Im very happy with PS.
Casey responded to my email request for two long batteries within a day, and was very nice about my special order.
I requested two long batteries with 33% more battery life than the shorter ones.
Im looking forward to my new Pilot and will be a long time customer from now on.

Thank you Casey, and PS staff.

I think you will like your purchase. When I bought 2 sets wished I had done that too but my shorts work just fine for home use. They charge quicker than I vape. But for a single set 2 longs is the way to go.

I didnt even think about it I got 1 long 1 short they both work great.

FYI one thing I ordered the case for them and its designed for small batts only.

A simple tip just take an exact o knife and slightly cut the trench end a little longer and the longer ones fit just fine :D

I'm not impressed with mine, unfortunately - The vapor production isn't impressive at all. I don't remember if my whateveritis (the first overpriced one I got from those other guys) took a while to get as good as it is now.
Not a reflection on Puresmoker at all, you understand.

Well Im still new to vaping but before I pop on a cart new or used I drip juice generously into my carts no matter which product I am using and I find that makes a big difference.

I even juice my disposable cart systems new/used with syringe and needle before I vape em. If Im going out I juice them up before I go and they taste great.

When I first started vaping I was only interested in the newer disposable products I didnt want to mess with juicing but since that I have learned juicing no matter what product is the only way for me to get a satisfying BuZZ LOL.

If you can do that, it will fix you right up.

I'm not happy paying $11 shipping and waiting 7 days like I did, but live and learn.

One thing I really like about the Pilot is that it seems very frugal with the liquid compared to my Dura. That small cart lasts about twice as long as the big Dura cart, and although it doesn't produce as much vapour it's perfectly adequate when you don't want a huge hit.

Hey strayling I took my Wife to Seattle last September and to the Butchart Gardens on Victoria Island BC. That week in Sept. the weather was beautiful!!!

Anyways we had so much fun and some friends that live there. So many more things to do in Seattle compared to Dallas minus the rain. Also so many areas of the city being revitalized there are some great housing opportunites in Seattle right now both of us want move there really bad :rolleyes:

It's a great place to live and they're very welcoming to out of towners, so I'm sure you'd love it.

I came here for a 6 month work assignment about 12 years ago ...

Good point.
I like both of these and for exactly those reasons - the Dura for the mass vapor and the Pilot for for being frugal on the juice and on the power - both the little cart and the battery last a long time on a refill.

You are running a big risk draining your batteries. I had mine drain in less than 2 hours without use by carrying this way. Made me realize why those cheesy cases are designed to store with atomizers removed.


I agree Im afraid to leave my atomizers connected while un-attended. I also removed the magnetic tabs on my Pilot stash box just incase. I put a strip of velcro on it :D

I was kind of chuckling at you people with all your little parts and bottles and etc. Then I got everything together in one place and realized I'm well on the way. A K808, M401/2, chargers and batteries for those,14 bottles of juice, eyedroppers, random assorted little plastic bottles (I blame Johnson Creek, they always send all sorts of cool extras with each order), carrying cases, paper clips, tea bags, polyfill, and only 15 cartridges... I need more! I've been doing this for almost a month and that's all I have.
When/if the 801 arrives from China, that'll help... and I still need a 901. And maybe a pipe to go with my Harris tweed Inverness (and deerstalker cap, of course)


ETA - crap, this is in the Puresmoker supplier forum thing and not general discussion... Ah well, I got the 401 from them and I plan to buy plenty more from them. They put up with my rambling emails so I guess they have to put up with my rambling posts in their forum too.

On topic, Puresmoker folks have been very helpful and quick to reply to my questions as I'm trying to get a couple of guys at work hooked ... er "hooked up"

I got my Pilot today, but I think the atomizer is bad, im not getting a good hit or any vapor, also the led only lights up for one second then quits and i dont get a drag afterwards.

When will you be getting more stock?

The spare battery that I ordered does this. Can't get it to light up when I'm puffing and then as soon as I stop it lights up for a second. If I immediately try again I can tell it worked when it lit up because I get a small drag.

Found this out after the return period as this was an extra battery I ordered alongside the starter kit. :( If anyone knows a quick fix I'd be glad to hear it, otherwise it'll go into the mod pile.
