All the spacer is is a tiny disk that sits down on the 510 pin. Makes the connection better on devices that don't have spring loaded pins

Circuit Board Spacer

It's removable. I don't take things apart, period lol. Not anything other than tanks, anyway.

Those are Too Cool.

Might have to pickup a few of those and put them in the "Just in Case" box in my Bottom Drawer.

BTW - Here is a Funny Review of those Circuit Board Spacers...

A bit pricey for what they are IMHO, but they are great for my e-power and ego. I am able to use all of my difficult atty and carto without needing to expose the positive center with a flat head anymore. All the devices that refused to make contact now do 99% of the time. (Posted on 10/29/2011)

Pricey? Ya Think?

89 Cents for a Drop-In Solution to get your Mod Going. Sounds like a Great Deal to Me.

LOL

I think there has been a price drop, but I think the comment was about the shipping, since it could go in an envelope with a stamp.
I've never bought them because I didn't need anything else to justify the shipping.

Wow! Although I imagine the battery life is considerably less. The battery life is one of the things that made me decide on the istick. Although it's going to take me a bit to get used to turning it way down. Seems like my juice is burning in a Clearo on anything more than 6w

Yeah... The Battery Life is about 1/2 of a Regular iStick.

But I don't need much Battery Life to drive to the Mall or go to the Post Office. And besides, I'm a Sucker for Small APV's. That and I got Burned on Fasttech and had to take a Gift Certificate on a return vs a Refund.

So I have an iStick mini on order from Fasttech. And it should arrive about the time that the iStick v3.0 comes out.

LOL

I love my 2 iSticks but have been paying close attention to the Joyetech eGrip thread for awhile. With the advent and good reports for the eGrip rba I ordered one each and received them Monday afternoon. Had some initial leaking problems but found some left over manufacturing contamination on the device/coil mating surface in the device and fixed that problem.

The eGrip is ~30% wider than the iStick but with a mini Nautilus on the iStick the eGrip with drip tip is ~2" shorter in height. It lacks any digital readout or numerically marked settings on the adjustment dial. Given that it provides in combination with the stock rba coil/wick an outstanding vape experience. The rba comes with 2 replacement coil/wick assemblies, a small screwdriver, a short length of kanthal wire, wick material and 2 replacement o-rings for the princely sum of ~$12.00 from Cignot.com., one of the most reputable vendors I know of.

I really like my iSticks but so far, despite the stated deficiencies imo, I absolutely love the eGrip with the rba! Bear in mind I already own Provari's including a P3, 2 Semovars and you name it.

With these new mini devices I'm rapidly getting over the huge tube mods when equipped with 18650 batteries. When these tube mods are configured with 18350's the battery life becomes too short.

What a long way things have come since I started nearly 5 years ago! To use a movie line "these are great days we're living bro!"
