New Joyetech 20watt eGrip

[SmokinRabbit]

Got mine yesterday -- today was first full day out with it. Filled it at 8:30am and didn't run out of juice until 6:30pm. Battery still going too. Not sure how much longer it will go, but color me impressed. I wouldn't say I'm a light vapor either.

So far I really like the eGrip. My only complaint at this point is it's a little hard to tell what you've set it at.

I think it provides a great vape too. I may even like it more than the istick.

My istick and Nautilus Mini should be here tomorrow, it will be interesting to see how it compares to the e Grip.

Get a wide bore drip tip , it's alot better than the stock tip. But not like the silo. I'd compare it to the nautilus.

I added a bigger bore drip tip to mine and find that it has similar airflow as my Protank 2 with aero base. I also watched a review on YouTube where the reviewer took the air adjustment screw out for even more airflow.

Thank you both. Between a different drip tip (dislike metal ones anyhow) and taking the screw out completely (never thought of that) makes it more likely to be close to what I like.

I got mine today. I had to turn it on, 5 ckicks, but I can't get it to power off. 5 clicks doesn't do anything. The book says the button light should flash...
Anyone else have this issue?

Does anyone know what kind of material the black one is?

It's just a matte black finish. Paint, like their erolls and itaste, maybe a little more matte.
Someone mentioned a wrap for these, but I can't see that with the curved windows, door, hinge, light, recessed logo...

I did finally get mine to turn off. Switch seems like the weakest link.
I am surprised that the dial doesn't have a stop. Nice that it locks but I assumed it would have a stop between low and high.

Does anyone have the black one and like it or prefer wood over the black?

Mine blinks while charging, then goes off when the charge is completed.. Also, to turn the device off, the power button must be activated with the VW indicator on.. Then 5 clicks to off..

EDIT: I find 5 not-so-fast button presses to work better than 5 fast button presses when turning the eGrip on / off..

you are right, After a few tries following your guidance I got the unit to turn off and back on again. Now how do I solve the leaking problem. Get that one fixed and I'm good to go.

I got the black one and preferred it over the wood and camo that my local store had in stock at the time.

Just picked up a black one. Been using it for 2 hours and this thing puts out wonderful flavor !

Agree. My poor iStick sits idle in jealousy.
I'm going to buy a second one soon I think.

Anyone know how it wicks with higher % VG juice?

I got mine at noon yesterday. I didn't touch my istick, or an eroll until the battery died around 9PM. All this thing needs is a shirt pocket!
I would like to try a higher ohm coil on it though. I'm going through more juice with it. Will have to wait and see...

Would also like to try a higher ohm coil. Can not turn it up pa the lowest setting or I get a burnt tast after a quick 2 or 3 puffs. Maybe a 1.8 or even a 2.0.

Ya I tried 20 watts and it was just burnt taste. Running around 10 gives me good flavor though. No burnt taste at all

I got my eGrip about a week ago and loving it. No problems with it at all. If you like a iStick with a mini Nautilus tank or ProTank, you're going to love this device. The biggest pro above the iStick to me is the all-in-one design, although the biggest drawback obviously is not being able to switch out tanks. So for me, my favorite juice goes in the eGrip, my other juices go on tanks that fit the iStick.

One thing that I think they should change that I don't believe has been mentioned yet is the refill holes I would like to see the holes bigger, as my juice comes in one of those bottles with the droppers. Those droppers are too big, so that requires me to unscrew bottom of eGrip to fill it up each time. Also, I would recommend taking the screw out completely for the best airflow.

In addition, I just tried the nautilus mini tip in the eGrip and I love the draw even than the tip that comes with it. The only problem is that I like the length of the original tip, because the shorter one makes it feel like you're sucking on the battery. Do they have something out there that has the wider mouth like the nautilus but the length of the tip of the eGrip?

Why does the little light blink a few times sometimes after taking a rip off it?

Ya gotta read the book rip.

On the left was the 1st one I rec'd but the usb port is loose. That one has #'s on it.
On the right is the replacement I rec'd today- only # on it is 20 with dots that get bigger as you move up to 20.

Also, the 'black'.....the one on the left is dark than the other. The replacement looks like it can from the reject bin. Even the 'VW' lower & off-centered.

After watching some reviews, I really want one of these. How do you clean out old juice in there? Can you open it to rinse it out with water or is the previous flavor going to be stuck in there forever?
