Yes, I cannot understand why such a markup on mailing. I bought a part the other day for 5 dollars and the shipping cost was more than the part (8.50), and it definitely wasn't the weight!
I didn't see anyone mention this to you specifically (sorry if someone did) or if you've read it earlier in the thread, but the newly released gs-tank does not have the vent hole on the bottom of the 510 connector which will eliminate leaking into your battery.
Thank you! The second link isn't working though.
Is it the reaper blend you keep mentioning? Is that the six-leaf extracted tobacco from rfv? I'm not finding a vg/pg ratio. I can't handle much vg.
Yep. That's the one. It's a 70/30 PG/VG ratio. Pretty thin stuff. Really thin for my taste (I'm a 100% VG type of guy), but MAN the stuff is good. I quit vaping it for a while, after I started DIY, but am wondering why, now... it's (IMO, anyhow) the best commercial tobacco e liquid out there. Only custom blended NET DIY liquids have been better in my experience (and I'm a self-proclaimed tobacco e liquid nut... I don't vape anything else).
Spinfuel awarded it their 2014 tobacco e liquid of the year award and their 2014 overall e liquid of the year award... and deservedly so.
I posted an ECF review here:
Rocket Fuel Vapes - Reaper Blend 6 Tobacco E liquid | E-Cigarette Forum
I provided links and a 20% discount code (the code is in the first reply I made).
You do your own liquid. That's what's killing me. Got a link for e-liquid for dummies or something?
Seriously!
BTW - What Nicotine level do you Normally use?
So I've decided I'm going with cvapor.com
Eleaf iStick 40w Kit Temperature Control Box Mod with GS-Tank Best Matching Kit - Cvapor.com
I found the code GRE10OFF which brings the cost down to $45 which is close to getting things individually at oher sites and I can still get free shipping to Canada.

Always, always buy the smallest bottle you can find--3 or 5 ml, if possible, 10 ml tops... I have a box in my closet labeled "taste is subjective"...
That's so funny, I have a Jewelry Bag that hangs in my closet. I call that the "Deep Steep". Basically where I put everything that is not vapeable to me...
Bought a 10ml bottle to try. Thanks! I just spent $80 at Halo for 4 bottles and it will be nice to reduce this monthly spending with reaper blend and dyi juice.
Like I mentioned earlier. What some DIY-ers do is buy Nicotine Base at the mg/ml level that they vape at and then just add some Flavoring and or Sweetener.
Not Recommending this company (although I have heard Good Things about them). Just posting it so you can get an Idea of cost of buying Nicotine Base in 6mg/ml
3mg/mL - 36mg/mL Nicotine Base - Nude Nicotine
Of course, you will need some Flavoring and or Sweetener. So for maybe 25 Bucks more you would have the Raw Ingredients to make about 500ml of Finished e-Liquids in a Handful of different Flavors.
Reaper Blend is FAR superior to anything Halo has... and Halo's tobaccos are actually pretty good. I think you'll be pleased.
For DIY, just stand by and be prepared for a bit of trial and error until you get your desired mix figured out. Once you do, it's easy to replicate a successful mix. Also, DIY saves money, but when you are getting started, you'll have some startup costs like VG, PG, nic base, and flavoring. The flavoring is the only part that's a steadily recurring expense... the VG, PG, and nic bases last a while.
Or you can try your hand at self extracted NETs... I do a little of that, but ultimately it's no cheaper than buying NET concentrates.
Has anyone compared the GS 1.2Ohm pure cotton with the 1.2Ohm BCC pure cotton (used in eg the GS16)?
I imagine it should work quite well. Does the coils (not the heads!) have the same diameter?

Not sure of the coil diameter... haven't broken any of mine apart. Makes sense (for mass manufacturimg purposes) that these 1.2 ohm coil wraps are identical to the GS Air 1.2 ohm coil wraps. The wicking holes are substantially larger on the BCC coils than on the older BDC coils... maybe 600-800% larger... really. They do wick well, but don't have anywhere near the amount of wicking that the GS Air coils have, and the advertised 20 watt capability is a bit generous... they'll do 20 watts with a 50/50 or thinner juice, but not with anything much heavier. They'll do max VG, but at something like 15 watts max. That said, they DO perform tons better than the older BDC coils, all around.Has anyone compared the GS 1.2Ohm pure cotton with the 1.2Ohm BCC pure cotton (used in eg the GS16)?
