This is appealing to me LOL~ if it was 99c i would buy it :3 it better not be some weird price. After all it's a silicone case -_-
You may be hard-pressed to find any for sale anywhere! Seems they do a leather one too: iStick leather case
I can see how these will be useful for people who take them out with them frequently.

Ha-ha! I work at home, so it's rare I'd take one out with me anyway. They tend to sit on my desk ...or in my hand too often! :rolleyes: I've got a mini istick coming that will fit neatly in a pocket to take out and about.

I think what it is trish, it`s because FT have a 45 day return warranty so they don`t issue the rebate points, till that time has lapsed ( in case you send any thing back ) within that 45 days. :)
Ah! Yes, that makes sense :thumb:
Glad to see you got the Lemo sussed! ;)

In other news, they refunded my postage today £12.45 no quibbles, and say they will refund the cost of the Hana when they receive it back :)

Now ... I have finally nailed these Lemo`s :laugh: I have been following a thread over the pond regarding the best way to build them etc, and one thing i found out was that the little buggers Prefer low ohms and high watts ! I had built all mine @ 1.8, and they just weren`t delivering the way i like my tanks to.

Sooo, anyways, i re-coiled the first on with 9/8 wraps of 28 ga @ 2mm for 1.4, Test fired and tweaked, till i got it glowing nice, fitted a rayon wick, Fluffed the tail ends, and stuck them to the pos/neg block, leaving the juice channels clear.

Primed and test fired again, with great results :) Filled up with apple strudel, couple of dry pulls, onto an i stick @ 15 watts, and :rickroll: Bleeding fantastic vape ! I set the AFC to a nice tightish draw, and it really does blow everything i have ever used before away, for clouds and flavour :laugh:

So i did three more at exactly the same way, and all four are really rocking now, i am one happy chappy right now :D

On mine I aim for the same as the pre-built 1.15 - 1.2 and vape at 25w normally.

Here is the details of the rebate points, it's under your name|rebate points then click on "click to expand"
in order to convert them you have to wait until you get at least 10 points = $10 then just open a ticket asking for them to be converted and how much:
Thanks Bob! :) I clicked 'expand' and see
Active Points 0.22 Pending Points 3.95
So really, 3.95 points is a long way from 10! :laugh:

You should have received a Gift Certificate for that on or about 10/10/2014 as per what I quoted above, so check if you have any Gift Certificates under the your name menu.
All I have (apart from my refund from today showing as a GC) is this one:
Expiry 12/6/2014 Value $2.80: Available: $2.80 Message: Points redeemed

I totally understand Trish haha! It's nice to be sitting on the desk vaping and not worry about damaging the mod. I however go out a lot :( And i love my mods i dont like to destroy them. I scratched my Hana pretty bad that i had to go get a wrap for it :( (Im not a really tidy person when it comes to my lady bag haha. Everything rolls around in my bag >.<)

Mmmhhmm them isticks are sure small and easy to go about. When im at work i chuck all my mods (hoping they are charged and enough for me to vape on) in my bag. My bag gets heavy.. Imagine having 2 box mods in the bag LOL. It really makes a bag heavy and i have been having shoulder aches lately :( Well its not just my vape equipment to blame, i also have a large phone and a large purse to go with it LOL. Also another reason i ordered the istick was because of the battery life everyone is raving about.. Just a few more days~! Hope it gets here soon...

That's the one, don't you remember us all talking about the small amount gift certificates that we got and that we had better spend them quickly - the date is in US format Dec 6th, the 10¢ extra must have been something else you bought that was added between Aug and October 10th.

I remember well the days I had a bag that looking back, seemed to contain everything I'd need for a national disaster! :laugh: Now I pop a few things in a pocket or small bag and off I go! I even have a few disposable e-cigs that I can stick in a jeans pocket in case I'm out longer than expected and start to panic! :lol:
It was very liberating swapping elegant heels and business suits for jeans and flats! :)

If anything, I'm too careful with things.
I do think you'll be pleased with the iStick though :)

Well at least it has arrived at your local office Eva.

I have one box mod stuck at Heathrow since 20/12 and another since 23/12, think the beggars must be having the whole week off, and things are just piling up, no post today and no post tomorrow, don't suppose I will see anything before next week now.

I'd seen them but thought they perhaps automatically converted at some point after a phenomenal amount had been spent :rolleyes:

I'm not going to lose any sleep over small amounts - I'll keep an eye on them and see what happens :laugh: The prices at FT are so good on a lot of things, I'm happy anyway.

Yeh, keep an eye on them and if they go above 10 then open a ticket to get them converted to a GC they don't do it automatically you have to ask.

I have various different ones, but seem to have stuck with the 2 mini Nautilus and 6 MOW's over the past few months - the MOW makes a decent lower price option (I have a number of standard size and two mega size).
All are used on iSticks and the iPow batteries when iSticks are charging :)

Two mows on order one from epack and one from fastech whats the best coils to get

I've only had 2 builds on mine so far. The one it comes with that creates that monster throat hit and the popping, and a nickel build for the dna 40.

I reckon with that much airflow it would be fine with kanthal builds down to 0.4 ohms or so, probably not super sub ohm. I think the wire it comes with is 26ga so you could make a 3mm coil all nicely squeezed together and it would be sub ohm probably. See what steam engine says.

I prefer using the wattage as low as I can so always get the genuine 1.8ohm V2's or the FT ones at 2.0ohms. There's still some 2.0ohm to be had from when Kanger did them though, but if you like higher wattage, then 1.8 or 1.5 (1.2 also) unless you like the sub-ohm ones. The MOW can go down to 1.0 or 0.8ohm V2's.
I think most new ones come with a 1.5ohm fitted.

There doesn't seen to be anything much to choose from between the genuine from online stores and FT, nor the 'type' from FT.
Now and then there's a bad one just like any other. I did have one bad pack of 5 genuine ones a few months ago, but it seems to happen now and then with coils.
I buy the genuine ones here at MyEpack too, and have one on the way from FT that's a 'type'.

Shop around if buying coils in the UK - you'll find them at 1.99 each or cheaper for 5.
You'll find them referred to as V2 or 'upgraded' dual coils. They fit Aerotank, Protank3, Evod 2, T3D, Evod Glass & MOW (which is one of the Aerotank range).

I still have a full sized one un-built yet, so i may try a ,5 ohm in that one adam, and stick it on one of my box mods :)
