Having read this thread, i just ordered the KB today from their European site. Their news page says they're sold out and available in May! i do hope that's a typo or that i misunderstood, but my order went thru anyway and i'm crossing my fingers as i type. :)

My other car is a ........

No, sorry, my other e-cig is an Evo, which i'm pleased with.

I just got my Janty Kiss Box 2 wks ago and it was awesome when I first got it compared to the other two e cigs I tried. But now the smoke is less, I guess its because of it clogging and the atomizer is coated with old juice maybe. I am affraid to clean it with water or other methods posted here, but I do blow out the juice from the atomizer which helps. I blow into the auto switch and it does not work right now, so I guess I will order a new one. Seems its better to fill carts and leave overnight rather than using it right after filling, I think the juice is too liquid. Overnight I think it hardens a little and does not drain into the holes as much.

Just receive the whole box today after a long wait.......

Quality....it reeks of high quality...The Rolls Royce of e-cigarette....the build and finish of these new device are far higher than Njoy ....I got the Titanium and Silver finishes..very classy and superbly lighter than Njoy....even down to the Cartridges and the mouthpiece..very ergonomics and pleasant to hold in your mouth....Natural feel I guess....I love it...somewhat feels softer to the lips and teeth...good stuff...Now the Acid test.....

Ease of use....very easy and light to the draw on it...Lots of Vapour production and very flavorful..you can taste the tobacco back down the throat....mild aftertaste which actually lingers..wow..that was unexpected...very surreal feel to the tongue..High Marks for that....
The Vapour....dense and thick on every puff....somehow they have modified the cartridge to give a good yield to the Atomiser..lots of "smoke"...very very nice.... :)

Full of Accessories..they came with a Nice Silver Case which fits in everything except for the USB part, a USB Car plug charger and the USB is very good and different from E-Cig type..It has a rechargeable Battery inside and it works even when it is not plug in..way ingenious design..Top marks for ingenuity....

I'll try to load up some pics later on but I'll bet you guys and gals will be bow over this..so high quality and craftsmanship....makes the 3 weeks wait worthwhile.....

Compatibility of Battery...compatible to Njoy battery albeit slightly crooked after insertion and it works too.....The battery from Janty does not have a LED light at the end..so indicators lights..might please some users...

To sum it up...TOP MARKS 10 out of 10 .....It is worth the money..every cents of it!!!! :D

I hope others will review this soon....and I am sure they won't be disappointed..... :mrgreen:

I don't get these switches.. I have many switches now after talking with Jeff. None of them work. The manual switches only work with 1 of 3 atomizers. The auto switches only stay on if I keep changing how hard I am inhaling every second or so.. For the price they seem to have problems.. I tried the banana juice which is okay... The apple I do not like.. I will be out for some different flavors soon.

I've had my kissox classic for one week, and I love it. The cappucino and RY4 flavors are my favorite. vanilla is ok, and apple kind of sucks. Every 3 days I have soaked my atomizer in some warm water and blown through it a few times, and I've had no problems yet. Much props to janty, I actually like it better than analogs, and I've been smoking a pack a day of marlboro reds for many years. ;)
 
KISSBOX CLASSIC - JANTY USA

Got it yesterday. Gave the first battery it's 12 hr charge and now I'm vaping for the next 20 min's before letting it charge again for another 4 (as per instructions).

Initial impressions...

1. Janty forgot to include in the kit the USB passthru. I got everything else that's included in the extended kit (See website for more details). Sent Jeff over there an email last night about it and I'm waiting for a reply. Once in stock, took 2 days for it to get to me.

2. When puffing, good amount of vapor. When I inhale into lungs then exhale..hardly anything. That's not good for me. (Using automatic switch for now). I like to see vapor when I exhale (after inhaling into lungs like a real cig). Going to assume that it might have to do with either breaking in the atomizer, breaking in the battery or both. Going to wait till after the batteries are broken in and/or the atomizer before I make my final thoughts on exhaling vapor after inhaling.

3. I'm not crazy about the flat pen tip. I'm used to the regular round tips. I don't know, for me it feels a little to "feminish". :confused:

4. No LED at battery end tip. This caught me by surprise. I had no clue. I do like to see the LED Ash turning on and off but I guess I can live without it.

5. It is very well made. Metal casing seems to be of quality material.

6. Yes the carts are huge and can hold alot of juice. I have not dripped yet. I'm taste testing the Ryan carts that came with it that I'm very neutral about the flavor. Not bad, but yet not good. I guess it's an aquired taste.

7. For my taste, it is very big. It is exactly 6 inches long from end to end with all items attached (Cart, atomizer, switch and battery). It is in my opinion to big for me to carry in my pocket and carry it around. The case that came with it helps, but to put it together, vape then take it apart...seems like alot of work for me.

Overall, I can not come up with a conclusion for it at this time. Still waiting for the atomizer and battery to break in.

What I can say is that I can see myself vaping this thing while sitting on a leather sofa seat, in front of a huge fire place while reading a good book or the New York Times, sipping tea on a beautiful snowy day while wearing a very expensive bathrobe or a suit and listening to classical music in the background.........NOT!!!!:shock:

That's not my style...I'm a biker!!! :cool: I don't have time to sit on my ... infront of a fireplace etc etc...Shoot, I don't even have a fireplace. Anyway, I rather be sitting on my motorcycle on the open road riding from state to state and with the sound of my pipes roaring setting off every car alarm that I pass by :evil: while having a RN4081 styled e-cig hanging from my mouth not having to worry about the wind turning the damn thing off. I'm going to start looking into the cigars as well but need to do the research first.

I'm going to give this thing a benefit of a doubt and wait until the batteries are up to speed and the atomizer broken in to see what happens. It can be a pretty good e-cig to smoke when at home while studying or reading or doing some other type of administrative function at home. It might even come in handy to vape it in areas where you don't really want to bring attention to yourself with a LED light like for example at the airports.

My style is an e-cig that looks like a analog cig (White with orange LED and tip hence my RN4081's and Magnum) and have one to use at home or any other areas where a real looking e-cig might cause me uneccessary attention at places where smoking is not allowed (Restaurants, airports etc for example). Yes yes yes, I am all into educating the public about e-cigs and stuff like that but sometimes when I'm just trying to relax, I don't want to be bothered.

My e-cig collection to date is a s follows:

DSE901 - Black - InLife Prestige
RN4081 - Pure Smoker PeeWee and Smoking Everywhere Gold e-cig.
Longtotem V9 - epuffer Eaze Magnum
PenStyle - Janty USA Kissbox Classic

The Blue Knight - Max

I've had my KB classic a week now. It sure makes flavours taste different. It took 3 days for the atomiser to break in.

The liquids I have that have a peppery, harsh taste in my 901 have no harshness in the KB. It seems to smooth out flavours but they are def less strong than in my 901.

My manual switch busted on day 5, just waiting for a replacement from Harry. It's my evening vape stick at my PC using the USB, and I am happy with the purchase.

The batteries last about two hours with the auto switch and 5-6 with the manual. As I dont intend to use them much, I am not fussed about battery performance. I'll let you know in a few more weeks how I am finding it

Ok, been smoking this Kissbox for about 3 days now. All I got to say is...

NICE !!!

I'm getting great throat hits, flavor and vapor. More so with the manual switch than the automatic.

As a matter of fact, with the manual switch, the batteries tend to last longer as well.

Very addicting...

Gotta go get some more.

I loved mine until it broke, first atomizer then usb then I stopped using it because parts replacement was so high. I may break down and get another after trying the e-cigar. I'd say I got a good month out of it which isn't to bad considering my heavy usage. I'm still searching for anything that will last over a month.

My sister bought a KissBox Extended a week ago and we've been testing it.

I find the auto switch to kick out too quickly, about 2-3 seconds... just not long enough to get a full drag.

The manual obviously doesn't have this problem, but I don't like the whole button thing. I also find the drag has virtually no resistance and makes it hard to get any vapor.

The M401, which we also purchased, doesn't have either of these problems and has been far more satisfactory.

I own the same unit. You have to try dripping with it. That's where it really shows it true colors. Better yet dripping while taking off the mouthpiece and just using the end of the atomizer.:)
