Cheap eroll atomizers

[unknown_shooter]

FYI - I ordered some from chinabuye :

Detachable No Cotton Wick Electronic Cigarette Atomizer with Replacement Atomizer Cores - Stainless Steel Color

received in-hand in the US 11 days after ordering (with the cheap shipping).. 5 for $6.30

FWIW, they offer just the atomizer for $1.30 each, which actually costs more than this "kit"..

I've only tested one so far, but it's working fine..

I saw another post referencing some cheap ones at fastech, but darned if I could find them..

I clicked on Customer Service at the bottom trying to find out about their location (some have CA) and was taken to a forum that looked just like ECF... kinda threw me.

Nice find. I bet these attys cost 10 cents to make and the $5 per atty that JT charges seems ridiculous

Interesting. Check back in a week or so and let us know what you think. I rebuild my old JT atties because of the relatively high cost of new ones but it's kind of a hassle and it's hard to get re-wicked ones to perform like new even after trying all kinds of tweaks and adjustments..

The fasttech ones were horrible. Paid less than $5 for a 5 pack, so I thought I'd give them a shot. Every hit tasted like a dry hit, even with my thinnest juice. Also they would fall apart if you even looked at them the wrong way. I hope these are better quality. I get a little tired of how much the Joyetech ones cost, and now I mostly use the eRoll at work and when I'm out. If they were a bit cheaper, I'd use it all the time.

And here they are at Fasttech, for what it's worth.

$4.34 EGO-C E-cigarette Atomizer Heads (5-Pack) 5-pack at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

I do not endorse these, just giving the link since the OP couldn't find them.

I can second this. The Fasttech knockoffs are terrible. They leak, don't wick well, and definitely fall apart in a VERY short amount of use. Even at that price, not worth it at all as they are all but unusable in my experience.

Any update? I'd like to get an order of atty's in pretty soon and would much rather spend $7 than $25 with shipping...

 

[patkin]

I would like to know too.

Sorry.. so far, I got one great one (the first one), I tried to swap out another in my second e-roll, and the next two atomizers really sucked - they were so awful and burnt-tasting that I took that e-roll out of comission... I didn't want to get that burnt stank in my mouth again, so I haven't tried the other two yet.. gonna try them out today..

The Chinabuye kit wasn't a total loss - the cone and adaptor they include can be used to do a dry-burn (with an ego-battery) on the e-roll atomizers to at least get the funk out of them & make them last a little longer..

I really hate paying $5 each for the joye atomizers, so I'm hoping I can at least re-wick these cheap ones & get something servicable..I've got more time than money right now..

Ok, just decided to do some "destructive testing" on the Chinabuye atomizers - There is one wick inside these, going through the coil, and up into the spike on the top piece..



clickable thumb so you can see it bigger.. :



These are just not the same as genuine joye atomizers - the coil is soldered to the top piece, there is no "packing" around the coil - it's a product made to look like a joye atomizer, but the internal differences make it so it can't function like the joye atomizer..

suck!

you can see how an ego-c atomizer is supposed to look here:

As the old saying goes...if its too good to be true...buy it and dissect it to be sure!
