Joyetech eRoll - alternatives, atomisers, annoyance

[highpass]

Hi Vaportalk,

Bear with me on this...

I've been using ecigs since the Ego-C, and switched to the eRoll when that came out. Bought my girl one. Since then have bought 5-6 batteries, countless atomizers, 2 replacement charging cases. It's a love/hate thing; the size is perfect. Everything else... not so much.

Atomisers... these used to last me a week or two. The last batch are lasting 2 days a pop. They're official - or appear to be. My girlfriend seems to make hers last months. I maintain them using ye olde dry burn method but it would appear that's not the way to go any more.

I vape this thing a lot. It craps out a lot. I use 24mg liquid, so it's not like I can bump that up to lower the usage.

I suppose my questions are:

is there a clearomiser mod for this, and would such a thing even make a difference?

are there any alternatives that are similar in size but better for heavy vapors?

how many of you experience the same annoyance with this kit?

what's the longest you've had an atomizer last?

is this enough questions?

Cheers

HP

This will work on your batteries.And should be more better .Might need a syringe for filling it unless your liquid comes in a needle tip bottle.

Thanks - ordered, although I'm dubious how the two connect. The eRoll battery is a twist/lock type, not screw.

The clearo that was linked will not work on the Eroll

I used the eroll for a while. Def lasted longer than a couple days. But vape wasnt satisfyling til I went to eGo style battery. Lots of options, and good vapor.

I got used to bigger size pretty quickly

Ok first attempt at finding a replacement is a kanger t3s with mini ego battery. Still kind of massive, looks like some sort of syringe bomb. Will probably get stopped in the subway if seen holding it.

1.8ohm head - nice throat hit - tastes crappy

2.2ohm head - ok throat hit - tastes ok

A question... I would like to know why it is that after 3 puffs on this setup i am satisfied, whereas with the eroll i will puff on it every 5 minutes all day long. The throat hit is only marginally different so it can't be that. I wonder if this clearomiser method produces more nicotine in the vapor vs the eroll? There must be a scientific explanation for it.

Bebop - i went the opposite route - started with big egos going from assorted C types to eCab to eRoll. Small size is key for me (I remember feeling like i was carrying around a flute with the C).

I know what you mean. A T2 with a 1000mah twist is very much like a drum stick, as one astute vaper pointed out.

I had to learn how to draw on the eroll to get the best effect. But for me, once I switched I quickly got over the size issues.
