No leaking or flooding here either. It really has amazing performance. I've set it from 5W to 10W and up to 15W and never got a burnt taste. I like it best at just under 10W.

I think its the best tank for the istick.

Watts settings on which iStick?

Since the 20Watt-iStick uses MEAN and the 30Watt-iStck uses RMS...the setting can differ.

(eg. my Nauty's with 1.8Ω BVC's vape the same (to me) at 7W on my 20Watt-iStick as they do at 11W on my 30Watt-iStick.)

She's a bit of a juice guzzler, although seeing the holes in the coils it shouldn't surprise me.

These coils (like the Aspire BVC's) apparently can handle higher Watts. The upside...more vapor. The downside...use more joose.

I originally got a couple Nauty Mini's (2ml.). Loved them but seemed like I was filling them continuously. So I switched over to the original Nauty's (5ml.).

The GS Air is 2.5ml. Does Eleaf make a "bigger capacity" version???

Congratulations, TeaRose! Isn't it amazing how the quality of products has changed over the last 4 years! Kudos to you for starting to vape before most people had even heard of it.

I have a 20 watt and a 30 watt iStick. The GS Air works great at all watts so it doesn't really matter which device I use or if I remember to change the wattage. Right now I've got it on the 30 watt iStick and have it set at 6 watts. That's one of the reasons I like it so much.....it just works! I prefer to keep it at a lower setting so it doesn't eat as much juice. Yet it still has great flavor and tons of vapor.

I changed coils last night so I could try Lemon Cream in the tank. I did remember to save the old coil and I'll try rinsing it out. So I'm using my third coil and it's working great. The Lemon Cream tastes awesome, too! I've been trying flavors in it that I've never liked in anything except a carto tank before and I really like them. I know a lot of people have never liked carto tanks but I've always loved them. I never taste the filler. These coils are even better.

I ordered 2 more tanks and another 20 watt iStick. It works great at 15 watts. I keep it a bit lower since I'm a chain vapor and it does start getting hot if I keep it at 15. I go more for flavor and increasing the watts doesn't give me better flavor. It actually stays the same. It does put out more vapor.

I rinsed my tank out with water last night. Let it sit for 30 minutes and it was good to refill.



Ive got tons of tanks. Including a very large collection of expensive carto tanks. I still use and love them but the GS Air is just amazing. So much easier to fill, works great at all recommended Watts. I can't do that with a carto tank! That's one of the reasons why this works so great on the iStick. It runs hotter at lower settings so I have to readjust for my carto tanks. With the GS Air it works great at all settings. I used to take a couple of egos with an EVOD or Protank when out and about since I don't like carrying around my Provaris and expensive carto tanks. Now it's the iStick and the GS Air. But I also use it constantly at home while I never use an EVOD at home.

I also have a lot of AeroTank Megas, GeniTank Megas, Nautilus original and mini, and 2 Kanger sub tanks on the way. I had ordered the large size before they came out with the smaller versions. Neither one has arrived since they got stuck in California for some reason. If I'd found the GS Air first it would have saved me a lot of money. Not to mention all of the different coils I have to keep in stock.

I think this will be my tank with the istick. I have been tempted by all the subohm ravings but frankly I only want a tank that works well, will run up to 15 W, and that does not leak, gurgle or give me a hassle if the coils are cheap enough I don't have to fiddle with rebuilding. I can occasionally rebuild if I want but I just want ONE tank that works well where I can pop in a fresh coil and go. Do you think I have found it with this?

By the way , I only have the istick 20watt.....so to go to one of the subohm tanks I then have to purchase a higher wattage device ......and on and on. LOL This looks very appealing.

"IMPORTANT NOTE: The adjustable airflow did not work properly in testing, and other pre-release reviews online have found the same results. Due to this, we can make no guarantee the adjustable airflow will work."

Kat - is this quote off the Eleaf website , or what does this reference?

NICE. I am pulling the trigger right now. Dear Vapor Gods, please be the answer to my prayers for vape simplicity. I stink at building coils, and the protank coils were a train wreck unless rebuilt. I don't want to sub ohm and upgrade to 50W device.... just want decent vapor production, decent taste, and no hassle vape.

PLEASE everyone tell me that this will work. I don't expect perfection.

they're here! 5 minutes of use, and I can honestly say: *love* the GS Air! :wub:

I've been using the Mow Mega- has been my only tank/clearo to use on the iStick 20w, until now.

much more lightweight than the Mega, great airflow, which is easy to adjust, and the AFC screw does work as intended.

rinsed out the tank and base, dripped juice into the wick holes, did some primer puffs and was perfect on the first hit! flavor is there, vapor is there.. stellar inexpensive vape!

glad I got two of them and ordering more tomorrow! this makes the iStick so much better to use, IMO, and looks way better using an AFC adapter instead of the eGo adapter and thread cover.

Can everyone who has one post what power they are running it at?

I'm probably pushing it. I run 3.9v - 4.1v / 10.1w - 11.2w.

I have mine on my 20 watt iStick and its set at 3.1V/6.2W. Your settings are fine. It works with a wide range of settings. It just depends on where you find your sweet spot.

Yay! I'm so glad to hear that you love it. I'm hoping that my others arrive today.

Yes, this is it. :)


You have no idea how happy I will be if you are correct. I will buy 5 more and sing the praises from the mountain tops. Keeping my wife and I going with low end gear has me very close to either A) Buying cigarettes B) Spending $500 on more vape gear that might not work or C) Losing my last bit of sanity. Not much left so it would be easy to put me over. :laugh:
