So, not been here for a very long time and I apologise for not joining in much My MVP has started to die, had it around 6-7 months and feel it's time to change so I've been looking at the new ileaf isticks. Ordered one from a vendor and after taking my hard earned money was then told they only had pink and would that be OK ? I'm a 44 year old, 16st guy and even now I look pretty stupid vaping on my MVP and then they throw a pink one at me !! wtf !! So declined their kind offer of making me feminine and got a refund but I cannot find anyone that has a silver 30w istick in stock. I've emailed myepack and awaiting a reply and they've withdrawn the 20w version due to teething problems which I'm led to believe have been ironed out with the 30w option. Also, currently using Protank 2's and iclear 30s and wanted to see what would be the best option for the istick.. I don't want to spend a fortune as I've just wittled my way down from 24 to 6mg nicotine and eventually will cut it out altogether. Spending 35 quid for a new mod is max really.. Any thoughts ?

tbh honest I don't and wouldnt know where to start. When I started I was looking at doing my own juices but again, it's all down to time which I don't have, sounds stupid I know but life is just craaazy !! I'm always up for saving money though so if recoiling the heads is worth doing then i would look at it.

How quick are FastTech and are they recomended vendors to ship to UK ? Always wary about using overseas vendors but the prices look awesome

OK I'll see what myepack come back with.. As for recoiling, looks interesting but I'm such a lazy sod, would rather just pop one out of the packet and away we go Guessing the flavour is a lot better than standard sold coils

Other options could be either Kayfun lite or a Lemo on the 30w Istick, i know these are rebuildables but i only started a few months ago, and it really is not difficult to learn building your own coils/wicks, and would save a fair bit on dedicated coils, wife and i both use the above tanks on our 20w Isticks when out and about. Plenty of video's etc, and advice on here if you decided to go that route.

I best go and have a read at some tutorials then I guess But first I need to find an istick 30w and look at the Kayfun lite or for the time being possibly a Nautilaus mini to get me started. Presume theres loads of info on here for re-coiling etc. Just ordered some of my fave juices, I'm still a sucker for sweet / desert flavours and love custards. Just ordered from Vaping King, they deliver pretty quick so should be here tomorrow.

Making coils for protanks is a bit fiddly, but if I can do, anyone can. Have a go, you can test the ohms on your mvp if you haven't got an ohms tester thing and wicked with cotton wool, Japanese cotton or rayon taste so much better than the stock coils. I'd also suggest mixing your own liquid but if you aren't planning on vaping long term then it's not really worth getting all the stuff, although long term it's much cheaper. Protanks on the isticks are fine. As for a silver istick, have you tried vape escape? I haven't checked the web site but if you tag Jason on here he is excellent at responding. Good luck with your search.

Usually taking about two weeks from fastech at the moment. My istick from evkoo only took 8 days. Definitely no problems with the 7 isticks I have bought ( not all for me ) 2 also bought from Aliexpress, again about two weeks and no problems
