iStick TC60W by Eleaf

The iStick TC60W is a variable wattage device which also includes temperature control functionality. It features compatibility for both Nickel (Ni) and Titanium (Ti) coils. The TC60W comes with many safety features including short circuit, low voltage and temperature protection. Unlike the 30W and 50W iStick the TC60W requires a single 18650 replaceable battery.

For regular wattage vaping this device works exactly like you would expect and offers up to 60W of power. I used the TC60W with my GP Heron 1.5 which currently has a 1.2ohm coil in it and I was vaping away for several hours at 12.8W. I did not encounter any problems at all so providing you don’t need lots of power then this is a great little device! It goes without saying that if you are running this device at 50-60W then the battery will drain much faster.

To test the Temperature Control functionality I used my Sense Herakles tank which is currently fitted with a Ni200 coil. I had filled the tank up with Manabush Powwow Sauce and vaped the tank at 55W with a temperature of 260°C. I got a very warm and flavoursome vape and despite the fact that adjusting the wattage while in temperature mode is slightly awkward I personally didn’t feel the need to change the settings. Temperature Protection seemed to kick in when it needed to and in the short time I used the device I didn’t notice any problems.

Conclusion

In my opinion the iStick TC60W is a really decent device. The form factor is great and the product feels very well put together! For quite a few 60W is more than sufficient and due to the fact it uses replaceable batteries means that you won’t have to wait for it to charge if you have spare batteries.

Temperature Control is a nice feature to include but I did find that adjusting the settings on this device could be a little awkward and in many ways I wish Eleaf had gone for the typical plus and minus buttons instead of one adjustment bar. To be fair you will probably get used to it in time so it certainly isn’t a deal breaker or anything.

Eleaf’s products are competitively priced so for the money this a very worthwhile device if it appeals to you!
