Well... nobody can really resist the kid in them when a friend offers you to drive their ATV. All reason gets thrown out of the proverbial window. Had the istick in my coat pocket that HAS ZIPPERS for the pockets. So all that snow and some ATV driftin' n donutin' and it somehow gets out of the pocket. Spent like an hour looking for it no such luck :(. So lesson learned, use the dang zippers or put it somewhere safe... At least I had the good grace to have a 2nd set up, and losing it gives me a good reason to get a 50w in a couple weeks.

Rest in Pieces 20w istick and GeniTank Mega. The Aerotank Giant will miss you. And I will always remember you when I :vapor:

Lucky you!
For real.
Now your 'good reason' isn't just an excuse!
The 30W is a no-brainer, and your thought on a 50W is even better if you don't mind the slightly larger size.
Both are a nice improvement over the 20W
I've only had my 30W for a few weeks - didn't think I needed the 50W.
Guess I need to find an ATV to ride.......

You'll like the 50w....incredible little mod.

Battery... I forget to charge the 50w... at 15-20w's it has lasted for three days...not using it exclusively, but a LOT.

Still at half charge (according to the screen), almost makes me wonder if its correct....:)

FInally picked up a Istick 50w at a B&M, it only cost almost the same as you would get online with Shipping n handling. Dude there was pretty helpful in helping me decide on 30w n 50w, he made excellent points of having 50w, such as being able to go the dripper route easily than 30w. and i was sold on the price as well. This thing fits nicely in my hand and the atlantis looks sweet on it.

This is too funny...I lost an istick I had just got as a Christmas gift in the snow in our yard a couple of months back, was cleaning up after the first really heavy snowfall, got another couple of feet since then. It's starting to melt now but we have a BIG yard...haven't seen it yet. Didn't zip up the pocket it was in all the way...I feel your pain. The tank and the tip will likely be salvageable, and if the snow blower didn't hit it I gotta make sure the lawn mower doesn't!! Just hoping the town plow didn't take it up the road...sigh.

I didn't read the thread but I assume "the snow" is some sort of neighborhood gang in your area or maybe those anti-vaper people you all post about. You can't let them push you around. Don't let them take your stuff. You allow this to happen once, it's just going to happen again and again. Now they know they can walk all over you. They're telling their fellow gang banger friends about this while you're cowering to the internet to tell us. What you need to do is get out there and stand up for yourself. NOW GET OUT THERE AND KICK THAT SNOWS ...

This reminds me of years ago when I lost a ps1 memory card in the snow when i was a teenager. The thing is I didn't even realize where it went or how it got out there. I just knew it was missing. Come spring I found it. The thing still worked perfectly too. I still have it now actually and it still works. lol

30w is fine for a dripper. He convinced you to spend more money, good salesman right there. 30w is also good ATM for all the subtanks out right now. Istick watts are also different then a YiHi or Evolv watt, supposidly more powerful

definitely a good salesman, but for 10 bucks more and 20 watts more, getting a 50w was no brainer.. also i tried the 30w, it felt so small in my hands. the 50w just fits nicely in my hand.
