Eleaf iStick "pico"

I like that! I may get a sleeve for mine. Where did you find that?

Finally got my pico today that I ordered way back in March from fasttech. Theorem looks pretty good on it while I wait for the Merlin to ship...

I wonder if the merlin is going to fit the pico being a 23mm atty. My alleria (23mm) doesn't fit but its knurlings at the base for AFC slightly protrudes.

Thanks! I just did a FT order but didn't see those, darn! I like the Pico but I think the sleeve would help as I actually find it a little hard to hold.

I used the Pico for several days without a sleeve. Adding one improved the experience. Fasttech has camo skins for the Pico. WIth the FDA pursuing us may be some extra stealth is called for. How about a skin that absorbs radar?

I think 22mm is the max. I can barely get a slip ring in the space because it compresses to fit.

Camo may be a start but radar absorbing is probably the way to go! With FDA regs... We're going to need true stealth vaping!

I thought so too

The 23 mm billow v3 fits on the pico. I'm crossing my fingers that the 22.8 mm merlin fits. If it doesn't, oh well.

So I finally have time to try out the Bachelor nano and I want to use it on my Pico! I have never uses a coil under 1.8 and the Bachelor has a pre installed .5 coil. Any idea where I should set the wattage on my Pico?

If its anything like the full size bachelor, I'd start at 20 watts and move up from there. I run mine with a .65 ohm Clapton coil at 27 watts. I think most people run between 20 and 40 watts.

Lower ohm coils turn power into heat less efficiently than higher ohm coils so you'll be using more power. Also the mod migh not be able to fire a lower ohm coil below some minimum watts. In watts mode try 10 watts and observe the vapor production. Then try 20 watts and see if there is any difference. It's possible the mod won't fire the .5 ohm coil below about 20 watts. I do only temp control and use the highest ohm single coils the mod will allow for the sake of battery efficiency.

Was surprised but you're right it does. Pic attached. But the bottom airflow ring does rub slightly against the battery cap while screwing it in. The AFC is adjustable (no rub), however, when fully attached. I think any 23mm tank with anything protruding in the bottom will not fit ie: Alleria.

Pauly Meatballs review of the pico is where I saw it first. I do have a billow v3 but I haven't bothered to try it for myself.

the tank and mod was sitting 2 feet from me and since I knew the alleria (23mm) didn't fit I had to test it out and was pleasantly surprised. It does look a bit funky tho, the tank being as long as the mod.

I like this one...

Pretty interesting review article on Pico Kit:

iStick Pico by eLeaf - A Review - Spinfuel The Art of Vaping

The 30Q is rated at 15 amps, but Pooch rates it at 20 amps. I guess it's OK, unless that is a typo ...

The LG-HG2 and Samsung-30Q are both 3000mAh...

and...the HG2 and 30Q (when tested by Mooch) both have an actual CDR of 20A...

BUT...the MCA of the HG2 is 20A vs. a MCA of the 30Q of 25A...

I believe Sweet-Vapes in the USA has them. For a little more of course. I think it's $3.95 with shipping.
