I was very hyped on the release, finally recieved my kit. Ordered an advanced kit, simple kit and some cartridges.
First of all im very surprised how good the small unit works.
-The price is good for the set, cartridge cost about 2-2.5 € / ~2.5$ (because of the ceramic atomizer it should be cost efficient in comparison to replace atomizer alone on other devices), it could be more hygienic for lazy people like me to replace the whole cartridge.
-Replacments available
-Flavour production is great for the size.
-Flavour is not bad (in comparison to icare mini a bit weaker in my opinion but maybe it will get better after some days of use, 1 day so far).
-Battery should be enough to bring you trough day, battery of the cigarette seems to be good enough for longer series
-Very lightweight and small size, you can hold it in your mouth for minutes. I guess the size is actually the same like a real cig
-If you care with you 3 cartridges the amount of liquid holds some hours
-The pcc is great and the technic so far is working good. I like the led system and in my opinion its great they are visible while charging the cig. If the pcc lies in front of you you can see the battery of the pcc in realtime. For example if it goes down from 2 leds to 1.
-It doesnt get as hot like others does, but you shouldnt hold the cig where the hole is (you can burn your finger =))
-The charging system of the cig is developed really great (pcc to cig) and should work for years (not like the icare mini with pins or others)
-Auto draw system is the best seen so far (i really used a lot cigalikes atleast 8 different models and no one was working as consistent like the eroll mac so far, it fires instantly and holds consistent over the draw. Many other cigalikes where unusable because of a bad auto draw system over time)
-No burn taste, it looks like the liquid flow works great. On many other devices i need to screw off the top/cartridge to release the pressure or tap on it to repair the flow.
-Top filling is cool but not a big plus, i dont see much time saving on filling top or on bottom. Both you can screw off quickly.
-Pull out and in for cartridges is great, replace one is very easy and fast
Some cons:
-You will get liquid in your mouth. This is very annoying and it happens very often 1x each 5 puffs. This problem needs to be fixed because it makes the device unusable unluckily. I tried on all 3 cartridges. Im a bit disappointed, its the first device "cigalike" in the past years with this problem from a legend. Using 50/50 pg/vg.
-You cant carry a second simple cig with you in the pcc. I tried to put in the cig from simple kit into the place where usually the cartridges are. It would be nice to have a second cig so one could be charged while the second is in use. But Joyetech made the place a bit shorter to avoid that out of wichever reason. May they release a mega pcc, or the pull out system isnt working fine for that case. In my opinion its necessary to have a second battery because if you forget to put in the cig and its out of battery you cant get your draw if you need it.
Small cons:
-Its a bit hard to remove the top of the cartdrige, sometimes you need to use a paper ot the shirt to open it, even if you screw it on slightly (plastic is a bit slippery).
-Im not a fan of how you can get out the cig of the pcc. The old system from the first eroll i liked a lot more, but its not a big cons. There you could pull the knop and get out the cig with same hand. On the mac i recommend using both hands (else it may fall down) and it takes a bit longer.
-May the top fill plastic had could be a bit smaller to increase the amount of liquid.
-Because of the thin pcc may its hard to open the magnetic mechanism, i recommend to hold the pcc on top and bottom with the right hand while using the left hand to open the cover on right side.
Overall its one of the best cigalikes if Joyetech is gona release some new cartridges to fix the problems mentioned its a must have for cigalike lover like me.
