JOYETECH ERoll

[tomcampo]

Its heeeeeeeeerre!

And can anyone tell me (because its so hard to understand how the tank is designed due to the opaqueness factor) can I fill it using the needletip from the inhaling end? Seems that would save wear and tear of pulling the tank off to refill all the time.

I was a bit confused by this at first as well. Fortunately, I have a good relationship with my local B&M shop, and the cashier showed me how to remove the cap from the tank. If you take the tank out of the eRoll, notice that the cap can be pulled off relatively easily. The caps look like this:

That's the way I fill mine.

In fact, I generally fill up 5 each night and carry them in a small Altoids can. Then, at the end of the day, I take the empty tanks out, remove the caps and wash them out. I leave them soaking in water over night and then leave them to dry on a towel for a day. Then I refill them before I put the cap back on and then fill up my Altoids can with full tanks in the morning. I have about 15 tanks in my rotation so that I always have about 5 drying, about five soaking, and five with me in the Altoids can - and one in my eRoll.

I got the Altoids idea on another ECF thread. Here's what it looks like:

Thanks guys for the tips. I figured filling from the inhale end was impossible, its just hard to tell how these are actually put together, and until my extra tanks arrive I don't want to tinker or dissect any of the 3 I have.

I was looking around and Litecig actually sells extra end caps 10 for $1.95, so will probably add those to my supplies.

If you try to replace the caps, there's a little o-ring that always goes in wrong, the replacement caps are cheap and if you use a needle nose bottle (or bottle cap, available separately) they last for ages.

Thank you for the heads up on that! My only question there is, won't repeatedly pulling the tank off and popping it back on the atomizer wear the original cap opening out and cause leaks? Since the capacity is so small I see a lot of tank changes in my future. That was my concern and reason I thought spare caps would be good. Again, this is my first atomizer/tank setup, so I'm still testing the waters.

Hi Amy87. Yes, it will enlarge the hole over time. But, removing and reattaching caps will wear those out also... on the side clips/tabs. There's just no way around the "wear and tear" factor. I guess its a decision on either the fiddle factor taking caps off or price of 10 caps up against that of 5 tanks. Truthfully, I milk everything past its usage date. ;-) and the tanks only seep a bit when in my case... never while actually vaping. So I just wipe em down quickly with kleenex when taking one from my case.... oh, I don't carry a PCC with me so no leakage into it. (now, telling on myself, some of those have probably been pulled off and refilled with a needle nose bottle upwards of 50-to-75 times.. just so you have an idea.)

On needle nose bottles, I pretty much only use Dekang tobacco flavor juices in my Eroll (I think most of their flavors do though) and they come in the needle nose bottles. I also use Mountain Vapor juices in my other setups and their 5 up through 30 ml sizes are needle nose too. (Note: Dekang tastes of burnt celery in bigger setups for some reason... never taste of that when in the Eroll... nice savings on juice) Anyway, so I've built a collection of empty needle nose bottles in various sizes. Somewhere on this sub-forum someone told where they get empties like them but I don't recall. Maybe a search for needle nose bottles would bring it up.

Amy, I fill mine with a needle bottle. I'm think I'm still on my original tanks for almost a year. The biggest problem I have is swapping tanks on different erolls. A tank will fit tight on one and loose on another, so I try to keep them together.
I don't know how people can see the liquid in the dark tanks either. I only use the clear tanks and even those are hard for me to see in dim light.

Litecig has the NN bottles for .95, and I know I've seen them at other vendors, just can't remember where right now. I was happy to read how many times you re-use the tanks, I'm a use-it-till-it-falls-apart type too, so I was hoping they last awhile.
Took the eroll to work today, but it wasn't very convenient due to all the tank refilling, but keep in mind I only have the 3 that came with the kit, and one of those I left at home because it had the juice I only vape with my morning coffee. So...I think until my spare tanks arrive I'll just keep using my 808's at work.

I'm also trying to learn to puff & inhale differently. My clearos are great but it takes quite a drag to get the hit I want, when I drag like that on the eroll I get a coughing fit from the TH, LOL. So I am trying to pace myself and learn to take shorter, less powerful draws.

It is hard to see a fluid level in the tanks, even the clear ones. And if they're full, the line would be up inide the sleeve anyway ...

I started filling them a little less, so I can see a bubble as I tilt the unit, like a carpenter's level. If there's a bubble, you got juice ...

NO, Mine have a tiny bubble, my eyes just don't see well in dim light.

Stamps.com, "Notice Left", My ...! You just didn't deliver it. Don't pretend that you tried.
I wasn't expecting it due to the ice storm, but why do they say they left a notice when the PO didn't even get here.

 

[patkin]

Mine don't either. I keep one of those tiny intense, white light, key chain flash lights where I sit to back light the tanks. I point it toward the ceiling so it doesn't blind me and hold the tank in front of it. Any small flash light you can hold in the same hand as the tank, so your other is free to fill with, will do though. Just be sure it has a "constant on" switch as depressing a button while holding the tank would be hard. Works for me.

USPS has really been wonky lately with their computer reporting. Two packages delivered this week for instance took two days to go 80 miles? I don't think so. I think they have more people doing to computer work than usual who are overly zealous... maybe extra staff for the holidays. I hope that's the case with yours and the Notice shows up.

 

[four2109]

It came today. We had 6" of snow on top of a solid layer of ice, so I wasn't surprised. I guess their system doesn't allow for "It went out but we didn't deliver it", and won't allow it to stay in "Out for delivery" status. It's just confusing when they say a notice was left when it wasn't. I'm good now.

Patkin, Back when I was using the old minis(401's, 901's) and fiddling with carts all the time, I rigged an led light and a button cell battery on to my 3ml bottle so I could see into the cart when filling. It worked really well, but I don't want to go back to that.

Wouldn't it be nice if they put the LED at the tank end to illuminate the fluid level, instead of at the other end, where it eats battery power and performs no useful function ...

Agreed. I have been lobbying on other threads for an eRoll battery with no LED, or at least an LED that does not light up unless charging. I am tired of getting looks when vaping at night as I walk, bike, or drive around town.

my lonely eRoll has a girlfriend coming up from Florida ... I'll post a pic when she arrives

 

[tomcampo]

Has anyone ever tried vaping with the mouth-cap off the tank? I was walking home tonight, and I dropped the eRoll. The mouth-cap popped off the tank and I couldn't find it. But the vape is much better without it. Not only is the flavor fuller, but I like being able to squeeze the tip just a bit, almost like a cigarette.

Should I pull the mouth-caps off the rest of my tanks?

 

[dragonbone]

What's a mouth cap?

 

[tomcampo]

Ha. I guess the word does sound funny, but I am not sure what else to call it. The eRoll tanks have a cap on both sides. One is the opening where you fill up the tank. The other cap is on the mouth side. Some people remove both caps for cleaning.

Here's a picture of an eRoll tank with the mouth-end cap removed:
