Why I Bought the iStick 50w
Right now I only own the 20w iStick and the Aspire CF VV. I wanted another box mod that was more powerful and something that could fire sub-ohm atomizers.
I looked at a few other popular devices, such as the Seigeli 100w and 150w, the 70w iPV mini II, the 150w ipv3, and the ipv4 (which wasn’t out yet when I recorded my video review).
I went with the iStick 50w mostly because it’s so consumer-friendly. It has a built-in battery, has all of the safety protections I might need, and 50 watts is plenty for me right now. I’ll probably upgrade to something a little more advanced a few months down the road.
