RN4062 - E-cigar: First Impressions (OMFG)

[Walrus]

This thing is a monster. No... it's a MONSTER.

Nice packaging, yada yada.

This thing kicked my .... Literally. It's the first device to make me choke on my vapor, and it made my eyeballs want to look at each other.

Nothing special in the blend... it's the same "Boston Cream Pie" mix I've been using in my other devices. Same batch, even.

In the e-cigar, the taste is bolder and the vapor is thicker. Scratch that... the vapor is much thicker. If you've read my previous comments on the mini-pipe you know I hit it's cutoff on every drag. This beast honestly has no cutoff. I ran out of breath before I ran out of production. I took a 20 second drag before the hit got so whelming (it means the exact same thing as overwhelming, look it up) that I had to stop. And I was seeing stars. And pinwheels. And maybe pink elephants.

I'm on the first fully charged battery, so I can't comment on it's charge life yet. I will say that the battery charger went green in about an hour... but it wasn't a totally drained batt, either.

There was mention that the mini-pipe was a Screwdriver contender/killer. I have serious doubts about that. My SD hasn't arrived yet, but after puffing on this thing it sure has it's work cut out for it.

If I had recieved the RN4062 first, I probably would never have ordered the mini-pipe. Yes it's larger... if you are looking for something to carry around in that 5th (change) pocket in your jeans, this ain't it. If you are looking for monstrous throat hit and a fog that makes London jealous, this is your baby.

Your mileage may vary.

P.S. Parked... nice job here. Thanks for enclosing some business cards, they will definitely be used.

Uhmm, Excuse me...Mr. Walrus....Where did you get this e-cigar from? Some poeple would like to know...

I got mine from Parked's new store, http://www.dietsmokes.com, but I think he's already out of stock.

 

[Blue Knight Max]

Parked opened up a store? shoot, were the hell have I've been?

This should be interesting.

Thanks

He opened it late Thursday evening/night. Doing well I think... now out of stock on a lot of stuff.

Riding season is around the corner and need some cigars. Just ordered the disposable Ruyan Vegas Cigar. I heard it got alot of good reviews.

But I'm willing to try out others.

Thanks for the info

Riding season? What's that? I ride on days that end in 'y'. It's just a matter of what I'm wearing when I ride. Of course, you live in New York, and I'm in Louisiana...

You bringing it with you Friday, right? I want to see your table so shrouded in fog that we can't see you in the audience...

 

[Walrus]

Here's the one suggestion I'd make to improve the design:

I like to see a more 'cigar-like' mouthpeice. These come with the typical 'pen-style' shape and feel. I want one that feels like a stogie... larger, rounder... and maybe with a rubberized material instead of hard plastic, so you could hold it in your teeth.

I'd have it hanging from my mouth all the time (well I do now, but it's not that comfortable). If I could get a mouthpiece like described, I'd chomp down on that sonofa..... and ride like the wind.

Hell yeah. Maybe I'll look for a flashlight with colored gels so that I can add some 'ambiance' to the bar.

Oooh...you could use it as a cloaking device the next time you have to throw someone out!! LMAO..can you imagine THAT conversation?

"Hey, where'd Cletus go?? He was right here just a second ago!"

"I don't know man, all I saw was fog, felt a whoosh, and he was gone...maybe the devil done got him!"

A quick-fix I've found for this is the little brown caps in the package. Just cut a hole in the end of one and slip it over the mouthpiece and it gives a softer/larger mouthpiece. It definately makes it easier to hold in your teeth.

I would suggest a dab of glue or something though. Don't want that badboy slipping out of the mouthpiece and falling.8-o

LMAO Spoken like a True Biker!!

Yeah, New York, have to deal with real cold weather and snow BUT Spring is here!!

I agree with you about that pen style tip. I hate them. I'm getting ready to sell my Janty Kissbox becasue of that and other reasons.

That's why I ordered the Vegas. Round mouth piece, disposable BUT refillable.

Walrus...I am wondering about something. How hard is the drag on your lady pipe? The newer pipes have a different thread on the battery and it seem they fit the atomizer way too tight....making the drag very very hard. I noticed this immediately when my first pipe died and I had to go to the second pipe. What I had to do was make a couple of small notches on the atomizer band. Then it was vaping like crazy. The only reason I am thinking that you might have the same problem is that...I vape very very heavily. I go through 6 batteries a day. There is no way I could take 7 second drags on the my pipe every single time without passing out....or coughing up a lung....the vapor production is just way too much for that

It's comparable to my penstyle. Pretty easy. The only problem I have is battery life. I can't take a 7-second drag either, because it cuts off at 6

 

[radiokaos]

ok, I think I'm in the right section.

First review and will do a video review this week.

I'm using a scale of 1-5 (1 being lowest and 5 it should be gold plated)

1. Quality Built Scale= 3.5
The 4062 Cigar is well made and threads easy for carts, and battery cap. The package itself was a little cheap (sides of glue coming undone). Also the led is barely visible. The instruction manual needs help and is lacking in the translation dept.

2. Ease of use= 4
Drags are not that bad, charging battery was simple and filling a cart could be done blindfolded. I used a syringe to get into the cart and fill from the bottom up until saturated.

3. Production of Vapor and Throat hit = 3
I was disappointed on this factor. Maybe I have a dud but I expected clouds of smoke and hacking. The carts are super big, but I did not get the cloud of smoke or major throat hit. In fact I get a better vapor and throat hit with the cheapo 4081 mini.

Oh...ok...your unit is a good one. Maybe the reason I can't get to vape longer that six seconds is the juice I use. I use shag cigar...but I add a couple of drops of jalapeno oil for every 10ml. The throat hit and chest punch is just immense...eventhough I use low nicotine level.

So the cigar produces a lot more vapor?...that is amazing. Let us know how long it lasts. I was thinking about getting one but so many people complained about them dying after a few weeks...that I bought the lady pipe instead. I killed the switch of the lady pipe and two atomizer.... in less than a month. So I didn't fare much better with the lady pipe.

Wally,

Did you find that the atomizer that came with it has an odd taste? Also, does the top of the e-cigar box say Revelle? I just wanted to see if these are the same as the ones I got. I found a temporary hookup on RN4062's and can get them while supplies last for $27... I actually wasn't a big fan of the one I got, but at that price I was thinking of ordering some more...

 

[EDO]

Radio...How come the low score on the the hit/vapor?

No odd taste here. Only device I've had that problem with is the 901.

The top of the box just says "Electronic Cigar" in the center, and in the bottom right corner says "Health - Security - No pollution - Vogue"
