No that person has not used RDAS obviously. Some RDAs or worse than others like the Plume Veil. When you drip with it juice is likely to get everywhere lol
When my Istick 50 first started auto firing I went the next day and got a Smok M80 XPRO Plus also. I love it. It's leaps and bounds better to me. I've started using nickel coils so I can use the temp control and no more dry hits lol
I have been looking at that one....sounds good to me!
BTW you don't need nickel coils with the xpro m80 plus. Because of the way the temp control on this unit works, there is no difference between Kanthal coils and Nickel coils regarding the temp mode. This is because this chip is not actually reading temps from the coil but using an algorithm to adjust wattages to maintain a level of what is set. I think this is actually a good selling point for this unit in that it doesn't require nickel coils for the temp mode to work.

Dang you're right lol thanks for telling me. I can't believe I never tried that
You're welcome. Seems a lot of people automatically think you have to switch to nickel builds for temp control. While it's true for some, not so with this one. I've also found for short 1-2 sec pulls, wattage mode works better. Temp control shines on the long pulls.

Yes I had someone tell me they had to be nickel when I bought mine. I will let the shop know.
Thanks for the tips guys! I haven't had a temp controlled unit as of yet! Sounds like a new one will be a part of my collection soon!
Honestly I love my XPro M80 but if i had the money I would get a mod with eternal batteries. I bought the XPro because I needed a quick replacement for my faulty Istick and I didn't have the money to buy a mod plus batteries and a charger. I think external batteries are just safer because their safe chemistry. I only learned this after researching my Istick problem. But when the internal batteries go into thermal runaway they're more likely to flame and or explode. Also I think the external bat mods should last longer where as the internal ones are basically disposable. Once the internal batteries are messing up it's time to throw it out. But with all that I genuinely love this XPro lol
Ok, I had that button sticking thing happen last night! That's just dangerous! I didn't realize it at first, except that it was HOT! It wouldn't stop firing and I burnt myself trying to get the tank off before anything worse took place. I am done with these units, two out of three is no coincidence!
This company needs to do more testing and fix this problem!!

I still haven't heard back from them about replacing mine. Which I don't want another Istick unless it's completely revamped and reliable. And I seriously doubt that will happen anytime soon
Ok i have never owned a istike 50 but have friends and family that do every one i know that has used a dripper has had problems after asking around i was told the juice gets inside and shorts the mod out till to day i said ok well got chance to open one up what i found made me mad like i said never spent one cent on i stike first off the inside of the mod was dry as a bone the mod would not stop fireing onece it did finaly fire the batteries were charged ok but the wires they use in these mods that say .2 ohms 50 watts look like the ones in one of my first ego battery u know max out put mabe 10 watts that may be why the b + coming from the batterys melted to a pin on the board putting a hole new meaning to the fraze unlimited becouse it by passed the saftys built in to the mod i am going to post some pic see for yourself and then ask your self if that looks heavy enough to handle sub ohm vaping
i wish i would have placed one of my .4 coils next to the wires ok now good news once i pulled the shorted wire from the board the mod came back to life to see if the cut off was still working slaped my .2 driper on it backed the watts down to ten and held the fire button around 10 seconds watts it stop fireing and gave over fire or something like it should then bumed it up to 36 watts vaped good but ever wire in it was hot real hot i look and say to my self no dam wounder wires are way to light to carry any thing like 30 never mind any thing else just wanted to pass this on thats a tooth pick in the pic holding the ground up i did not relize that the pics on this site zoom you can see real good were the red wire melted black and were it hit the borad auto fire yep

this might help to put actual size of everything sorry i can not take good pics
Thanks. I opened mine and it was dry too! So, that was not the problem from dripping! I might see if someone can repair it at some point! Vapor DNA was more than happy to send me something to replace both of mine! The customer service at this establishment is outstanding!
I'd recommend the Atlantis on the 50. Been workin like a charm for the last month, seems to have 0 problems ;p
Running a 50w and Nautilus between 10w and 17.5w . I get 3 to 4 days on the battery with no issues. I dropped it out of my side pocket from a step ladder works fine. Its about a month old.
I can only suggest that you go to your vendor, they should replace it.
