Had to happen sooner or later!

[chykensa]

Two nights go my OH complained that her iStick wasn't firing any of her atties. On closer inspection, there was a bit of juice in the loo-seat fitting, so I cleaned that out and tried again - no joy. I thought I would take the loo-seat off and clean out the centre-pin, but couldn't get it to budge using the stupid little spannery thing that they come with. Anyone got any ideas on how I could get it off please!?

Being without a vape, and having tried her Spinners but they weren't cutting the mustard, she asked if she could borrow the mod sat on the dining table - my Magneto. OK says I, and toddled off to find a spare empty tank. Came up with a modified Kayfun (New finned topcap and big bore driptip), and filled that with some Red Astaire for her - BIG MISTAKE!!!!

She is now asking why I hadn't introduced her to these atomisers before because the flavour is completely different, but when she asked how to fill it (juice all over the kitchen floor because she assumed it was like a Protank!), I offered to show her, and took the chance to pop in a new wick after a dry burn. Called her to the kitchen and showed her how to fill from the top, but was aware that she was glazing over, so I guess it will be me that tops off tanks!!

Anyhow, it looks as though she has inadvertently moved up to the next stage, so went on Fasttech last night and ordered a new KFL for her, and a new Taifun GT for me by way of a treat. Plus some other bits and bobs, total £35!!

She likes VW ability so she can change the power without the faff of building a new coil, so any suggestions that aren't an iStick which won't break the bank and are relatively small in the hand please? Something sub-£40 would be good too

I know you said other than an I stick Andy but what about the 30w I stick, much better reliability than the 20 water with a robust auto adjust 510 and ss threads. About £32 in uk.

I second gregb on the 30w istick, me and the other half stocked up on the isticks and now only 2 are working. I use kayfuns exclusively and purchased a 30w istick each for us, better threads and adjustable with a little lip on top to support the kayfun, very happy so far.

Or if not maybe an mvp3 or sigelei 30w? I don't own those though

[geordie_vaper]

sigelie mini or if shes happy at 13watts maybe a kbox ipv minis are decent aswell

Try a pair of wiring pliers, side cutters or as a last resort I large pair of scissors.

My heart sunk chykensa when I started to read your post, thought you were going to say OH had relieved you of your MVP3 . Maybe an MVP3 would be a touch to bulky/heavy for her, but you'll know yourself they are pretty much bombproof. I've had an IPV mini for three weeks now and I must admit to being very happy with it. Adjustable + pin, nice finish and comfortable in the hand. I use mine with a Kayfun usually between 0.8 - 1.2 ohms and have had no issues whatsoever. Others will be along with suggestions, but I'm sure your good lady would be happy with the form factor and performance of this box mod. They are available for £39:99 from provapes, not sure if they can be purchased anywhere cheaper in the UK. Good luck in your quest.

If you have any VTC4s laying about chykensa, it may be a good move to get her a Smok M65. Despite all the negative opinions with a good battery the M65 is the dogs nuts, unless anyone wants to try and prove me wrong,

Go on punk, make my day!!

Rather future proof too

I had the same problem with mine this week chykensa. OH had been using her CE4's and she must have spilt juicee when filling or the atty started to leak. But the result was the istick showing No atomizer. Sure enough the was juice on the loo seat and in between when I lifted it. Like you tried the spanner to get it off. Would not budge. So left it till the next day to see if I could figure out how to remove it. But tried the spanner again. And it turned. I don't understand why, or what I did differently, but having sworn at it the day before, it must have decided to play ball. So give it another go if you haven't figured out a way to unscrew the loo seat. Once cleaned up it worked just fine.

As Evan said pointy pliers. I threw the ztoopid spanner thing away the second it came.
If you have dead I sticks due to the 510 a fdv shorty fits I think with a bit of jiggery Pokery.
