Looking to upgrade. Should I buy two isticks?

Since all devices you plug into a PC will charge while hooked up it makes me curious as to why so many say they do not recommend it. If you hook up a mod to do a software update it will be charging and you can't stop it.

I haven't ordered yet, but I think I will now. Thanks a lot for this. Looks like this is the place I'll be ordering from. Those are some great deals.

I think I'm going with the 40 watt istick. Probably will order two of them, a nautilus, and some extra coils. Probably an eleaf wall charger too since it doesn't look like they come with one.

You're welcome! RMV is a great company to deal with, IMO. Been buying from them for awhile now, and have always been a satisfied customer. Looks like you're set!

I think it is Always Better to use a decent Wall Wart verses using a Computer USB Port to do Charging.

In a Pinch or in an Emergency, sure, I'd do it. But for D2D Charging, I'd go with a Wall Wart.

100% agree!

If you have to charge from a laptop, have it plugged in so it's not battery to battery. Still not a good idea tho.

I did that and all the 5-10$ overheated/malfunctioned and are in the trash. Then I got these and am very happy.

Those two are 2.4 amp chargers. The isticks are supposed to charge at 1 amp. That's not an issue and considered safe? Do the isticks only pull the charge they're supposed to be charged at?

Correct. And the chargers that I posted are also IQ enabled.

I got in late on this thread but the iStick 30 is a great choice and Rocky Mountain Vapor is my number one go to company!
You can't go wrong!

Great, thanks. Just ordered the one with two ports. I'll use that for the istick and my samsung phone.

Got my package today and realized the batteries didn't come with a micro usb. My fault.

Something like this is fine for the 30 watt istick, right?

That should work Fine.

You might also ask your Friends/Family/Co-Workers/Neighbors if anyone has a Spare USB Cable. I must have about 30 of those Cables laying around in Drawers or Boxes or have fallen behind my Desk.

I actually just found some extras i had laying around from the samsung phones i've had over the years. Those are fine to use? Basically all micro usb's are fine?

Yeah... They should be Fine.

There are a Very Few USB Cable that have Non-Standard Pin-Outs to handle Data. But the Power Pin-Out is Always the same.
