Eleaf iStick 30W Preview

What The Eleaf iStick 30W Mod Is

A small metal box with a screen, two buttons and a thread on top for a tank. You set the power by hand and it runs up to 30 watts. The battery is sealed inside, so there is nothing to buy alongside it.

One thing our listing never says. Eleaf launched this in May 2015. It is eleven years old and still in production, which tells you it sells, but anybody expecting a modern mod will be surprised.

An Eleaf iStick 30W Mod is for the customer who wants a simple refillable that fits in a pocket and costs very little. It is not for somebody chasing big clouds. Our other mods run from a £7.50 pen battery up to a 200 watt box, all listed under Wholesale Box Mods page.

The Numbers Eleaf Publishes

Our product details tab is empty, and the only two figures on the page sit in the search snippet. Here is the maker's full set.

Power5 to 30 watts Voltage2.0 to 8.0 volts Coils it accepts0.4 ohm up to 5 ohm Battery2200mAh, sealed in ScreenSmall OLED Thread510, steel, spring loaded Size77mm tall, 32.5 wide, 23 thick SafetyShort circuit, low voltage, 10 second cut off

That bottom row matters and no page of ours carries it. It will not fire a shorted coil, it will not run the cell flat enough to damage it, and it cuts out if a button is held down for ten seconds in a bag. There is a button lock too: hold both arrows for two seconds.

Tank fit is wide. Most 22mm and 23mm tanks sit flush on it. One gap on our side is that our Wholesale Eleaf Coils page does not print a single resistance figure, which makes the next section harder than it should be.

What Coils It Will And Will Not Fire

This is the most important thing on the page, so read it before you order. The mod stops at 0.4 ohm. Anything lower than that it will refuse.

✗ Eleaf HW-M coils, 0.15 ohm below the floor, and they want 70 to 80 watts

✗ Eleaf HW-N coils, 0.2 ohm below the floor, and they want 65 to 75 watts

✓ Eleaf GS Air coils the higher resistance ones, and the likely match

So two of the three Eleaf coils we stock cannot run on the Eleaf mod we stock. Both sit under the floor and both want more than double the power this makes. Eleaf lists them for the iJust 3, iStick Pico S, Lexicon and ELLO tanks, and the iStick 30W is not on that list. The Reading Coil Ohms guide explains what the number means if a customer asks.

We also need to correct ourselves. Our search snippet calls this mod ideal for sub ohm vaping. At a 0.4 ohm floor and a 30 watt ceiling it will run an older 0.5 ohm coil and nothing like a modern mesh one. That wording is coming off.

How Long The Battery Lasts And How It Charges

2200mAh is small by today's standards, and how long it lasts depends entirely on how hard it is pushed.

Pushed flat out at 30 watts on a 0.5 ohm coil, an independent reviewer got four to five hours. Used gently at low power it ran two days. A fair thing to tell a customer is one day, and more if they vape lightly.

Charging is USB on the bottom, around two and a half hours on the adaptor in the box. You can vape while it charges. But with the socket underneath it cannot stand on a counter while plugged in. A few owners reported poor charge retention after a fortnight, though the reviewer saw none of it. Stock something with a bigger cell beside it, such as the Eleaf iStick Power 2 is the obvious one.

Four Colours, And What Else Is In The Box

Black, Blue, Silver and Red. All four can be ordered from us. One large American retailer has Red and Blue sold out right now, so a full set is not a given everywhere.

One aside on spelling. Eleaf's own spec page writes the colour as Sliver. Ours says Silver, so for once the mistake is theirs.

Now the part our listing never mentions. Five things come in the box:

The mod, a USB cable, a 1 amp wall adaptor, an eGo threading adaptor for older tanks, and a manual. A free plug at this price is a selling point and we are keeping it quiet. For something smaller still, the Eleaf Mini iStick 10W is the next size down.

Eleaf iStick 30W Mod Wholesale Prices And Minimum Order

£14.99 each, one at a time, no trade box to buy into. That is near the bottom of our mod shelf, which runs from a £7.50 pen battery to £32.50.

Where an Eleaf iStick 30W Mod Wholesale order earns its place is the shelf below twenty pounds. A shop needs something to hand the customer who wants a refillable but will not spend thirty pounds, and this is it. Seven of these clear the £100 order floor on their own.

Terms are the house ones. We cannot ship below £100, carriage runs at £7.99, and that charge disappears past £200. Our shipping tab gives one cut off time in one place and a different one further down, so ring us for the real figure. For a cheaper Eleaf that needs no tank at all, look at the Eleaf iSolo Air Kit instead.

Eleaf iStick 30W Mod Bulk Stock And Who It Suits

We hold 1,129 of them and have sold none in twelve months. The listing pulled 823 views in search and two clicks, sitting around position 38.

That is not a verdict on the mod. A page with an empty details tab, a broken price line and no mention of the free adaptor was never going to sell anything. Fixing it is our job.

So keep an Eleaf iStick 30W Mod Bulk order small and tied to what else you sell. Ten across two colours tells you whether the price point works on your counter, and stock runs deep enough that there is no rush.

One condition before going deeper, and it is the coil question again. If an Eleaf iStick 30W Box Mod goes on your shelf, keep the coils beside it at 0.4 ohm or higher, because Eleaf HW-N Coils and the HW-M will not fire on it at all. A device with the wrong resupply behind it comes back as a complaint.

FAQs

Does the battery come out?

No. The 2200mAh cell is sealed inside, so there are no loose batteries to buy or charge.

What is the lowest coil it will fire?

0.4 ohm. Anything below that is refused, so modern mesh coils are out.

Will our Eleaf HW coils work on it?

No. HW-M is 0.15 ohm and HW-N is 0.2 ohm, both under the floor and both built for far more power.

Is an Eleaf iStick 30W Box Mod any good for sub ohm?

Only just. It handles an older 0.5 ohm coil at 30 watts. Our own snippet oversells this and is being corrected.

What tanks fit it?

Most 22mm and 23mm tanks sit flush on the 510 thread. An eGo adaptor is included for older ones.

How long does a charge last?

Four to five hours flat out, about a day for most people, and up to two days on light use.

Can it be used while charging?

Yes. It charges through USB in about two and a half hours and will vape at the same time.

Does a charger come with it?

Yes, a 1 amp wall adaptor and a USB cable, plus an eGo adaptor and a manual.

Is there a minimum on an Eleaf iStick 30W Mod Wholesale order?

Yes, £100, counted across everything on it. Carriage is £7.99 and vanishes past £200.

How big should a first Eleaf iStick 30W Mod Bulk order be?

Around ten, across two colours. Stock sits above a thousand units, so nothing runs out behind you.
