Eleaf-iStick-100W-First-Impressions-and-Review-p

It's built really well when you consider the cost. Do not anticipate it to be built like a high-end mod, and I wouldn't dare drop the iStick, however to be frank, I 'd think Eleaf might've gotten away with charging 2x as much for this-- and even at that price it still would've been cheaper than many others at this power variety and build quality
.
It feels reasonably sturdy and solid, however it does have a very significant button rattle that you hardly even have to shake the mod to hear. But at this cost, that rattle ought to simply advise you of all the money saved!
.
Lastly, the iStick 100 Watt mod has one of the very best battery doors for these kinds of mods! Having just evaluated the Sigelei 150 Watt TC, I can say that this battery door is considerably better than the Sig's. The iStick 100 Watt's battery door is held on by 2 small pair of very strong, circular magnets. These magnets are like little bullies! Seriously. The battery door snaps into location like it's gotten pimp smacked.

Note: I know that the battery door or the Sigelei 150 Watt TC weighs more than the iStick 100 (about 33 grams to 20 grams), so it's not an apples to apples comparison, but even still, the magnets should be as strong as they have to be to keep things firmly undamaged. The iStick 100 Watt has that in spades. Eleaf 100W Temp Control Box Mod The battery door will * not * mistakenly come off!


Ergonomics.


As I stated in my introduction, this mod is very simple to utilize. It's an iStick after all. It works just like the other iSticks. The main difference with this one and the other VW/VW iSticks is that it's got loads of power and the user offers the batteries
.

Here's a quick rundown of the features and the best ways to utilize them:.

To turn the mod on, rapidly click the fire button five times.
To shift in between VV and VW, when the mod is on, quickly click the fire button 3 times.
To lock the change buttons, all at once push them both for three seconds (the exact same to turn unlock it).
To switch the screen to a left-handed view, when the mod is off, simultaneously push the modification buttons for 3 seconds.

When firing the mod, the normal readout switches over to a 2nd counter that will stop shooting at 10 seconds.
That's it! Hell, I never ever use or pay attention to any of those 'functions' except to turn on the damned thing. iSmoka Eleaf 100 Watt Temp Control Mod It's one of those mods that you have to do is to take it out of the box, pop the batteries in, click the button five times and choose your atty.


Aesthetics.

What I like about the overall visual appeals of the gadget is that it is not tripping over itself to look hip. I think a lot of mods are designed to look 'cool' and, not just end up missing the mark but, end up looking downright awful. Eleaf 100W Temp Control Box Mod This mod keeps it simple, and while it may not make anyone drool, it likewise won't make any individual wish to throw up!
.
The Eleaf iStick 100 Watt currently is available in 2 colors: shimmery silver and matte black. I do not like the shimmery silver, however for this rate, I wouldn't care if it was glittery pink ... fine, that's a lie
.
The top of the mod is a bit over 22 mm, but it's so slight I do not even observe it. This could be a good thing for those that have atties in the 23-24 mm range-- I can only think that those would not have any hang-over, or would have very little
.
Like all the iStick mods, both the leading and the bottom of the mod are chrome (truly mirror-like; I think it's cool to see your mouth and nose while you vape?). However here, rather of being more oval shaped like in the older designs, now it's a little hour-glassed formed. A subtle modification and it looks good.
Power of the iStick 100 Watt.

I do not have any equipment or knowledge to test these sort of elements of a device-- all I have is my atomizers, drip pointers and my sense of sensation. For exactly what I can inform, whatever watts I have set on this gadget feels the same as on my other devices set to the exact same power
.
Note: No problems with my atomizer checking out high or low.


Screen.

The screen is very well lit. It's brighter than the other iSticks and I do not have any problems reading it in brilliant lighting. It's the exact same design as the other iSticks and if I needed to gripe, I 'd say that the atomizer resistance readout is a bit little. However honestly, I do not too often have to check out that (or the screen in basic) since after I put my atty on and see that everything is taking a look at, I set it and forget it.
Menu Toggle.

No "round-robin" as Pbusardo states, however holding down the adjustment buttons will get you to where you want at a decent-enough speed, unless you wish to go from 5 watts all the method as much as 100 watts, in which case it will take you over 23 seconds. I imagine that most people won't be making those sort of jumps though.


The 510 Connection.

Spring-loaded copper 510 pin. A few of my atties sit flush and others don't (I believe that is because the 510 has actually an ever-so-slightly raised collar). However the atties I have that do not sit flush just have a hairline space-- nothing to whine about.
Charge Port.

It's on the bottom of the mod. When I say "bottom," I do not mean it's near the bottom, it's on the bottom-- suggesting under the mod. That's exceptionally goofy to put it there, however anyhow, I am uncertain why anybody would wish to charge a dual-18650 mod by means of a charge port when it has replaceable batteries. I guess if you are out and about it may make sense (if you do not have any back-up batteries), but I'll likely never ever utilize it.
