Ok, here's a query. I don't have a needle set-up, so when I try refilling the used cartridges, from the 'tip-end' by removing it, the juice do not drip into the bottom chamber and stays on at the mouthpiece end.

I blowed it - but then it went thru & thru! I could refill a new cartridge - but unable to do so in the used ones. What wrong am I doing?

Try and refill it without taking the top off. If you drop the juice on the edge of the little hole, it will usually fill up pretty easily. You can also try just flicking the tank to make the juice slide down. Check out the eRoll thread though, because there have been several tips about the best way to fill them. I use needle tip bottles for a few of my favorite juices, but for the rest I just drip into the little hole, aiming the drop to the side.

And I may be confused, but your post makes it seem like you may be trying to fill it from the mouthpiece end. You actually fill it where the tank meets the atomizer.

Yes, that's what I'm doing. It's the way the guy at the retail did in front of me. Took off the end-cap of the mouthpiece end > dripped few drops from a 'normal' juice bottle (without any needle tip device) > the juice gradually trickled down towards the bottom chamber (which sits on the atomizer plunger). And that was good.

I did it too once again when home, to a new tank-cartridge. But am unable to replicate it again on a used cartridge. Probably that 'used' cartridge is clogged due to use. I'd try washing it and repeat the process.

BTW, if we fill the juice from the bottom end -- we would require a needle set-up, if not a syringe - then thru a blunt needle type of refill bottle (which I didn't purchase, as I saw the salesguy do it successfully without).

You can't fill it from the mouthpiece end. It's impossible for the juice to get in the right place that way. You may have been confused at the store. At the top, the part with the little hole that fits the atomizer spike, that is where you fill it. You can fill it with a needle top bottle, you can fill it with a regular bottle by dripping just at the edge of that tiny hole. You can also pop off the top and fill that way. Yes, the little plastic piece with the hole also comes off. Both ends can come off, but you cannot fill it from the mouthpiece end.

I just got my Eroll today from Canvape. I'm kinda of impressed. Sure it's not the same as a twist with a nova tank, but it's very small and stealth. The vapor production is quite impressive for such a small battery. The flavor is a bit muted, so I'm using some juices that I have that I found that were too strong. This will be great when I go out to a wedding or a funeral or any place that is a bit more formal. Don't get me wrong, I love my Evic, but that thing is like a light saber. I think these Erolls would be excellent for people just switching from analogs as it feels quite a bit like a cigarette with a very comparable size. You can have one of these dangling from your lips they're that light, try that with your twist. The other great feature is that it comes with a PCC (personal charging case) so you can charge it up when not in use. The only complaint I really have with it (and it's not a biggy) is the tank is not very large, so if you wish to do allot of vaping then you''ll have to travel with juice, I usually have extra juice when I go out anyways. All in all, I think it's a good add on to my vaping gear collection.

I received another order from Canvape today. This time I received the Joyetech Ecab. I must say that it is a classy looking unit. Works extremely well. I decided to get this in addition to the Eroll. I found that with the Eroll, when I showed it to smokers, they were more apt to want to touch it and try it than the regular gear (twist and nova tank) that I carry around. These are great selling tools to get smokers to kick the habit of tobacco and convert to vaping. I must point out that I have no commercial interest in this, I just want to see more people giving up cigarettes. So today I going to work with my regular gear, Eroll and now Ecab. I almost feel like a JW trying to convert the world one smoker at a time. I decide to purchase these products after reading a post where members stated that they carried around extra gear for other people to try, I thought that was a great idea. I'm saving so much cash not smoking that I don't mind the investment. So at this point, I believe with the Eroll and Ecab in hand, I will be helping many more smokers to join the ranks of vapors, or at least make them think long and hard about it.
