure I should have to cover the holes.

Last, if it happens that I bought a crap brand (which I probably did), are there two are three that people would recommend? I would prefer something the size of the mini - but would go larger to get good vapor with a decent draw. I only smoke a couple times a week (when drinking)

I appreciate your help!

The mini (RN4081) was my first e-cig. I still like it. I got a 510 and love it. It has a manual button, meaning I hold the button down and can draw vapor in as long as I want. I would recommend the 510 or the 901, they seem pretty reliable. I bought my 510 from dietsmokes.com. Good customer service and fast delivery. He also has juice on sale right now for $6.99/15 cc.

Thanks for the reply - any idea why the battery I have is soooo hard to draw??? I have to cover the holes and suck my eyballs out?

Did you try covering just one hole? I find my NPRO (4081) works better that way.

I have a few 901 batts that have the hard draw to start problem as well. Just luck of the draw "-) with the auto batts and the membrane that turns them on/off.

I suggest trying any manual atty/batt for your model. That way you can draw at your own comfort level and let your fingers to the work.

I forgot something. If you look into the end of the battery you might see something appears to be of center. If so, you can shift to center with a piece of hard plastic. I used the curved part of a plastic coated paper clip, be careful not to use anything metal.

Brett, try covering the holes for only about the first 2 seconds your drawing on it and then uncover them and continue to draw on it. Those holes let in the air that you inhale into the atomizer. They need to be open at least part of the time you are using it.

Thanks all of you for the advice. It only seems to work if I cover the holes all the time. I'll try the coated paperclip. I read somewhere about dipping the batery in alcohal? Ever heard of that?

I suggest you buy one DSE084 .
84mm lenght (equal to a real cigarette).
Good vapour and there are two batteries inside the package.
I bought one from ebay few month ago and one from lallaboutique.com (based in Uk)
Good service and i'm satisfied. Cartdriges are quite cheap.
