Need help picking 2nd Ecig

[Joe498]

I am looking to buy a 2nd Ecig I currently love my m402 but I need something for around the house that's a little bigger. I have narrowed it down to 2 options on what the next ecig I want to buy is.

The Vx2 : The m201

I want an Ecig that can do what I need it to do.
1. Throat hit, I need something with a big throat hit. Something I can feel when vaping
2. Cartridge Life/ Ease of refilling
3. Long lasting Atty/Battery
4. Dripping

The long part
I like the idea of the VX2 because I can get it will a PCC, but it isn't a selling point because I hear Shawn will be getting one in for the m40 series and I mainly am just going to use it around the house. I also like the manual battery which will allow me to drip, but again since around the house I won't have any trouble with wind or vibration and with my 402 I don't get to the cut off point to often. I also hear the cartridges are a pain to refill and hard to cap.

The only thing I know about the m201 is the vapor is amazing and throat hit seems great. I don't know how the dripping is. Battery is sensitive. I would like a manual battery for this someday. I don't mind they our juice suckers.

If I can get any help picking out my second E-Cig it would be greatly appreciated. Any input would be great. Right now after watching all of Figurehead's reviews I am leaning towards the m201, but wanted to know what my other options were first.

Thank you

One last Question is the 50ml of Camel the same as Camel Turkish?

50ml is the same yes. and i dont suggest dripping on any unit with a auto battery as if the liquid gets in the battery it will fry it.

Is the USB Passthrough sealed off like the manual batteries are?

I'd go with the 510 or M201. Even with the manual on the VX2, both of the others provide better throat hit with same liquid. Shawn sells both. (AFAIK, is the only seller of the M201 in the US)

The 510 has a PCC as well, while the M201 is identical size-wise to a regular DSE801 penstyle - no PCC, but double the cartridge capacity in fluid (1ml vs .5ml 510 or .55ml for the VX2). The VX2/J118 draw is very light compared to either the 510 or the M201 (or the M4* series, as well).

The M4* or EVOs are great for 'convenience sized,' as well as dipping. They can produce decent vapor, but have tiny carts, which overall leaves it out.

The 510 has lousy battery life.

The J118 has slightly better battery life, but I'd go with the M201 out of your choices from above, with your 'I want the perfect e-cig that doesn't exist criteria'

PS - just an observation - if you want actual help with perhaps different responses, you might look at more than one person's reviews, and post in a non vendor specific forum. Doesn't matter to me ether way - the M201 is great, and I just ordered more parts/kits from Shawn for it, but if you go to a Dodge dealer, and ask them about Chevy... ?

I have the VX2, M401 and M201. I highly recommend the M201 for big throat hit, sturdy parts, long battery life, and big easy to fill cartridges. With these carts, you won't need to drip. A couple of fresh charged batteries will last you all day so you don't really need a PCC with it. Just get one of Shawn's nice carrying cases for it & you're set for a day of vaping. I think the carrying cases are much less bulky to carry than the PCC's are anyway. Also, the M201 batteries aren't nearly as sensitive as the VX2's (everything sets off my VX2). I think that the battery connections and the chargers for the VX2 seem to be a little fussy... it seems very easy for the connection to get pushed in too far and out of place and it's very easy to screw them into the charger too far. While the VX2 has an easy draw, good vapor production and flavor, I think the battery design needs some improvement. My M201 batts are not easily set off by knocking, jarring, noise or wind. I successfully use it while driving my convertible with the top down! Although, I cannot speak about the battery life of the new manual (VX2m) batts; I haven't tried them yet but I plan on getting one to try soon.
