I like the fact that this new 100W uses removeable batteries. I'm at the point where I'm stockpiling these in my Vapocalypse kit. I've had a hard time resisting some of the other great new mods that are out now, but if they have internal batteries, I just don't want them. And I'm still not convinced I need TC. I'm pretty happy with my GS Airs and kanthal coils. I've got enough kanthal to last for years, so why would I suddenly want to have to change over to something else that might not give me any better of a vape. :2c:

Hey guys, I want to buy the 40w as my first TC device... Has anyone tried it yet? I can use any feedback :D
I haven't. I'm still waitin on one like this. (At least they did come out with Temp adjustment..:))
I want a design that doesn't use a wick, it just shoots a programmable adjustable shot of juice ( 1-5 drops) in a preset temperature adjustable heat chamber that instantly vaporizes the liquid and auto reloads for the next shot. Adjustable from semi to full automatic with optional forced air output. Capable of delivering up to 10 hps (hits per second) with a pressure relief valve to prevent blowin a lung. :)

Edit: And works on my stick 30

One time it would not fire and while poking and prodding there was a small spark and magically it worked again. Sometimes you had to put the pressure toward the top of the button as opposed to straight on.
I think that might have been a fluke. The switch actuates every time regardless of where you push the button. I am interested in the spark though. I can't find any evidence of it and can't tell where it could come from. Where did you see the spark?

This post has nothing to do with isticks or vaping, but can I just whine a little??? I was trying to clean around my trash cans tonight, moved something, and WHAMO - disturbed a colony of YELLOW JACKETS. Got stung about 10 times, including in my hair and those evil buzzers even stung my scalp! :-xGot the tip of one ear too, and a variety of other stings on my arms and leg.

If I have my way, there will be an exterminator here tomorrow and Cheech's frog won't be the only dead thing we talk about here.:evil:

OK, whine over...return to your regularly scheduled istick talk.

I almost gut stung by some wasps getting diesel yesterday. I opened the fuel cap door on my Dodge and they came flyin out off the nest they had built on the cap. I almost grabbed a handful.... :)

That's scary, Bike. Glad you didn't grab them. I had no idea these had set up residence around my trash cans. They are about to get evicted.:-x Darn stings still hurt and it's been about 4 hours.

It was under/around where the 510 is. I think I shifted the batteries, moving the red wire maybe? Can't remember because it was on accident and happened so fast. But I agree it could have been a fluke.

I know of two people who have had successful transplants and are still around today... My Mom got a Kidney in '09, Father-in-law got a liver in '06. So maybe it is a sign? Question is, is that something you would want to try? If so order the module and I will PayPal the money to you. The way I see it, and please don't take this the wrong way... even if you did bring it back there would always be doubt in my mind because of the reliability of the unit itself. I am not sure I would carry it daily without a backup like my Kbox. A different module all together though... Different story.

I have yet to hear of any of the copies have these issues?

I've only heard of one clone that died. I don't remember if it auto-fired. My guess is that these are not bad chips but may be bad because of assembly problems like whatever caused the spark, which indicates a short (or loose connection). I was talkin about the fact that you were pushing the button a different way when it started back workin as being a fluke not the spark.
