Hi all, how are ye all doing. I'm new to vaping, gave up smoking two months back. Im really enjoying vaping so far, my only problem is I have a Provog Azure, which is pretty poor, always leaks and gets very hot. I think its time to upgrade!!! I'm thinking of getting an eleaf istick or something similar. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!

Yes... an upgrade is a must. 
Welcome to ECF. I have a family of iSticks. They're great little mods. Totally short-term,but who cares? The 30w has been the best.

Hi, thanks for the welcome. I'm definitely gonna go with the istick, can I ask what tank you would recommend for it? (as a newbie, I'm fairly clueless,tbh!!)
Hello & welcome @Irishvaper
I agree that the iStick is really worth going for. The type of tank to go with it will depend on which wattage version you go for. I use an early edition 20w iStick & use a Kanger Aerotank with it.

In order of preference, I use.
1. Mini Nautilus
2. Kanger subtank Nano.
3. Kayfuns (20w) and Drippers (30w).

Hi, thanks for the advice. I think I will go ahead and other the istick 30w. The provog I have is terrible!!! I have just put new atomisers in it today, and both are burnt out already!! Has anyone ever used one? They are the long (pen?) type.
Not used one, no. Looking at it is giving me shivers though. I guess if was cheap, nothing lost.
The trouble with the e-cig world is out of date junk for mega money. Things move on and some companies just sit there flogging a dead horse to pay the mortgage and bump up the pension pot. Most UK e-cig companies (the brands) are way behind in the tech race and spend all their time making out they are 'all that' on social media and fake websites.
Just look at VIP, Cirro, Apollo... it's all way too expensive, not very good and blatantly about their profits over customer satisfaction. And let's not even talk about Blu, which is just a travesty. It's taken even Joyetech (one of the biggest) ages to work out where they were going wrong. Eleaf was part of that self-improvement drive. Joyetech are a good brand. They are made better and more successful by pitching the products much cheaper (compared to the others) than they used to.
Brands are often bad news. UK brands are all bad news. The only decent stuff is on sale through independent vaping shops.
Oh... you should be able to get an iStick for £30. My last one was £17 from China. I have a 40w on the way, that was about £18.
Thanks for the advice, I really appreciate it. The going price for the istick 30w here looks like €45, so I'm gonna go for it. I always knew the provog was bad, but I went to Vapefest Ireland last week and tried a few mods and tanks, with some serious flavours, and they blew me away!!! The difference can't even be described!!!
