Love them; comfortable to use and super dependable, in my experience. My husband will be sad when our 20s finally die. I haven't bought any more just because of the internal batteries (for most iSticks). But if it turns out we can still get them for reasonable prices after TPD sets in, I'll pick up some more because they're small and lighter than an external battery mod, can be easily charged without carrying around batteries and charger when away, and just very comfortable and easy for him to carry around. Also, the price point means if one gets lost, it's not a tragedy.
My 20w was junk (510 connector issues). Loved the Mini 10w until my Vape style moved beyond its power range. Currently using 3 Picos, flawless functionality in TC with SS coils. The 60w is highly touted for hand feel and function, I'm tempted but just don't need another mod.
My 100 (non-TC) is still going strong after 2 years. iSticks are simple no frills cheap essentially disposable power devices. My only criticism of the 100 is it is quite bulky, and it shreds battery wraps.
I personally think the iStick is a well made product. I have most of the line and use three different iSticks in my daily rotation.
<Chortle>My iStick just broke. The positive 510 pin just broke away from the surrounding insulator. Additionally the post connected to the negative part of the 510 inside just sheared off. Two years use for $21, I'm OK with that.
Hey ho.
Hey ho.
My first MOD was an iStick TC40W and it is still going strong over 2 years later. I have even done some research into changing out the internal battery a while ago because it has been so dependable.
I almost exclusively use a Pico because of form factor. I also have a Pico Mega, Evic Basic and VTC mini which get used occaisionally. A brother of mine is still using his 2 1/2 year old iStick 20w. I've heard iStick and Evic lines belong too one company.
I have used Many eLeaf Mods over the years. I have been Very Happy with them.
The iStick 40w TC, the Pico and the Pico Squeeze are some of my Favorite Mods. Nice Compact Mods with Good Quality and a Very Reasonable Price.
Between the wife (W) and I (M):
(W)Mini iStick, got it too late to be useful.. even separate board wasn't able to do anything to the coils we use now.
(M+W)iStick 30's, just retired two, one was repair with a separate board.
(M) iStick TC60W, still going strong
(M+W) iStick Pico's - Loving them! With the exception of connection issues due to the 510 connector, these have been great. Using a "washer" made from a plastic card solved the connector issue. (W) is bugging me for a rainbow version
. I have two separate boards that I'm setting into box mods now.

What kind did you get?
I've always used iSticks, I also love them. My 30W just passed its 2-year birthday and is still chugging along, doing great.
My iStick 60W TC was the only one I had trouble with, it was great while it lasted but simply stopped firing after about 8 months.
I have a non-TC 100W that's nice, but agreed it is bulky and shreds wrappers.
Have three Picos that I absolutely love.
They are good devices, period. They are GREAT devices for the price point. IMO.

which one did you get?
I love my istick
I got the 20w when it first came out and was in love gave it to a coworker and upgraded to the 30w when it came out, it's on it's slow death now of not holding charge, the only reason i had to get a new mod....i won the icare in a giveaway, it's a nice little mod but I don't care for it....just no real power in it, but good for someone switching from smoking to vaping.....

I followed the link. The text hasn't been updated since the iStick 20 was launched. I wonder how old the inventory is and how depleted the batteries might be from sitting on the shelf.
Well, my 20 I have to use the adapter on because of the threads, so I grabbed a 30. Very nice looking and the finish held up well, but the button got soft. Got the 40. Finish held up poorly and the battery didn't last the yr. (everyday use, not unhappy).
SOoo, since I like my Aspire Nautilus so much, I just grabbed a Aspire Zelos. Kewl looking and a few more mah on the battery. Supposedly. And USB on side.
Long live the 30W iStick!!!
