Hello MasonM, Anguskay here. I recently purchased an Njoy Npro myself and have found only a few things that lever into the negative category. Number 1 is that I haven't seen any opportunity to replace the atomizer. They (at least I haven't found a link) don't offer it. Number 2 is that they recommend NOT to refill their carts, and won't advertise anything for it for reasons of toxicity in the "juices". Thirdly is the cost of the carts. Twenty bucks for ten carts is quite steep.
I've been online for a couple weeks researching the refilling of carts. I have found a website that offers carts for the Njoy penstyle but not the Npro. Website was called e-Smokey Treats. I bought five empty carts not knowing they weren't compatible, but I am using the stuffing from them in my used carts for the Npro. I also bought two 30 mg bottles of juice from them, one mint and the other Marlboro, and have used them quite successfully.
There are several videos, from this site, that show different ways of filling them. The best I found was to push the little cart out from the mouthpiece using a bent paperclip, and then pull out the fiber. I rinsed the fiber off under hot water, and pressed it with toilet paper to soak up the water. Then about thirty seconds with a hair dryer to dry it off. Now the fun part...I dropped about ten drops of juice into the EMPTY cart, then replace the fiber. Make sure you don't have any pools, my juice bottle came with a dropper so I used that to draw any excess from the top. Experimentation has found ten drops won't leave much excess.
Good luck and good vaping!

They do offer it but at $24.99 forget it!

Puresmoker.com PeeWee atomizers and carts fit the NPRO. Cheaper price and faster shipping.

Hi all. I started on the nPRO. Now that I have a 901, I can compare and perhaps answer this question.

- the nJoy Npro works ok, but I found it hard to get a consistently good hit off of it. Found that I was running down the battery trying.

- One of my batteries is defective (it goes into 'cleaning mode' immediately and won't stop). To be fair, battery problems are hardly unique to the nPro from what I've read.

- The carts have a comically tiny capacity. Don't hold more than 10 solid hits.

- The flavor they put in the carts is awful, but this is just my opinion.

Mainly my beef with them is the advertising. Telling inexperienced users not to refill is a scam. Also, the claims they make about cartridge life and how many cigs one cart replaces are way off. I was going through 2.5, 3 carts a day. After reading the brochure I thought the product was defective, or there was something wrong with me. It turned out that nJoy was simply lying.

Fun fact: I tried dripping directly into the atomizer on the nPro and got a good hit, and the atomizer seems fine.

Hope this helps...

Like you I picked my njoy at a truck stop and so far my biggest beef with it is that the draw is not as easy as I would like.

Steve at PureSmoker.com sells the atomizers and carts for the NPro, it's called a PeeWee there.

I agree that NJoy charges way too much for the carts. They could slash it by half and still be charging more than everyone else. Kind of stupid of them really as they are killing their repeat business as people discover they can get them online for a fraction of the cost. Very dumb marketing IMHO

Get yourself a pen style. They draw much better, the carts last longer, and the batteries hold a charge much longer.
