Gotta have the latest thing when it's on sale. Otherwise, you don't know what you were missing out on.
That said, I tend to stick with what's pocket sized and does everything I want to vape at 10 watts. The chunky mods tend to be used around the house and don't get to go out, ride in the car, and see the world that often.

Anybody have the Griffin 22mm? Mine came in last week.
The grub screws on this thing are junk, as well as the deck posts. All my grub screws were so tight I thought I'd strip them getting them loose. I got them all out after wetting them with PG and putting them back in, hoping to smooth and polish the threads by doing that. They went in hard and one seized (not cross threaded). All the time I was waiting for the pop that says the flats went round in the screws.
So, after removing and replacing them I decided to install a coil. Three came out fine and the 4th wouldn't budge. I never got it out, careful as I was not to strip the flats. Finally, POP! The flats rounded and it's toast.
The first thing I noticed about the deck was that one post was curved slightly. The other was perfectly straight. The Grub screw that stripped was in the curve of the post. That probably cause it to lock down.
I have an email into VaporRange tech support. Hopefully, they will send me a deck or a new atomizer. I have never had an issue with deck screws in any one of my large box of atomizers, other than the Kayfun phillips cross slots getting rounded after a year or two of builds. Even then, a pair of good pliers with turn them.

Ok guys, I finally dug out my pico and have been using it for a few days now. Sadly it is going back in my use when I have nothing else to use drawer. Granted it is short but it is just too wide to fit comfortably in my hand. I was tempted by the great prices I have been seeing but will just have to pass them by. I do hope those of y'all that have stocked up on them have at least tried them out to be sure they will work as well as expected when it come time to use them.
Fortunately I am well stocked on my favorite kbox mini and hubby assures me that he will be able to replace the battery in my istick 30 watts when needed so all is not lost.

I used to get thumb soreness using the original istick 20w and the TC 40W model. The Pico is wider and I still have to think about how I grip it to prevent that. The Pico is still too narrow for my hand, but it's a convenient mod and I like the replaceable battery. I really liked my iStick 50W because it was a lot wider and fit my hand well without joint pain, but the ones I had experienced early deaths.
I am ordering nicotine TODAY! I get a small royalty payment every month, usually $25-$150, though randomly it's several times more than that. This months royalty came in at over $400, WOO HOO! I will feel a gazillion times better once I have a start on the nicotine stash. Now if only I could decide where to pull the trigger.
Not overly tiny but sadly I do have a few problems with them. I can't seem to keep the button pressed for a full drag on it. I have the same problem with my MVP's and I have a bunch of them. I am really glad I won this pico in a contest so was able to test it out without having to buy it. I feel sure it will work out for hubby though if he decided to use it so all is not lost.Well that's a bummer. You must have tiny hands
You may want to try small bottles of nic from different vendors and do a taste test before investing in a bunch for your stockpile. I bought the majority of mine from RTSVapes. If you choose to buy from them be sure to request a price match. I price matched Heartland's price. I am thinking it was just a bit less than $50.00 a liter. I bought 2 at a time so got free shipping along with a good price for the nic.
That's great news! I got mine from MFS. If your order is over $75 (which it sounds like it will be), shipping is free
Fortunately the istick 20 and 30 fit my hand perfectly and the button placement works really well for me. So far I've not had any of mine go bad and I have been using them for well over 2 years now. Guess I have been very lucky with all of mine.
