m401 and extras

[iformz]

Hey everyone, I just ordered my first ecig from eastmall this morning. Heres what I got.

1 m401 started kit
2 atomizers
1 spare battery
20 extra cartridges
and 5 20ml juice plus the 2 extra 20ml bottles included in the special sale.

How long do you think this shipment will last a normal pack a day smoker?

Wish my order luck
Thanks!

I use my Evo(m401) steadily through the day and I use approx 2 ml of e-liquid/day and two fully charged batteries. Been using 2 months and batteries/atomizers still performing well. 140 ml of juice will probably last approx a little over 2 months. I go through around 30 ml every 2 weeks. and the batteries should last for at least 6 months if charged once per day if they perform as rated

Thanks for the info. What about blank cartridges? Will they last me through all that liquid?

sure they will! The batting/filler is pretty durable. If they do start dbreaking down just go to a cigarette shop and buy the injector type of "tubes" - these have the cig filter - just unwrap the filter from the cigrette paper, cut it along the long axis (about 4 times), cut to length & you're good to go. a box of 200 tubes cost around $2.

Another advantage of having the m401 with the exposed atomizer is dipping. I just use the mouthpiece the atomizer comes with.. Check this thread out for more info:

You don't risk flooding the way you would with a recessed atty... and no risk of over-filling carts and flooding the atty.... the wick just sucks up what it needs. I have 20 blank carts, but have yet to use them.. Works great, and no liquid wasted in carts so may make it last longer. My original atomizer is still kicking like new and each puff tastes fresh.

I tried the dipping, works great. No drips on the lip either. I don't know if it's possible to flood these atomizers.

I just ordered a sample pack of 36mg, I was a pack a day guy for 35+ years and the 18mg I started with just left me hitting ecig too often and for too long. I think 36mg should suit me fine.

But it appears everyone is different, my coworker does great on 18mg juice.

I'm still on my first atomizer after 3 weeks or so and it's going fine. keeping me off the regular cigs very well. Batteries have been an issue, I have 4 and with the 18mg I'm using them all every day and I only have 2 chargers. It's a challenge keeping them all charged, but they are also the shorter smaller capacity 402 batteries.

Hopefully my order will arrive without trouble and the 36mg vanilla will be good. I should be able to go down to 1 or 2 batteries a day on that.

The atomizer on a M401 has a exposed wick , some people use a contact lens case to put e-liquid in and dip the bridge/wick of the atomizer into the liquid for a second, then vape away.

Thanks, I have a 901 and a 4081, can't dip with those I guess.

That depends on proper maintenance of your atty's and batteries. Make sure you fully charge the batteries before using. I know it is so tempting to try it out first, but you MUST charge them fully. My mom and I were pack a day smokers and I purchased a total of 90 ml and it has lasted us about 2 months. So for you, as long as you don't blow through the attys and batteries, the liquid should last you 4 to 6 months. You might want a couple of more attys and a few fresh carts.

Good Luck!

Just out of curiosity how long is the full charge time to break in the batteries on the m401?

Thanks
