Yes, that's right - you got one, too! I don't think I have heard anyone have anything negative to say, really.
I think I see one in my future - just gathering more opinions and needing a little nudge, I guess.
Right now my isticks are all going strong. Even the original 20s. I put adapters on them early and haven't had any issues with stripping and they all have good battery life. I just know they can't last forever and I would prefer replaceable batteries down the road. Besides, the pink one is so pretty!

Consider yourself nudged! Get it! You won't regret it!!! :laugh:

It's so little and cute and comfy in your hand. It will be like Velcro... stuck to your hand and don't forget replaceable batteries.

Get the Pink! Get the Pink! :p

Darn, I'm behind on my info! I got a deal on the iStick TC100W, but it is even heavier the the Evic VT and taller to boot! Should have held out for the Pico! I love the GS-Tank, though I use rebuilt TC coils in Ti around .33 ohms! The only thing that comes close for flavor to the GS-Tank is the Aspire K1, which is only 1 1/2 ml of ejuice and has an ego connector, but they do not leak EVER! their coils rebuild exactly like the normal air coils, and they are cheap, but almost twice the height of the GS-Tank and skinny.
One day you have to put together a tutorial blog and share your goldmine of information!

You're getting there, for sure, Jingles. We should form a coil society! The first step is admitting you have a "problem".
I have 6 packs of GS Air coils. Do I qualify as a hoarder of coils yet?
Problem?!?!? Jingles admits she is just as prepared and frugal as you are. :thumbs:
One never knows when those stinkin' zombies are going to come! Shotguns, canned goods and coils...that's preparation!

Considering I use my coils for about a month until the ohms start rising and they don't taste good any more, I think I have the right amount for now! I have 8 different GS type tanks going right now, so it's not like I am using only one tank for a whole month.

You have a lot of Air coils?? I like you.
Certain people here say I have a small coil collecting problem that borders on hoarding. I think it is normal. You're my new best friend. :lol::lol:

You don't want to see my vape hoard! My family thinks I need therapy... :blush:

@JoAnnW the 1.2 ohm coils haven't had glowing reviews on here...most folks had some trouble with them.
Inconsistent vape, short life and low performance.

Right. I just installed my first one :facepalm:, out of curiosity, and not loving it at all. It's just... I don't know, blah? Meh?

Now, about those Elaef coils--have we confirmed that the original ones (1.5Ω) are the the only dual horizontal coils? The 1.2Ω and the .75Ω ones are single vertical coils? And if so, why would the latter be any better the former? :blink:

I came home yesterday to two packages; one from Ahlusion and the 2nd with my new Pico. My husband just said "Thank god your vape mail arrived, I was worried you were low in supplies". :rolleyes:
:lol::lol::lol:
Does your husband vape, @Chemtx ? Mine does, and it makes things much easier. I just convince him that HE needs what I WANT. HE got that really good Carrot Cake Liquid today that HE said HE wanted. I like it. :thumbs: Happy wife .....

1.5 are the only dual horizontal coils, some ads say they are cotton, but that's just the liner between the cap and the coils.
I wouldn't pass up 1.5 coils for the .75, but they are a nice vape. I haven't tried the 1.2 coils and have no interest as all the reviews were like yours.
I don't know if they do something different with the .75 coils than the 1.2's, but they do seem to work better than has been reported for the 1.2 coils.
I only ended up with the .75 coils on a fluke as the price was too good to pass up on them and the istick basic. I haven't read any bad reviews here on the
.75 coils either. Hopefully, we'll get more input before long. :rolleyes:
Oh yeah, @Robert Cromwell is a fan of the .75 and he is the frugal vaper! :)

Yeah, that's odd. There are so many good vertical coils on the market--Kanger makes nice ones, Aspire BVC coils are nice (I use them in my Subtank ;)); the Eleaf should be identical in construction, so I can't figure out what's up with that.

The one I'm vaping on right now is really sub-par.

No he doesn't but he has other "hobbies" and so I don't get too much grief. He smokes an occasional cigar with a glass of scotch. Ick!

I love your wifely skills.. :lol::lol::lol: Carrot cake sounds mighty tastey. I wonder if I can convince the hubby how good that will probably smell..hum. :D Where did you find Carrot Cake if I might ask?

The 1.5 aren't pure cotton and the just seemed to wick better than the 1.2 pure cotton coil. My experience is the 1.5 coils lasted a much longer time as well. However, the .75 coils have proved to be pretty long lasting and I've not experienced the same burn out that I had with the 1.2 coils. I don't know why that is; maybe the tweaked them for the new basic kit?

I would love to hear more opinions about the M3M (Melo 3 Mini). I'm looking to dabble in STL TC vaping in the privacy of my own home.

I love the 1.5 coils in the Air - M - MS - and Tank. I don't have much luck with cotton in VV/VW mode, though my only experience with that is in my soon to be retired/sold Nautilus Minis. I can sure ruin a cotton coil right quick.

I know I used to defend the Nautilus Mini but after getting a bunch of Eleaf tanks and adjusting my vaping style, the Nautilus just doesn't have the airflow I want.

So please, and I asked in the Pico thread, comment on the M3M if you have one. This is an Eleaf tank thread after all. :)
