IMO, the GS Airs are nearly as good as the Naut mini as far as flavor and vapor go. I have noticed a few negatives. They use juice faster. I think it's the dual coils. They can't be fully disassembled like the Nauts. The airflow control is kinda weird but works OK. They are harder to fill with a standard dropper bottle. A needle tip works better which is not great if you like high VG juice like I do.

First off, I like both tanks. I actually love the F & V from the Airs, a LOT. Unlike you, I don't notice v-liquid being consumed at a speedier rate, and forgive me, but I thought these coils were singles. They're dualies? Cheech?

Right, they can't be fully disassembled. So far, I've had zero issue cleaning them in spite of that fact.

The AC for me hasn't been a prob, but I suspect it might be for some. I left it as it was out of the box on all of mine, and have enjoyed it that way.

The fill.... I've had the opposite experience. I find them EASIER to fill than the Naughties. That little cross bar at the top is a great indicator of the level of fluid (1), and I find that I can sneak just a tad more liquid in there just over and above it (2). I can't REALLY tell with the Naughties when I'm going to overflow and get liquid in the chimney.

I gotta fever but not for spring:facepalm:



We can all use a bit more cowbell. ;)

Hey - have any of you experienced that battery rattle that Busardo mentioned in his review of the iStick 30? I detect none in mine, but I just saw someone else mention it in another thread so I'm wondering whether it's now a standard "feature".

My first two (which I got in December 2014) have the button rattle but the one I got last month has no rattle at all. I assumed it was something they fixed in the later ones maybe ?

It's not the button rattle I was referring to. It's a BATTERY "rattle" - the sound of the battery moving around in the device - that Busardo and that guy mentioned. They can apparently hear and/or feel the battery moving around when they shake the device.

Mine has some button rattle. It doesn't bother me; the sound is minimal and I'm not in the habit of randomly shaking my iStick.

I think the battery rattle is mistaken or very rare. Otherwise it would be widely posted.
