Hi i bought a rokstar at the end of October which i used for 5 weeks before i fell off the wagon. I decided to start using it again this week but when i got it out of the box i found the silver ring that sits on top of the chamber was loose. When i tried vaping i found that the silver ring came away from the chamber. Went to swap to my second chamber and found this one to be the same. Am i the only one to have this problem. It caused the juice to leak and is totally unusable. I rang rok and they were very nice but said its time to buy new chambers. Could this problem be caused by the lids pulling the silver ring off? I don't know what to do, should i go back to my original 501/901 . Buy some spares off rok or try another ecig with a chamber. Sorry for long post. Thankyou

I can't find anything on there about problems. Just reviews and ejuice comparisons. Has anyone else given up on their rokstar.

Furball, if Rokstar rebel can't help you, you would be far better off buying a Riva.

Hi Furball,
I have not heard of anything like you have described, are you talking about the older 'Pre-release' tanks or the newer 'stealth' tanks ? If you bought yours in October, then you will have the older tanks which were all replaced (free) by Rok Universal. If you have the older tanks, get in touch with them and tell them that you have been missed out with the replacements (unless you bought it second hand). As to replacing the parts, if that's what you decide to do, then go to ecig wizard, as they sell tanks and atomisers at about half the price of Rok Universal, although they call it the 'Super Tank' ! They have stock at the moment and have a FREE post system in place. As to Chrissie's suggestion of a Riva, lol. Sorry, you will have to give me a minute (still laughing now), that's better. Well you could always try it out, but to quote RAWVEG/Tim (from vapour trails TV & UKV),"with it's (the Rok Star) good vapour production and strong flavour, it's a shame not to experience it", not my words, but I do echo his sentiments. If you need anything else (Rok Star Related), then please feel free to email Me directly, the address is on the site that Disco Des kindly pointed you to earlier in the thread, under 'contact me'. Hope this helps, RSR

Yep, I know what that is..........lol
Still, we all have to start somewhere.....and it helped me make the switch to vaping so much easier, but hey.....laughing is good for the soul.
BTW, those laughable little cig-a-likes are now in the hands of 2 more would be vapers, so now that's a VIP thats converted 5 smokers into vapers, not bad for a little cig-a-like that everybody slams as useless ! Just goes to show what really works rather than what we think would work, lol.
How is your friend getting on with her cig-a-like ? or did she go for the Riva/carto package ?

That's good, at least she is vaping rather than smoking. It's a good thing that the world is full of different people, with different views and values, would it not be a boring world if we all agreed on everything all the time ? Variety truly is the 'spice' of life ! Well it makes for interesting conversations (& posts), lol.
