Here's pics of the istick sleeves I got from MadTownVapors. They're soft, flexible but hubby says they will attract fuzzies.

any1 notice on the 30watt istick that the 1st half of battery level lasts longer than the last half

Yup, makes sense, if you're vaping anything over about 3.7 volts as the battery drains, it will use additional amperage to boost the voltage. On a full battery much less boost is needed....there ain't no such thing as a free lunch...the power has to come from somewhere...:vapor:

Seems unfair to us slow learners...took me a month after quitting to find ECF, and another couple of months to register..:(
July 17 will always be the day my life changed for me....:)

Same here Stosh, I lurked or as my wife sez loomed over the threads for a while prior to joining. Needed to make sure everyone here was as crazy as me, before associating with them :)

I quit in April and didn't join ecf until Sept! You can celebrate both dates SUSAZ

Same here. I started vaping in December of 2009, joined the forum in February 2010. :)

Celebrations are good--the more the better!

Yup.

As soon as the battery charge falls below 3.7, the decline is fast. Happens with all Li-Ion batteries.

    That's possibly because it's really the last 1/4. I barely use half and I vape 6-8ml@7.5W daily. No way that's only 1100mAh.

    Cool thing is I only charge this @.5 and it only takes an hr. and a 1/2- Used to have to charge three 650 egos at a Much longer time.

    It's the discharge characteristics of the Li-Po battery. The "gauge" display is based on the current voltage of the battery. The battery holds voltage longer from 4.2V to 3.7. Below 3.7V, it drops voltage much faster.
     
    Just got a 30W a couple hours ago, and I have a performance question....
    I started vaping on it with an Atlantis, airway 3/4 open, lowered to 25 watts. Planning on switching over to Protank 3 in a little while, just to see how the iStick performs with a different tank attached. Any recommended setting changes? (airway/voltage/wattage)
