Eleaf Istick

UPDATE: EleafUS now has the bending adapter listed for only $6.99!!

Storewide Black Friday sale continues until 12-02-2014, 30% OFF with code BFRIDAY.

Once I saw the bending adapter listed, I cast my lot for my second istick, this time in blue and picked up 2 bending adapters. The cost with included shipping was just under $48!

That's less than what I would have spent over @ Sweet Vapes for nearly the same items (SV has the full kit for less than EleafUS basic kit, but charges $3 more per adapter). And I got a free bottle of eliquid from EleafUS, and the peace of mind of ordering directly from the manufacturer just in case I have issues down the road.

I only ordered the bending adapters not the iSticks when at sweet-vapes. There are two vendors with that name by the way one being called SweetVapes and the dash is added at the other to avoid confusion between them. I got the first from smartvapes and the second when the first was out of stock showing how they fly off vendor shelves was at evape.us With all the deals over the last week you can still get them for $30.99 at another site.

At least you found them somewhere else since those were marked down from $12- at sweet-vapes for the pre-holiday discounts before they closed up until Cyber Monday.. They still havien't updated another item I have been waiting to hear about some are after.

It was the Wisconsin sweet-vapes that I was planning on ordering from. Then I read the fine print of their Black Friday sale, and any hardware sale under $75 was only a 5% discount. So it would have cost me $7 more there, even though EleafUS is selling their istick for more, they offered a larger discount and it all averaged out.

I'm just looking forward to having a spring-loaded 510 on the iStick ;)

That's alright! I paid $46 back in Sept for a Vamo V6 and then saw a link to Fast Tech for the same for $26.50! In the last few days I kept running into the V5s for under $20 since many places would show 10% 15% some higher % off everything or mark select items down a bit for Black Friday. It pays to shop around doesn't It?! :laugh:

I wish they had the case too. The 6$ shipping might be worthwhile. Heaven's gifts has it for $4.50. I don't really need/want anything else.

Any one having a problem using the Billow on a Eleaf IStick? Pin in or out, just get a "Atomizer Short" message. Works fine on the Provari and cheapo mech, Eleaf, not so much. Won't show ohms either. Runs the Kayfun fine. And tried pulling up on the 510 pin, also used the ego adapter.
Kayfun works just fine. Tried 2 different builds, 1.2 and 1.7.
 
Not cloned! Just being sold under a different brand name. The same is seen all along with Smoktech eGo batteries sold under Joyetech. Vendors will often request a different packaging for the same thing when placing large bulk orders. Some vendors have numerous retail outlets not just a web site to order from like Madvapes opening over 20 stores is one example. On the other hand when they know they have either a clone or replica that will usually be indicated in some way at least with the better vendors.

Now with Fast Tech they carry all brand names and simply listed what came in under one of the other brands likely being sold in some countries but not others. With the ZNA mod that was listed 8 times for six color for the 50watt and another pair for the 30w version not on the same page however. Each listing was for a different color sometimes at a different price depending what is selling the most of. If no one is buying something in green or blue but black and stainless or silver is flying off the shelves they mark the green and blue down a little to get them moving if not bumping things up a little on the others to keep those stocked up.

I was checking out eleafus website after seeing this and decided to look at their FAQ's. Some of their FAQ's include questions like "What is the cost of relocating my Comcast Cable account?" and the answer to that question talked about specs of the Nikon D300 camera. I don't think I want to trust ordering from a website that copies random stuff for their FAQ, lol. :facepalm:

I've ordered several things from them & their shipping was quick each time. On the other side of that coin I dont read FAQs- I dont see the point when I've already researched to death what it is I'm buying.

I have the strongest feeling that the manufacturer held off on just seeing one large selection of color choices in order to sell the others under a different brand. If you have too many color choices instead of the four when first seen only a few will sell while each vendor gets stocked up with the entire selection and left hanging where the prices end up being slashed just to clear the unsold out. This is a form of marketing strategy at work apparently.

It didn't come fully charged? :confused: Mine, as well as all the reviews I read/watched, were all charged up upon receipt.

It basically did but I'm one of those people that insists on a full first charge. The only thing That bugs me is that power button rattles. I have yet to actually give it a vape.
