hi all, im a 10-year vaper that's relatively stuck in the past. im looking for 2 mods, must be an inbuilt battery, i currently still use my 3 trusty istick 50 watt in a daily rotation, all 3 are now starting to fail, they've done brilliantly. i use innokin T18 coils and been very happy with them until about a year back, i started doing 60/40 rather 100% pg and i think that makes a difference to the coils, there great for a couple of days then fade quickly, whereas they were good for a couple of weeks sometimes, with pg. so im also looking for a new method MTL but i dont want juice guzzling methods, im @ 12mg but would cut that for the right method, i dont need clouds, im currently at 8 watts, ideally cheap, basic, simple and 95% reliable ie leak free with simple coils (do they exist). my gear generally comes from fastech but im advised this might be an issue and not so cheap as it was. i prefer to have 2, so i always have a spare, i use one 24hrs charge it and use the next one. im considering these linkany advice on either would be great. tia.

ragjoy Your link on what you are considering is incorrect, it just links back to this thread.

Cutting nic content AND going from 100% pg its no wonder you're having a bit of a time of it!! If i just go lower than 90% pg at the same nic I don't feel like it works. Cut one at a time until you're settled. If you want something simple tank wise, try the Animodz Doggy style from fasttech, with some pre made coils, cheap as chips and is very reliable

Although the changes I made seem extreme, they was done over a period of time.

How about this newish iStick ragjoy . . . no idea what it's like not having one myself, but it might have a better run time than the iPower?

I don't really follow the mods much but the ipower, from experience and some reviews, it seems some are finished in a very short time, I never had a bad 50 watt istick although people did initially. I'll have a quick check on the reviews, at first glance it seems good to me, little bit dearer than the ipower but a newer model I guess, which I'd prefer, also limited colours now on the ipower. Thanks Mandy x

Wow that was fast Raggy! Was that from Vapeclub . . . . you'll have to let us know how you get on with it. The iPowers weren't the most popular from Eleaf, although I've been fine with mine, so it looks like they've gone back to ' basics ' with the T80.
I still reckon the Innokin Zlide might be worth you investigating - downside if you buy in the UK is the 2ml tank:
It's a good price at Vampire Vape and the code VV10 may give you a 10% discount. xx

I was more than a bit aggravated initially as after I placed the order they wanted a photo of my passport or licence and me holding it, this seemed more than a little odd to me but after checking around apparently it's not, that aside very impressed. Ref the tank Mandy, could you possibly link some coils, might give this a try,looks simple enough. I watched a t80 kit review and the bloke slaughtered the tank that came as kit, not sure if this is the same, it was only leaking though so not a real review. For some odd reason my cartos seem a mile better, only the 2nd day so this may be the reason there ok,wondering if I was getting spikes or something else that was over burning them, causing them to fail quickly, time will tell. Thank you x

That's almost the norm now Raggy signing up on sites . . . . TPD/negative press etc etc, Vendors have to be careful as you could be an underage person, or Trading Standards who will use such measures to see if the company is abiding by the regulations for ecigs. We get TS send in underage shoppers at our place, seeing if they can catch us out selling alcohol/ciggies - it's no different for online shopping. xx
Anyway, here's some links for coils - the Zlide also takes Innokin Zenith coils:
