Am finding it fantastic, not quite as good as a real cig but is keeping me off tobacco. batteries don't last long :( am a chain smoker so have ordered another starter, extra battery and usb passthrough. This should last me, am finding a battery lasts me an hour of continuous use.


Good for you, best wishes. The pass through will do you well, I hope you fair better than I do. Mine will work for a few minutes then my PC will say some power issue via my USB plug, I think I have a faulty wire in my passthrough. My batteries last me a decent while, longer than an hour easily.

Bulldog--that error is common on some computers--especally Dell laptops, that why I use a battery powerpack for the USB passthrough. I have several that all give me a "overload" message but work fine with the powerpack. I have spoken with many others over at e-cigreview and they also report this error messege--mostly with the Dell for whatever reason, but the passthoughs work great with a battery pack--Sun

Glad to hear it MRL!

You will get used to using it and find all little tricks and you won't want to go to analogs!

When u get your usb passthrough, as u know u can connect to your computer, battery back or ad to dc wall adapter & u can vape for ever!

Good luck

Keep Vapin!


am looking for a portable charger, I saw a thread for a duracell usb charger and wonder if anyone has any links for a 901 usb charger apart from ecigs.co.uk as they are out of stock.

Hi MRL

SUN is Correct! It Does Not Work!

Their was confusion with the original Post On The Duracell Brand USB Battery Pack / Charger.

IT DOES NOT WORK.

It is actually just a rechargeable 1000 mAh Battery Pack.

It is good for cell phones & other small items only.

The e-cig power is to high for the Duracell battery pack to function / work.

Hope that clears it up.

Keep Vapin!
 
I purchased another small USB hub for my Passthrough. It has a direct power supply to the wall outlet and I don't even have it plugged into my computer. It's strictly for my e-cig charging/power.

Here's what I have
Belkin : USB 2.0 Plus Hub (4 Port) (I have the 7 outlet one too but it's full :p)

It's 30 bucks. This works for me because if I'm not at my desk, I'm out and about and just use a regular battery or the 12v USB adapter in my car for my passthrough.

Might want to look into a penstyle if you smoke a lot. My 901 heats up after about 10-15 continuous puffs (and has to cool down for 10 mins), while my RN-4072 will last practically all night without over heating.

Got my RN-4072 off ebay; works great. eBay Seller: eminiroyal: Health Beauty, Collectibles items on eBay.com Didn't buy it in a kit. Got the atomizer, battery and charger separate. Was less than $30 shipped and I couldn't have been more satisfied.
