PureSmoker Ace (kr808d-1) review

[macscac]

I just wanted to toss a positive out there for the folks at PureSmoker!
I received my Ace about 2 weeks ago.
I ordered the 29.99 kit. Which came with 2 manual batteries, a wall charger and a usb charger.
At the same time i ordered a PCC kit from vapor4life. (this came with the PCC unit, 1 battery and a pack of cartomizers for 39.95)
I really wanted the portability of being able to charge on the fly and PureSmoker does not offer a PCC

My Ace kit came a couple days before the v4L kit...
It came with a pack of cappuccino carts which were either underfilled or dry or just not to my tastebuds at all.
With those carts tasting so badly, i was rather disapointed!
Steve was quick to offer positive help.. He told me he would get me a small bottle of capp juice to try and refill the bad carts
nice!

my v4L came in the meanwhile...
got some apple and some redcow (redbull) with that order.
wow!! i really enjoy the flavors.
and while i like the v4L auto battery that came with the PCC kit, i really enjoy using the manuals that i got from PureSmoker.
They seem to produce a bit more vapor and are more consistent through the 'puffing' process

i LOVE the kr808d-1!!

so easy to use! seriously.. screw in a cart, puff away...
changing flavors is so easy.. refilling is so easy...
i am very happy!

today my bottle of capp juice came from Steve.
along with a sample cart of Apple and Peach.
holy cow the Peach is good.
I will definately be ordering some Peach from Steve as soon as he gets it up on his site!
very flavorful and the vapor is very full.

all in all i just wanted to say that Steve and PureSmoker have been great!
the parts are 100% interchangeable with the v4L stuff and I am very happy that i purchased from both companies!
tbh, for 29.99, the puresmoker Ace is a great deal

thanks guys!!

I also ordered an ace about 2 weeks ago, great kit for the price. I also ordered a pack of the Cartomizers Cash's Blend (his Marlboro), very weak flavor and vapor production. Grabbed a bottle Marlboro juice, 12 drops later it worked like a champ. Think he may have gotten a dry batch. I've had the same thing happen from other vendors, nothing unusual. With some of the new flavors he's added I'll be ordering a few this payday. I primarily order carts from V4L but have to try his new menthol, and Pumpkin Pie.

well im not sure if the peach that puresmoker sells is the same as v4L's peach but I am very smitten by it.
I only take a couple puffs on it, then I have to unscrew it, and go to another flavor
I do not want this flavor to run out before i can get some more!

How is the draw on the puresmoker batteries compared to the V4L batts?

I'm just wondering if maybe the airflow is better on some than others. I have some batteries from ivapour-elixer, healthcabin, and mist-stix.. they all have a pretty hard draw.

I'm guessing all KR batteries are the same, but has anyone successfuly added an extra hole, or anything to make the draw easier?

 

[Katmar]

I think the draw on the long and xlong V4L batteries ROCKS! Perfect draw. Not to hard and not like sucking air.

 

[macscac]

the draw is slightly different. just slightly.
im not saying that the ace is a harder or softer draw.. its just slightly different.
but im also comparing a manual to an auto. my v4L is an auto battery.

I think I'm gonna get some Ace parts when he gets the longer batteries and blank carts. The KR808 is the ONLY standard issue chinese e-cig that satisfies me. I typically only use my 5 volt mods.

 

[ThaLadyD]

The only one I don't have is an extra long, I'll have to try that...

The adapter to use cartomizers on 510 batteries add better airflow, but I have all these KR batteries now!

Maybe an adapter to use 901 batteries with cartomizers will fit the KR batteries and just add airflow? They are the same size and same threads, and 901 batts have no airflow on the cartomizers, so it should add some.

Liked the way the Ace looks but thought the batteries were weak. Did charge overnight...Better hit form KR's purchased from Nhaler Vapor Kings and V4L. I know they are all supposed to be the same but my observations fwiw.

 

[kcjones]

Just ordered my Ace (KR808D-1) and i'm brand new to this ive seen 510 910 vl4 vapor king so which ones are part interchangable/// and is the 510 type the same as Ace (KR808D-1) and they just put there names on it i'm gonna be orderin from vapor 4 L and pure smoke so if i wanna try another battery or something whats gonna be compatible w what, charger wise, new refill wise thanks , KURT East TN I guess all i'm askin is all this kinda standardized but for diffrent battery and cartridge manufacturers?

Thats the same way I am with the Kamel atomz. I have an Ace just to savor those, but I do love them at 5v. Problem is I burn through them like [insert something clever here].

I need to find a comparable juice to refill with.

Do you clean your batteries that can make a big difference to me

Does the manual battery still have a cutoff?

Got my ace in today and I have to say I am really enjoying it. My first e-cig.

Easy to use, menthol ice tastes excellent. Didn't like the pumpkin pie, but doesn't mean it was bad or anything.

Really sleek and slick looking. The little black carry case I bought with it is very well constructed for the price, and has good weight.

Cant wait to continue purchasing from Pure Smoker. Shipping was excellently fast, very very satisfied with this product.

hey guys I just got mine today, but I'm confused, shouldn't this thing produce a fair amount of vapor? and is the juice/vapor spose to be so warm? I can't find any video reviews. this is my first experience with cartomizers and was expecting to be impressed. it looks cool tho

 

[syndicate2083]

I think with the un vg mixed juice, compared to what an analog would produce, or say a 501 not quite no. That said, it took me a bit to get used to inhaling with these things right, which totally made a vapor difference.

Might want to look into juices with vg mixed in which should give you more vapeness.

Though I could be far off, I am sure someone with more experience can answer more fully

 

[skydawgg]

yes, learning how to inhale on your device properly is key to good vapor! i get huge massively insane clouds of vapor with my kr808d-1 AND pure PG....now in the beginning this was not the case...i had horrible vapor, TH and flavor....NOW I GET AMAZING VAPOR FLAVOR AND TH...not because of new liquid or anything, simply because i have learned how to inhale properly(for the kr808d-1).... which is why i have come to find that when people try a new device after say vaping a 901 for 6 months it wont hit nicely at first for them...because they have programmed their subconscious mind to inhale on an e-cig in a certain way for the 901 (gives brain most satisfaction) ...so when they hit say a kr808d-1 after vaping that 901 for 6 months, they will get reduced vapor, because their subconscious will automatically hit the kr808d-1 as if it was a 901...because the brain thinks that is how it will get the most satisfaction.... meanwhile they are not hitting the kr808d-1 properly therefore not getting optimal vapor results...which is why i also believe most e-cigs have the ability to be "great vapor producers"...it is just a matter of taking the time to learn how to inhale on them properly....my $.02

 

[Korr]

Would you guys recommend this for first timers? My cousin would like to get the 901 mini, but he is also still looking around. He won't be making his first purchase till next month.
