JOYETECH ERoll

[volume control]

Lets try this, I see a couple of concerns about the eRoll that many have made with blu.

Battery issues. Same as blu, the batteries. I am seeing a lot of problems related to the battery. The batteries die after just a few charges or are doa. Correct me if I am wrong here, but there is no way to charge the battery other than with the PCC? If that is true, what are you going to do when the pcc dies? For me part of not smoking analogs is that I have to always have something, or I will run out and buy a pack. The PCC is also going to wear out quicker with this setup.

attys. Just like the blu cartidges, some work , some don't. Is it a high percentage? Is just the people that bought knockoffs?

Leaks.It seems like quite a few people have issues with the eRoll leaking. To me that sounds a problem.


I have not tried them, guess that is why I was asking.

I got a bad battery, it was difficult to activate. I just bought another at 9 bucks, about the price of a single blu disposable right?

Im getting months from my atties, in fact still using originals i got with the kit in early November, havent had a bad atty yet. Did have one that was a little weaker from the pack, but i rewicked it and its working great now

Ive only seen one person complain of it leaking, and i believe they were messing with the atomizer and may have damaged it or damaged the unit and that was the cause. Otherwise from what ive seen people have been pretty impressed that these do not leak


I do not carry multiple PCCs or any of that. I have 1 ego 650 and 1 eroll kit. I tend to bring one or the other. If it were going to be a few days id just bring both, but i can live a day without a fix in the worst case. Id say always have a backup, but its up to you when you need to actually carry it out. Its also not like you cant just grab a disposable somewhere to last a bit worst case scenario

i been using SS mesh wick and a tiny piece of hemp wick on the coil between the mesh and the coil, works a treat and I just replace the tiny piece of hemp every once in a while when the performance starts dropping

Ordered extra flavoring for my juices, since flavor (lack thereof) is my biggest problem with this eroll - and looks like it's more to do with VG than the device. Dunno.... will see if that fixes it, if it ever gets here. (Disappeared in tracking, waiting to hear from USPS.)

As far as my problem with it not hitting/dragging well - changed tanks, doesn't do it as much. With either, i've found when it does do it, if i just knock it on something hard a few times it works fine. So, dunno what that indicates, but it works

I've tried the ss mesh (325) but found the flavor got a harsh, dirty/hot metallic unpleasant undertone that reminded me of the bad old days 20 years ago, the last time I used a superfine stainless mesh (screen) to control a liquid being vaporized under very high heat. That's a flavor I would have gladly never tasted again.

I get a nasty flavor if i dont oxidize

I heated with a bic until glowing red throughout then rinsed in water first.

Getting the same metallic taste. Generally starts after taking a long draw, and then it just doesn't ever go away.

Guess I'll stick with silica wicks for now.

I dont rinse in water, i just heat it and use it. You dont want it glowing super red, just lightly red. Also youre better off using NG if you have a stove since bic lighters do not burn that clean

 

[Pepo]

Where you have bought the mesh? It can be dirty. I boiled it at first. Some are also cleaned it with e.g toothbrush.

I don't have oxidized at all. Maybe I have no sense of taste but still not taste anything extra.

I thought i remembered slightly bigger Ego-C carts being made...am i wrong? If so...any links?

Maybe i should try boiling mine then, i got it from OKC

For the eroll? They wouldnt fit in the PCC and make the device a pain to charge i imagine if you modded it to fit a C cart somehow

 

[thejager]

agreed it woudl be hard to charge...still..if yer at home it might be nice also...i carry my PCC with an extra one installed in it...and carry another one in my shirt pocket (which coudl be the one with the bigger cart)

still the problem is evident, im just trying to eek out as much as i can

There are ego c tanks, type a and b, that are larger. But they wouldn't fit into the eRoll atomizer cone. So you would have to rig something up.

The small tanks are working for me, I just carry around a plastic needle tipped bottle. I haven't used any other device since the eRoll arrived.

I thought I read that the smaller version of the C tank (that uses an actual cone shape cone rather than a fat ego sized straight tube) used same cartridge interface and those cartridges fit the eRoll (not the PCC but the Atty/cone).

Yeah, they might. Worth a shot anyway. I only have b tanks laying around, as I never tried the ego c type a. But someone who has some should give it a shot. I just assumed it wouldn't fit because the eroll is so small, but I'm wrong all the time.

On another note, I AM having a bit of leaking today. But I'm using a new battery, cone, tank and juice. The cone seems a tad more loose than my others so I'll switch cones and see if that helps. It is very minimal leaking, just a little juice where the cone meets the battery.

Two things here i can help you with.

1. I use an ego C myself, i can tell you first hand they do not fit. I use the Ego C and Eroll so i can use the same atties with both devices. Pretty convenient imo

2. If youre getting a very tiny bit of juice, its likely leaking from the cone and air chamber in the tanks, my condensation comes out the cone area. Its pretty easy to tell, as i can fill the tank so full there is no room for air, then leave it for a bit on its side and theres a little bit of leakage. Check the tank, still full!

So you may want to wipe out your cone with a paper towel or whatever every now and then, and rinse the condensation from the tanks if its built up in there, and shake the water out. I can tell if mine needs a cleaning really bad i get more condensation leakage.

This is the first leak of any kind I've had with the eRoll so far. And the tank was definitely emptying some. Plus this was the first day I've used this battery, atty, cone and tank, so I don't think it was just build up. It started with the first tankful. However, I just refilled the tank with the same flavor but a different vendor. And no more leaking. I think this new juice I have is just a little too thin? I'm not sure. I normally use 50/50, and that's been working great for me in the eRoll. This one is a 65/35 pg/vg, with extra flavor too. Definitely the thinnest one I've tried yet. I know other people have used thinner juices without issue, so that may not be it. But switching juices seems to have solved it for now.

Ive heard of other people using thin juices without issue, my juices are all thick though so i have no experience. They are 70PG/30VG from WordupEcig.com. I know its a high PG but its definitely thick still.
