So i bought 2 ecigs from ebay. one, an 084 knockoff (which ive previously alluded), which is great! the other, one of those 'health e-cigarettes', which gives very poor flavor, and poor throat hit.

ive used both, back to back, with multiple flavors of liquid, and swapped carts (between models, to make sure it wasnt a cart issue), and am almost certain this has to do with the atomizer.

it tastes like my other model does just before the battery dies. which leads me to believe the atty on the 'health e-cigarette' isnt cooking as hot.

is this a fair conclusion? and should i invest in a new atty, or is this probably a battery issure?

(other than that, i like both PVs a lot! and although im planning to buy a 901, id prefer not to throw these away when i do... they will make great gifts! which reminds me, i need to start saving for christmas gifts!) haha

Don't throw anything away. They're good for emergency backups. The Health e-cigs are cheap 401's. I have a lot of them, and all are working good. The carts are crappy though. When the cart is empty, push out the inner core sleeve, and scrape the foil and plastic seal off the top. You can refill them. when you restock, get standard 401 carts.

I say , give them away as presents and upgrade yourself. :) Check out Home page . They're new, fully in stock, have great prices and amazing customer service. :)

Prices look reasonable, and if the service is what you say it is, great.

BUT!! I always suggest not to get rid off *all* old e-cigs, in case a problem comes up. Sort of like driving cross country with no spare tire.

It might be the primer on the atomizer...Whenever I get new atomizers for my 801 it is so disgusting! I think they should put warning labels on not inhaling the first hundred puffs until that primer is gone..

Those chemicals can't be good to inhale! I have to air out my entire room after getting the primer off because it smells so bad!
