Hi everyone

Well breakdown.... I'm 42 turning 43, been smoking since I was 17, in that time maybe 2-3 off cigs. Just bought a Istick Pico and on my second day using it, and as of today, only smoked 2 cigs today, normally would have had a dozen by now.

My initial imressions of the unit, well it leaks a little outta the seal, and the battery the guy sold me is garbage, only lasts maybe 2 hrs, I'm only vaping at 25watts.

 

Please buy as soon as possible new batteries. If the batteries get hot stop using them because you are putting yourself in danger.

Is anyone using this specific machine and if so what batteries are you using?

 

I don't have that specific model but please look at this thread..

Right now, Samsung 30Q. Also LG HG2, Samsung 25R and my last surviving Sony VTC4. Stick to IMR or INR batteries from these three manufacturers and you'll be fine. As the old biking adage goes, "If you've got a ten quid head, buy a ten quid helmet".

 

Welcome to the forum. I agree with all the posters. Get some better batteries.

 

happy to read this posts,
my first no name batteries 18650 ( long ago) comes from ft, very cheap, usable, but don't last.
not very dangerous (I was using VW mod at low wattage at 10w "vamo") but not recommended (discharge currant) for vaping.
I use them on a flashlight now and it's perfect.
Basic recommended 18650 for vaping as "inr samsung 25r" are in fact not so expensive.
there is better one and more expensive, it's just after you.
As "Konvict" write: - stop if your 18650 get hot
- for your safety buy recommended on.
