save your money and buy a screwdriver

[GrimmGreen]

Don't tell Trog this , but i might be getting rid of my SD

don't get me wrong , it's a fantastic device with a great battery life , that is both dependable and produces good vapor.

it's just kind of not for me , i have only had mine 1 week so far , so i guess I'll keep using it for the time being.

maybe i just need to spend some more time with it , getting used to using it

I disagree with the people saying the 901 is the best atomizer and submit instead that the pen-style is the best atomizer and i wish that screwdrivers took them instead of 901 atomizers. I also wish the screwdriver had a sidemount switch. If it had these two features i'd buy one, for now i am using a usb passthrough.

I agree. I recently purchased the SD and I'm completely loving it. I've spent a nice hunk of change on various models (Npro and Kissbox) and battery options, however, I was never satisfied. There have been times when I reverted back to an analog now and then. Now, with the SD, I feel that I've found device that will work for me. I think my search is over . . . until the Janty Stick hits the market!

Does anyone have experience with taking a SD through airport security? I'm about to leave on my honeymoon through SE Asia and really want to take my SD. I'm a little apprehensive, however, about how airport security is going to react to the looks of the SD and whether I can sufficiently explain to them that it's not a detonator but a e-cig.

I know you! Have fun on your honeymoon, bring back something nice for me and Kev.

Ok...I read the review about the Big Four...now I want to know where I can purchase a USB pack & passthrough at a reasonable price in the USA. I am waiting on my 901 model to arrive, however, I think having these two items will increase my enjoyment!

When using the SD one must remember that the battery it uses (cr123) is not just a larger mah just for length of smoking. Although this is true, the Mah aslo is able to produce a more constant power when under load. The standard battery I assume drops off in voltage fast when under load while the cr123 can keep up the voltage thus creating a hotter and faster heating of the atomizer, this of course comes at a cost of maybe atomizers burning out faster, but I dont know for sure.
Think of it like this.
If you have an electric motor running on 12v with 1000mah with no load it will preform about the same as suppling 12v to the same motor with 5000mah, but put some load on the motor and the 1000mah power source will struggle and voltage will drop. The 5000mah will have enough mah and out put to keep the motor even under load spinning the same.

Trog does/will offer a penstyle atomizer adapter. As far as the switch being on the bottom , i thought the same thing , but now i could not imagine having a side mounted switch. There are more ways to comfortably hold it with a bottom switch

i love my screwdriver i own 2 for myself. yes i'm selfish lol. got a black one and steel one and i'm loving it. i hate going to 4 901 batteries a day but with screwdriver 1 battery lasts more than a day for me.

 

[Zaxx]

I've been considering a SD for a couple of weeks. I'll be ordering next month. I need something consistent for when I'm away from home.

agreed. get the adapter cuz some people like the penstyle atmoizer and I dont find the bottom switch to be annoying at all, i got used to it and it works fine

I have a 401 that I use all day, everyday. I have 12 atomizers and 16 batteries for it... I am a hoarder for sure.

But the SD is my real "Doomsday" device. Awesome vapor, and when/if they finally block the sale of the last 901 atomizer, you can turn out the lights... Vaping is over...

I never regret the money I spent on the SD. Quality product and bulletproof performance.

 

[bribri]

your're absolutely right the 901 with the pass through is the same thing, but with the sd you can vape all day and not be tethered to a cord. The 901 is the best atomizer out there, with the sd attachment it gives more freedom in portability and battery life. I must admit though I just got it today and only used it for one day my opinion may change over time.

Try smoking with the passthru and then smoke the Screw Driver. It is not the same. Different wattage outputs I think. It doesnt hit the same for me. Couldn't say which is better.

When a pen-style atomizer/adapter is available, I'll be sold. I don't like the 901 mouthpiece or that I constantly have to top it off. Pen-style for me... Now if I could find a minipipe with a manual switch, I'd be in heaven.

You and me both!

Someday, I'm sure!

Me too. I don't like the dse901 style either. Penstyle for me too.

I'm pretty sure Trogg has an adapter available. Email him and find out. There is a thread on the SD forum on how to make one too. I think I'm gonna go that route. It looks pretty easy.

 

[TheEmperorOfIceCream]

I'm making the adapter right now. As stated the hard bit is getting the atomiser end out of the donor piece. About to find out if golf-ball sized blobs of solder impede performance...

Within this thread, I hear people saying they are using 'cr123' batteries?

what is the difference between the 'spiderfire LC-16340' and 'cr123' batteries?

are they one in the same?

I bought a grip of the 'spiderfire LC-16340' batteries as I am waiting on the arrival of my SD... I hope i did not impulsively purchase the wrong batteries....

Your Ok, as long as there 3.6/3.7 volts. The size is identical.

If he has one, it's not listed on the sales site. That said, I haven't emailed him yet.

Walrus,

I just bought the adapter from him today. It is $33 with shipping included. Just email him and he will send you a PayPal invoice for it.
