Ok, first of all this is the first review I've done on any PV. I won a contest from Truesmoker and got a free Dragon kit from JD. You can see it here.

I'm not doing this review just because I won. I'm doing it because I'm seriously impressed with the performance. It's a 401mini style and the only one I've ever tried of this size was a Smoking Everywhere 6 months ago. Of course that was garbage so I've never tried any other model of this size thinking they would all be the same. WRONG!
I got this yesterday at 11a.m. Before I even opened the box I could tell a lot of time and money went into the design and printing. Really well done. It came with a leather carry case with the Dragon logo on the front and holds 2 batts, 2 carts, and an atty. Everything is black with the gold Dragon and looks very high class.
I started using it immediately with the battery that was already on the attomizer and put the other battery on charge. I really like this charger. It's a usb cable that can also plug in to the included wall adapter.
I've been using a 510 exclusively for the last month or so. With the very first hit of the Dragon I knew it would be a serious contender with the 510. Huge vapor clouds and a very heavy throat hitter. I wanted to try my favorite Red Bull juice in it but was waiting for the cartridge it came with to run dry first. I smoked it for a good half hour and it was showing no signs of running low on juice so I pulled the cartridge to add a few drops of RBull. You can't really see the batting in the cartridge unless you use a flashlight. It's really deep inside and has a rim around it so it can't get stuck to the atty and get pulled out. I added about 6 drops of juice and one to the atty and started up again. Man, this thing is the bomb! And this was from a battery that I wasn't even sure was comletely charged which brings me to what I think is the best part of this gem. Battery life. The one I put on charge finished in about 1 1/2 hours and the one I was using never did run down but I wanted to try a fresh charge battery. So I swapped them and started vaping some more and the fresh battery added even more to the experience. The Red Bull juice seemed like it had a lot more flavor than it did in the 510. The vapor was equal if not a bit more to the 510. These are auto batteries and I was impressed with the cut off time because at first I thought there was no cut off. The draw is as close to a real cigarette as you can get and I was hitting it for about 5 or 6 seconds and there was no cut off. If there is a cut off I can't make it happen. I pulled on it for a good 8 to 10 seconds and couldn't go any further and it still didn't cut off.
So how long did the 2 batteries last? I didn't really time each one but after charging them both I went from 11a.m. to midnight on 1 charge each. Got up this morning at 6 and started up again and went another 2 hours. The vapor started decreasing so I swapped in a charged battery even though it never died I knew it was getting low. That's 15 hours of constant vaping on 2 batteries!! That's no exaggeration and I don't know how it's possible with this size battery but its true. I never put it down for more than a few minutes that whole time. I have a Screwdriver a bunch of 901's a couple 801's and a 510. After 1 1/2 days of use the Dragon is now my main PV. It really is a top performer. I can't find anything about it that I would change. Truesmoker has a winner. Thanks a bunch JD. And whatever your paying to the company that put the Dragon logo on everything is well worth it. Top quality stuff. I already went to your store to get some spare atty's but they are sold out. Get some more!! I'm using this thing so much I wanna have a few backups in case I burn it up from over use.
