X-POWER 900c Vaporizer Starter Kit

I love the looks and features of this kit compared to my Riva. This may well become the nicest one out there in the Ego,Riva type of E-Cigs

 

[dongenero]

Yes, I got both the 900 and the 900C. I like them both a LOT more than my ego and rivas for several reasons. 1. I prefer cartridges to the hassel of cartomizers (and I refuse to use the drip, vape, drip, vape, drip, vape all day method) and the cartridge holds about 22 drops of e-liquid - which is wonderful and a LOT more than any other standard cartridge. 2. It is a about a 1/16th of an inch bigger in diameter than the ego/rivas, which though only a little bit, makes it much more comfortable to hold. 3. The area where the button/switch is *much* nicer - larger with a slight groove to it. 4. The button is a bit bigger and of much better quality than the eGO. 5. I got the black and it has a very interesting feel to it. It's metal, but it feels a bit soft - it's hard to describe, but it feels great in the hand. I got mine when you could only get them in China, so it's great the companies in the us of a are finally beginning to carry them. Having all three - the XPower, riva and ego, I can say by all ways of comparing them that the XPower wins by a mile. Hope this helps.

Soooo, I've been thinking about grabbing ahold of one of these units from LiteCig...

Looking at the pictures, it appears as though a 510 atty would screw onto it. Any chance you could verify this for me, screw one on and let us know if a 510 fits??

Hello Osmitty.

I was lucky and got the "inside" scoop when they were creating the XPower. They wanted to make something to kick the eGO's .... So one thing they did was to sit down and carefully try out all of the standard attys to see which one was actually the best. They found that the "it was lost in the shuffle" 301 was the best. So they modified it to hold three times as much fluid in the cartridge as the rest of the crowd. I have both the 510 eGO 900 and the XPower 900 with it's 301 mod and I can say without any reservations that their 301 has the same or better flavor/taste and clearly produces more vapor. I too was a 510 fan until I used this one.

My reply just got lost in the ether. Hope this isn't a doublepost.

Osmitty, I just tried screwing in a 510 into both the Xpower 900 and 650. It fits but it's loose and not an exact fit so it wobbles of course. If you must use a 510 atty on the X, then you might need to do something like wrapping the white plumber's tape around the 510 thread. The tape will shred a little as you screw in the 510, exposing some metal surface to make a connection. Not the most elegant solution but it's a make-shift one, at least until Smoore (or someone with initiative) has a factory produce a M301-510 adapter.
Litecig does sell the X batteries by themselves but you'll need to have an M301 or M601 charger already. I have no idea who would be selling a usb charger alone for the X.

dongenero, interesting to hear about the inside scoop. By "they", I assume you mean Smoore. How did you hear this? Not doubting you, but background stories are always interesting so I'm very curious.

Just thought I would point out this link doesn't work anymore.

Hello Kemuri.

I had been researching my first e-cig for several months - ending up getting ego and XPower. About 4 months ago I just happened to come across one of the China companies on the "Alibaba" website that carried the XPower and they were the *only* one on the planet at the time that I could find that had it. It was Smoore and I bought directly from them. I got a complete - two bats, two cartos, two covers 900c and complete 900 with two covers, attys, and bats, plus 2 usb and 2 wall chargers, plus 10 more cartos and cartridges for less than $100 including shipping. I must prefer the atty one because the cart is so dang big and I don't have to mess with carto refills. If I'm wrong about what I posted, it was because the manager misled/bs'ed me, but given how well the atty and cart works, it makes sense to me.

The 510 has more threads per inch, so I'd be hesitant to screw it into a 301. But after you've tried the XPower atty plus cart, my quarter says you'll prefer it - but opinions and noses - we all have one. ;-)

 

[dongenero]

This should Michael: smoore x power

For some reason, they are only showing 900c "starter kit", but you can buy the 900 atty's. Having both, while the 900c is good, I love the atty plus cart version.

 

[dongenero]

Sorry Kemuri, I think that I didn't exactly answer your question. What I did was keep asking technical question the salesperson couldn't answer and kept pestering her to let me move up the chain. After a sales manager couldn't answer them, he referred me to a technical manager who could.

For those interested in the little known 301 atty which came on a 'back of the pack' e-cig that wasn't improved with the others, here is an interesting review of the 301 atty which was the 301's strong point. Comes with photos of the large bridge.

Glad you were persistent in getting answers up the chain, dongenero.

Since I already have the M301/601 configuration, I didn't bother ordering the XPower cartridge, assuming it would be identical to the M301 cartridge and it has been working well. But as you mention the X cartridge holding more liquid, I'll order a pack the next time. It's always good to have more liquid in the reservoir.

Just tried the LR 301 (Cisco version) with the clear drip tip. Here we get into the matter of taste but the M301 is (for me) much superior in flavor. The LR301 is fine but it won't be replacing the M301/601 and the BE112 as my standards.

 

[dongenero]

Hello again Kemuri. I don't know what M301/601 "configuration" you have, but just like with the new Mega eGO cartridge where one has to order the Mega Atty, same is true for XPower sized cart plus atty. In order to get more volume in the cart, a part of that was needing to make the sides of the original 301 atty 'deeper'. So you'd have to get a new matching atty to use larger cart.

I just ordered the xpower 900c to go with my Riva. I'm hoping it is as great as everyone says. Will post thoughts when I get it.

I hope that you like it as well and am looking forward to your opinion. I do prefer the cart plus atty because of the cart's size, but because most carts are so small, it seems like hardly anyone but me uses them anymore.

 

[Jackal3]

I tell you what: Filling the Xpower cartridge up and using it to vape while driving far outlasts the 901 cart/atty setup on my Omega. I can get all the way to work 40 min. drive using the Xpower, whereas I'd have to refill the cart 3-4 times at red lights on my Omega.

I will be watching for you review...might like it with my Riva as well..

 

[jdkochla]

I just received my xpower 900 kit from onlyecig.com (smoore outlet). I also ordered an extra atomizer and cone so I have 2 complete ecigs. The total came to
$67 including the $15 shipping. So far I think it is better than my riva and ego. The draw is easier and the TH and vapor are great. The cartridges are very big and one full
cart lasted about 6 hours of high vapeing. I will post an update in a week or so..

 

[paulc35]

I couldn't agree more. The Xpower 900 is wonderfull and kind of puts the Riva to shame. The Riva is nice until you get The Xpower, which is larger the Carts are bigger last longer have a much smoother draw.
I take three of my ecigs with me every day. A KR808D-1,Riva, and Xpower 900c, but I vape on the Xpower 90% of the time. I just wish the 301 cartomizers were more prevalent. These are great Carts.

 

[jdkochla]

Does your xpower charger light change colors when the battery is charged?? Mine just stays green.

 

[Jackal3]

when I first screw the battery to the charger the light on the charger goes red. The button on the battery flashes purple, while simultaneously flashing the orange end of the battery. There are 4-5 flashes, then it stops. When the battery is charged the light on the charger turns green. I unscrew it, and vape for 15 hours.
