No I couldn't help myself and ordered a mini on Dec. 20. Don't know when it will take a slow boat ride from China but with 3 sticks not in a hurry. Just tired of fiddling with the 510 pins. ........

A little story about my eleaf. While visiting the in-laws yesterday, My father n law accidentally pushed my eleaf with the naught mini on it off the counter on to the tile floor.Noooooo I just bought that I'm screaming in my head, So I quickly picked the poor little guy off and quickly inspected the tank. Oh good it looks like it's all in tact no shattered glass on the floor, no crack. So out the door I went to test the vape (yes I do respect their house rules and vape outside
) few pushes of the button and I'm finding my sticky button is now more clicky. Thank you Dad n law for fixing my button....lol (But please be more careful not to drop my vape again...)
I guess you could call that "Positively Shocking"?
: Don't fret any since the Vamo Fire 20w APV that just came in lately has a sticky plus button and when you press it it likes to auto scroll through the entire wattage range until you hit the minus button to stop it! I took a pair of pliers and grabbed the button to work it a bit against the sides of the hole in the wooden body I thought it might be rubbing against. In your situation however you likely smeared just a little ejuice in there without realizing it and it simply gummed up a little until it fell and the impact shocked the button loose. And that why it would be so "Positively Shocking"! 
I am so glad to know I am not the only one! I browse, load up the cart and usually talk myself out of it before I actually checkout.
I'd be so broke if I didn't have the willpower. When I got into RC aircraft, I was constantly ordering upgrade parts and tools. I would get daily text messages from my wife that would say "Another package got delivered today...I think you might have a problem" [emoji1]

When I get to work and take out my 4 vaping devices everyday and set them on my counter, my co-worker tells me the same thing, "I think you have a problem"
I keep catching myself. I really don't NEED another device now. But unfortunately, I don't trust my iStick or Cloupor DNA30s (until I rebuild them). Many manufacturers are coming to market with new "Mini" devices. Some are more mini than others. Besides the Cloupor Mini, (BIG) iPv Mini and (Expensive) SX Mini; Sigelei and SMOK are putting new minis on the market.
The Sigelei has 30W & 50W "mini" devices upcoming. The 30W is 90mm x 36mm x 22mm, with 18650. I can't find many details on the 50-watter. But it looks bigger than the 30W. SMOK has two of their three new minis on their website: Xpro M22 (22W) & Xpro M50 (50W). A video has also shown an Xpro M36 (36W). All three SMOKS are 85mm x 38mm x 22mm. The M22 & M36 have built-in 1900 mAh LiPo batts. The M50 has an 18650. I haven't seen MSRP or wholesale prices yet on any of these.
Unless there's a death in my MOD family, I'll wait until all the new mini devices are in market with reviews & customer feedback. The iStick was my first "early adoption". I'll try to focus on mature products from now on. You know, like 2-3 months old.

The only time I put one or more things into a cart is to see what the total will be prior to the day I put the order in for something. I ran up the credit a bit upgrading things around here lately! 
Won't be buying much now for some time. So far everything ordered has been working out for what each is. That's a relief!

Non the less i have the 1.8 BVC coil in and i'm now figuring out where is good on it. It came with a full charge and man it really is tiny as hell...lol

I very much like your idea of waiting a couple of months to learn about some of these new products.
Here's a little blurb on the SMOK Xpro M22 - retail is $42.99:
Smoktech Mini XPro M22 Box Mod - IndianVapers.com
And it appears to be for sale (at a higher price - $65.99) here:
https://www.ave40.com/store/smok-xpro-m22-22w-mini-box-mod.html
The Smok M50 next to a 'Stick:
Oh and apparently next year ebay is banning e-cig sales... per a notice i got with my istick
Here's a bit of a list we might want to have for future reference, and of course everyone can add to it as new products hit the scene.

I can't find that M36 on the site, but dammit i spotted the pipe they have and now i want one...lol
Ya no I don't think I got ejuice in it unfortunately. After doing some searching, it's the button that is faulty. It's even crooked. And still sticking, I've tried everything to fix it. Just emailed the vendor. Also upon searching, It didn't even come in the box that has the lift off cover, When I got it the charger cable was separate in the envelope. I thought I was ordering from a supplier that says they are a registered supplier with ECF. (logo on front page of site) I hope they will work with me and replace or give me a store credit. Not sure I want another from them.

I edited my post, KTM.
For under $100, you forgot the Vaporshark DNA 30 for $99.99. (Free shipping so it squeaks in by a penny
)I thought this one was being discontinued?For under $100, you forgot the Vaporshark DNA 30 for $99.99. (Free shipping so it squeaks in by a penny
Nope. The just the rDNA 30 is being discontinued, AFAIK. There were requests to make a DNA 40 (small size) but VS posted a few times that they would be offering one because the battery life would be too short.
