With a link. I generally don't like the idea of non replaceable batteries but this is handy enough to make me rethink that.

Yeah my iStick gets punch as well. But whenever I get this error, I simply put that tank on another mod and I'm fine so it is the iStick. I ordered this sucker as well and, hopefully this issue goes away. Hopefully eLeaf will resolve this with their next product.

This little guy not only will protect your 510 connector from wear, it will solve all kind of other issues as an atty or tank not connecting properly to your mod or device, since its top can be screwed in or out easily, making small changes in how deep the atty connector enters mod 510 connector. Only a little over 1/2 cm tall and 22mm round, perfect for most atties and tanks. Once you put it on top of your mod you will want to leave it there. And it will also catch any small leaks before they get to your mod. It is advertised as "AIR CONTROLLER", i am not sure if this is its best feature...but all the above is. And it is cheap!

Found this tidbit on reddit

"The o-ring insulator under the iStick's centre connector has been squashed. When you tighten your atty it moves and shorts out.
Get a small flat screwdriver and carefully lift the centre pin and try and squash as much of the o-ring back underneath it.
It's a common problem with the iStick. If your atomiser's centre sticks out too much it'll break the rubber insulator."

I shut off my battery 'just to be safe' and got a mini screwdriver and moved it around nudging the o-ring under the edge of the pin. This completely solved my problem. It was also mentioned that the o-ring could be replaced "Number 60 O-Ring for a hardware store".

Since the reddit thread has some language that is against forum rules I am hesitant to post the link. If you want the link, just PM me. :vapor:
