Oooh, good angle! Except for the part where I don't care about what other people have...

Nice work, guys! You didn't manage to sway me to an RTA but you did get to someone else.

I've been direct dripping for so long now it's become second nature. Plus, it gives my hands something to do.

Lol. Except when she isn't. Still not convinced I want to get into RTAs. Had to go to work today so I still haven't had time to play with my new RDAs that I just got in.

Nice review, Earthling!

Welcome to Vapor Talk.

Welcome to Vapor Talk.

Welcome to Vapor Talk.

Yeah, I'm aware that each tab opened in Chrome is opened in a new process, it's own window so it's like opening another program and leaving it running. If you don't have much RAM, it can kill your speed, but with 32 gigs of RAM running on an AMD Phenom II quad core processor, I think I'm okay.

Welcome to Vapor Talk.

Pulled the center pin on the iStick and played around with it some more. Finally got it to work again. Thanks!

I've been using Chrome for the past several months and haven't had much problems with it. On occasion I get a slow load on a page but otherwise... it's been fine. Wonder why it's giving you problems? Are you using mobile or desktop?

I have back ups for a few years at this point. By the time I need more, there will be even bigger and better toys out there!

Thanks. I also found that if I cranked it up one watt, it seems to work better. At 5.6 watts it would go out periodically. At 5.7 watts, it's hitting perfectly fine. I'll be sure not to tighten the connector too much. Thanks for the tip!

Right now I doubt I'd have any use for another battery after buying two iStick 20w and the IPV mini. Never say never, but for now... nope.

Yeah, it worked well with the Nautilus mini but I bought these to specifically replace my Vision Spinners (the first 1300 mAh) for my HH.357s.

One of the first things I tried was to pull the center pin up. Great minds, Earthling, but that didn't get it going. Then, I tried the other ego / 510 connector but that didn't work, either. Are you saying I shouldn't firmly seat the connector in order to make it work? I'll try that next time. I was suspicious that the iStick wouldn't work no matter how much charge was left if it didn't have enough oomph to fire the atomizer/coil but at 5.6 watts, I didn't think it would be an issue. Do you know where I could replace the connector with a better one?

So my new Eleaf iStick 20w has been working great since I got two of them in a few days ago from the Vapor Talk store. I have a question for those of you who are more familiar with them. Today, one stopped working -- the "red" one. The display said there was no atomizer. There was a fairly new Custom Cisco Hybrid HH.357 atomizer at 2.0 ohms on it at the time. I tried taking it off, cleaning all connections, making sure everything was finger tight when I put it back together... the battery display said it was still half charged and I was using it at 5.6 watts. Tried the atomizer on the blue iStick. Display said "no atomizer" again. This was on a fully charged battery. Tried the same atomizer on my Vision Spinner and it fired right up. Put the Nautilus mini with a 1.8 ohm coil on the red one and it read the coil at 1.8 ohms and fired right away. Tried the HH.357 again with no luck. Has anyone else have something like this happen to them? Any wild theories to throw out there? Once I recharged the red one it worked just fine with the HH.357. Frankly, I'm puzzled about this.

My dream job is called, "retirement."

There have been a few of these lately... a little more than normal that I've seen.

I think you guys scared him off. LOL

Nope. Never lost the tiny mini Bics because I always got the box of smokes and kept the lighter inside of the box. Yeah, the new iStick mini is much smaller than I like. It took some doing to find a comfortable grip on the iSticks I have.

Did you clean with a Q-tip dipped in rubbing alcohol? That helps. Then, before you try putting the battery onto the charger again, pull the center pin up on the battery. It might not be making contact... Whatever you had on it might've pushed the center pin down so it's not making contact with your battery charger.

Cutting a small square of those rubber shelf liners, I keep those near me and they help keep a grip to get the base off my Nautilus mini. http://www.amazon.com/Duck-1100731-Non-Adhesive-12-Inch-20-Feet/dp/B002AS9NAI/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1420772754&sr=8-2&keywords=rubber+drawer+liner

Back ups...
