What is the consensus? What has been the best and easiest option (No modification) for replacement coils (Other then stock eGrip coils)?
If you want NO modification at all, then I think the eleaf GS Air coils are your best option. You can just put them in because they are so close to the design of the egrip coils. If you don't mind changing a pin, the Aspire bvc coils are good, but your device won't sit flat anymore.

For the V1 eGrip, this is the only no modification, no recoiling solution. For the V2 eGrip (OLED), the CL OLED with CLR coils are the best solution (note: just because the CLR are rebuildable doesn't mean they have to be, they are cheap enough to be just a replaceable solution).

I recieved my first eGrip today with the RBA and so far I'm loving it. I built a new coil and wicked it with rayon - no leaking so far. I vape unflavored and there is a slight plastic taste. I believe the taste is coming from the finish. I had the same problem using a Vaporshark rDNA with a bottom airflow atty and the finish/coating is similar to the black eGrip.

Finally Joyetech USA is selling the eGrip CL base, YAY!!! eGrip CL Base I have to say I'm loving mine. Much easier to wick, no leaks and taste is great. A little less vapor and a tighter draw, but IMO it's better than the RBA especially with no leaks :D
Does anyone know how low a coil you can have in the original egrip? Can I use the 1.0 ohm coils in it.

I posted the videos here. Note that these are GS Air coils which are almost identical to the eGrip coils. I wouldn't try rebuilding with 2 coils, all the ones I've done I've made them a single coil. I also replaced the outer wicking material with coffee filter paper cut 1" x 1/4", wet with eliquid and then placed inside the top cap.

I got the new one, have yet to try and do new wick, we shall see!

It looks like my original egrip has some kind of short in it. When I try to vape it the light on the switch just does fast blinking. When I try a recharge the light just keeps blinking so I'm not even sure if it's charging.

Does anyone have any ideas? Can I even send it in to Joyetech?

I love my egrips and have bought two of the oleds which I rotate. I've found that with using the gs-air coils I get the most consistent vape over any other device I've used in the past.

That usually means that the atomizer is too low. Try changing your coil

Well i bought the egrip not knowing there was a CL and CS version,i got the CS.The CS coils are rubbish I'm getting little flavor from them so i bought the RBA, much better flavor but to much airflow for a nice tight mouth to lung.

So now i have to buy the CL base, the CLR coils sound great but i don't know where to get the silicone caps for the coils.Do you get the silicone caps with the CL base or coils?
