Recommend A Replacement Tank for the iClear 30?

[Lee Miro]

Hi guys,

My boyfriend's old iClear 30 needs replacing, so I've been reading the boards to learn what's new. I see that the Aspire nautilus is still ranked high by many users, but I found others noting that it has a tight draw. I'm hoping you can advise, since I'm the self-appointed researcher between the two of us.

He's been happy with the iClear 30 (2.1 ohm coils). Most important factors--he likes an easy draw and lots of vape. He won't fiddle much with equipment. He doesn't care about a direct lung hit and isn't too fussy about temperature. He never chain vapes, preferring to take a puff or two, then put it down for several minutes, then repeat. The budget is about $30. Is the Aspire nautilus a good match or will the draw be tighter than the iClear?

On another note, I just want to thank all the old timers here. I found the boards almost four years ago. You guys clued me in to a new world (and saved me from spending several hundred dollars on some kind of wimpy kit. . .Green Smoke, maybe? Lol). Because of your help, I got quit and stayed quit.

Honestly I got just as much use/like out of my EVOD BCC as I did the iClear. Maybe it was my setup at the time, but a few other vapers I know in person also wound up switching to them for a nice cheap easy tank. Not sure what they go for now since I moved on but there were like 5$ a piece at MtBakerVapor last I purchased.

Cool, I'll look into the EVOD BCC. He had a Kranger Pro Tank II but never liked it quite as much as the iClear.

 

[Cheechako]

He might want to look into the GS Air from eleaf, dual coil, 1.5 ohms and very affordable!
You can look at it here...
Tank runs about $10 and coils are about $10 for 5.
Good luck in your hunt!

If you do consider evod, look at glass version. They cost a couple dollars more than plastic but IMO taste and quality well worth price difference.

 

[Lee Miro]

Hey guys, Thanks for your help! I finally have time to investigate. The EVOD BCC looks like a great value, but is it less vape than the iClear? He has the Kanger Pro II and doesn't dig it as much.

 

[Lee Miro]

The GS Air sounds great from the looks of old threads. Big vapor production, yeah?

 

[Cheechako]

The GS Air is a great tank. Very affordable and a variety of coils the will work with a variety of the GS Air tanks.
Once you buy the tank, you can try TC or Sub-ohm, cotton or silica wicks. Down the road if you decide to recoil,
it's not that difficult. The 1.5 ohm dual coils will produce as much flavorful vapor as the iclear line. I used the
iclear 16 and 30, Protank II and the Evods many moons ago and now use the GS Airs exclusively.

Is it the best tank around, probably not. Will it produce massive clouds, unlikely. But all things considered,
it's a great bang for the buck. Lots of folks have switched from Nautilus' to the GS Air.

Click on the link at the bottom of my response and take a peek at my blog...might give you some insight into
this tank system.

Cool pics! And that totally does help me get a picture of what's going on inside. I think we'll try both the Pure Cotton and the TC heads. In truth, he vapes unflavored juice, so flavor is a non-issue. It's really down to clouds and ease of use.

Good luck and I hope he becomes a big of a fan as lots of the folks around here of the GS Air line!
Check in on the GS Air thread and let us know how it goes!

Thanks, Cheechako! Appreciate your help.

Having a hard time finding it in stock at a US supplier. Is the GS Air 2 just as good?

 

[Cheechako]

It is designed like the GS Air line, just smaller and designed for the istick Basic.
It will take any of the coils the GS Air tanks will and the .75 ohm coils that come with it are
getting high marks for performance.
Vapecrawler is a great resource to find tanks and coils: Vapecrawler

 

[Lee Miro]

vapecrawler. . . brilliant! I've never seen it.
And thank you for letting me know that the GS Air compatible tanks also work with the Air 2. It's these details that make shopping so tricky! Your guidance is saving me a lot of confusion.

 

[Cheechako]

Vapecrawler can save you a lot of time and grief! I think that's one of the selling points for
eleaf's system of tanks, flexibility and price. But, then again, I'm a fan boy for their tanks.
Hopefully one of the suppliers will have the tanks and coils in that you would like to try.
Some of them have discounts you can Google too!

 

[Lee Miro]

Yes! It is saving me time and grief as we speak!

Boyfriend looked up his battery (MVP iTaste) and found people don't recommend sub ohms with it, so I'm back to looking at the original.

 

[Lee Miro]

Success! With vapecrawler, I was able to find the GS Air plus a 5-pack of heads shipped for $15! Thanks a million.

 

[Cheechako]

Wow! That is a great deal! Which coils did you opt for? Which GS Air model did you get?
I'm just full of questions...

 

[Lee Miro]

I like questions! I got the GS Air Dual Coil Clearomizer, which I think is the original?
I got the Air Cotton Replacement Coils at 1.2 ohms, since we don't think sub-ohms are gonna work well with the iTaste battery. (Maybe we'll experiment when he upgrades that.)
From Rocky Mountain Vapor with 25% off "President" and free shipping. I was pretty shocked at the price.
