Nope. I purchased directly and they never shipped it, ignored my emails, never responded to a dispute and then PayPal refunded my money. Refuse to try now!

That is unfortunate. I got mine from a vape shop and vapordna. But, I know what is like to be soured by a product or company.

    Im completely smitten with these devices now, i have a Von Erl (VE), but want to try them all. Have a MyJet and JUUL on the way.

    One issue with the VE is you have to suck quite hard to get it going, im sure this is a well known issue by now. Anyway, having managed to rewick and recoil the bugger, i wondered what would happen if i drilled the air hole out a bit. 2mm drill bit and rebuild later, its a much more relaxed vape but the draw is about the same.

    And once again, I feel like I'm back in 2009 now.

    I will say this though...
    More power to you, and keep on keeping on!

    It was back in those days when we tried to improve things with daring and ingenuity.
    We didn't rest on our laurels, whatever those are.

    Ever vape with a tampon for wicking material?
    :laugh:

    We "seeked" out new life, and new civilized vaping setups.
    It's how we got here, and how we shall persevere.

    Sorry, I just got a little nostalgic for a moment.
    It will pass.
    :)

    MyJet arrived, been using for 1 day but the only thing i like over the Von Erl is the smooth draw.

    Flavour is a bit lacking and the vape is harsh. When you look at how big the air channel is and how far away the coil is from the inlet, it makes sense. The juice cooks in slow moving air.

    As i said the smooth draw is a bonus, build quality is good, feels more solid generally than the VE. The mouth piece design is an abomination, whoever approved that needs taking out back.

    Still not as bad as the Juul. Aside from the Cync, I think the mouthpiece of the VE, JUUL, and the MyJet all suck. Still like to use them, though.

    I got the regular. The Mini I had broke while the replacement for the other regular was in the mail. I left the top off too long and all the liquid leaked out of the USB port. I think it should be retired. No? :D
    It can leak out usb port..I was thinking of giving one to a 58yr man that fights 4 his cigs

    Ok people . so what's the consensus on these. (I'm getting the I care regular for someone that WILL NOT STOP SMOKING. heart problems etc..gonna be a battle..)
    I need the easiest, closest to a cigarette device , to fight w this man..mouthpiece , draw,nic etc....
    I kno,I kno.if he doesn't want help,why try. well I got his family bugging the [Moderated] outta him.he's in restaurant around food and customers all day/nite..he's gonna break maybe tobacco 1st,then try food flavors..we don't wanna lose him.

    I do get seepage, but no leaking (sorry to make such a distinction).

    But if he is only working on quitting, and not trying to save money per se, the JUUL pods should do him just fine (but the mouthpiece is a toughie).

    Edit: Thought I was in a differernt thread. :oops:

    Just an FYI.. MyVon ERL tobak pods have changed flavor wise and available in 36mg. Flavor and smell reminds me of HALO Freedom Juice. Really nice! $7.95 for a 2 pack. $9.95 for 2 packs using 3rd party liquid like Cuttwood, etc. Again, super easy to refill. So glad I tossed the JUUL. $18.00 for 4 pods at 0.7ml is crazy. MyVonErl pods hold much more. Has anyone tried the Apollo Brez yet?

    This may have been asked, but which of the known devices is best for refill and rebuildability? I don't want to constantly buy coil heads/cartridges if I can avoid it.

    I like the form factor of the Juul/VonEarl/MyJet etc but I'd like to be able to rebuild if possible or dry burn and rewick (I believe someone mentioned they did this on the VonEarl.

    The MyJet is probably the easiest to dry burn and rewick.

    For sure.

    It seemed like the coil heads on the iCare can actually be rebuilt wick and wire, as opposed to the other "pod" ones.

    The even with the myjet, at some point I'd imagine I need to get new cartridges.
