I love my eRoll so much I'm ordering enough spare parts that I'll have two of each of the three colors and both tank colors. I took it in to the self-proclaimed most comprehensive and biggest B&M smoke store in the area and my fave clerk went NUTS over it, thought it was super cool, and plans to try to talk the owner into stocking eRolls or the Ovale eMini. Yay! Now, if I can just get them to resell my fave eJuice flavors like Pink Spot, so I can impulse-buy locally and not wait for vape-mail...
The eRoll's compact and elegant, and I like how easy it is to vape while commuting. No leaking issues beyond a little overfill-related moisture on the tank. Right now I have two black and one silver with dark tanks, and my only warning is for the farsighted, in that the "draw hole" and the cone's locking "bump" can be hard to see in dim light on a black eRoll. If you can manage the smoke-grey tanks, though, you'll be fine.
Can usually fill tanks without removing their endcaps and without a syringe but it isn't easy if your juice is thick. Thankfully Wordup gave me a free syringe as I put too much faith in my agility and smugly assumed I could load the tanks with no problems because ECF folks told me the secret. Well, thick juice resists going in the tanks through the "tilt the tank and drip on the edge of the fill hole" technique.
Have only been
vaping for a while, and started with an eGo-CE4 batt-plus-tank starter, which I still use. The eRoll gives me more aesthetic pleasure all 'round, but, yes, the tanks are wee, and it's meant to be treated like an analog tobacco cig, in that you hit it 5-10 times then pop it back in the PCC, and swap to the spare or spares you have on hand. The eGo is more for chain-
vaping in private, the eRoll for portable vapes that resemble "real" cigs and invite fewer questions.
A smoker pal is about to give vaping a try and I've recommended a basic eGo and eRoll not because the eGo can't be beat, but because if he doesn't take to it, he may resell it, but if he likes it, there are thousands of parts he can swap around. Same with the eRoll. If he's trying to quit, the eRoll will satisfy a lot of the smoking ritual behavior when in public, while also fitting in his pocket. He can also experiment with flavors while he's learning what he likes best, and just swap tanks out.
I'm happy with the first vapes I bought, as each fulfills a different need. I've only smoked one analog clove after starting vaping, and it tasted gross. Success! One day I may start buying fancier batts and tanks, especially the shiny etched eGo-compatible batts, but so far have only bought a tinted double-size Kanger clearo to supplement the standard wicked CE4-style tank.
