Based on tha description I'd steer clear. Firstly it looks like it has a fixed 510 centre pin which is never good for reliability. Also it looks like it has 3 settings, 10, 20 or 30 settings with nothing in between. Surely your good ladies worth a bit more. Get here a Evic Miny. There only about £20 If you really want something like the link get her an istaick 30w, spring loaded pin and bettervariable power settings.

I don't mind spending the money, but she likes straight forward mods that just work. She only vapes MTL at about 10 watts, with about 1.5-1.8 ohm coils. I got her two iStick Basics a couple of months ago, but both have now broken down. I got her a T18, but she's not keen on that. So she is back to an old Smart 20 which doesn't hold it's charge as well as it did, but is over 1 year old now, so not complaining. Just need to get her something reliable. I saw the £7 jobbies and thought how bad can they be.

I agree completely with Greg here. I have had 2 mods with fixed 510 centre pins, and both were a complete pain in the neck. Constantly getting "Check Atomiser" and having to adjust the pin - until the day when the pin refuses to adjust, when you might as well chuck it in the bin. Steer clear and go for the Evic Mini.

if she drops the mod a lot then you can always get her a silicon sleve in her choice of colour for the evil as well,
just don't make the mistake I made and order two separate colours in one go from the same vendor (blue and pink) I ended up with two pink ones although they gave me the money back for one and told me to keep it unfortunately they had run out of other colours.... I do get some funny looks when I use it outside the house but what the hell its only a cover and it saved the evil when I dropped it so I don't care too much

Get your good lady a couple more of those then Bobsbeer . . . . they work for her, over a years use is pretty good going for the outlay - which I wouldn't call unreliable. I'm all for ' gizmo's ' but not everyone wants or needs the latest gadgetry to keep them from smoking. Why complicate what works?

But she manages to break them. Not seen her dropping them though. Now given her my old 30w istick as well and that is over a year old now. Maybe just shit quality iStick Basics. Needless to say I haven't ordered any more. She liked the form factor though, so a shame.

Mrs G-J is similar, but with her it's forever knocking them over (along with the odd drop)....

It's really stealthy. You should splash out and get one.

As this is just part of my ' accumulations ' I really, really don't think there's a need to splash out on anything for a while . . . . . once the latest FT order arrives that is!
