Super Cigarette (update on pg 6)

[jarvis]

First time poster and new e-cig user. I've been reading and re-reading this forum for the past week, and all the knowledge you people have shared here is great. I bought the newest model "Super Cigarette" from ebay and just got it in the mail. It was my first e-cig, so I didn't want to spend too much money initially, and was having trouble with e-cig.com's payment page. Got this one for 66 dollars and it came with 56 refill cartridges. It's very small and light weight, just like a real cig. I opened it up, screwed a battery in and popped in one of the Marlboro cartridges. There was a lot of smoke. The taste was not so great though, kinda like what I would imagine a cigarette scratch and sniff sticker would smell like. Perhaps I should order some e-liquid to get some better flavors. But I am so far very impressed with the quantity and density of the vapor. I will update my post again in a week or two to tell you how this thing is continuing to perform.

*Post Edit* see pg 6 for pics. NEVER smoke with a low cartridge or get this model too hot. There is a fiber in the coil of the atomizer that will burn. Once this happens, your atomizer is basically burnt out. It will continue to smoke like normal, but the fiber, which must be some synthetic fiber, will have melted into a solid chunk and continue to emit disgusting fumes as you smoke the rn4081, which I think is a serious design flaw in this model (only model I have, so I can't speak in reference to other e-cigs)

Welcome jarvis:

You will learn a great deal of information on this board. Everyone here is very helpful, so if you have any questions, just ask.

How is your super cigarette holding up?

Perhaps I should order some e-liquid to get some better flavors.

I would, I like to try different flavors and see which ones I like the most. Then I try mixing to see what I get.

Thanks for the welcome. So far the Super Cigarette is still performing. One thing I've noticed is these cartridges are tiny. A little bigger than a pencil eraser. They seem to only last about 30 puffs before the smoke diminishes, so I guess about 2 cigarettes. Other than that, still impressed with the density and quantity of vapor after going through about 3 cartridges in a day.

I would definately suggest e-liquid from e-cig.com. It is working well with my Njoy and the variety of flavors is very appealing. Make a big order though. Shipping is not cheap.

Thought I'd show a pic of the Super Cigarette, and also a pic of it working. My gf volunteered, and used a non-nicotine cartridge, as she is a non smoker.Did some searching online and it seems that this Rn4081 is the latest model. Apparently they were having some trouble with liquid leakage that is fixed in this one. Over all, sturdy metal construction. Now to order some E-liquid.

She was a non-smoker!

Very nice photos, Jarvis. Great quantity of smoke, too. Now everyone will know what you mean when you say, "My girlfriend's not just hot, she's smokin'."

LOL nice one TB

Hey Jarvis, How much was shipping for this product? Is the cartridge and mouthpiece as one part.. or is the mouthpiece and liquid cartridge seprate? I have 2 models of mini cigs that look just like this. Trying to determine which one I have that matches yours. Thanks

 

[jarvis]

Hehe TropicalBob
Meltrex, the shipping was only 7 dollars because I bought it from an ebayer here in the states, got it in just two days too! The mouthpiece and the cartridge are separate, and these cartridges are tiny, about the length and width of a standard pencil eraser.

 

[Fumador]

This one looks the same as the minicigarette that I have. Its a good product , but I agree the taste is very bad.I'm now refilling with e liquid and from njoy menthol cartridges.

Well after a little more than a week, this super cigarette is still performing. At one point the smoke diminished substantially and I got a bit worried, so i took out the atomizer and blew through the battery end. A drop or two of e-liquid was apparently pushed out and back into the steel wool part of the e-cig, because when I put it back together it started puffing like a steam locomotive. Perhaps it was overloaded. The cartridges are definitely not equivalent to one pack of cigarettes, more like about 4 cigarettes, making one box of five cartridges about a pack of normal cigarettes. It looks like I'll have to wait till the summer Olympics are over to order some e-liquid through e-cig.com, and I'm tempted to buy an e-pak from e-cig.com as well to have a backup cig.

 

[leaford]

I'd hold off on the E-Pack. I've heard bad reviews of their model of mini-cig. Although I really do like the E-Pack concept.

As for e-liquid, http://www.e-cig-sales.com has a LIMITED amount of 30ml bottles left, and they ship from here in the US. But she's affected same as the rest of us, so it'll run out fast. So hurry!

Ok, so another week has gone by so here's another review update. The Super cigarette is performing even better, if that's possible. It's very consistent in it's smoke production, and it seems like the cartridge life has improved from about 45 puffs to around 80. Don't know why this is, maybe there's a break-in period? I like this little e-cig so much that I ordered a new atomizer and a spare battery from china, in case these go out. The atomizer was 10$ and the battery was 14$, where as buying a new e-cig would be 45! Albeit you'd get another charger and a few sample cartridges. Can't wait for the e-liquid to get here. happy vaporizing.

Hello everyone, I've been reading this forum for the past few days and I finally decided to make my first post. I am a (not so proud) owner of a super cigarette. I ordered mine from e-bay and I'm not very satisfied with it. First of all the catridges do not last long and the same goes for the battery as well. I wouldn't mind that if the vapor and taste was good, but unfortunately they're not. One of the most annoying things though is the liquid getting in your mouth, leaving a very unpleasant taste. I guess I could use e-liquid for better flavour and more vapor but I prefer an e-cigarette that just works out of the box with it's own cartridges.

I am now thinking of buying either an Njoy or a Gamucci. I would definetely go for the Njoy without second thoughts if it's cartridges weren't that expensive, they are almost double the price of other brand cartridges.

I also found earlier today about an other brand called Smuke. I checked their site and it looks quite good, the cigarette is quite pricey but they have cheap cartridges and they come in four different flavours. After finding out about them I immediately searched this forum for a review but I couldn't find any, not even one post about this Smuke! Anyway if anyone has ever tried or even heard of this brand please let me know. Here's the site btw if anyone want's to check it out http://www.smuke.eu

Sorry for the first long post guys, this forum has been really helpful and I only wish I found out about it before I bought the super cigarette. I will continue e-smoking and I will share my experiences with you guys.

Thanks for your time,
Michael C.

Hi Michael, have you thought about freesmoke.eu? Their liquid probably works out cheaper in the long run if you are ordering within the EU.

Hello Joe, yes I found out about this site from one of your posts. A friend of mine tried my super cigarette and liked it a lot so I will propably sell to him, so my first concern now is finding a cigarette that works well with it's cartridges and maybe after that I will give e-liquid a go. But right now I have e-liquid in mind as "plan B" if I'm not satisfied with the original cartridges.

Thanks,
Michael C.

Hello mixalisc, thanks for giving another opinion on the super cig. I definitely don't want people to buy one just based on my review. What was the model number on your super cig? I was doing some research online, and indeed alot of people had problems with liquid getting into their mouths. The newest model had some redesigns to the atomizer that now are supposed to prevent this, and it's never happened to me. I was worried about my battery as well, but I guess I lucked up and got 2 good ones. The ebay seller I bought from claimed to test all of them before shipping, I hope I have the same luck with the one that is shipping from china.

I checked out that link, and I gotta say, that's one damn pretty e-cig! I love the marbled look. And three batteries and 25 free cartridges is a great package. They're obviously not just resellers, so I'd expect them to be better than E-Cig.com, or other generic chinese models, and maybe on a par with Njoy, and the beautiful looks might be worth the premium price.

But, the model looks like E-cig or Myecig's minis. So, it's not any new model, or new technology, and for the same price you could get one of Janty's new Kissboxes, which are suppsed to have a few real advances in technology. So, if you're OK with the price, I'd go for the Kissbox. http://www.ruyanxpress.com

Me, OTOH, I just might get one for the looks alone. In a week or two, maybe.

Hello Jarvis, the model number on my super cig is RN4081. I don't know if it's the newest model, maybe you can shed some light into this. To be honest though, even if it isn't the latest model and they have fixed all its faults on the new model, I don't think I will be buying a chinese model again. That's my opinion though, I don't want to discourage people from buying the e-cig, it's just a matter of taste. Like I said on my first post, a friend of mine tried my super cig and really liked it ! I'm just a bit picky with this kind of stuff

Hehe yeah it looks pretty sleek! Hmm, the Janty looks pretty good too and I read some good reviews about it. Also the cigarette might be a bit pricey but they have really good deals for the cartridges. Well you just confused me more ! I can't decide which one to buy, there are so many different brands to choose from and I don't want to get something again that I won't like.

Thanks for your replies,
Michael C.

That does seem to be the same model I have, the RN4081. The earlier model had the 'steel wool' of the atomizer jutting out and it fitted directly into the cartridge, which allowed the liquid to escape. This more recent model, the atomizer head is recessed into the metal tube of the atomizer and the cartridge fits into the tube, and the cap/mouthpiece goes over all of that, supposedly eliminating leakage.
