Now that I got it working I can give a moderatlly decent review on it.

Lets get started...
Everything seemed fairly simple to put together, except for the confusion with the atomizer, but after I got that set in, I've taken like 10 drags off it and man!
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful clouds of vapor. Its a much nicer thinker smoke than my 510.
The Throat hit on it is a little weak, but thats because I'm used to my 510, and that thing really packs a wallop. Having a little less of a throat hit isn't always bad though, it feels as if I'm smoking a hookah.
I'm still getting a decent amount of flavor out of the JS V2. About just as much as my 510 I would say. I know some people said that tehy lost some flavor, but so far it seems excellent.
I also don't get that plastic taste like some people were saying.
Its also Drip ready, which seems to work really well, better than my 510 I would almost say.
I was also reallly suprised with the size.
The pictures are really misleading haha. I thought it was gonna be, well... bigger than it was. Its about 4mm I would say smaller than my 510!
I like the portability of it, and the ability to smoke at my computer desk now, while it is charging!
Overall, so far I'm impressed.
Shipping was also very fast 2 days!
I take back what I said early, I was just frusterated and I thought I got sent a bad atomizer or something.
I've been eagerly waiting for this thing for like 2 weeks now haha.
I'll update this again later with more input, and I will probably do a much more in depth video review of both my 510 and the Janty Stick V2, since I should be finally receiving my web cam today!

Glad you like it. I've had an automatic for a week or so that I bought from someone on the forum and it is so-so. Based on that, I didn't know quite what to expect out of the V2, but I can say now after an hour or two with it that I am impressed. It's small, easy to use, and makes great vapor.

I can't compare it to a 510, because I don't have one. To me, throat hit/vapor seems a bit lighter than the USB mods I've made but a hell of a lot better than standard 801. It's not quite as hard hitting as the manual USB mod I got from ruyan, but it's a hell of a lot more versitile.

I found that the throat hit increased after a few days . . . I think my atomizer just needed a bit of time to really kick in. With my current atomizer (Janty, about 1 week), it kicks like a freakin' mule.

A hint Ludo shared early on . . . I slowly inhale, and when the light starts to turn red, I let go of the button, then quickly depress for another second or two. Holy cow, that is STRONG!!!!

Got mine today too! Been vaping like mad, breaking in the atty. Whew, I'm light headed now. LOL Ok, how's it stack up.. I rather not say until I use it for a week. But I'm really happy with it so far. Fits a nice niche in my stash. Janty Minifogger, 510's, 901's, Adaptever, 4075*blah.

Thanks guys,
D

Indeed.
I'm gonna give a first initial impression video review, then like a week or month later review.
I also gotta make one on my "Buzz Tube" which is basically a steamroller mod for my 510, and I gotta do a review on my 510.
I've just been awaiting my darn webcam.
My friends wanna be in it too, so I have no idea how its all gonna work.
So later tonight, critique the heck out of them for me, I wanna give a really in depth review while keeping it simple and easy to understand with good rating scales.

Wow.... I really don't know what I did. Gary J, I tried turning it more, and it didn't work, so I started to take it out adn un srew adn I accidentally hit the button and it hissed at me!
I knew then that the atomizer was working. Took a hit and got beautiful clouds of vapor.
Very impressed now, just took about an hour of tinkering and freaking out haha.
Thanks for the help everyone!

the exact same thing happend to me when I got my Janty Stick V1. It was my first e-cig and it wasn't working. I was so bummed, finally I gave it just a little nudge tighter with some pliers and it stared working. hasn't needed to be tightend like that since, just screw it in by hand now.

Yup yup, from my understanding it just needs a little breaking in, cus now I can screw it in and unscrew it by hand, and it works like a CHAMP! :thumb:

I'll tell you one thing. Some Pina Colada DIY I made awhile back didn't taste or work worth a damn in a regular 901 or 801, but in the new Janty stick it works great. Makes me want to sing that song.

Lol.
"I'm walking on sunshine woahhhhh!"
sorry, this was the first song that came into my head for some reason.:D

i got mine today too! this thing is so awesome.

main pros:
diminutive size
convenience of charging and passthroughing at the same time

main cons:
screw-in battery cap is easily lost (i hope to god i never lose it)
vapor not quite as great as i was hoping.

props to janty for such quick shipping. if this thing doesn't break, you've got a loyal customer in me
 
I also received mine today and being the dumb blonde I am, I put the atomizer in upside down!!!! It was really stuck and I didn't want to use pliers (not that I had any that thin) so I took it to Home Depot and used a screw to screw into it and pull it out! Its working fine. My only problem with it is the directions....not to clear or maybe not too clear for a blonde. Does anybody know how long it takes to charge the battery and how many times you can do that????Directions didn't say. Kudos to Janty for shipping so fast and their technical help for dumb blondes!!!:

Does anyone know what it means when the led flashed twice red when u push in the atomizer???

Hm... I really dunno, mine never did that.
It flashed red like 3 times when I put the battery in, but that just means you put it in right.
Never heard or read anything about it flashing when you put the atomizer in.
If it happens or I find anything, I'll let you know.
