Which e-cigarette do I have?

[Stefdar]

First let me say hi, my name is Stefanos, I am from Greece,
and I 've been vaping for two weeks now.
Mine is the usual story, purchased a "greek" model of an e-cig cause it's selling in a bookstore chain and it's easier for me to find cartridges,
but I am not satisfied at all with the quality of the cartridges, they don't last long at all, or the smoke, or the general contstruction.
Can any of you fine people tell me which type of e-cig did I buy, I have an attached photo, plus I can tell you that the cigarette is made of 3 pieces, the battery, the atomizer, and in the end the cartridge that serves as a mouthpiece.

I have started reading these forums for a week now, and my next purchase is a Janty Yentl (I am a fan of e-cigs that look sort of real). Do you think I made a good choice? Right now the e-cig that I have lasts for about 20 puffs, and the batteries for about 1,5 hours, and the cartridges sell for 8 euros a box of 5. The ecig it's self comes with a charger, 2 batteries and 5 cartridges for 79 euros, and each battery for 23 euros.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Another thing I forgot to add is that the total length is 100 mm.

It looks a bit like an M401, but based on reviews, the M401 definitely out-performs what you've described. I don't know the conversions between Euros and US Dollars, so I don't know how much you paid. Maybe it's something along these lines: www|dealextreme|com/details.dx/sku.18431. 20 puffs and 1.5 hours doesn't seem like a lot

Looks like a super mini to me and €23 for a battery is outrageous = £20 or $ 31

Go to YouTube.com and search "e-cigarette NOBACCO". Looks like your e-cig, but I don't know what language it's in.

That looks exactly like the njoy npro I bought and now returned. What your going to find is the battery life and cartridge life on all the smaller more realistic looking e cigs is less than to be desired.

Honestly you will probably enjoy something like a DSE901 better than the smaller units. The DSE901 seems to be one of the forum favorites. Also you will be much better off purchasing some E-Liquid and topping off your cartridges instead of buying new cartridges all the time. It is much cheaper to use the liquid. I was like you in wanting an e cig that looked like a real cig but I quickly learned that wasnt really the best way to go. Another thing you could do is use a real looking one while out and about and use a bigger e cig while at home.


EDIT: I have to ask you a question. How are americans treated that visit greece? I heard that it can be dangerous for americans that visit because the people dont like americans. Is that true? I have always wanted to visit greece.

I have to jump in here about visiting Greece as I also am Greek but was raised in the US,but have visited many times. I do not think it is dangerous at all,but I may be biased. I always felt very safe, even not knowing the language. Biggest issue is to make sure that they charge you the correct amount/exchange rate for things(taxi's were the biggest problem for me). When I visited Italy, I was much more guarded and saw a lot more scamming over there, but would go back there in a heartbeat anyway as I loved it there too.
Try to go to Greece and make sure to hit the islands.

Lol prostreet I just have to comment on your question.

While your Government may not be the most popular thing since sliced bread in Europe at the moment.

I dont think anyone is going to hold you personally responsible for their policy.

There are a few narrow minded people every where you go in the world but the majority will welcome you with open arms.

Come to Europe go to Greece or even better Scotland we need your $$$$

HAHA thanks Steph and Keef for the quick answers! My wife (we just got married Nov 1st!) is a big travel person and I mentioned I would like to visit greece and she was all for it. I was told by somebody that cruise ships warn people when they get off the boat that greece is not a very friendly place and to be careful and thats why I asked. For some reason I have a fascination with greek history. I think it was the movie 300 that sparked it and trust me I know that movie was a far cry from what really happened.


Steph I see you live in montgomery county Pa. I live south in montgomery county maryland. I used to drive to lancaster, york, millersville, quakertown and the poconos all the time when my ex fiance lived in Pa. Are you near any of those areas? Im not sure where moco pa is?

Been to Greece a couple of times in the past couple of years...one time to Athens and one time to Mykonos. Never had the slightest bit of problems; everyone seemed plenty friendly. I think the key is to try to blend in and not stick out like a sore thumb....as so many tourists are apt to do.

Thanks for your answers,
I do have a Nobacco e-cig but I was wondering what kind it was in model terms,
so I suppose it's an M401?
As for Greece believe me it's a very friendly place and just another European country like all the rest. What you may hear about unfriendliness is not true.

Sorry for the delayed response but you know, the time difference.

Did you not love Mykonos? My Father was from there and it's one of the best places in the world to me. Lots of beautiful scenery, partying and smoking of course!

Congrats on your marriage! Go to Greece and don't worry. You'll want to see all of the historic sites in Athens of course,but then go to the islands(my Dad was from Mykonos so of course that's my fav). One of the most beautiful and fun places in the world.
Montgomery County Pa is about 45 min NE of Philadelphia. Or 45 min south of Quakertown. My sister is now living in Baltimore and I'm getting to know that area,but not sure where Montco County in Maryland is. She lives near Hopkins.
