Well my health e-cigarette is garbage just like everyone here stated it would be. The cartridges seem to be empty and nonfunctional even if you fill them I get zero vapor. So I moved on to dripping this thing with some Cash 36 mg marl. Loads of vap for the first 3 puffs then back down to little or nothing. The battery seems to last all of about 20 minutes of puffing!

So I need to buy a real e-cigarette. One that produces more vapor, has better carts (would like to use them when out and about), and has somewhat more decent battery life.

So is a DSE901 from Cash the answer? I saw a poll stating that is what most people here prefer, but does it fit my needs? Or does a penstyle fit my needs better? Though I think I have read the penstyle produces less vapor.

Thanks folks.

Both would work, its a matter of size.
901 is smaller. You would need to drip the cart more, and charge the batteries more.
The pen is larger, but holds more juice and battery should last a bit longer.

Its just depends your useage, time out, and style you like.

Thanks Magus. Too bad none of them don't use a simple AA or AAA battery, that would probably make life too simple. I was considering a bling but it sounds as if they don't have much vapor production, and no replacable atomizer which is a little worrisome to me after reading how frequently the atomizers go out on these things.

Then go with the Screwdriver..it uses a regular-like battery that only needs charging every 8 or so hours after smoking it..it's a battery that can only be bought online but you won't need to replace it for a long time...plus you get two.

I wish! Right now I don't have the $150 for a screwdriver as I need to buy 2 kits. One for myself and one for my wife. It's hard enough to convince her that 50 bucks a starter kit is allright LOL. For some reason she thinks it sounds expensive.
However if I can make it to the new year with whatever I buy I am getting myself one of Trogg's screwdrivers as they sound like the best thing going hands down

Hi Rattleviper,

I'm a chronic & compulsive smoker, and right now i have an NJOY penstyle (plus a DSE901b & e-juice from PureSmoker enroute).

With the penstyle, i go through at least 3 carts a day and the battery will last most of the day. I never go anywhere without my backup battery and extra carts.

Considering that everyone here says the penstyle battery and carts last longer, i assume this will probably be my primary e-ciggie and i will be using my 901 for when i wish to look a little more feminine. ;) (Not that the penstyle doesn't look feminine... it's just apparently slightly longer.)

Anyway, i get plenty of vapor from my penstyle when i choose to (it's just a matter of how heavily i drag on it), but that fluctuates sometimes for no apparent reason. But i find that if i just leave it alone for a few minutes, i can then get it vaping really nicely again. I think i've just been abusing the thing too much. LOL!

Now that i have the equipment to squeeze out remaining juice from used carts (see my post from yesterday re: my visit to doctor), i'm getting LOTS of vapor from filling/topping off used carts with the used juice. Right now i'm still vaping from the same cart i topped off last night!

However, considering how precious this e-juice is -and how dangerously low i'm getting- i try not to drag on it too heavily most of the time. Just light drags are enough to get a good nicotine hit anyway. Those big billows of vapor are fun and certainly give a bigger hit of nicotine & better sensation of really smoking, but i don't find it necessary most of the time.

I can only imagine how wonderful life will be once my order for the empty carts and e-juice arrives in the mail!

Anyway, if you're a compulsive smoker like me, i would think you'd probably want to get the penstyle from PureSmoker or NJOY. (**For better customer svc: go with PureSmoker**).

I can't comment on the 901 yet (you bet i will once i receive it!) -but going on what everyone has said regarding the difference between all the styles, i would bet you're more of a penstyle candidate. :)

Aloha!

I concur. Love the year-warranty with NJOY, but Steve's reasonable prices and priority mail shipping makes me feel more warm and fuzzy. His vanilla juice is awesome, too.

dern it. maybe i should have ordered the classic pen style instead of the mini, as compulsive as i am. i am gonna be recharging all the time. argh!

I have 2 Njoy pentstyles, because they sent me 2 atomizers when only one needed replacing. 2 bats plus 2 atomizers = 2 cigs.

The penstyle carts just don't wick the liquid to the atomizer like they should, and therefore work like crap compared to the 901 carts.

I only drip my Njoys now. 2 or 3 drops on the atomizer, and you're really smokin!! for about the equivalent of 1.5 real cigs.

Just an FYI...:D

Lucky you sixstring, to have 2 penstyles! I'm envious!

I just received my 901b today in the mail (WhoooHoooo!!!!) and i have to agree about the carts wicking the atomizer better. The very first thing i noticed when i took the 901 cart out of the box was how much "fuller" the wool stuffing appeared inside the carts --and i also much prefer the way his carts are packaged and capped nice & tight. My NJOY carts came with very loose caps and all of them had leaked out during shipping. It was messy business ...and no wonder those carts did not last very long for me.

On that note: I complained about NJOY's customer svc in a post yesterday (saying they do not respond to email inquiries), and should update that i received a response from NJOY today regarding the leaked-out carts --and they kindly offered to send me new carts. :) They weren't as quick to respond as PureSmoker, but they did respond. I now only wish i could find where i posted that complaint so that i could post this update there, as i hate to leave negative feedback lingering on the net when it's been resolved.

Anyway, the 901 took a little getting used to, but once i "broke it in": i do recognize much better vapor.

As for the taste: YUMMMMMMMMMY! I got menthol (same as with my NJOY order) and PureSmoker's carts have a much stronger & pleasant flavour than NJOY -hands down! VERRRRRRRY NICE!

Also: I like holding my e-ciggie's with my teeth (by the mouth piece). I was very happy to find that the 901's tip has a ridge sort of thing at the very tip that makes it much easier to ensure the e-ciggie wont slip out from my teeth and wind up in the toilet (as it did for one poor member of this forum. LOL!) The NJOY's penstyle mouth piece does not any ridge on the end (just smooth), so it has nothing to grip my teeth on.

Does anyone know if PureSmoker's carts for penstyle (that fit NJOY) have the same kind of mouthpiece?

I'm SO happy with both e-ciggies (esp. now that i have Steve's e-juice - yummy!!!)

If i had to choose between the 2, i am not sure i could.
I'd have to lean towards PureSmoker simply because i really appreciate excellent customer service, and also because he offers much more variety and supplies (and better value) than NJOY.

....boy, i write too much once i get going. ...sorry folks! I'm just so excited to finally have e-juice, my new 901b, enjoying this GREAT flavour, and no longer having to worry over extracting juice from used carts. :thumb:

Thanks for all the help guys! This forum is a really friendly helpful place. puresmoker.com is great, I ordered my e-juice from Cash on Friday and recieved it Monday. Can't beat that kind of service, though it helps I'm fairly close.
Is Litecig Usa a good place to order from as well? I saw the link in Steve's signature and found my way over there. My wife really likes the 401. Guess that's part of the battle, finding one your comy with ;).

It is delicious!!! sometimes I feel like mixing it with soda water, but then realize I probably would die 9 times! :)

I know! hahah. I tried the Coca Cola for the first time and the first thing that popped into my head is wow.. This juice tastes so real I want to add carbonation to it! (It is great when mixed with the rum too.)

P.S. I also like the ridge.. helps when I need to use both hands.
