A few of the vape shops around here do that if you want to spend 30-50 bucks,Hint that much money will buy lots of wire to play with ;)
I kinda figured they would shy away from showing how to rebuild that kind of coil though. Since they sell them. But come to think of it, no B&Ms around here sell the Airs or the coils for them.
And 10-4 on that buying a lot of wire.

I noticed RMV has the GS Tank in stock now. At $12.50 minus 25% that ain't bad. I don't know why I feel like I have to explain things to the better half when I decide to pull the trigger on stuff like that. Unless I'm afraid she'll squeeze one off toward me.

Thanks! I've really don't hardly know what to ask...I've looked at your blog and it's lovely, but there are an awful lot of gaps need filling in for a newb like me. I will try reading it again. Maybe I'm only looking at the first page? I know it's the "Bible" of GS air coil building. Kinda Greek to me...but I will try again! :)

One step at a time? Just for fun:). So often the first step is the most difficult.

The first step is to get the cap off. Do you have an M or MS? Cheech's video shows the best way to pop that off. Oh how I struggled with those caps on my first rebuilds. I even destroyed one. Cheech's M method makes it so easy!

I put my coil in an old evod base attached to an ego battery for that step.

I used a jeweler's screwdriver to remove the .15 TC coil top,
same principle will apply to the 1.2 coil caps
Insert the drive and leverage to the side

Cap will pop right off

I used the same principle to reinstall the cap as the regular 1.5 coil cap, except I used the drip tip.

Bummer! They were there earlier this evening! Not there now, though.
You probably got the last ones.

Heads up Airheads!! Be very careful when ordering the 1.5 coils. I think some people are reading through too fast and wind up ordering the wrong ones (1.2's). I was just told that Sweetvapes and evape.us has them in stock. :)

I buy my gs air coils from sweet-vapes they have the 1.2 and the 1.5 $9.50 for a 5 pack
I was getting mine a Sweet Vapes, too. Don't know what the deal was/is. I got a couple of boxes from some friends, about 6 from Sweet Vapes, and 2 from Discount Vapers (who are out of them now). I have no idea what coils came from where. I think the really good ones I started with in July were from my friends, since I didn't buy any until after I'd tried them. No idea where they were "from" however.
