They one most people have now is 20w. They have a 30 and a 50 coming out.
iStick 50W (4400mAh)

I don't think they've specified an amp limit for it yet Noahfence. I've seen multiple reports of it being able to fire down to 0.2ohms though - although nothing confirmed from eleaf that I've heard.
Anyone know if the 30 and 50 will be more accurate than the 20 is? Or are they going to use the same chip that makes it spit out molten lava at 3W? lol
Mod range | Steam Engine | free vaping calculators << This is a really helpful calculator
Just curious if anyone has been able to determine the actual amp limit on this mod. I've seen a couple of videos where people have removed the batteries but they're pretty generic looking.
Ohms law for current is: I=E/R (I=V/R in modern form).
At 50 watts with a 2 ohm coil it reads 10V. That would be 5 amps. At 1 ohm you'd draw 10 amps. 10V is the top stop for voltage. It's said to read resistance down to .4 ohms and vape up to 5 ohms, but I don't know what it would do at the .4 ohm resistance. It would cut off if the wattage or amperage drain were exceeded.
I ran the numbers through an Ohm's law calculator.
To stay safely below the 50W power limit at .2 ohms, you'd have to vape no higher than 3.1V. That would put you at 48.5W and 15.5A.

I bought the 50 and use an arctic sub-ohm tank, it reads at .3 resistance and it lets me adjust the wattage from 13.3w to 50w.
I have the I stick 50watt and like the 44000 Mha. Have a kanger sub tank with 0.5 ohm head on it.
Check out Pbusardos review he usually does measurements.Thank you
I shall await more info from eleaf.
I'm sold on it, I just want to know its limit

Amp limit is 15.
How do I know? I took apart an istick 50w and an istick 30w. Both had the same 18650 batteries inside...unbranded but marked with 15A CDR. I may still have pics on my old phone, will find it and check if anyone wants me to...
Why is eleaf marketing a 50w/0.2ohm 'limit'? Probably because they can, knowing they're protected from any liability issues due to not only the unregulated-as-yet nature of vaping, but also the fact they've never stated an amp limit...

PS if you go so far as to take apart the devices, the batteries can be changed, just know it'll never be any easier to do than it was the first time. Lol. But I put a pair of 25r's in the 50w and I feel much better about the whole thing now
