*****WARNING JOYETECH PRODUCTS*****

[planes]

I don't know how else to get this message across. I've had 3 of the last 3 products from the joyetech company die.

My first eleaf died within 3 months. The replacement died within 3 months and the eVic VT died within 3 days of receipt.

joyetech refuses to resolve the eleaf matter and I am currently dealing with returning the 3rd joyetech product for a different item.

This is totally unacceptable and I will never purchase another product from this lousy company again.

You may have had different experiences but this string of faulty items purchased over the course of six months should give caution to anyone contemplating a Joyetech product.

 

[crxess]

Perhaps you are slightly abusive.

Have you pondered who so many are enjoying their Joyetech products?

There must be a reasonable explanation.

 

[planes]

What do you mean abusive. I don't hit or scream at my devices.

Doesn't explain the eVic dying in 3 days. I use it as I use my other devices which are fine after years of use. There have been a fair amount of users that have had similar instances as this.

One can't explain away two eleafs dying within the same amount of time. Or eVics dying within 3 days.

My iStick 50W started to only give me 8-10W at all settings, but my evic VTC mini and iStick 100W are working fine. With the numbers these are selling, there are bound to be some issues.

 

[planes]

Yea but all three to the same person? That's a hundred percent faulty items from my viewpoint.

 

[Vchick]

Highly unusual, I've had over 20 products from them, the only ones that died were from old age. You've never said where these were purchased from, or if they were genuine. Is it possible you got clones?

 

[Toronnah]

Cheap Chinese crap people. These things die early deaths more than people here care to admit.

For me, I had a Coolfire 4 die withing a week and the replacement died a month later with only a weeks worth of vaping. I've had 10 out of 10 evods leak severely. I sticks that fail to fire every 10th draw.

Oh I could go on at even greater length but I won't. This market is flooded with crap that has a shiny paint job.

When you say "Die". What exactly happened to them?

 

[Elizabeth Baldwin]

I had an Evic die in 2 months. I didn't even use it that often. It was a backup. Decided I'd never buy that brand again.

The original eleaf was purchased from 101vape. The replacement was from eleafs US distributor. The eVic VT was purchased from Gearbest.

When you say "Die". What exactly happened to them?

Both eleafs started charging weirdly and then going dead which they would come back to life on the charger but incrementally dying faster and faster until they wouldn't charge at all. The last Eleaf got pretty dangerous as it started self firing my atty and burning the cotton. The only way to stop it was to grab a towel and twist the atty off as fast as possible.

The eVic VT just flat out stopped working period. Wouldn't take a charge or start-up.

Agreed. I'm never buying another battery device again. Only devices that require my own batteries.

I knew it wasn't just me. You can't have a 100% fail rate and no one else has any problems.

Sounds like you are having a Run of some Really Bad Mojo.

Racked Up any Bad Karma points Lately? Or have a Lot Lingering from the Past maybe?

 

[petrotech]

It's not just joyetech. As vaping gets bigger, and mass production goes up, a lot more slip through QA. Main reason I use mechs now.

It does suck that you got three in a row, are you sure you didn't walk over any ancient burial grounds recently?

Kinda seems like the electronics not the internal batteries. I buy under $50, if it lasts more than 3mths I got my moneys worth. If not I return it. I shop by warranties and CS.

Didn't Joye/Eleaf have a longer warranty claim time. Or was that only the full kit from their site or something?

Sorry to hear of your bad luck, OP. I've been buying Joye exclusively for a few yrs now, but have only Smoketech and Innokin problems.

 

[Vapin Dave]

Strange, both of mine have been working great for a long time.

They replaced mine the first go with their US distributor but refuse to replace another. I've learned a lesson. Only buy Box mods. Less circuitry.

Understood. I'd be doing same.

Consider a high quality mechanical mod. It should last a lifetime & save money & frustration.
