Having just gotten the NPro from njoy several days ago, I didn't want to try and post a review with the big boys but I did want to post for alot of us new e-smokers considering njoy. I ordered NJoy because it seemed like a nice kit for someone who just picked up vaping. The long warranty on the device itself is also appealing when reading about device failures from other sources. That being said the NPro is working fine- for the most part.
Customer Service: Good!
I ordered 2 NPro's (one for my partner and one for myself) along with 3 10 packs of Medium carts. The shipment itself took longer than expected even though we ordered it 2 Day shipping- ended getting it 3 days late. Customer service was very accommodating and refunded us our shipping due to a warehouse issue they had. Easy to reach by phone, difficult to reach by email seems like.
Packaging: Excellent!
Well, I'm gay so I have to review the presentation. Clean packaging, cute design, and environmentally sound. Small boxes packed with everything, well laid out. No waste in packaging, everything was fit nicely inside.
Initial Vape: Good!
(Of course everyone says , charge your batteries for X amount of time before using. Well, I had not had an analog all day waiting for the NPro to arrive so.. yea I just fired up with the attached battery and charged the spare.)
I was really surprised by the smell and vapor production (was starting with a medium nic cart- regular flavor). I'd seen reviews before but it's a different thing when you are the one using the product. Vapor was very good! Taste was oddly carmel and smell was a bit sweet. I don't believe anyone around me could smell it - it was more of an internal taste / smell due to the vape. Not offensive AT ALL just takes a few hours to get used to. One thing I noticed immediately was that the nic in the cart was probably too low for what I was used to. I vaped through the initial cart quickly and with little nicotine satisfaction.
I decided to try one of the high nic carts after I'd blown through one of the mediums (all of these I'm mentioning came with the starter kit). Immediate difference and an audible AHhhhhh as I took the first drag. So I guess I'm more of a heavy smoker than I imagined (denial isn't just a river in Egypt). Thank God we accidentally ordered 3 boxes of HIGH carts with our order.
2 Days Later
So when I initially ordered this product (after reading TONS on this forum) I had already decided I was going to completely dump analogs as soon as I got the product. My partner agreed (after yelling at me that I was spending too much time talking/reading about e-cigs and to just buy one already!) and when the NPro arrived I had no analogs left which was planned. After 2 days I'm still analog free and really enjoying vaping. It takes some time to get used to and I find that I am vaping a few puffs every 15 minutes or so- when I can. This is far from the habit I had before with analogs, while I'm vaping a tad more frequently I'm only taking a few drags, rather than smoking a whole analog once every 15-30 minutes.
NPro Hardware Performance
The NPro is performing well. I'm noticing (actually on both Npro's) one of the two batteries is staying on for the full 5 seconds even if I've stopped vaping and eventually goes off (5 second auto-shutoff) and sometimes turning back on without any warning right after vaping. By reading these boards I've got alot of the tricks to correct common issues (blowing in the opposite end of the battery to unstick switches, blowing out atomizers to clean them and sometimes blowing into the cart just a smidge to unstick switches that won't operate). With these tricks at hand I've been able to handle any issues that have come up, but the sticking batteries are a bit of a concern as we don't want to burn out our atomizers (NJoy only ships one and they don't sell extras- only warranty replacements).
Battery life has been pretty good averaging 4-6 hours per charge!
Cartridges
The starter cartridges are fine, nothing special but they work. We also ordered 3 10 packs of the regular flavor (tobacco) high nic carts (we actually ordered medium but thank God they sent High). The flavor is fine, not fantastic but fine. Hint of carmel and nothing special on the after taste. Fresh carts give AMAZING amounts of vapor. Cart life has been quite a bit under their 3/4 pack rating. Both of us used to share 3 packs of smokes a day or less (I did most of the smoking I think) and both of us are finding ourselves going through 3-4 carts a day.
Helpful Hint: If you are going to buy carts, do NOT buy them from Njoy after your initial order. They are way too expensive ($20.00 for 10 carts). You can find PeeWee carts or 4081 carts available for half that price on puresmoker.com and elsewhere. Also considering ordering some e-juice/nic juice/smoke juice/whatever juice and filling your own carts. Bit of a hassle but this is where the cost savings vs analogs come in.
Wrap Up
All in all I'm very happy with our purchase and am really enjoying vaping. Every once and a while I reach for that imaginary analog cigarette out of habit. Hell, we're still vaping downstairs (old habit- we wouldn't smoke upstairs in the house). It takes some getting used to but I really never see myself going back to regular cigarettes. I was with a friend who smokes and the smell was just horrible!
Since both of us are enjoying vaping so much I have also ordered a Janty Dura-C from JantyUsa.com and a Classic Penstyle from puresmoker.com to try out. I hear the vapor production on the pen styles as well as the cart life is much better than the mini's / super minis (duh it's a bigger cart!). Originally my partner was concerned with the look of the e-cig, but now I think we are both about the performance.
Please feel free to ask me any additional questions and sorry for rambling. We're both just really excited and trying to get all of our friends who still smoke to vape instead!
