What batteries are you running in yours? I've been running dual LG HE2s (3000 mAh) in mine and they drain all the way down to 3.2 v without problems. I just switched them out to a pair of Samsung 25Rs (2500 mAh) to see if it makes a difference.

That's weird that yours signals low power at 25% but mine doesn't. I am interested in hearing what others have to say. One of us has a mod with an anomaly!
Does yours even do this at all? Interrupt you with a low battery warning forcing you to press the button twice?
No it has never done that to me. It just dies when the batteries are completely drained, which surprised me, actually.
I am not sure if Fastech still has the sell going on, but they had them for 27.00 and free ship!
Haha, I know, right? I am at half battery level right now and I am watching mine with these 2500 mAh batteries in it to see if I notice anything. I will report back, too!I'll let mine run low and see what happens and post back... May take 4 or 5 days
I am seriously thinking about picking up a white one. I like it that much!I'll let mine run low and see what happens and post back... May take 4 or 5 days
it'd b gorgeous, waiting for my local b&m to start selling white TC100W, currently on shipping, so they said. just can't wait [emoji39]

Nice! I'm glad you will be able to get one locally. I want to see a hand check of the white one!
Okay, I FINALLY got the batteries in the iStick depleted. I ran them all the way down and I did not have to double-press the fire button when the battery got low. I shot a little video of what happened when I got to extremely low power as well as what the batteries read when the mod finally stopped firing. @BigEgo what kind of low battery warning are you getting on yours? Is it the flashing empty battery like mine shows or something else? I am wondering if there might have been an update done at some point and mine isn't yet updated. I can't believe how well this mod works all they way through the battery cycle! I didn't notice much of any drop-off near the end, even though I was looking for it this time.
Yeah mine does that when the battery is nearly dead, but it also gives me a "battery low" warning starting at around 3.6V or so. Not sure if it's a bug or if they just really want you to be reminded that you'll need fresh batteries in a few hours (or days). lol
Also, when my batteries get depleted, my charger says they are at 3.3V, not 3.18. I have a NiteCore D2, so I dunno. It also only charges my batteries (according to the iStick) to 4.15 or so. Not sure if this is something Nitecore does intentionally for safety or if the charger is just inaccurate (or maybe the iStick is inaccurate with its voltage readings). I don't have a multimeter to test.
As to Joyetech doing silent firmware upgrades, it's very possible. These Chinese companies do this type of thing a lot. Different batches will come with different firmware without it being stated in the packaging, etc.

We definitely have 2 different versions. I will see if I can get some information on which one is the more updated version. I will play with mine a little bit today. After finding out we could add a Ti setting to the iStick 40w I am curious to know if there are any Easter Eggs on this one!
@jseah have you run yours all the way down? Do you get a low battery warning or does it just die when the batteries are depleted?
