Have had one for about a month now it is every day go device i also have a Vtr, istick and sigelie 100w just a great dependable easy to carry device. Sorry i don't have any pics at this time need to get some.

I'm debating between the jellyfish and the istick 50w, if the istick really can fire down to .2 then that will be my 1st choice mainly because of the size ( I want a small device ) when I purchased my SMOK bt50 they claimed it fired down to .2 but it barely fires anything under .5 it's great for anything that and above but I think I might hold out for the istick

Big difference in price between the two. I have heard good things about the Jelly, but the reality is as far as I know it is essentially a disposable unit and I can't see spending that much on a disposable. There might be a battery swap option for the Jelly though but I have not seen it listed anywhere.

No doubt the istick 50w will be a hot seller.

Picked up the Jellyfish today after playing with several similar mods (Sigelie, iPV, etc). The Atlantis tank you have is a very nice fit. So nice, in fact, I added a third Atlantis to the mix. Vaping it right now at 22.5W and it's very, very nice.

All in all, I really like the Lotus.

Does it seem to run higher than other mods? I have heard it does. Got any pics? Is there a place to send it to swap the batt out when it goes bad?

I've only had it for a day, but I find it runs much hotter than any mod I've owned. Many of which have been clones (so maybe a genuine mod would be different). I can't say it's bad, but much different. Vapor is very warm and there is almost no delay in the coil getting hot.

The biggest drawback for me is that this mod gives you a power range based on the resistance of the build. My kayfun has a .5 ohm coil and the power range I can set it to is 15w to 51w or 2.9v to 5.3v. I'd like to drop it below 15w to get a cooler vape but it does not seem possible to do. Maybe I'm missing something...?

Anyhow, it hits hard and after a full day of use the battery is only down to 69%

Ok, previous post is right about how it hits - hard and fast. That coil gets to temp like immediately, and it is a warmer vape. I certainly don't mind that at all. Turning it down to 15 equates roughly to my old setup - a silver bullet with an efest 18650.

It does indeed have a range dependent on the coil. With the Atlantis tanks (my read at .54-.56) that range is 15-50/51. The device itself goes 15-53, so I'm really not missing anything with the Atlantis. At 50, it does taste a bit burnt. Could be the juice, could be the coil, could be that ceramic paper everyone is in arms about. Personally, I'm happy at 20-25 with the Atlantis, depending on the juice.

Big downside and bad news: despite a USB micro charger, you have to use the one supplied. It's a 1A AC adapter, with a non-removable USB cable. They've switched the pin layout to nonstandard. I have a billion micro USB chargers ranging from .5A to 2.1A. None of them work at all. I'll likely cut up a USB and rewire it so I can charge via the USB plugs on my desktop at work.

Other big downside - no pass through.

Pics for now whilst I make coffee and try to find my hex set. Hopefully it's small enough.

(Hold for next post. Phone issues)

Upon closer inspection, charger is 9v and 1A. So much for using a standard 5v... That bums me out.

Thanks for sharing.

Interesting looking device but with the charger being what it is and no pass trough It sounds like a little bit of an oddball considering what is out there these days.

Depends, somewhat. I can agree, and trust me, I have my concerns. If the battery holds up, it may not be a big deal. Monday will be a good test for me. I'll leave the house at about 7am and get home at 9pm. If it can hold up for that, I'll be happy with an oddball charger.

What about charging it in a car?

Two full days of vaping. Yesterday was fairly lite with a lot of time in the kitchen. Closer to normal day today. Still roughly two hours of vaping to go, and still at 29%. . . and I haven't charged since yesterday.

I *really* Luke this Lotus, even if it has a few flaws (nonstandard charger, no pass through).

Thanks for the feedback and the pics. I have heard it hits like a beast, but my concern is if the batts are not easily serviceable then it is then essentially an expensive disposable. I look forward to hearing more about it as time goes on.
