JOYETECH ERoll

[rico942]

I keep Q-Tips in my vaping tackle box, to swab any condensation and juice from inside the sleeve when replacing a tank. And a roll of toilet paper for wiping the tank before inserting it. A baby wipe is handy for cleaning your fingers to avoid getting juice on the outside surfaces ...

Been using 10ml needle tip bottles that I originally bought for injecting Ego clearomizers. Filling them from the vendor bottles is another chore, but it helps me to track my juice usage, and they're easier to control than a syringe for fillling the tiny eRoll tanks ...

I have a covered plastic tub, like a sour cream container, with 91% isopropyl alcohol, where I soak any atomizers that start to taste burnt. Most of the time it clears away the gunk, but I have a few that are stubborn. Will have to open them up and try to scrub the coil. Or it may be that the wick is clogged ...

I've yet to start opening up the atomizers for maintenance, just tried it on one so far and managed to break the coil, they're very delicate. A pair of needle-nose pliers works for extracting the cap and for pressing it back into place. Of my original set of 12 atomizers, all but two are still in rotation after 3 months of daily usage ...

There's a detailed thread here about atomizer maintenance, including re-wicking, and at $4 each, they're worth a little effort to extend their life ...

My only frustration with the eRoll so far has been losing one in a bar. It lives up to its name, the little devil rolled away and I never did find it !

I have several of these. 10ML Empty Bottle - Needle Dropper - $1.00 : Rocky Mountain Vapor, The Mountain top of Electronic Cigarettes

They also have the bigger ones. http://www.rockymountainvapor.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2_66&products_id=175

I did the same thing when I first started cleaning them. Usually the burnt taste is from the flavor wick laying on the coil thus burning. Be sure to soak well in alcohol to loosen it before removing the spike or it will bring the coil right along with it. So far I haven't been successful replacing flavor wicks and am leaving that to some rainy day measure. Others here have though. Now I just control their longevity with the type of juice I use and regular soaking/cleaning. I have to disagree with another poster saying they're never the same as new after cleaning. I think they are.

Same here, when enough of them pile up, I'll get ambitious and start pulling them apart and attempt to clean and re-wick ...

I put a brand new LR atomizer in one eRoll, and one soaked in alcohol after burning in another. Vaped the same juice (Arctic Wolf) in both and couldn't tell the difference. I'm sure they wear out eventually, but I'm not buying any more until they do ...

So I have now read every single post in this thread. There went a week of my life.

It was fun though. Loving the eRoll.

 

[rico942]

Loving the eRoll.

Same here ...

I don't really think of it as a cigalike. The eRoll is just the most compact rechargeable tank PV available, that I know of, and hopefully represents the future of vaping. We compensate for its current weaknesses with a PCC and multiple tanks, and probably with stronger juice for most users ...

When battery and atomizer development advances, as it always does, hopefully we'll see mini PVs that can match the performance of the present day mods. Look at early computer chips, compared to what we have now ...

There is another interesting parallel there. Mini PVs with greater power eventually will begin to suffer from problems with heat rejection, as the surface area is reduced ...

Ergonomically, anything smaller than the eRoll would be difficult to handle. But a PV that can be concealed in the hand and delivers all day performance and satisfaction is on my wish list ...

 

[Johnnie Price]

Maybe I have big hands, but I can comfortably hide the eRoll in my hand with no problem.

Though I would love to see an NJoy King or Fling Mini in a rechargeable form. A rechargeable, refillable, cigarette-feeling and -sized device that doesn't need to be disassembled to charge is on my wish list. The Colibri Nano comes close to that, but it uses 510 cartomizers. If they redesigned that with a tank and atty system similar to the eRoll I think they could corner the market.

I'm a woman, so naturally with smaller hands than probably 98%-99% of men, though my hands are rather large for a woman's (long fingers)... but I agree with you, it's as easy to conceal in the hand as a normal-sized (not 100 or 120) cigarette -- and no fire to burn you, if you get fumbly.

A rechargeable, refillable, cigarette-feeling and -sized device that doesn't need to be disassembled to charge is on my wish list.

Ummm... isn't that the eRoll?

Has anyone tried that new one JoyeTech has, the eCom? I saw it on their site the other day, and I kinda like it... it appears to be still pretty slender, but a bit longer than an eRoll.

No. Check out the NJoy King some time, if you haven't already. It not only looks like a cigarette, but it's the same size as one and has a soft filter so it feels like one as well.

I want that with a refillable tank and rechargeable. Probably not going to happen, unfortunately.

I'm a big guy at 6'5" and I have large hands.
But the eRoll still does not have that cigarette-feel to me.

I like the NJoy King and the White Cloud Mini Fling.
Those feel like cigarettes.

Having tried all of them, I don't use any of the above products at this time, but I would if I could.
The Mini Flings were the best in all aspects, except for the fact that the quality seems to be hit-and-miss at this point.

If there is one thing I won't tolerate from an electronic cigarette it is inconsistency.
I need to know how long it will last, and that it will taste like what I am expecting it to taste like.

That is why I drip with a standard 510 atomizer on an Ego Twist.

 

[Johnnie Price]

The eCom does look cool, but it's eGo sized. I already have an iSmoka and an Echo for those needs and they take a back seat to the eRoll. Plus I am not interested in VV/VW.

 

[Johnnie Price]

DC2, do you no longer use the eRoll?

No, I don't.

It turns out that carrying around the eRoll PCC is no better for me than carrying my 650mah Ego Twist with a 510 atomizer and drip tip.
--I either have to carry a little container of pre-filled tanks for the eRoll, or...
--I have to carry around a small bottle or two to drip with...

I still have my eRoll, but I have come to doubt that I will ever use it again.
I may have to Pay-It-Forward at some point.

 

[Johnnie Price]

I understand. The eRoll isn't for everyone. But what PV is?

 

[DC2]

What is.... the Provari?

 

[patkin]

indubitably inevitable

 

[Johnnie Price]

Ha! That's actually one of the few manuals I've considered purchasing, but only so I could say I had it. It would never get any use.

Yeah, I've had one of those, but in the "light" (gold) version. It was absolutely the best of the disposables I tried (also Fin and Blu, bleah), but I thought it tasted like eucalyptus. Definitely a coolish feeling in my sinuses; not menthol, but... hall's cough drop. But the throat hit was marvelous.

I bought one, quite a bit bigger than the eRoll, about the same size as an ego, similar vape to the eRoll, nice for the sort of situation where you might of chain smoked a few stinkies. I wouldn't give up my eRoll of an eCom but its a nice change.

The light version is 36 mg, same strwngth I vape all day.
