The Elips lasts a lot longer than the eRoll between charges, and the PCC is convenient to carry, its about the size and shape of a small stick deodorant. At its best, fully charged with a full tank and a clean atomizer, its a very satisfying warm vape, not airy at all like the eCab was ...

The Type A atomizers can be dry burned and re-wicked with stainless steel, lots of good directions for this on the eRoll forum, and the genuine Joytech attys can last for over a year. The battery is good for about a year of daily use, and works as a pass-thru while charging ...
