Eleaf iStick "pico"

[trentenmarschel]

i saw something this w/e that said to always click 'no'........tell you the truth i click whatever after awhile

my 2 neboxs are acting up again,, my 2 topboxes do sometimes. i am looking at a cupti by kangertech,, but only 1 and only on a good sale.

I had some of the DNA75 box mods bookmarked one was only like 50 something bucks. I just went to check it out and that site was sold out. I will not buy one for over $70. Not knowing that another site had them listed for $50. I'll wait and hopefully pick one up for a good deal. Isn't black Friday coming up sometime soon and then the cyber Monday sales?

Oddly, I locked the resistance again and it is still working at 310F but the flavor is tasting great. So I'll just keep my fingers crossed that nothing changes.

None are perfect. I bought 4 SMY SDNA75's (a Chinese company using USA Evolv DNA75 board) My silver one barely used went into STUCK mode, buttons don't work, display ON, etc.

Reason I'm writing this to you, is although I got a few of these from Fastech, (I no longer buy mods directly from China), I wrote Evolv, they did not ask where I bought it, said to return it and they would replace the board. That's the MAIN advantage of a DNA mod. Unlike my 4 Pico's, when they go bad, most likely beyond whatever the small return time a vendor may offer, they will be garbage. I could only imagine the fun dealing directly with Eleaf in China would be like.

Good luck on your next choice!

Agree, that's one reason I hate ordering from China. I would not order any actual mod from them. I'm still waiting for my notch coils and a gs tank from FastTech. Plus I've heard something about e-cig mods from China not making it through customs and border protection.

I ordered a Serpent Mini from GB 32 days ago and still haven't seen it. It was listed at customs on the 22nd of last month. When I talk to GB they say it can take 25 "work" days or more, but I'm beginning to wonder. I had another order from them for drip tips. I ordered it a couple of days after the missing order and that got here over 2 weeks ago. I think this might be the last time.

GB is the absolute worst of all the Chinese suppliers.

On my last FT order CS sent me a message stating that DHL Global mail had issues with shipping. They had switched my order over to the faster ePacket and gave me a new tracking number.

GB just tells you to "Wait another month, you send message and we look for order..."

 

[Ed_C]

Yeah, I've made a couple of orders with FT and it's been pretty quick, like 2 weeks. I would use them again.

Some of you may recall my GB experience, batteryless mod held by NPost, supposedly destroyed, no other info, NO MONEY BACK! Held my ground, various threatening emails and I got a full refund. No more Gear Best/Worse for me!!!

 

[Ed_C]

How did you find out it was held and destroyed? How long did you wait till you reacted?

If anyone wants to read the details, this link I believe was the first one, a few more as the thread developed.

I think I've figured out why my Pico slips out of TC mode to watts mode and others aren't reporting the same problem. The switch from TC to watts mode often happens when I'm redripping. (I use strictly rda's while most everybody else is using tanks.) I suspect that if the wire is hot when I do that and the fresh liquid cools it down too fast the control board notices that and flips to watts mode for safety. Sometimes it goes for days without slipping out of TC mode. Other times it's hard to get it to switch back. It may be a combination of the internal temperature of the mod and the resistance of the coil and may be the mod is waiting for some sort of equilibreum to return before staying in temp mode. May be if you use a tank you don't run into this issue. It doesn't happen with my VTC mini.

Question. Eleaf Pico with Melo 3 tank
1. Is it worth it
2. MTL suitable? I do not DL hit.
3. Coils I read are junk. Any alternative coils, suggestions?

Thanks

The Pico is a great little mod, don't have the Melo 3 though. From my understanding it can use coils for many different tanks.

I really like the Melo 3. It is one of my favorite tanks.

1. Yes Pico and no Melo III
2. Not to me, to airy for MTL IMHO
3. Yes the coils have a lot to be desired. I rebuilt one and it is better, but still not a fan of the Melo III.

If I had it to do over, I would not have gotten the kit, just the Pico, which I like. YMMV & JMHO

So what are people using for tanks? I'm getting rid of my RX200 and getting something different. The main reason is the damn tanks. I have a limitless, I have a Uwell crown, I've had TFV4, TFV8, they all suck and they all leak. I'm also not a DL guy. My POFS Ileaf stick and nautilis aspire are more reliable. But looking for a new mod, and I like the size of this thing, the PICO, but want a tank with some bigger capacity and the reliability and flavor of the Aspire mini tank.

I currently have a Nautilus on mine. Good MTL tank and Good Flavor. When you get something that works, why keep looking.




Yes, I know I keep buying also But a lot of it just collects dust because what I use everyday just works better, has better flavor, etc.
