I've used Mastercard for everything I've had from Aliexpress, don't think I've been charged for currency conversion. Everything I see is in £s, and I pay in £s. The advantage over FT is that the price you see is the price you actually pay - everytime I order from FT, Evkoo or GearBest the Paypal price I've had to pay is higher than the price quoted on the product page. Plus with Aliexpress the seller doesn't get the money til you receive the goods and are happy with them. I'm an Aliexpress convert!

Edit - should have read further! Enjoy your blue iStick when it arrives, hubby is loving his.

Cheers

I'll normally pay in dollars using paypal, but i'll keep an eye on that, my mastercard never used to charge for foriegn exchanges, then I got a shock returning from holiday year before last.

As for Istick, i'm using one at moment, I ended up with 2 when the whole FT/Evkoo thing was going on in November, but got offered cost on one from someone on here (£22) so at £12.50 grabbed what I consider a bargain, it can go in draw with the new unused Vamo V5 (well it was cheap) and now the Itazte VV (got a mini Istick last friday). I managed 5 years with only one device at a time, now i'm overwhelmed lol.

remember mart, when you pay with a card through paypal you can choose to use either paypal's (ususally poor) or your card issuer's exchange rate, I only ever use my visa's rate through paypal...maybe it's time to get a new card

Ok Roscopecotrain and VapingBad , thank you for the info.

In theory a 18350 will give me 19.6W with a 0.9 ohm coil when fully charged!
This of course does not consider any losses or internal resistance.
What I'm getting at is; will the Istick 20 give me more watts?

An iStick will give you the higher Watts and for longer, it's the physical size that holds 18350 back they have a comparatively high internal resistance.  The iStick will just provide the wattage or voltage and the sag due to IR is internal, where as for a mech you need to compensate for it.  You probably understand all or most of it, but I will link this video that explains it well.

I always choose card rate, always find it good, but funny enough laying on my desk is article from papers on Sunday giving cards that offer free foreign currency transactions, just got to get round to looking at it.
