Dear friend,

Thank you for your email and sorry for our late response.

http://www.eleafworld.com/ This is our iSmoka official website which introduces our products in detailed and release our new products at first time.

We have no relation with Joyetech. Joyetech is another e-cigarette brand.

Thank you so much.

Best regards,


Winni

Hmmm, I've been considering e-mailing eleaf myself to get an official response on the battery capacity. As pbusardo pointed out, the numbers on the battery correlate to an 1850mah battery, yet Eleaf advertises it as 2600mah.

But I doubt they would admit to doing anything wrong. They sent out a video for the 20w proving to everyone that the voltage was accurate. What they didn't tell you was that the device was measuring mean voltage, with no ability to properly step down.

So I'm suspecting I wouldn't get a clear answer from them anyways.

eLeaf is a product. iSmoka is who you want to contact. Maybe you will get a reply from Winni here..

It's that time of year again...looking for a new device.

I have been very pleased with my original iStick, and have also purchased an eGoOne and am pleased with it as well. Much to my surprise my roommate reached out to me and said he wanted me to order him his own device similar to my iStick, so I thought I'd poke my head in here and see which of the newer versions seems to be the popular choice.

Current setup that he enjoyed when he tried it: original iStick, Nautilus mini.

I was considering opting for the GS Air for him, just to try it out but it appears the Nautilus mini is still very popular. So I am open to suggestions there as well.

Thanks!

Good mods: iStick 30, Heatwave Defender, Cool Fire 4.

I'm a big fan of Eleaf GS Air tanks and coils--the best and the least expensive tank on the market, IMHO. The newest GS Tank is getting rave reviews also. Better than Nautilus and even Kanger Aerotanks. Coils can easily be rebuilt. Great flavor and vapor production, adjustable airflow, long lasting. What's not to love?

I'm gonna reserve judgement on the iStick TC 40w until it's been out for awhile. The 50w scares me. I know there have been some issues with the 30w but it still seems like a good mod.

I'm hoping to win a Wismec Presa in the Heaven's Gifts contest but I'm not optimistic. I never win any drawings or sweepstakes.

I'm getting arthritis in my fingers and the firing switch on the Presa looks good to me.

    Based on some of the battery testing I've done, I can get approximately 2400mAh using the 6.85Wh rating for the iStick TC 40W battery. If the iStick battery had a slightly lower running voltage than the batteries I've tested then the capacity could be up in the 2600mAh range. But so much depends on the running voltage, cutoff voltage, and the shape of the discharge voltage curve.

    If PBusardo used a high voltage, 3.7V, for the average voltage then his capacity calculation result could be lower than it actually is. And I think he did use 3.7V because 6.85Wh / 3.7V = 1.85Ah.

    The 30w is a pretty safe bet.:2c:

    I agree with Katya - my favorite set up is the istick 30W with any GS-Air tank. I probably like the GS Air M and MS the best because of their easy airflow adjustment and capacity. Plus, both just look darn cute on the istick 30. :D

    Black iStick TC40W and Black eGo ONE Mega. THAT would be a winning combination for you.

    It would allow you to use either .15 ohm Ni200 coils, Kanthal coils (in .5 or 1 ohm configurations), or build your own using the CLR heads. And, you could share those coils (except the Ni200) with you eGo ONE.

    What's wrong with a light red 30w?
