Aye, a think you's could be on to something ere, thanks...
The thing I like about this LR901 I'm using now is, the draw needs only 2-3 seconds. And it still chucks out the vapour and flavour. Are the LR901s from Eastmall and LF like this?

Just an update on these LR Mega atties. I'm onto my 4th already The 1st one lasted just over a fortnight. The 2nd one faded pretty much from the off, chucked it after 4 days. Likewise the 3rd one. 4th one, thankfully spot on again, gorgeous vape. I think you may be right Ian, these do look to be more variable in performance than other atties. I'll enjoy them at the cheap price I paid, but won't be getting anymore when there's better options out there. Talking of which, I'm using for the 1st time an LR901 with adapter on my tornado, and it's really great. I only bought 2 to try, and they're very impressive. I think these are the ones I'll stock up with next. The ones I'm using are the Cisco 901LR. They're too expensive to use regularly, about £7 each. Are those Eastmall LR901s ok what everyone tried on here? If they are, i think I'll get some of those, as they do look to be a good price.

Just read on UK Vapers about this.
One of the early reviews mentions excessive leakage, not good.
I think there's a few types of juice feed systems coming out for tornado clones, just a matter of wait and see which ones get the best user reviews before I get one.

Yes, it really is unbelievable on there how the fanboys stick up for TW. The sales TW have had have been undeniably great, but what's wrong with people pointing out any errors they make. It seems they are above criticism, and here's me thinking the customer is always right.

Hurrah Finally The Don It was due for release around July/August. I was after a 18650 mod back then, and would have bought this for sure. But, since then, I've bought the Silver Bullet which does the job perfectly for me, so I'll be giving the Don a miss. Still, sure looks a good mod though.

Ah that's bad luck Ian. But that's atomisers for ya. I remember going through 4 x 901s and 5 x 510s standard resistance in a 6 week period. And I barely got a decent days vape out of any of them...dark days But since then, with sheer luck no doubt, I've had a good run with my atomisers, regular 510s, LR 510s, Megas, Cartos, for a good while now. Ultimately, I think it's all down to luck as to how long they last, no matter what type you choose. I tend to pile in at the sale prices, and if I do come across a dud, it's not so much of a problem. Unlike the olden days when I used to pay £20+ for a 5 pack, now it's closer to a tenner at sale prices, or in the case of these Mega LR's, £3 a pop. This Mega LR of mine is still running perfectly after a fortnights pretty heavy use. At the price I paid, I'd be happy with a week, as its a superior vape to anything else I've tried, so it's a bonus to me that it's still going.

1000mah just means it lasts longer between charges. I have a couple from the last TECC sale, I use one at home. It does last a fair while between charges but exactly the same power as the normal Tornado/Rivas.

I concur Perpy...really pleased I got a stackload of these at a bargain price. A normal LR510 is really nice on the Silver bullet, but I reckon these atties using on the tornado are just as good if not better, really satisfying. A tad more flavour with an equally decent throat hit - what more can we ask?

So far I've not had any problems with the carts that come with these, so I guess the fit is fine, certainly can't recall any becoming loose. I have since bought a driptip for them from Ivapour elixir. It's the EGO XL round tip, and it's pretty good, though a little odd looking. But it's comfortable and has a decent sized hole to drip into... Whoa, that sounds a bit risque now I've read it back

Kenny, as regards juice intake on these atties, I drip 4 drops instead of the usual 2 when direct dripping, these atties are big, mega even , so i guess they may use up more juice than the usual atties do. But it's a trade off worth having as they give a much better vape. For using them on other device Ian, they don't fit onto my silver bullet (wish they did), as the connection is covered by about a cm. Maybe its possible to use some sort of adapter, though I've not tried any as I've got none! I'm finding with the LR's, the mellower flavours are getting a bit lost (RY4, fruity stuff), but for tobaccos they're spot on. And just trying a bit of coffee, Cafe Brasiliano, and that is perfection too on these.

I've ordered a boatload from the TW sale, all LR's.
I started with the standard Mega atty from the TECC sale to try, and really liked them.
The LR's are a bit cheaper, and seem to be just as good, though I've only been using it 3-4 days so far. It gives a big throat hit, plenty of vapour and flavour too.
I have used them with carts/filler, and with empty carts direct dripping. Both methods work fine, just a matter of personal preference...so you don't have to buy the padded carts - if you think you'll be happy with dripping, they come with an empty cart.
For the filled carts, they do take a lot of juice, didn't measure it but a guess would be about 30 odd drops liquid.
They fit all tornado sizes, and my Riva accepts them too.

Thanks Bucko, if i catch the 51% again, i'll get some to try, didn't want to have to buy the mega batts too...lol so are they better than the normal LR's then, d'ya think? I think so Lilac. My favourite for a while has been the regular Mega atty. The LR is very similar in draw, it produces a thick vapour, and has a more noticable throat hit. The biggest difference between these LR's and a normal LR is flavour. Way more. It's only been 2 days using the Mega LR, but I think so far they're even better than the regular Mega atty. The only thing that can let it down now is how long it lasts, but at the discounted price it's not so much of an issue. So, erm, yes, they rock

Can you use the mega LR atties with the normal batteries? These can be used on all tornado's riva's etc. I don't buy the carts for the Mega atties. I've been direct dripping with them, you get an empty tip which does the job fine. Though I have ordered a XL drip tip from Ivapour, probably be a bit better to use, and I think is the only place that sells them. They're the XL Ego round drip tips.
