My only complaint with the soft ones are that they don't last as long. They break down and get limp after a while and if you hold them in your teeth(...I know they weren't designed for it but that's what I do...)they develop small holes in them.

Other than that. I love them. :D
I am so bad. You know where my mind went! LOL
 
I didn't know there was such a thing as a soft tip till I got my 801 kit from MyVaporStore. There were some soft tips with it. This is my 3rd 801 kit. Prev were from PS, well actually that was a 4072, and my kit from Smilin. I love the soft tips. Much more comfortable in the mouth.

:shock: I can't believe I didn't catch that!!!! Guess it's just too late to be posting. :oops:

I definitely have a preference to the hard plastic on my penstyle. The soft task funky and kind of pinch closed if I try to hold it with my teeth anyway. Also I've found that the soft tips don't stay in the atomizer tube as well. I tend to carry my smoke in my pocket and the rubber one will come off sometimes leaving the cartridge itself in the tube so which I then have to extract and hope I can find the tip and it's not laying on the ground at some random place I walked by.

Hmm, part of that whole analog ciggy thing to me was chomping down on the filter or the bare end to get a little more flavor at the end of the burn.

What would be cool is a malleable cart exterior that has some nic juice impregnated in it.

Would go great in a cigar type also.

If this reply bothers anyone, delete it, but I'm not really a supplier yet. I am working on bringing to market the exact cigarette you have described - I haven't found such a thing in an e-gar yet, but the cigarette has an internal cartridge inside a "malleable cart exterior." I had been deciding on the exact model and this poll is what pushed me over the edge to it.

I've only been vaping (constantly...worse than a chain smoker...I LOVE it) for about 3 weeks now and have placed 5 orders through different companies. One of the companies I ordered juice through had really cheap empty carts so I ordered a pack of 5 just to see if they'd fit in my pen-style (the guy I work with had problems with pen-style carts not fitting well and he lost a lot of vape). Anyway, it turned out they are the soft plastic and I love absolutely them. It may just be that I'm so used to the hard plastic and the soft ones are a little different but I, too, like to bite down and all of my hard plastic ones are covered in teeth marks.

I keep 2 atomizers ready at work; one with nicotine and one with nic-free juice. Now, before tasting the juice, I can tell which is which just by which cartridge is on the atomizer. I don't mind the hard plastic, just prefer the rubbery ones.

LOL...sometimes when I bite down, it feels like my cig is going to fall down but I let up on my bite and it's fine. I think my carts may not be as soft or my cig may not be as heavy, though, because even when I bite completely down and try to make my cig fall, it doesn't (it just feels like it's going to). (LOL - after sitting here and biting down over and over, I'm afraid the hole is closing up (whoopsie)).

i voted hard tips
i've only seen soft on the 801 carts i got from eastmall and while i liked the feel in my lips and teeth, i hated the rubber taste in a big way
too bad i bought 3 5-packs

much prefer the hard tips that came with my bestecig be112 because they are tasteless
same for my evo/m401 and 510 carts, no rubber taste
