eleaf istick Pico is on the way. 75W TC, 18650, smart short form factor.

 

[pufZeppelin]

hey now, the istick Pico looks like it might be pretty cool...

along with it, looks like they're introducing the Melo 3 mini tank

with the other eleaf stuff I have, will be interested in the 'specs' & thoughts about this one...

I know that all of you here are quite fond and friendly with @fourthrok.

She wanted you all to know that she's thinking of you, and missing you all, however...

Sadly (very sadly), our sweet friend lost her husband/soulmate a few days back. To say her life is inside out and upside down would be a gross understatement. We've been in contact, and she is aware that I am letting you know. She wishes she could be posting here, but she really does not have the energy or time right now. Life decisions, and other difficult situations are all she can manage right now. In time, I'm sure she'll be back.

I'm hopeful that by letting you now know, that when she does return, she will not have to go thru it all again.

So please understand why she hasn't been posting in these parts. Let's keep her close to our hearts, as those sincere feelings will be of great value to her.

I look forward to her sweet return!

Thank you, @Katdarling. Very sad.

Well if you watch the video, he was saying that it was 'like a mech' in that there's no screen and no adjustments, 'just push the button', but 'regulated' only in the sense of what ohms your coils are.

In another video (I watched a few :- ) someone had the spec sheets from Kangertech, (which he posts on facebook) where the real 'max' is 75W and the real 'ohm' basement limit is 1.5Ω but in the manual it is 60W and 2.2Ω for other (legal/safety?) reasons, I'm guessing.

So it isn't "mod adjusted regulated" where you can vary voltage - which is really what you're doing when you change "wattage" - but you can change wattage with different coil builds. So it acts like a mech - one button push, but one can still 'regulate' the wattage with different ohms in coil builds.

But yeah, with what devices we have seen so far, it looks like an oxymoron :- )

Sounds more like an apple product to me. Just saying....

I hope she knows that her ECF friends send many hugs and prayers her way. I've enjoyed her greatly here and I hope she returns to our madness when her life settles a bit.

 

[Katdarling]

Alden, you and your big, sweet heart. You really are.

I'm sure she will when life settles a bit. Right now, it's sort of a mess, understandably.

iStick Pico 75W (No Battery)

I gave up looking for a pocket beater and ordered a vtc mini right before this thing was announced. Considering I've had great luck with isticks and the size seems perfect, I imagine I'll be ordering a couple of them next month when they are available for around $30 stateside.

Eleaf iStick Pico is on the way. 75W TC, 18650, smart short form factor.

Shorter but wider than the istick 50. This image was photoshopped:

Still, nice mod if 'too wide' isn't a deal breaker.

My thinking too. I estimate the height to the base of the tank at 62mm. That only 6-7mm taller than Nugget and Mini Volt. (20mm shorter than VCT Mini) Very good stealth, will disappear into a shirt pocket, and you still get the benefits of a replaceable 18650.

The trade-off (as @Kent C notes) is width, because the mod is designed as a partial side by side to reduce height. It's a smart trade-off IMO. I don't like toppers poking out my shirt pocket when I'm at work. A little extra width is fine with me.
