I am a new member but have a question about my eleaf istick. I have owed it for 6 months now and the screws on top and bottom will become lose throughout the day. I will tighten them, but within a minute they are loose again. The shop I night it from says its normal and I just need to upgrade. What can I do to at least get a year out of my purchase?

You're lucky you're still going 6 months with the istick 20. Most wear down after a few months (bad threads, no more on/off etc).
I'd say - upgrade to the istick 30 which is much better bade, better threads, better board and up to 30watts.

A simple fix is to get some thread lock compound, you'll have difficult getting the screws out afterward though.

Just apply a little bit to the screw threads, put the screws back in, let it sit for a couple hours to cure, loosening threads no more problem, can find it at Home Depot, Lowes, Ace Hardware, or your local hardware store if not in the US

Gee thanks. We only have one store in our area and I like to keep business local as doesost of our community. We are a small town with local ties to each other. Plus I am dying in less than a year so not in a huge hurry to change things just thought there might be an easy fix.
Make sure to use the blue - do not use red (unless you know for a fact that you will never want to take them out)
