I've watched the videos and have tried to do exactly the same but I guess I'm just all thumbs. Just can't get the darn coils to go back together and fire up.
Never mind.....I've watched the videos and have tried to do exactly the same but I guess I'm just all thumbs. Just can't get the darn coils to go back together and fire up.
Hey excellent info, thank you! I just saw a great review on youtube that said the GS Air produced great flavor as well:Stick around, David -- Nautilus or GS Air, you are more than welcome here! I was an exclusive Nautilus mini user until I tried the Airs. (Specifically the GSAir "M".) The Air coils last SO much longer and can be rebuilt, the tanks are less expensive, and the "M" tanks hold about 4 ML so there is less refilling. I am completely satisfied with them. My Nautilus tanks were fine, but the COILS drove me almost batty. Some of my juices tasted way off after only 4 to 6 ML. Just my experience, but since the Airs are so cheap, I hope you will try at least one and compare.
Nice to meet you!
Question for you Eleaf GS Air fans - have any of you actually tried the new 1.2 ohm organic cotton coils (vertical single coil) from the factory? And if you also have an Aspire Nautilus or Mini with the current organic cotton overcritical coils, which has the best flavor? Can you get a tight draw on the GS Air like you can the nautilus?
I have two nautilus mini's, an aspire carbon fiber adjustable voltage battery, just got an Istick 30 W that i absolutely love (get the cover for it, its slippery to hold if you don't!), and reading this thread now I want to try the GS Air with the organic cotton coils, but would like others opinions on the GS Air vs Nautilus Mini. FYI, I use mostly naturally extracted tobacco ejuice (NETs), running around 18 mg or so nic, up to 24, so I am not a cloud chaser, and care more about the cigarette replacement mouth to lung hits. The mini's are growing on me now that I've cut the nic down to around 18 or 16 mg, good flavor.
Also, if any of you have tried the new TC style bats and coils, what's your thoughts on the facts vs the hype. Then engineer in me doubts this will really make a flavor difference
P.S. Its hard to find reviews in this thread you guys are like a GS Air social club lol.![]()
Hey excellent info, thank you! I just saw a great review on youtube that said the GS Air produced great flavor as well:
Yes, the coils have large wick openings, when nautilus went to the cotton they enlarged the holes as well (not oblong like the GS air), apparently for cotton you need more surface area for wicking. Not sure how you keep it from gurgling with the big openings though, mi mini's do on occassion, i just clear them if that happens.
Well thanks, if i get a GS Air I might join your club lol, at the moment I'm out of place with my Nautilus Minis, which are growing on me![]()
So...the center air tube is threaded at both ends?Thanks your for the benevolent persistance. I trust eleaf will ignore your fine suggestions. They are a strange outfit, making some nice products, while disclaiming
parental relationships with some, as if they were illegitimate offspring in
a 19th century rustic village.
As to the ability to fully disassemble the M, be careful what you wish for. I toohad tried and failed to take one apart. And then... Was out working in my hybridizing fields in full noonday sun. Placed the rig on a rock so it wouldn't leak or get broken in a pocket. Did I say the sun was hot? It was. Took a vape break, adjusted AFC and found myself holding an istick with the lower metal components of the M in one hand, a glass tube abd the top metal part, replete with drip tip, in the other. And wintergreen ejuice sliming both hands. The orings were still on both ends of the glass tube, to I just screwed everything back together, went up to the house, washed hands, reloaded the M and they all lived happily ever after. Almost.
Today was cooler, the tank was on the istick, in my pocket. Took a break from transplating, reached into the pocket, and out came many pieces. This time, the o-rings were firmly set into the top and bottom metal parts, the glass tube free of all
associated hardware. Hmmm, thoughts meself, guess I ought to screw everything back together. Easier said than done. Couldn't get the threaded center tube parts to engage, Captain Piccard. Tried everything, including a c-clamp that caused the glass to chip. Even swallowed my Yankee pride and asked her Britannic Majesty, a.k.a. La señora Fumador, to help. No dice. Learned some spicey new limey curses from Her
Ladyship. Put everything in the freezer and went to the nearest thriving metropolis,
Newcastle, pop. ~1500. Returned after a spell, found that cold didn't shrink things sufficiently, practiced the new British imprecations, studied a fully assembled M.
Eureka! There are not just two metal parts, but four.
1. Afc, which holds the coil.
2. Bottom metal ring, including a portion of the center chimney tube.
3. Top metal cap, including the upper chimeny tube portion...AND...
4. The center chimney tube cylinder, which was screwed to the top part.
Loosening that center metal tube a turn did the trick. The top and bottom pieces
now met sweetly in the middle of the glass tube, and a couple of turns locked it all nicely together, including the chipped glass.
Theree is no need to go through all of this t clean the M. Hot running water works just fine.
And they lived happily ever after?
Yep. Sorry I was so long winded. The center tube has three parts:So...the center air tube is threaded at both ends?
Learn something new every day!
Since the coils can be used in your existing tanks, we'll be waiting for your review with baited breath!My eVic is in Raleigh so I'm hoping to come home from work and find it in my mailbox. My istick 40W TC will be shipping this afternoon!! With coils. The tank may be delayed a few days but that's no biggie! I have mini nautiluses and TC coils for them plus with the coils along for the ride, I have GS-M's and MS's to use. Life is good!
Bikenstein, please be around this evening cause you know I'll have questions! Lol
And that's what keeps your posts so interesting.Yep. Sorry I was so long winded. The center tube has three parts:
—an extension on the top cap
—an extension of the bottom ring
—a center tube piece that screws on to both of the above.
If you have any trouble re-assembling an M, just look at another M and,
all puns intended, eMulate.![]()
You are more than welcome to lurk, contribute, mock and review...I've gone ahead and placed an order with sweet vapes. Hopefully will like the gs air m as much as the gs air. In the meantime I'll just keep trying on the rebuilding of coils. Sure would be nice to not have to buy replacement coils as I'm going thru 2 a week right now.
Hope it's ok if I continue to follow this thread. I've learned so much from all you kind folks.
What, you don't like Gopher?? HAHA! Way to welcome newcomers, Cheech!Will do on the air m comments and thanks for the ok to lurk!
Will do on the air m comments and thanks for the ok to lurk!
That's right, Tibs! One post a day, minimum -- doesn't even have to be on topic. Oh LOOK!we don't do ok with lurkers!
everybody's supposed to chime in at least once per day - how else are we gonna make it to 20k?![]()
