  1. Blowing it out is always a good idea. What I usually do it turn my atomizers upside down on a cloth right before I hit the sack. I let all the old juice run out. Then in the morning I pick it back up, add a few drops and I'm good to go. I also change my atomizer about once a month. If you can afford it, it's a good idea.

    I used to "drain and blow" in a dedicated manner. Nowadays I don't. I just screww an atty onto my Screwdriver and use it until the performance drops (or it dies) and then bin it and put on a new one. I get the best part of three weeks from each atty. Given I can buy 5 packs of attys and each atty costs less than a packet of cigs does, it's scarcely worth worrying about...

  2. I need to find a good Marlboro red juice for the other half. Any suggestions?

    Dekang now call Marlboro Red "USA Red" - lots of suppliers resell Dekang juice - you can usually tell from the bottles, which are distinctive - see: http://www.ecisdirect.com/en/catelogue.asp The bottle tops have YNDK impressed into their sides.

    I've found all their tobacco flavours pretty good

  3. They look a little different, the screwdriver is made by trog in the UK and I belive they all use 901 attys, the prodigy is made by puresmoker in the US and is availble in 801, 901, and 510 versions the prodigy is a little more expensive and I belive runs at a higher voltage (but don't quote me on that I'm not positive, it does run higher than a regular ecigg just can't remember if the screwdriver does or not)

    The Screwdriver is available in 901 and 801 versions. You can get adapters for the 901 version to allow the SD to be used with 510 and 801 attys too from e-cigcity.co.uk (trog doesn't like adapters). The Screwdriver is nominally a 3.7v device, but in reality it is a 4.1v or so device. My review of the SD is here:

  4. Drinking and Vaping.

    I have been known to slam a few Bud Ices, especially when the Sunday beer band is in session, it was hard at first, I play guitar and my mouth wasn't strong enough to hold the pen style, in time I did beat it. I usually have a 901 rockin, its no problem, just make sure you have adequate juice (both kinds), I have customers ask me this alot. I usually do the 36 when I'm slammin' cold pops, its very enjoyable actually. Totally satisfies.

    I vape most of the time - period. I vape in the pub (I've found most pubs will allow it around here) - I never have more than 4 pints (normally Guinness or Fullers London Pride) so inebriation isn't a problem. The weird thing is I get less attention using my screwdriver than I do using a normal (901) e-cig.

  5. Still comes down to responsibility, any of the liquids could be harmful if not used correctly or properly stored out of the reach of younglings.

    Indeed - if someone ingested any quantity of eliquid at almost any strength it could be very nasty (or worse).

    However, it is important to realise that when you vape only a proportion (I suspect small - I recall seeing something about analogs which showed that with them the proportion is VERY small) of the nicotine in the liquid is actually taken in by you. Also, vaping is a gradual process - we all know that you can make yourself feel "off" by vaping excessively. If you vaped 54mg juice this would just happen quicker, it still isn't so strong that you could kill yourself accidently by just vaping I'm sure. The UK has a limit of 75mg on nicotine liquid before it becomes subject to heavy regulation.

  6. Well if your only going to clean the carts then water is just fine. Drop the carts in water for about 10 minutes, then rinse each one. Let them dry over night and your good to go.

    Keep in mind that you can purchase empty carts online for pretty cheap.

    LOL! I started out with intentions of cleaning carts and restuffing them. Six months later I have a box with a very large quantity of use carts of various sorts (901/510/801) and an unopened box of Fluval 2 plus :)

    I was better with the attys, I used to drain and blow them religiously - now I do it "if I think they need it" - with an atty costing less than a packet of cigs, and lasting up to a months of single continuous use without any real attention, I've become idle...

  7. I have to agree, anything that uses a Penstyle atty is the way to go. (DSE801, RN4072, VP1 Janty Stick, KISSBOX)

    I've only used the 510 and 801 atomisers on a Screwdriver (have used the 901 as well on the SD as also as a Mini). My view is:

    510 - hit

    801 - vapour

    901 - flavour

    In my opinion the 901 gives best flavour with a good battery source. I'm told by other that the 401 is better still but haven't tried it as yet (waiting for an adapter)
