i have one of these...actually, i have 5 of them. let me give you a little review of what i think of the rn-4062 aka the bada bing.

they come in woodgrain and black. i originally ordered a black model but was sent a wood grain. so after speaking with the dealer i ordered from they gladly sent me 2 black tubes to replace the single woodgrain model. totally cool on their part and gives them lots of street cred.

well, pretty much upon touching them, the black tubes broke. the small threaded brass ring that you screw your carts into fell out on both. something that could be remedied with some good epoxy im sure but inconvenient none the less.

so i contact the company, they send me TWO more black tubes. now during this time ive been smoking the woodgrain model and have grown quite fond of it. well, i decide to break in one of my new black ones since it was what i had originally ordered. the first one i tried the atomizer is bad. cant be replaced without replacing the tube and at this point, i wouldnt ask them to send me another. not because im unsatisfied, but theyve already sent me 4 tubes that they really didnt have to without ever asking me to send back the original. now thats good customer service. back to the tubes...

so out 4 black tubes, only one actually works and stays together at the same time. the wood grain tube is still vaping as hard as it was the first day i got it and im on about week 4.

the carts hold quite a bit of juice, and the vapor production is great compared to my friends Njoy e-cig. i went with the cigar model for cartridge size and hopes that the battery charges would last longer. the batteries are ok, i probably go through 2 a day, but i find myself vaping probably more than i should be anyways.

my review for this model is pretty much this...dont get the black model lol. no seriously though, i probably had bad luck with them...but this wood grain 4062 is a workhorse and thats the best thing i can say about it. total workhorse and my lungs are in love with it.

Sinner,
Do your cartridges have filler that looks like chopped fiberglass? All fibers inline, not woven. I agree that the cigar, I don't know if mine are true 901's or what, are a joy to smoke. I go through a "few" batteries everyday. Keep 3 on charge at all times. I used to some cigars and "little cigars" because cigarettes just didn't give me enough NIC. The cigar fits my style more. I have several e-cigs but like the cigar. Check the structure of the black tip of one of your cartridges. I have a few that I cut the tip off and blended the shape to feel more like a cigar when smoked. Easier to drip into without removing the tip every time, and doesn't look like an E-BONG when I'm walking around puffing without the tip at all.

the filler in my carts seems to be more of like a wool/polyester combo maybe? ive been refilling my own carts so ive washed them a few times (just cold water) and they seem to have held up. of course thanks to johnson creek smoke juice taking their sweet time getting my order together (it was their sampler kit too, should be one of those things that they have on standby) i wont be filling anything up til next week. back to analogs by the weekend thanks to a poorly informative website! sorry...thats a side note, not usually like me to bash a company but im pretty frustrated with them right now.

as far as the tip, i like the idea...im not overly fond of the tip on these things. ive thought about taking the black tip off and drilling a larger hole through the mouth piece to increase vapor production. not that i really need increased vapor production with this sucker lol.

i actually compare smoking my e-gar to smoking a hooka. nice long easy draws and lots of vapor

ive been having problems with my batteries, they just dont seem to hold a charge. they came pre-charged in the box, which worries me anyway. if you take proper care of rechargeable batteries you can get some really good life out of them.

at first i was getting probably 8hrs of heavy use out these batteries. now im lucky to get about 4 hrs of less usage. when i first got on vaping i went crazy, my bada bing never left my hand. now ive slowed off and am vaping about as much as i smoked analogs.

anyways...i ordered these.
UltraFire 10440 AAA Li-Ion 3.6V Rechargeable Battery 500 mAh CR10440 Lithium Ion
they have a slightly better mah rating of 500 instead of 360 and should hold a longer charge.

im hoping they arrive today or tomorrow. once theyve been tested i'll report back with the results. if this works out like i hope itll be a great battery for the price and something my fellow bada bingers may want to look into.

I bought 6 of the ultrafire 10mm x 44mm batteries (from another source) and 5 don't hold much of a charge after about a month of heavy use. I don't think the mah rating is accurate. It's hard to believe these have a capacity 40% greater than the rest of the industry. Even with all that, $3 or so per battery, who can really complain? I still have about 10 batteries for my cigars and 6 chargers (keep some at work others at home). The 10x43 and 10x44 batteries seem to work the same. I've had one of the original batteries go thermal (hot then hotter then - - - ) had to toss it out. E-cigs and e-cigars aren't perfect but are a lot better than smokeing real tobacco. I'll put up with a little trouble.

im with you on that last statement bro. e-smoking may be a pain in the a** sometimes, but its better than the alternative in my opinion.

as for the batteries...so far so good. im getting about 24 hrs out of a charge instead of 5-6 hrs, so im happy. i hope these hold their charges longer than the ones you purchased rocket, but at the the price its not like i can complain.

WARNING!!!
Do NOT buy from this website!! I spent $106.95 on my order. The cigar died after a week. They claim to have a "30 day money back guarantee". What a joke! I have sent Alan Hood 5 emails and called 4 times and left messages. No returned phone calls and no reply to the emails! STAY AWAY!! CUSTOMER SERVICE SUCKS!! There is NO customer service!!! DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY!!!!!!

saasione,
sorry you had bad luck with the cigar.
Looks like your vendor is "out of stock" for all e-cigars. In fact he has pulled all stock. This might be another one of those Paypal duck out issues hitting a lot of small vendors.
He should of course answer emails and make some type of
arrangement with you.
If you are an experienced vaporer and you really think the failure is not your fault
then continue to try and contact the seller. Your first notification date should establish your failure date. He will probably want to have you send the cigar back for an exchange. Some of the products you ordered may not be eligible for refund because of health risks, like cartridges and juice. I also started out with the e-cigar, and a pile of cartridges. Works like a fogger - when it works. Gave it up because $24 (or more) for a atomizer failure was just too risky for me.

Try and work with your vendor, if at all possible. If you decide to keep trying the cigar, get more than one (maybe even straight from China).

I hope this disappointment passes and you continue to vape.

Best to you,

The Rocket

Rocketman, your response to the understandably troubled saasione in his hour of need is so.... soooo..... calming... soothing... almost uplifting... I feel reborn... almost like, like, mmmmmmm... poooffff.... a religious experience... mmmmmm... poooffff.... I thank you for your ministry at this gathering place for those seeking solace through vaping, your smokiness... mmmmmmmm... poooofffff.... mmmmmm, pooooffffff...

Thanks Rocketman. I did everything that I was told to do with it. When finished smoking for the day, take out the battery and cartridge and turn it upside down so that any excess liquid will drain out and not "gum up" the switch or get into the battery compartment. This is my first cigar. Not my first cig. I have a 901 & 510. I took your advice and continued to try and contact Alan Hood (from ecigarettecigar.com) all week long. Sent several more emails and left a bunch of voice messages. NO RESPONSE WHATSOEVER! Again, I would say, DO NOT do business with this man!! "30 day money back guarantee", what a JOKE!! If anyone out there offers a repair service, I would be happy to send it out to you. : )
Thanks again Rocket~

I took all the "guts" out of one of my dead cigars and used the stainless steel tube for another project i had. It's a really nice tube.

When the atomizer goes south on an e-cigar, the only repair I know of is to replace the part that goes between the lens cap and the cartridge.

The seller I got mine from finally quit carrying them and sent me my first 084 gratis.
I felt he had absorbed enough loss so I just quit the e-cigar. Vapes like tractor until it dies.
