I am about to buy a new one and my wife is on her second because we keep running into the same problem. They keep turning off and I have to click the button 5 times to get it to turn back on. Pretty annoying and I cant find a fix for it. I have looked around and I see it is a pretty huge problem. Is there a fix? Can anyone recommend another product that has the same hit/taste and plugs in? I absolutely hate having to switch batteries. Thanks
First time here Istick 50W Shuts off constantly

Hi @SiZZLESLAPs and welcome to the forum. Innokin makes an MVP PRO which is an internal battery mod. They are solidly built but not as near comfortable to hold as the iSticks as they are very square. Joytech Evic also makes an internal battery mod. Either of these will give you the same power as the iSticks.
I would suggest a trip to a local vape shop to check them out to see if thats what you are looking for, and to hold them in hand.

I have an iStick TC40W and I do know that it will shut off if you vape for more than 10 seconds. Can you explain how and when it shuts off in more detail? The information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

The "turn off" thing is probably a safety feature. There are several reasons why it might be happening. It probably can't be disabled, but if you can figure out why it's doing it, you can maybe avoid that conduct. Maybe not. My Snow Wolf turns itself all the way off after 15 or 20 minutes activity to conserve battery.
I just remembered that when I used my iStick 50's if I was chain vaping they would sometimes switch off (or inadvertent button pressing). It's annoying when you're doing something and not paying attention, but 5 clicks does turn it back on.
Yes, with the iStick you must press it 5 times consecutively to shut it off so not an accidental pressing of the button, % times fast or it will not shut off. I have tried to hit a 10 second vape many times but just too much cloud to generate for me.
I have three iStick 50Ws but only use them as backups these days. The 50W is definitely quirky. The shutoff problem is one I also have with mine and I don't know any way to stop it. Just 5-click it back on and continue vaping. Other than this problem and an occasional unexplained change in the wattage setting I really liked the iStick 50W, but have now moved on to higher wattage devices with replaceable batteries.
I would not recommend you buy any more iSticks. You are on your way to 4? 
You could choose something that works in the same way and have less worry about it's lasting and working.
Sigelei, Kanger, Innokin all make mods which do exactly the same thing and, well... are much better quality.

Larry this is exactly the same problem. I could have it plugged in all night and fully charged. Take a good hit and try again 1 in later and it is off again. Click 5 times take a hit then take another but can't it is off again. This never ever happened until about 6 months of ownership. The voltage and wattage change as well. For the people who have owned one, will understand what I mean.
I see that a new(er) itaste is out. I will check that one out as I did have to MVP 2.0 and liked it. Thanks to everyone who replied
