m401 / intellicig EVO

[petec33]

Hi,

What is the difference between these two as it is confusing me?
Also when i first started e-smoking i purchased a supermini v3 from v-cig.co.uk is this a m401 because i thought this was terrible, hardly any vapour... battery ran out quite quickly and always got liquid in my mouth.
Are the m401 / evo like this?

Many Thanks
Pete

GAH!! SERVER BUSY!

Here's a very brief re-cap of what I typed.

You don't have a 401.

401 batteries last a LONG time (mine average 10 hours).
401 atomizers produce an OBNOXIOUS amount of vapor.
The liquid thing...that seems to be just as much a function of how you use it as anything else.

If you do a search on youtube for "evo electronic cigarette" you'll find a review on there from igetcha (from this forum) that will show you just how well it works.

I'd post the link but I don't have enough posts, yet.

I didn't quite get what you were saying there. Are you suggesting that the EVO is better than the 401, or vice versa, or neither, and that they are just different?

 

[petec33]

Does that mean that the 401 is better?
or are they the same?

my understanding is that the evo and the 401 are one in the same. I have an evo, but it doesn't say 401 anywhere.

Ok, the provenance of the EVO has been discussed (and vehemently argued) quite a bit on the forum. Here's my sort of understanding:
The M401 is a model made by a company called SMOORE, and was around before the EVO. It is not an EVO knock-off, but is a more basic model.
The EVO is a custom-made M401 produced by Intellicig. The batteries are allegedly not from China and have been used with improved manufacturing techniques, the programming is a bit different, and the cartridge has been made bigger. In terms of size, shape, general design, and atomizer performance, I think the two are largely equivalent. So, the EVO is essentially (in my opinion) a pimped-out/luxury version of the M401, which I'd very much like to try.
