The 50W istick is great, it really is but I sometimes have a weird issue with it. Occasionally when pulling a hit, it sort of skips in and out. What I mean by this is usually when you're pressing the power button and drawing vapor, it will be continuous thing. Sometimes with my 50W istick, it will only hit for a second, stop, then continue to hit. It's really strange. I was wondering if this happened with anyone else and if so, are there any solutions to fixing this?
50W Istick issue?

Mines been great so far. Manufacture defect maybe. bad pin connection thou id assume it throw a short oe no atty errer.
Yeah, I noticed that too from time to time both with my 50W and 20W.
Push harder. I think the button's actuation point internally needs full pressure to maintain connection.
You can actually test this. On mine, the current stops flowing before the 'up-click' if that makes any sense. Or 'un-click' if you prefer.
I guess a more technical description would be that the button's electrical continuity terminates prior to the perceived tactile feedback from the mechanism. At least with mine.

As far as I can tell this is normal, keep pressure on the button and it will keep firing...I think it may have a little to do with how the button is shaped too, since it is rounded, so depending on finger positioning, it is easy to release pressure inadvertently
Yeah, you need to keep the same pressure on it through the vape. The button is slippery.
I think you guys are on to something. Pressing hard seems to be working. Thanks!!!
Same thing happens on mine. The first week to 10 days, as long as you cleared that click threshold, it fired. Now, sometimes it acts like you described. I'm sorry, but once it clicks, it should fire until it "unclicks".
I've had that come up as well and it was that I hadn't fully pressed the fire button (sometimes it clicks twice). I was also thinking it could be the fact that the istick uses both PWM and DC (check out pbusardo's review) and that it could be the rattlesnaking. PWM kicks in if you are trying to regulate it down and may cause rattlesnaking. If that is what was happening though, the time between fire and non-fire would be extremely short.
Its not happening to me now. I just figured I got used to it. I'm rather impressed with it for the price.
My black Sigelei Mini 30w had this problem for the first few days, however it resolved itself once it wore in a bit. Hopefully it gets better with time!
