I ordered one on the 20th and received it in a timely manner as well. The nautilus Mini I bought on the 21st is out for delivery today.
That was showing as in stock when I ordered on the 22nd as well. Glad I didn't bite. So they were obviously fraudulent in there # for sale, or they would have simply sold out and we would have bought from another vendor. That's too bad. I've been buying and selling on ebay since 2000, and this is only the second time I have had a problem.

Got 2 more in the mail today from Smoke Evolution. Blue one for the wifey and another black one for me. She loves the blue for sure, now maybe she will leave mine alone.

Best part though was the little pack of gummy bears that came in the box from Smoke Evolution. they were magically delicious!

Just to be clear, I don't have a problem with this vendor. I ordered; stuff was shipped. No problem.

I'm just hoping the form factor is what I've been waiting for. I never bought mods because they were huge and overpriced. Nobody made a small 18650 so I stuck with Nicosticks until I finally bought an ego. Hell, I probably still have some 3.4 ohm atomizers around here. Maybe they should look at a model without the VV. I just want the small size and batt life. It's not a hobby anymore.

It was a Nice Touch wasn't it.

Gummy Bears are an Endangered Species in my House. And Don't Least Very Long.

Reading back, I see that the iStick doesn't let you lock in your settings (minor flaw. With a few devices I've had that do that, I sometimes accidentally change it to 6.0.)

Does it have a way to turn it off such as the 5 quick hits?

Yes.. Yes it Does.

Yes. 5 click on and off. Keeps last setting too.

busardo has a short video on pulling an atty post/pin. Very useful info.

I think you are Going to Love the Size and Shape of the iStick.

Still enjoying my iStick also, however, ran into an issue this morning...

It seems to not be compatible with the E-Smart 510 BCC Clearomizers? I tried one this morning and it just kept saying "no atomizer". I tried a second one to make sure it wasn't just a faulty one, and same thing.

Anyone run into anything similar? The small BCC tank would be a nice fit on the iStick... if it worked...
Yes. Also with a cheap tank. The Smok GBC.

It seems the iStick's center conductor is a tad low. I got the "no atomizer" message. All I can figure is the iStick is at fault, since this tank works on other bats.

I simply took the 510 adapter that came with the iStick, cause it also has the 510 female up top. Along with a curved beauty ring, and I'm vaping away. I like this better, cause the beauty ring makes a nice grip for my index finger as I'm hitting it button down with my thumb.

Yea yea yea, I know. It lifts the tank by about 12 or 13 mm. But it works.

And day 2 and I have NO regrets! (I was one of the lucky ones who got the delivery from that suspect ebayer.)

I've found the button placement and function good and a lock not needed.

A question for those of you who have charged the battery. Does the batt indicator stay on while charging? Does it flash or anything when it reaches a full charge? I could try it I suppose, but I still have over a half of battery left, and I don't want to put it down long enough yet to find out. :)

I can't believe the battery on this thing. I'm using a 30g kanthal 1.5ohm coil at 11 watts, and I've vaped 3/4 of a tank in my KFL+ on the charge that was on it out of the box. I still have 3/4 battery life left. :) I love the size and shape. It fits so nicely in my hand without the sharp edges of most box mods and it hits just as hard as all my other mods.

The battery indicator stays on and alternates between the amount of battery remaining and a lighting symbol. I believe it goes off once fully charged.

I do have to give Smoke Evolution a big thumbs up. I had some on preorder with them before doing the group buy with a few others from Vapor Tek. I emailed to cancel my order at SE around 9PM the evening that we placed the order with VT. I not only had a reply but also my credit within 15 minutes. Excellent customer service IMO :thumb:
