Problem with my 801

[Knives]

I just got my DSE801 penstyle in the mail, and I was looking forward to the awesomeness. Utter failure. The attys nor the batts are doa, but my vapor is little to none. I've noticed if I take the cart off and take a puff or two the vapor is much thicker, but with a cart on I get little to nothing. I thought it might have been the pre-filled carts but then I topped one off with some liquid and I get the same thing. Plus the fact that everytime I pop the cart off liquid dribbles down the side all over my hands. I'm pretty sure I'm not over filling the carts, but hey this is my first 801.
Any thoughts?/Ideas?

Atties are probably flooded. They might need to break in too.

Another thing to note, if you got the genuine DSE801 then it's probably a newer high bridge model atty. Most people have been saying that these suck (myself included). They don't wick well at all and tend to flood very easily.

Might want to speak directly to other 801 owners at the 801 Forum;

Ok well I don't know the exact difference of the attys, but I'm guessing the high bridge attys have a much higher bridge(Doh right?), and I read that they push the cart filler back quite a bit.
So that being said, I've also read the 5 pack attys from TotallyWicked for the 801 are low bridge, before I order some, They 'should' fit my batts right? Will I need to find different carts for them? I wanted to look around for different carts, I'm not to thrilled about the rubber tips.

801's are famous for being slow starters. A hard draw is another fame they have. They loosen up some. Make sure your batts are at full charge and go easy on the juice in the beginning, flooding is right around the corner.....

it takes a while for them to get going.dont overfill or it gets messy.just take long easy drags.be patient, its not a cig.once you get the hang of it,its awesome. ARE you sure the carts are pre filled? just asking.

Thanks for the tips.

I figured out fast that I can't fill or hit it like my titan.
i'm going to read up on the low bridge attys and see if that might help as well.

I'd still reccomend you read the thread I linked before. Go with the JOYE 302 or Eastmall 801s.

Runner up would be the TW 801s (they're actually 4072s) or the BE112 from Bestecig.com.

All parts are swappable between all 801 type manufacturers. No worries there. The M201 is slightly different so it might give you some troubles on 801 batts, especially mods.

Thanks for all your help Jboze. I'm reading through the thread now.

No problem!

Been scouring the forums for this info myself for the past few days! Glad I could pass it along.

Yeah before posting, I had looked around the forums and google and come up empty handed. Thanks again.
