Hello, everyone,
I do apologize for my English, it is bad.
I am using Janty ego for about 2 years from now. And yes, it has some flaws - for example, i do not understand
options of ohm of washable janty egoX. Less is better or worse or what? Why do they require much more cleaning than average LR atomizers, and such. Anyway, the thing is, I've got a really interesting proposal from company that imports stuff from HongKong for really cheap prices, to buy electronic cigarettes. I bet all you have these companies in your country, and it's the same source of stuff. Full set of ego-t cigarette, exact box as janty one, same box, same cigs for only 40$ in your currency. Thats cheap, as normal ego jets for me was ~70$ with shipping.
I bought it, and upon delivery i was happy because everything is the same, same atomizers, same batteries, same charger and even pouch. But then i got so disappointed that i wanted to share, so no one makes same mistake.
First i noticed that everything really looks exactly the same. But the batteries are 1300Am, suggesting they hold charge for longer. I'm really happy with that.
1. Battery button is really wiggly, its obviously lower quality product.
2. 1300 battery holds charge for one day, same as my original Janty 600 batteries.
3. Battery glows, but atomizer does not vapor, there is some disconnection, wich can be fixed by tapping battery against the table quite hard. Ok, it can be just manufacturing fault, such happens.
4. Battery glows blue, which is ok, but it keep on blinking when it's empty and does not pass current to atomizer. I have never reached tha state, when battery is empty enough that it could not blink, even by pressing button for hours. Meaning it is not really 100% empty. This way it corrupts the charge measurements as in built detector really do not know when battery is really empty (that is why your laptop or phone battery is better charged when device is not turning on at all).
5. Atomizers are not LR, which is ok, but not so cool.
6. In Janty atomizer there is wick fibres going through coil and also there is wick covered with metal mesh that is inserted in spike - everyone i address this, knows what i mean. So in this china product, wick going through coil is just bent upwards through the spike. Its just one single stack of fibre, meaning no wick is touching coil directly from tank, and in case you remove spike for atty cleaning, there is no possibility you would be able to get wick back into spike. I just cut the fibres and put my own meshed wick in spike, and it works.
So for less money, you get less. My last purchase from China. It really looks like same stuff, but it is not.
This is no advertising, i do not sell Janty or anything. Just wanted to warn, in case someone takes china as an option.
