Opinions of best e-cig

[womblebat]

Hi all and a happy new year to you all!

I currently own a DSE901 and a super mini (8097) and have heard a few

times that a 901 is a good starter e-cig, with this i totally agree, it is easy

to use, hasn't given me any problems yet (2 weeks fingers crossed) good

vape and throat hit, so i was wondering if the 901 is the best starter,

then which e-cig improves on it, i know this is subjective to each

individual, but any comments as to model number and the reasons for it

would be appreciated, by the way i rate my super mini as just hitting

average. thanks everyone and enjoy your day!

Currently, I just own the DSE-901 but have seen this question asked a few times. The most common answers from the more experienced users have been either a good pen style (longer battery and cart life, and better vape production at the cost of larger size) and the screwdriver. Maybe someone could post links to these (I can never find the screwdriver on Google and am not sure which penstyle in considered the "best").

It depends on what you are looking for womble. Some people ask which ecig has a longer batt life and bigger cartridges than the 901 and yes, the easy answer is the penstyle, and those are commonly found on many sites.

Some might mention the cigar or pipe but I haven't seen that people use these on a constant basis....like all day, every day.

The screwdriver is generally a powerhitter, more for heavy smokers...if that's what you are looking for.

There are manual switches sold by David Yang and Janty. They are neat little devices but a bit pricey....if you don't mind that.

Then there are 401 models but personally, I haven't seen anything about them that would make me want to change from my penstyle.

There is also the new EVO that others are raving about. I might have considered one of those but am now hoping to get away from the ecig type battery so I think I'll wait on that.

Then there is a new line coming out from Janty next month that you might want to consider waiting to check out.

So really...it depends on what you are looking for in your next model. Do you have some ideas on that?

We all are!

Too bad they don't have those in the UK yet

I have not seen the new Janty line but I heard it contains some sort of device that will work on regular batteries, and a new pipe. If you join the "other" forum, I think you can see pix. Kate had posted a link to that but I couldn't view it as I'm not a member yet...but I can't recall where that link is now...sorry.

Hmmm...after I typed this, it wouldn't post without adding something here. What the heck is that all about?

[womblebat]

Thanks Lu

Ermmm what is this mysterious "other" forum you speak of?

intrigued now,and do you need to be wearing a pair of these to view it

 

[ZambucaLu]

It was the one members here used when this site was down for a while. I'll look around for the link...or maybe someone else will come along who knows it.

Okay, here is the actual link Kate posted, which didn't work for me because I'm not a member:

Janty plans to bring out a new product in 2009. It will be a box with a switch that takes these batteries and a standard classic atomiser. You might be able to see a picture of it here - *E-Cigtest, the ultimate electronic cigarettes review site and forum*

In my personal opinion my black classic pen style from E-cigs.co.uk( RN4072B) is the absolute business. I have had many, many, many 901b's and none satisfy me like my RN4072B. I'm not keen on the hole in the 901b, it necessitates the holding of it by the battery which:
a)Isn't lady like (lol I know, but its the little things isn't it?)
b)Makes it feel less like a normal cigarette.
c)causes vapour to billow into my face which I'm not keen on.

To add to this the draw on my RN4072B atomisers is SO DAMN SMOOTH. Its a special kind of smooth compared to anything else I've tried, and very quiet. I find that too many 901b's whistle and gurgle and that bothers me. The RN4072B is also a very attractive E cigarette I think, not the smallest but very elegant and stunning in its matt black/blue led coloration. Then of course, to ice the cake, there is the joy of the looooong battery life and cartridge that just lasts and lasts. Love it, could not recommend it more!

 

[ZambucaLu]

I love my penstyle too. I started with a cheap usb pen then went to the regular battery powered one and that is all I've ever used. That is why I always wonder why the 901 is the usual model recommended to newbs. If they want something that looks more like a regular cig...okay...but otherwise, I don't see that as the best choice. Just my opinion anyway.

Best so far for me is the Janty KB Classic with manual switch and battery. Nearly as good with usb. Best vapor quantity, hit and flavor. Good length of charge. In 2 months of use one atomizer has declined, but is still usable. All batteries still OK.

Second the DSE901. More finicky, charge runs out more quickly. In 2 months of use two atomizers have declined so far as to be unusable. All batteries still OK.

Best juices: based on flavor and hit Janty and PureSmoker juices tie for first (Janty chocolate and Pure cola are favorites). Kick has lighter flavors but gives good quantity of vapor. JC flavors can be too intense and get cloying after a while.

Ok everyone firstly i would like to say a big thanks for all your views and

opinions, but i finally bit the bullet and ordered an EVOlution, the amount of

money i have spent on these things is getting obscene now, so that's me not

going out for the next month, ahh well if it keeps me away from analogs then

i think any amount of money is worth it, so how about it people, think you

can put up with this poor womble for a few weeks while i'm confined to

barracks as it were anyway a thanks go out to badseed, tribalmasters,

expipeman, suziq, igetcha and everyonelse who gave their honest opinion of

this product, if yer a lyin then i'm a comin womblin for ya!!!

 

[ZambucaLu]

That's probably a good choice womble. Let us know how it goes!

Cheers Lu, any problems with it you'll be the first to know

I appreciate the link, but it appears to be gone now. I would also be far too hesitant to buy something as finicky as an e-cig from an eBay seller. Solid customer service is everything with these things, and that is just not what you get on eBay, typically.

At one point, when I had the name of the company that made them (or at least the brand name) I was able to find them. But now I can't remember it. What is that name again? <blank> Screwdriver.

You have the wrong idea about the SD -- Trog uses ebay to sell them, but you can also order direct from him. Moreover, he even has a forum set up where you can see much discussion by SD owners, and plenty of Q & A. Far from the usual anonymous ebay sale you're thinking of!

jack,

I just clicked on that link and it is there!

And as yvilla said, they are produced by a member here (who actually invented that model)....so you would be safe with that.
