Joy Tech E-Grip

Hello all,
I recently purchased the E-Grip and it worked flawlessly for the first two days. After that, All i got was a nasty burnt taste. Cleaned the device, changed coils and got the same. Took the device back and got a new one..... Same thing. I am not vaping it over 8 watts and even at 8 if i try to get a decent hit, It is still horrible. I saw that the aspire coils would work in the device with some minor changes. Anyone have any other recommendations or encountered this problem?
Thanks In Advance.

Mines a gurgling burping fuckin' mess like a piece of shit broken straw you'd throw out!

RBA kit worked great for a few days. About like every other fucking vape toy I've bought so I don't know why I expected this one to be any better!

Yeah, It really sucks spending money on something i had high hopes for and it being completely garbage. Did some research and saw that maybe i had the coil tightened down too much. Going to give that a try. sucks because i really like the aesthetics of this device

IKR? I was looking for the same answers as you that's why I responded to hear what you find out later. I put the stock kit and throw away coil back in for now.

Heading to work with it and see how that goes.

I've had three egrips for several months, and I use them all with the RBA bases. They work very well, but it's important to really tighten the base slightly beyond what you'd expect. I used the stock coils for about a day, but wasn't thrilled with them. I did try a regular Aspire bvc coil in one, and it was slightly better. But the RBA base gives amazing flavor.

Sorry - my question was why not the RBA base but the regular coils are ok? What's the difference as far as stealth vaping goes?

You know, Thinking of it, I gave you a silly response.... I didn't think it like that. However, It would be a shame to HAVE to use one or the other for the device to work like it is supposed to work with either.

Try the BVC aspire coils - they do work better than the stock coils!

But the reason I said the RBA base is because the flavor is 10 times better!

My regular base shorted out using the BVC Aspires. I only got to use them for a couple of days before it "poofed". I've sent message after message to Joyetech trying to buy a new regular base & get no response (and, I forget to call them during normal hours). However, the RBA base still fires away. I sure would like to use up those expensive coils that I bought for it when it first came out. I like the tighter draw on the regular base. Oh well, live and learn. o_O
