Well the eroll is very old. I was hoping for:
- more vapor
- different attys, ones that dont get clogged up as much
- thanks that can hold more juice..
- more realistic looking
- lighter
- soft tip
All we get is cosmetic changes? (besides the 3 ppc kit which is handy I admit)
The eRoll is less than two years old, and while it may have a few shortcomings, I'm not sure it can be engineered at this point to meet your level of expectation.
Until there's an affordable advancement in nano technology, a 90maH lion battery is gonna be a bit heavy, and take up a fair amount if space (relatively speaking). And to increase the tank size, you would have to lengthen the whole ecig or use a smaller battery, which is already at minimum specs for a useable product.
Personally, I don't want any more vapor production from my eRoll. I often vape in bars, and the level of vapor produced from my eRoll is often clouds up the establishment and invites comments.
As far as the atty, I've not seen a better design out there - which isn't to say that the wick doesn't get clogged up. But the point is moot because even when you increase the flow of the wick, you still get resin on the coil from all the impurities in the juice. The coil, then, becomes inefficient and exacerbates the problem of less vapor production and short battery life.
This is why I always recommend juices with lower total dissolved solids, and I think juice companies need to work to produce cleaner juices that don't wreak havoc on coils and wicks. Until this happens, no reusable ecig product will be turnkey and maintenance free. Yes, I know, your favorite mod doesn't get clogged up as quickly as the eRoll, but that's the price you pay for form factor.
I recommend finding juices that work well with the eRoll and stick with them - save all the sticky sweet juices for the mods. And with the right juice attys can last months which is a huge money and time saver.
As far as the soft tip, I'm with you and I'm not excited about the metal coated tanks. Metal on teeth just creeps me out.
Oh, and there might be not-so-obvious changes that aren't just cosmetic. It appears like they changed the tank design, so it'll be interesting to see any advantages there. And they may have tightened the manufacturing tolerances to minimize some of the leak points - this is just pure speculation and hope as I have not read any reports of tighter fitting components in the eRoll system.
