I think you'd like it.
It's smaller than the MVP and much lighter. Obviously battery doesn't last as long, but I like it.
BTW, I have both and like both equally for different reasons.

I have a couple iSticks, they work fine, battery lasts all day without a problem, works great with the nautilus mini.
Good luck..!
new MVP coming out at the end of the month. MVP20w out now (basically MVP2: same enclosure, battery, features - but can go to 20w...)
I stick is supposed to be pretty good.

For $35. to the door they can not be beat. Tried one, liked it and then bought 2 more for spares. I also have 2- MVP's which I like. I will buy a 20 or 30 watt MVP when both are out and I see the reviews on both.
That really stinks. Maybe it'll turn up.
That's what happened to me. I had a version 1 MVP, lost it, ordered a new one then found my old one. It's close to 2 years old and still works- although the button is missing.

The MVP3 is officially releasing on Monday. PBusardo is at the ceremony and getting a free one. He already has a review on youtube. It's more of a question of cost. Being made by Itaste, it has very step-down ability and a 3800mah battery. Much better specs and strength of build. Actually, the MVP20W is down to $25.
I just checked, I didn't see pbusardos video for the MVP3... 20w yes. also where is 20w for sale for $25?
Someone found the MVP20W, $24.99. I think another found it at $27. I guess they are down since Christmas is over. Also, the 3.0, for the features will be at a good price. I think there is some market competition going on.
After the iStick disaster, they are jumping back with a 2.0. iTaste VV3-4/MVPs have really good power control with step down. Anyway, it is on Tasteyourjuice. Phil said that the initial price will be out Monday and he will be back Tuesday. I anticipate more info Monday night.
I am going to track down that price. Might be in the big MVP next generation thread.

Be aware that the 20W iStick uses MEAN and not RMS to calculate power output so will feel overpowered compared to the MVP.
The threads are "soft" so you'll need to be careful screwing your toppers on and off or you might strip them.
Also, the centre pin is fixed and can sometimes be pushed down depending upon the length of the male 510 connector you're using. I always use the 510-ego adapter that comes supplied with some kits (check to see if it does before you buy) to try and avoid the above two problems.
Having said that, I own two iSticks. I love them and have had no problems with them, but I think it's only fair for you to be made aware of the main issues that people have complained about.
The iStick 30W is soon to be released, which is reported to have a spring loaded centre pin so you may want to have a look at that one as well. Pre-orders have just started for it.

Some posts and a Reddit. Hope helps.
Happy New Year! This is the iTaste MVP3.0!
The MVP3 is a 30W device with a 3800Mah Battery that can fire down to .4ohm and can charge electronic devices. It has a smart and clear OLED screen with intuitive controls, well placed flush stainless steel threads, high quality spring connector and a strong side fire button. It is initially available in 4 colors and, like the MVP2.0, there will be wraps.
To show that this is the real deal, we are going to be giving the MVP3 to Phil Busardo and Dimitris when they visit Shenzhen and we are planning to ask them to review the MVP3 at Innokin next Monday when they tour the Innokin factory and offices.

I'm a little confused about what MEAN is. I have a little understanding about RMS from my younger days of car stereo systems but I'm still learning what these terms mean in vaping.
The reason I'm asking is because I have an MVP 2.0 and am iPV 2S. With one of my liquids (Halo Mystic), I can vape on my MVP at 11 watts, no problem on my Nautilus. But if the same tank and juice is on my iPV, it's burnt unless I'm vaping at about 8 watts.
Is what you are saying about the iStick vs MVP the same as my iPV vs MVP?
There is a thing called "Step-Down" capability. As the watts are changed, the volts should change along with them. Well, as it has been, the control wouldn't lower the volts below what the battery is currently discharging. So, even though your watts are low, higher power is still going to the coil.
The MVP and the Provari, as mainstream units for the last year or so, the DNA40 and the Yihi SX350 chip will "step down" the volts. But 90% of the others up until now didn't. So, the DNA40, SX350 and Provari cost a lot. The MVP series are the only affordable ones. The MVP2 was great, the MVP20W is great in its limited capacity, and the MVP3 will also be able to step down the volts.
I want true, controlled power as I set it, wherever I set the watts. I look for step-down capability.
That is how it was explained to me in discussions and reading. Hope helps.

I don't know for sure what method the IPV 2S uses to calculate its power output but from your description, it's possible it uses MEAN (or Vavg).
This simple explanation was posted by rader2146 a couple of years ago in another thread.
http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/variable-voltage-apv-discussion/366503-rms-vs-mean.html
"Layman's terms: RMS voltage means that you get an output that matches the desired setting and can use the voltage setting to get accurate wattage calculations. Mean (average) voltage will not give you an accurate wattage calculation, and as you have found out, hits harder than RMS mode due to this inaccuracy."
And you might find this thread useful, too.

Hope this helps.
I thought the istick was great for a week or two then I kept getting errors with different attys wouldn't fire same with my wife's. Kept having to adjust firing pin kind of a pain the idea is great but hit and mis. I don't have a mvp but I have heard really good things. I got the vapor shark and it's great works so good little more cash but usa made and you can send it back to get fixed and it's the same size.
