Replacement for istick 30

[mart166]

Hello folks
Not been on for a long while due to being ill/in doctors/in hospital, not the greatest of years.
During that time my trusty i30's have come to the end of their life, so went to FT to get a new one (I love them) but they dont excist anymore, only place I could find one was fleabay at £40 do not think so my last cost £17 from FT. Any sugestions for a replacement, I vape at 9W and want a built in battery that lasts all day and I want it about the same size as the i30. As i've been out of the loop for so long I do not know whats out there.
Many thanks in advance.
Martin.

Both shown as out of stock but they respond quickly to emails ( not the notify me when in stock ) as to when they expect to get something back in.

I've been using them for several years & the only criticism is that they leave items they no longer stock on the website eg full size Nautilus..

Mrs.G-J been using the nme (cant remember if 30 or 40w, might be the 40 with the extended top bit) for a goid while now, would recommend them at a few quid cheaper..identical apart from the name on them.

Many thanks to all that replied.
I have one winging its way from FT.
The I40 had one of those, but was very dissapointed in it, after a few months it would not hold its charge for a full day, so its laying in my ecig scrapyard.
Thanks once again.

Just one reason i always buy mods with removable batteries, if you get a bad cell with built in mods you either have to bin the device or break out the soldering iron to replace it rather than just spend 3 or 4 quid on a new battery.

I've just had a look in my "Vape-apocolypse" drawer and have a brand new black one (Istick 30w) complete with the authentification scratch and sniff sticker.
How much was it from Fasttech?



And I've also found a brand new Ego One Mega 4ml Tank!!! - been looking for these for ages (bought one from TJ recently but still would like a couple of spares)

It cost me $26.42, included in that had to pay about $2.80 for swedish mail, cheapest option, no free delivery
I did look at the Pico but thats a 18650 battery, I travel a lot so external batteries a bit of a faf for me, need spare bats charger etc, I carry enough vaping spares as it is, with the internal all you need is your phone charger that you have to take anyway, also lots of hotels now have USB ports in their plug sockets, going to fit one here.

99% of all mods that use external batteries have a micro usb charging port so charge just the same as one with an inbuilt battery.
External chargers are only recommended for mods with multiple batteries to ensure all of them are charged evenly, not an issue with single battery devices though.
IMR batteries are only an issue if you're carrying them in your hold luggage, perfectly fine to take on a flight in hand luggage.
