Good morning Airheads! Isn't it funny how our preferences change? When I went looking for an upgrade from my beloved protank 2 minis, the gs air m and ms just hit the scene. Thanks to y'all I got a couple, liked them, changed my drip tips and wow, in love. First leaned towards the ms because I change flavors a lot. However one thing I've recently realized, reading the forum can lead to chasing the latest and greatest if your not careful. I've since bought a Kabuki and played around with ISub tanks. The Kabuki is great, but cost prohibitive if you like to switch out flavor like I do. My favorite tank right now is the gs m, still the champ! If the newer gs tank held a little bit more juice it might edge her out. ;)
Chemtx-I am seriously considering the Kabuki tank. If you had to do it over, would you still purchase a Kabuki? I am like you and flavor switch all day long. I keep 8-10 set-ups going all with different flavors. I don't understand these people who leave the house with only one mod and one flavor. I take at least 6 with me! I tend to take a couple of puffs on one, put it down and pick up another, rinse and repeat. I don't want to get hooked on a $90.00 tank and then feel like I "need" multiples of it. I can't afford that!

not to confuse you even further - lots of good reviews coming in for the aromamizer rdta with the 2-post deck - ready-made coils also available

Wow, look how bad the flash is on the juice holes on the clone, if that is any indication of the quality I will spend the extra $10 for the authentic.

Ordered a couple from FT for $24 after the XMAS discount.

I'm a fan of most eleaf products. The only thing I had problems from was the first version of the istick 20w. The USB charging port broke off inside it and I can't find a hex bit small enough to take it apart. It lasted 8months. I have a ipv 3 and found that it's a eleaf product too. So is sigelei. I think the company is called Greenleaf technology Inc

I've had my Kabuki for about a month and purchased the limited addition from MVB with a coupon for about $80.00, it has the blue rings and drip tip. I can't see myself purchasing multiple of these tanks due to the cost but I don't regret buying the one I have. I think the taste from it is great and it enhances the flavor as advertised. I have also found it will expose the flaws in juice quality. Because if this, I've decided the Kabuki will house Ahlusion juice only.

I'm on the fence with the aspire naughty coils. I purchased bvc and don't think they last as long as the little gs air coils. I ruined one last night because the coil got stuck and I had to breakout needle nose pliers to unscrew the thing. After that the connection was shot. I've read stuck coils is a thing with these tanks. I'm looking to find a nice replacement for the drip tip and it might be my go-to tank. Oh and it doesn't hold much more juice than the gs air ms, unfortunately.

I'm a flavor switcher too! I am almost ashamed to say I have 5 of the gs air m, 4 of the gs air ms, 3 of the new gs tank, 5 iSub and the Kabuki in some sort of rotation. Not all in one day of course!

You are among like minded friends on the multiple tank thing, Chemtx. I switch flavors a LOT -- but I try to keep it under a dozen. We have a "don't ask, don't tell" policy.

Hi Jingles! I can't see myself paying 90 bucks for a tank that only uses mass-produced Aspire coils--no matter how good that tank may be. But that's just me. If you love Aspire coils, why don't you get a Cero Tank? It's well liked and takes both Aspire and Kanger coils.

Sounds like the same path I took.
Loved the Protank Mini II, found this thread and tried the GS Air...no more shopping around for the best tank.
No more futzing with RTA's, leaky Protanks nor tricky wicking subtanks.
Fantastic tanks and coils for half the price of anything else on the market? I'm there! :thumbs:
GS Tank is a good tank, but like Chemtx said, failure on the capacity. :(

I still futz with my RTAs... :lol: When I feel like it.

Hi Katya, That's the problem. I don't love Aspire coils. I like the GSAir coils much more. I've been lurking over on the ProVape forum page and reading the hype about the Kabuki tank, so I am curious. I must say my last batch of Aspire coils does seem much better than what I had in the past. I still have a Nautilus tank and a couple of mini Nautiluses. 95% of the time though, I am using my GS Airs.

I don't love Aspire coils
if the love is missing because they don't last as long as the GS coils, then really, don't bother ;)

if it's because of their performance in the flavor department and if you like dessert flavors, then you should reconsider.
I use my Kabuki Tanks for the dessert flavors because they bring out the nuances out better than a GS coil (imho).
My favourite juices right now are from "The Real" (NY Cheesecake and Lemon Cheesecake) and with the Kabuki the flavor is much better than in the GS. I experienced that with almost all buttery/creamy/dessert juices I tried.
The GS on the other hand is my choice for the more fruity and minty types of juices, like Hawk Sauce, anything from El Diablo, or GWAR's Spew. Those juices taste better in the GS for me.

So in a nutshell: I have both tanks and am VERY satisfied. If I had to choose only one I'd go with the Kabuki but I'm glad I don't have to choose as I love the GS almost as much.

Hmm- I do love my dessert flavors, mostly Ahlusion, The Plume Rooms and Nicotickets. I have noticed that they lose their flavors quicker than my fruit and mint flavors in the GS Airs. I appreciate your help especially since you have used both tanks...not sure my wallet does though...

Greetings airheads.

Waiting on vape mail, with my amongst other goodies, my gs tank tank and a box of 1.2 coils.

Still love the gs air m. Overall as good as the Nautilis.

The 1.5 coils do seem to last longer. That is based on one coil still going after at least 25 ml of juice.

I use the nautilis drip tips in the gs air m...

I didn't think I liked the Aspire coils that much until I put one in my Cerotank. Whoa baby! It was awesome! What is more...it stayed awesome just over 6 weeks of heavy heavy use! I was amazed! I had gotten a Davide tank by Anyvape and was all excited, thinking it'd be like the Cero and improve the taste of my juice. Wrong. I put an Aspire coil in it and it was not. good. at. all. Hot, metallic, funky tasting. I left it in the tank and abandoned the idea. When the Aspire in the Cero finally died a gentle death (flavor finally was so diminished it was Time) I put that gnarly coil I had in the Davide that had been sitting on my coffee table for a few days into the Cero. Cue Heavenly music and glowing lights! The Cero took that miserable coil and made it into a joy...it's working beautifully with excellent flavor in the right tank! Just my :2c:

I also adore the GS Air M and have had coils last in it over a month! Still good flavor, still making glorious clouds. I want to try the GS tank, but am discouraged that it doesn't hold as much juice.....

Oh yeah..the Cero takes Kanger dual coils, too.
