upgrade time!

[Sherry7001]

Using Kanger Evod 2 for about 2 months now & it's time to move on to bigger & better. I'm thinking iStick mini. So damn cute! Topped with an Aspire Nautilus mini tank. My Kanger is fine to take to work, where I just have 2 short smoke breaks in an 8 hour shift. But it's a pain if I'm home vaping on & off all day having to switch & charge batteries. Not to mention I accidentally put it into my coffee, which was right beside the empty mug I use as a holder, LOL.
I know nothing about watts & voltage & ohms. I'm afraid I won't know how to use it. I want something user-friendly for a newbie. Does it fit the bill?

istick mini seems like it would be a good upgrade for you, esp. if you do not want to break the bank.

Actually, if you want less fuss, the full size nautilus might be better for you, since the mini really does not hold much and you will be filling all the time, sort of like you were charging batts all the time. Just bringing that up since you seem to want a few "less chores" with your vape.

It has a screen where you can switch from Watts to Volts.......really all you gotta do is press the up and down buttons til you get the vape you like. Not a lot of ohms watts voltage knowledge necessary

I would not recommend the Istick Mini. Because of short battery life. I think the Istick 30 or istick40tc. A full 2000 mah battery should be able to last all day. The battery in the mini is only 1,050 mah.

Is it cute and compact? Heck yeah! But would rather have a battery that lasts all day.

Nothing worse than wanting a vape but you can't because the battery is dead.

Definitely opt for the iStick 30w. It's very small and more versatile than the mini.

I agree completely. I see the Istick mini as being useful for road trips or the office where an employee only has a few smoke breaks a day.

1050 mah. Will not last too long at full power.

My WiFi bit again and made double post. Sorry

 

[djsvapour]

I vote 30w and mini Nautilus.

I am biased, as there are 2 or 3 of them lined up in the kitchen.

 

[Sir2fyablyNutz]

The iStick Mini only goes to 10 watts. Get a 30 watt iStick at the minimum.

 

[suprtrkr]

+1 on the iStick 30

Thank you for posting this fact. 10 watts is completely insufficient to drive any decent tank. I drive my Goblin Mini at twice that amount of power. I use more than that much power on a Kayfun and it is strictly s MTL device.

I have both tanks and have been using them equally for just over a week since I seriously started vaping full time (yup, I am a newbie!). I love the draw from the full size Nautilus but the 5ml capacity is a bit much for me as I am still trying out different flavours and don't like to waste juice.

I bought a few of the $5-7 Aspire CE tanks to try different flavours and the draw sucks.

The Nautilus Mini has the perfect capacity for me as I vape 2-3ml a day but the draw isn't as good as the full size.

The full size is a better value IMO as it is close in price to the Mini and includes spare glass. If I wasn't vaping lots of different flavours trying to find my favorites, I would definately go full size Nautilus (x2 or 3) and be done with it.

Regarding a mod, the iStick 40w has served me well (for just over a week) and I get a full day out of a charge. Cheaper in the US, but you should be able to get the 40w and a Nautilus tank for around $80CAD.

I just ordered a Kanger Subox though but havent recieved it yet. Looking forward to trying this mod and It wasn't super expensive.

Cheers!

Um, I vape my nautilus mini and kayful light V2 around 8W But I do recommend the istick 30W and 40W for battery life.

Istick 30W or Istick 40W are both fine, and if you want the nautilus mini as well, ecig.com has a good deal on a bundle. If you buy from Sweet Vapes, buy a silicone sleeve, protects it and gives a good grip!

May I ask what tank or RTA are you using?

Right now I am rocking my Silverplay Nano clone at 12.5. My Goblin Mini usually needs 15-17.5 watts for full flavor.

I use nautilus mini's, kayfun lite V2 clone at 8W and subtank mini at around 8 to 12w on my isticks. Either could handle your power easily but battery life might not be great at 17.5W.

I agree. Both are very good mods. The 40 is very good in voltage and wattage mode.

The 40 can do temp control but don't recommend using it in TC mode. Battery life in TC mode is anemic.

David I was just surprised to find someone vaping under 10 watts.

 

[Sherry7001]

OK, the mini is out. Probably get the 30 w. I can buy different skins/wraps for it. The ladies go for looks as well as function, lol.

 

[Winchester]

Hi,
I think you would be happier with a IPV D2 and a Kanger tank. Later on if you get an RDA it will work very well. Mine lasts all day on a single 18650 battery.

 

[drugarth]

Or you could go for one of the kangside mini's, with either internal battery:

$21.03 Kangside KSD Mini 25W 1800mAh VV/VW Variable Voltage/Wattage APV Mod - 2-8.5V / 7-25W / aluminum at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

Or replaceable:

Original Kangside Kingside KSD Vamo Box 25W VW Mod

They're small, bit more oomph, and bit more battery than the Istick mini, cheap too

 

[dennism]

I have both an istick 30w and an istick 40w tc, they are about the same price ($30), I would suggest getting the 40w, tc is there if you ever want to try it. I also have a few nautilus mini's, love them. If you want to try something less expensive try the aspire k1 glassomizers, if you try the glassomizers be sure your istick comes with an ego adapter. worldofvape is where I got mine.
