I bought the new 20 watt MINI istick and GS AIR MS based on this glowing review here:

https://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/f...ery-nice-starter-tank-or-stealth-vape.672128/

In that thread its claimed this combo can work with fairly high VG well above the bottom limit of 8 watts regardless of mean voltage or not. I owned an iStick 30, and skipped the OLD 20 watt iStick due to mean voltage. I added some distilled water, and it's not burning or dry hitting, of course the flavor is lost, but this seems to indicate the max VG juice is not feeding well in this tank with the cotton 1.2 atties. Guess I'll have to get some 50/50 juice just for this setup, most of my juice is higher in VG for my Subtanks etc. I bought this as its tiny for a pocket, and it's more powerful then the really old 5 volt, 10 watt max iStick MINI, I still have and used with the ego threaded clearos like the Aspire K1, but it was like sucking through a straw, but never a burnt or dry hit, that's why I upgraded to the newer 20w version, and this tiny tank.

But..but.. the review said it works with the 1.5 ohm coil.. and high VG works I tried it.
When that review came out there where no 1.2 ohm coils out yet..

I tried the 1.2 coils and their not for me.. A rebuilt 1.5 ohm single coil with rayon is the way to go for me..

You would have to read the whole thread, as well as links to the OP's other updated reviews. Basically he switched to the cotton 1.2 ohm coils when they came out and did a YouTube video with iStick and this tank with the 1.2's. It's not a big deal I just have to use juices with less VG.

Let us know how it works out for you. I'm curious.

I would also try the 1.5 Ohm coils - like you mentioned in the other thread - if 50/50 PG/VG doesn't do it for you. If I'm interpreting Bursardo's charts correctly the 20w iSticks are more controllable with higher resistance coils. When I was using my 20 regularly, I was mostly running 1.7-1.9 Ohm coils.

Good morning Airheads.
Thought maybe I was starting to get a little better until I got up and cleaned the bathroom. I think I need some more rest... :(
Cleaning the bathroom has that effect on me, even on a good day.
Sorry you're not feeling better. :(

Thanks IMRs. Decided to kick back for a little while and put on Jurassic World before tackling anything else. Mom's coming up tomorrow so I gotta get the place presentable. o_O

Thanks Cheech.
It's definitely not one of my favorite chores. :nah:
Cleaning has been somewhat neglected this week because of insomnia attacks. I have just had no energy. No doubt, the lack of sleep wore down my immune system so it made it easier for me to catch whatever it was that was going around at work. It's this whole domino effect. :glare:

Risking the wrath of the airhead crew...I slightly prefer the 1.2 coils over the 1.5's...only slightly mind...better taste for me...opinion may change is a caveat...

Anyone know how much the gs air m actually holds filled right up? I'm going through a tank in 6 hours!
