Janty Kissbox Std. Classic vs. KB Yentl?

[Kimmiegrif]

yeah, that's the one I was talking about from Jane. As far as the kissbox the extended higher price has the usb and regular kissbox doesn't...am I right guys???? someone varify that for me plez. I have to say the usb is awesome. I am at my computer right now vaping away and not the bit worried about stupid batteries and are they getting weak and will my vapor change with battery depreciation. Does that make sense? Now the kissbox is delicate and you have switches that some have drowned when dripping. Some have had other issues but their customer service is excellent esp in the US. Their juice I absolutely love.

So the extra $50 for the Extended one just gets you the USB battery, the Car charger battery, and the KB Classic case (which is only $5 separately? Or is this casing different somehow)?

Okay, so the carts are more like normal ones...I wonder why they made them different for the Yentl.
And why oh why does the KB Classic not have the LED on the tip That sucks lol

Yeah I see now..I was just making sure it was just the extra items included, and not a different e-cigarette or something. Thanks. I just really wish the front LED lit up..why does it even have one if it doesn't light up?

Do the KB Classics still come slightly bent looking when all put together like in Dustin's review?

 

[Kimmiegrif]

no led extends battery. there is a little tiny red light in the auto switch but nothing in the manual switch. I think the carts are bigger cuz the penstyles just have more room and a different mouth piece. I don't have a yentl but if they are anything like any of my smaller more burning cig size ecigs...there is just no room for a big cart, in order to give you the closest experience to a burning cig as they can give you. The yentl appears to be the ultimate in quality and technology in that size near real burning cig size and the most costly, it is the only one that I know of that has the manual switch accessory and I think it too has a usb option. Yes you do get the car adapter in the more expensive version of the kissbox so you can get that "no worries battery issue" that I described in your car too. The usb does tie you to your car lighter or computer but it is a very light weight (my estimate with out measuring 60" long, maybe a bit longer) so it isn't like the normal say printer/ camera heavy usb cord. Hope that helps you. Email they guys at jantyus any questions they answer quickly and are the ones with the true specs of the items you are considering.

The KB classic is not "slightly" bent.

They improved their KB over the last 6 months.
The first version is different than the last.
So the old and the new do not fit.
Now they only have the new version.
Don't even worry about it,

 

[Kimmiegrif]

mine isn't slightly bent? Maybe it's the way he's holding it or that you have on the wrong glasses to be viewing it...lol...

 

[just4747]

Oh ok thanks you guys...thanks for dealing with a noob..I'm still so new to e-cigarette stuff. At least you guys are patient

I guess I just have to decide now..my downsides to the KB Classic are price, no LED (which I love having in my 901), and price of replacement parts.

And my downside for the Yentl is obviously the awkward carts and difficulty refilling them quick.

The KB Classic does sound nice and they are out of black right now..luckily I like the titanium more and my 901 is already black

I HAVE to ask one more thing, how is the KB Classic with that burning taste? Does it happen often? It's really important to me that it has minimal burning taste lol.

I have some thinking to do!

(And to Kimmie..if you watch Dustin's videos on Ecigreview: Review of the Janty KISSBoxes he states that the one he has is slightly bent when you connect the battery and other parts..but I'm sure it's not an issue anymore with Janty)

 

[sanneke]

There is no burning taste.

And if there was, you emial Jeff, and he'll sent you a new atomizer without cost.

 

[just4747]

Awesome, thank you.

Curious, for those of you who have owned a KB Classic, how often do you need a replacement atomizer? Replacement switches? Have you needed new ones at all so far?

 

[sanneke]

just 4747, one more thing, it does cost money to invest in a e-cig.
You buy the device, the carts and the juice.

Once you have those you will save money.

Right now I use maybe 10 bucks a week, compared to 35 bucks a week buying cigarettes.
Not only that, I do not smoke those cancer sticks anymore.

And that. for me, is priceless.

 

[Kimmiegrif]

I watched the viedo...maybe I didn't have the right glasses on. Seems you are right his is slightly bent! I was just teasing you. You are being a shrewd buyer and I respect that. I hope that you are getting all the answers you need.

Burning taste...well you can get that with every ecig. You just gotta get used to your particular unit. How you use it, and understand once the cart gets to a certain point you gotta replace it or top it off...I vote top it off, with some fresh juice.

If it is a kissbox Jantyus stress use their juice and their juice are great, right now there are some threads that say you should stick to their juice to keep your warranty. I stick with their juice when it comes to my janty products, but if you get Jane's penstyle too...she'll recommend other juices for hers and their might be different flavs and nic levels.

I think the next marketing level the suppliers have is if you want a warranty you should use their carts and juice. In a way that works for lots of reasons. One, the juice may be made for their device. Two, you keep a relationship with the supplier and when you have a prob they will be there for you cuz you are still supporting their buz. Makes sense to me.

Does anyone have any input on Jane's penstyle? electronic cigarette e-cigarette e-cig electric cigarette e-liquid : Pen Style e-cigarette
There is barely any info there about it and it doesn't even say it comes with anything besides 5 carts.

Is the Kissbox Classic's auto switch good? I almost want to ask to get 2 auto ones instead of 1 auto and 1 manual. I just like the idea of not having to use a button so I don't think I'd like the manual switch. Wonder if he'd let me do that. How's the battery life btw? No one commented on that yet.

 

[Silver]

IMHO if you don't take the manual switch, you're kind of missing a major point of the KISS Box. The manual switch gives you the right temperature immediately and as you have been able to see from Dusty's video, it therefore doesn't require a 'pre' puff which will also give you longer battery life. As you will read from most people's comments on the KISS Box, they much prefer the manual switch over the automatic because it gives better vapour as well.

From what I've read, and judging by my own experiences with the KISS Box Classic, battery life is generally better than other similar type e-cigarettes and because you have the option of using the USB when behind the computer or driving, that too will preserve the (separate) batteries which will thus prolong their life.

By the way, I do understand your desire to have a device that looks as much like a regular cigarette as possible as I was much the same when I started e-smoking, but after 8 months of vaping, I've found I actually prefer a device that looks as little as a regular cigarette as possible (so that no-one can mistake what I'm using for a regular cigarette) and (more importantly !) gives me the best possible vape. In my experience a (good quality) penstyle e-cigarette fits the bill perfectly. You know the old adage 'don't knock 'em till you try 'em' ? You might just be hugely and pleasantly surprised by their performance ! Just my two cents' worth...

Sorry, can't help you with Jane's penstyle as I have no experience of/with it...

Cheers,
Silver

Yeah, save a bit more and get a Kissbox Classic. I have wasted hundreds - probably thousands of dollars on e-cigarette products over the last 9 months or so and all of the e-cigs (and pipes) I've bought are now gathering dust in my drawer.

Since I got my Kissbox, I will not go anywhere else. Excellent product, excellent customer service - those things are well worth the extra $$.

The Yentl cartridges are difficult to top up because of the distance from the opening to the actual filler. If you drip directly in there the liquid is probably going to splash off the top of the filler down the sides of the filler container - you will get liquid in your mouth - yum. Not.

PS: Silver, I personally prefer the auto switch, but that could be because I got a good one! Hehe!

 

[just4747]

I will probably get one some day but for now I ended up buying the titanium classic pen style from Jane's site today as well as a nice black case to add to my 901 from Steve
They say hers is good for the price and I want to see how the battery and cart life really do compare to the mini I'll let you guys know how it goes...

How's the Kick Smokin' Juice from Jane? I also ordered a bottle of low strength apple to try and I've only had PureSmoke and Janty juice until now.

 

[SMILIN]

Janes is some of the best!!!!KICK ...
