This is my full review on the Vapor 1000 from Vaporcig.com.
The Vapor 1000 Review-
Packaging When you first receive your Vapor 1000 Product it is packaged very nicely in a well designed box. I have kept two of my Vapor 1000 boxes to use as transport. The package provides nice support for the product and everything is nicely packaged. Grade A
Documentation Vaporcig.com provides a wealth of documentation with their product. I received the standard manual in the box itself, as well as a printed document that goes in to much more detail than the standard manual. This document includes the standard vaporizer information, as well as a FAQ and detailed maintenance information. I also received a small pamphlet on how to charge the batteries as well as using e-liquid. The documentation that is provided is a wealth of information that I would have loved to had when I bought my first vaporizer. Grade A+
Setup The setup for the Vapor 1000 is very similar to the setup of most vaporizers. The only difference I have noticed here is the fact that you should discharge the factory charge prior to conditioning the batteries. Here is another difference, Vaporcig.com recommends charging the batteries for 5 hours for the first 3 charges. I see no problems with this for people who live at home. For me, its a little tougher due to my constant work and travel. But still I have had no problem with conditioning my batteries. Grade B+
Atomizers The atomizer for the Vapor 1000 is smaller than the regular DSE 801s. I have not found this to be a problem at all, since all my cartridges fit just fine. I have tried generic cartridges as well as njoys. When you hook your battery to the atomizer it fits snuggly and does not have any air leakage, so you get a good draw. After priming and using for about 24 hours, the atomizer becomes a work horse. These atomizers produce a great amount of vapor, and you can tell that the flavors are wonderful do to the craftsmanship of the coils. The only thing I have found that could be an issue with the atomizers is if your cart gets low on liquid, the coils heat very high and can give you a slight bitter taste. Not a problem though if you keep your carts filled and primed. The documentation says it has a self cleaning mode. I do not believe it does after my continuous usage of the product. (This is good.J) Grade A
Batteries Here is the hard part. Many people have had a lot of trouble with the batteries. I myself had to exchange three batteries of my four batteries. Now, I believe the issue has been corrected. I have not read any complaints on the board about the batteries being bad for a while. These batteries are a new breed for sure. They provide a lot of air flow, which is good and bad. Good because you do not have to draw hard to get a good hit. Bad because the battery is sensitive and can provide a false reading regarding battery charge. This is what I have found. Nine fast flashes is the long drag cutoff. Twenty to twenty one slow flashes are the too many drags in under a minute warning. (This is what I believe people are seeing when they believe that the unit goes into self cleaning so often.) Last but not least, twenty five to twenty six slow flashes means the battery is low and needs replacing. These batteries do have a good charge that has lasted me at least six hours of good use. For someone who vapes less than I do, I can see you getting eight to ten hours of use. Now a downfall is due to the sensitivity of the batteries you can get a twenty flash cutoff more often than other 801s. Other than these slight issues, these batteries are a great step towards perfected long life batteries. Grade B
Miscellaneous This product is great for dripping. I have never had such a great vaporizer that works as well as the vapor 1000 for dripping. They produce a ton of vapor and you can drip a little more than usual without trashing the coils. I actually drip with my Vapor 1000s more that I use carts. As for maintenance, this product is not a cheap knock off. This is a very well engineered electronic. Keep it clean. And it will be a work horse for a long time to come. As for guarantee, Vaporcig.com has the best guarantee on the market. One year for batteries and five years on the atomizers. No one is going to sell an item with that kind of guarantee without truly believing in their produce. Vaporcig.com believes more in their product than I have ever seen before. Vaporcig.coms customer service is unmatched. You can reach them right on their website and usually receive a reply within an hour during business hours. Their local customer service reps in southern California are very knowledgeable and friendly. No one at Vaporcig.com pressures their customers in to a sale. If you have tried their product, you know it can sell itself. Grade A+
I hope this review is helpful to people who are considering a first or new vaporizer for their collection.
