Hello Guys, as most of you know I am on the hunt for a new mod, and more importantly the perfect mod for me, which after almost a week of nonstop research and watching mod reviews, seems to be the Istick 100 Watt,,, I found people on this site are really helpful so before I order it on Friday for the great price of $35 I just want to make sure that it is a good mod... I did hear nothing but good things about from reviews on YouTube and such, and I do know that the buttons rattle when you shake it and there's no temp control, but are there any other drawbacks? If anyone has any experience with this mod let me know how it worked out for you... Because it amazes me that it has 100 watts of power, and for the dual 18650 removable (I want more battery life as I mentioned in other threads, hoping to get good battery life out of this) plus USB charging and passthroug is a plus, and I can get it for such a good price! But yeah I already mentioned before that I was going with this, but if anyone has one and for some reason there are any major drawbacks let me know! Any tips for it or other review information and of course positive things would help too! Anything you know and can tell me about it is much appreciated! Thanks!

For a 100 watt mod, $35 is very good, there's no doubt about that. But there is definitely a "reliability and consistency" reputation for iSticks, or should I say, lack thereof. Just make sure you get it from a reputable retailer that will take returns if the item is defective. I have a 40w TC, and it's fine.

What is your goal? Why do you need 100 watts of power? Plan on a sub ohm RDA build? For 9 more bucks, I think you'd be happier with a more reputable manufacturer like Sigelei, for instance...

Or, for $18 more, a more powerful device like the IPV 4s, which has firmware upgrades via USB. No pass through charging, but with dual 18650's, you'll be recharging very infrequently.

I have a friend who bought the Istick 100 as her first dual battery device. It works very well, and it looked pretty solid to me! There's a VJ deal at the moment for $26, which is hard to beat.

Dude, you're posting the same thing on every thread, and there are so many of them. Buy the damn mod and be done with it. Its as good as any for the most part and it's a perfect entry level mod for sure.

But you're only 18 years old. If you're not addicted to nicotine, just stay away from it. Nicotine sucks and it's not worth getting addicted to it because at this point in your life you feel that vaping is fun or glamorous. Straight up, vaping is fucking stupid. We look foolish vaping and it sucks dealing with the relatively primitive technology just to satisfy our addiction. Buying coils, buying the right juice, the right batteries, having a station at home for all your shit, building coils, chasing the mailman, and blowing clouds all sucks. The only reason I'm such a HUGE fanatic of it is because I am so fucking happy to be off of cigarettes! Bottomline, I believe the vast majority of us all ultimately wish we weren't concerned with cigarettes or vaping at all. Its a cool hobby, but so is being more productive in every other aspect of your life. I can't tell you how much I wish I spent zero money and zero time on vaping. Good luck with your cool Istick hundo.

@Rhyno636 good point man! I should just shut up Lol... I just hated getting that mod and the feeling I got when getting it changing to "fuck this shit" within a few days so I wanted to be extra sure with everything and cover all my bases... But yeah I'm done bitching and asking questions so don't worry about that... As for the whole Nictotine thing, I used to be a pack a day smoker... I felt like shit every day and frequently threw up and could barley breathe well half the time...Getting off of smoking was a BITCH for me and made me crazy even after the usual 2 or 3 week period that people say takes the bad feelings away, but I didn't want lung cancer so I made the choice to quit... The Nicotine Gum I was chewing helped, but not much... Then my Friend told me to get into Vaping and here i Am... I think it's a way cheaper and more health conscious vice than cigarettes, although people do look down it like you said, but it's fun to me and it's a way to still do some kind of drug without hurting myself too bad... Plus I don't smell like shit Lol... and a side note I used to do other things that are far worse than Vaping too but I won't get into that... Plus as far as Nicotine goes I only use 3 mg which is the lowest you can go before hitting 0 and that does me fine... And I heard there's 18 mg in one Boag so that's a way to look it at also... But yeah I'm sorry for annoying y'all with all these posts, I'm just gonna get my shit and be done with it... I just wanted to clarify to you why I Vape...

All good my man. The Istick hundo is a fine piece. The battery life is fine and it's a versatile mod, meaning it can run pretty much any atomizer. You're not missing out on temp control, I'm a seasoned vaper and I'm not a fan of it. Maybe you will be someday, but you're still not missing out buying the hundo. You'll be happy with it.

Actually, some places have 1.5 nic. I use it... on my way to 0.

Vaping, just from a medical logic standpoint, is not dangerous at all. As long as you don't drink the juice or something, the nicotine can't possibly poison you... you'd have to smoke like... 60 cigarettes at once to reach poisonous levels.

Also, as they say in Toxicology, "the dose makes the poison." Nicotine in small amounts is actually beneficial to neurological health, and not detrimental in any way. Cigarettes will kill you, not nicotine.

And as for the inert ingredients in vape juice... VG and PG are common food additives. Ingesting them, let alone vaping them, isn't a human health concern in any regard.

Likely more of a sure thing to render some degree of satisfaction than spending $35 on dinner for some girl you happen to meet with a cute butt.
