Damn you Turbo, I just whipped the iPhone out, took a really bad shot (that kinda shows the above) and was just about to upload.
Problem with new Dragon M401 atty.

Great, I have the opposite brands of what I need. My batts fire off for almost nothing and my atties just flat out suck.
This picture is from a thread in the 401 subforums. The atty on the right is pointy (non Smoore) and the atty on the right is a Smoore atty. Hope this helps.
Oh dear, I do believe that I have a Smoore then. I thought the bridge on mine was pointy.... but that thing.... Does Smoore hate me then?
Thats a smoore, big boy, you can see the white inner bridge, well, I can. Unable to determin the width of the bridge from the image but I'll jump to a conculsion as I excel at that.

Smoore - batteries fire if you sing to them, atties are suppose to be the best
SLB - batteries are ok, atties look like you could take someones eye out with them.
Turbos picture could do with being a bit closer up, it looks ok to me but I know what I am looking for and the two atties could be confusing.

Lol...we're in a post race...I just corrected my verbiage (used the word 'right' both times) but the point is still the same, atty on the left non Smoore and atty on the right Smoore. Yes, looks like yours is too Joker.
Yeah, stop replying as I might stop posting myself then and thus not get hit with the naughty stick 
Smoore atties are known for needing breaking in, like a pair of shoes or something. Batteries should be ok though, maybe you have a bad charger?

JD told me that the charger from my last kit might be faulty, so I hope this isn't the same kit that I received. The atty that burnt out was astounding and produced 510-like vapor from the get-go, but lasted only a week. This atty has gotten 2-3 days of use, but is producing mediocre vapor and it's like sucking on a pipe stuffed with cement.
Lol Liberty...Yes, breaking in is def a must. I also let mine drain over night and prime them good in the morning. Seems to help clogging issues. Some may not agree w/ this approach. You def don't want to draw on a dry atty, this WILL kill it.
Low battery charge leads to underperforming atties = bad charger? heh, I'll throw this one out there as well but SLB40x atties have a much tougher draw Do you have a multi-meter? Great way of determining if the atties are dead and if the battery have charge.
P.S. does the skype icon evey show the correct status?

But I drained and primed as well. I NEVER draw on a dry atty. Everything that I own is in prestine condition.... besides my M401. *Cries*

SLB? But I have a Smoore atty... why does it have a hard draw then? I looked for a cheap multi-meter, but am low on funds at the moment and couldn't find one under $20(Sorry, bad with currency conversion). I'm going to invest in one, when possible.
Hmm...I think Liberty has brought up good points; if the batts or charger are faulty then it could cause substandard performance.
I'm totally flustered right now, and I need to get into my happy place.... too bad I can only find a cold, dark corner.
awww. The multi-meter does help for testing resistance in an atty, I've had my hands on a few that simply needed a good clean/drain to be brought back to life. Similar with a battery charge, a good test to see if the charger is messed up. Hope your corner isn't too bad.
Yeah, it must be frustrating but try to hang in there. I've had great luck w/ Smoore products but all models can be a pain sometimes. Hope this works out for you soon!
The corner is doing me quite well, actually. I'll pick up a multi-meter ASAP, but I tried to get the atty to come back, but with no success. Well, I'm off to go to my internet-less home and I'm off for 3 days; so I'll be back afterwards. Thank you all so much in helping me out.

Sorry about your luck. That would get annoying. I would definitely give JD the chance to see what he can do for you though.
The only 40x I've tried is the Intellicig EVOs and have had no problems with them luckily.
