I'd love to know that info, IMRs. At first thought-glance, I had "Microstick" or even "Janty Stick" in mind. I also thought it might be a competitive play to innokin's stick shaped iTazte V3s.

Meanwhile, until you get the answer, join me?

:pop:
:laugh: I'm still waiting and running out of popcorn while waiting. :pop:The answer is taking forever Kat! :pop:

:rolleyes:

Have a safe shutdown, and make some overtime.:)
7 12's = 84 hrs so at least 44 hrs overtime maybe more. Plenty of rest is necessary to stay focused, have to work with the cell phone addicted young ones.:)
If your doing what I think you're doing......I do know.......:p

Welding inside an industrial boiler?

Regardless, be safe....hope you have enough energy left at the end of the day(s) to stop back in here.
You know. :) I usually end up everywhere, preheats, economizer, water wall, baghouse, wet bottom, anhydrous ammonia skid, any where there is pipe or tubes. I'm gonna try to check in with my tablet. Wife has claimed my laptop. :)
I think Bike said he was working the baghouse this shut down. Pretty hard nasty stuff!
Sounds like you know. :)All of it's nasty with fly ash everywhere. Could be gone for several weeks. Waitin on vape mail before I leave, gotta have my juice :)

I do know brother, was a E&I that helped build a couple of coal fired boilers as a younger man. To get extra overtime I would volunteer for for shut down maintence, and have had my FILL of flyash! The money was good though :)

I have to do a little E&I at times even though it's not authorized. I don't think they should let just any welder or fitter do some of the stuff we do. It's all tested prior to firin the boiler but mistakes can happen with consequences even during tests. :)

Yeah I used to work with some guys who would beg a welder, operator, helper anyone to do some pitot tube or inside stuff rather than crawl in there. I used to love hanging suspended in the fire box :)

(for those wondering E&I is not eating and intoxicated it is Electronics & Instrumentation) :p

As long as you can make good money, Vape, and stay safe, that's all that really matters.......:)

I jumped on the istick madness and ordered two 30w's, one for hubby and one for me. I love the way it fits so snugly in my palm! However, we had a problem with one of them. :( We haven't decided what tank (if any) we want to buy to go on it so while we're waiting, we just popped on our faithful 510 attys (regular 2.2 resistance). Vaped like dreams at first, until hubby's starting shooting up to 30 watts all by itself. He adjusted it back down to 9 watts and two or three puffs later it was back up to 30 again. It even fought with us at times when we tried to bring the watts back down by going right back up. This morning it started locking and unlocking by itself, even when it wasn't being used and wouldn't shut off. Then the screening started flipping on its own. Now it's stuck on 5 watts and won't go up. Has anyone had this problem??? The other one works like a charm. The bad one registered the atty at 2.2, which is correct. We've been vaping for 5 years but this is our first box mod and just wondering if there's anything we can do or might have done wrong???? Are these devices not geared to handle a simple old school 510 atty? I'm confused!

Lynda, if it's still under warranty, I'd contact the seller and ask for a replacement. For your own peace of mind and also to let the manufacturer know that there is a problem.

If that's not feasible, try those reset methods suggested above.

Just my :2c:

Everyone has already given you every option to try if the iStick is salvageable, so I will just add...

After his dire trials on his 50W, Busardo knocked off it, plain dead, no screen after all, but successfully reset it to full working status just plugging the USB charger.

It might be worthwhile to shut it off and plug the charger, if you haven't done it yet...

Tapatalking..Mind those lampposts!
I wish I could have tried that but I couldn't get it to turn off. I shipped it back to the vendor today and they are sending a replacement. I guess I can't complain because during the 5 years of my vaping tenure, this is the first time I've had a problem with a new battery, or old one for that matter. Looking forward to getting the replacement. :)

You did the right thing. :)

Good luck!

It's definitely under warranty. We got it Tuesday afternoon and it freaked out Tuesday night. Wednesday morning it locked on 5 watts, the screen started flipping and it went from lock to unlock every few seconds. I hope it makes a safe trip back. I hated mailing a battery that wouldn't shut down, especially with it doing weird things. :/

Sounds like a coal power plant. I work at one too so all of this sounds very familiar. :)

Geez... I hope so too. :facepalm:

But if we don't let them know that there are problems, they'll never fix them.
