HeavenGifts 200 Watt Eleaf iStick TC Express Kit

[monty]

Chunky but rounded, Not just for subOhmers but for long battery life and for not falling over (famous last words). Preorder at the moment. I like the third button - often thought the menuing could be simpler with more than two buttons. Comes in black, grey and white. A snip at $48.30 + postage.

maybe a daft question but does it have battery vent holes ?

[sydsut]

Don't think so but it looks as if it can vent through the sides of the battery compartment lid.

well the rolo came out with 200w and a couple of months later a new firmware update pushes that 250w, i'm just thinking it might not be a bad idea to you know have vent holes, not like some tool isn't going to see that and think "i'm a get that and be fly" then without knowing what there doing with that 2.2 ohm clero and their touchfire branded icr10 rated cells  whack it up to full power and wonder why there arm is suddenly  missing the grabby bit and blame it all on dangerous unregulated devices now is it ..... oh wait that's exactly what the average "mod blew up" types do already ..... and you just know they would of dropped it and taped the battery cover shut because it kept getting loose ......

Yeah, but it just proves Darwin's theory

(your post made me laugh out loud, as I hadn't *thought it through*)

its not proving Darwin's theory that will upset most folk though its the embuggerance factor it will create with new regulations that will be parachuted in to cover the batteries supplied and the power levels in the mods and so on, which will just lead to less choice less innovation and a more lacklustre set of gear on sale...which is of course exactly the sort of "protect the plebs from themselves " sort of thing out nanny state loves to do, just look at the restrictions in other areas like utility's, its one thing to have safety based regulations (don't put cumulative effect poison into food stuffs) its another to say "this item might be dangerous if you miss use it so were going to ban it from sale to the public" (like the majority of fireworks were)....

oh and lets not get into the side effects for everyone else in the room having to breath in the fumes of a battery under thermal runaway....

extrapolation r us.
How about, don't buy it cos it's ugly? Better than an end of world as we know it scenario.

[nanotm]

buggritt your right of course but the extrapolation is where a lot of the worst legislation comes from, all it takes is one noob to ruin life for the masses and unfortunately the world is full of noobs in all walks of life
