Here is the Taifun GS II with alternative FeV style Rayon wicking.

I feel there was always too much wick that hung down into the juice wells, which is one of the recommended ways to wick it with cotton in the manual. I decided to rotate the coil 90 degrees and build it like an FeV.

Standard Taifun coil mounting.

Wicked with a nice piece of dm Viskose.

Upper chamber and feed cap installed, the Rayon is just a few mm below the holes so I will need a feeder tube and the supplied PTFE ones will work fine for now.

Random Rayon threads all cleaned off, the tank filled and tested for leaking.

Since the coil now sits higher than a standard Taifun build, the flavor is a little different. The good thing about the Taifun GS II is the upper chamber has airflow as well if you choose. Closing off the bottom airflow and opening the upper ones directly across from the coil gives an FeV VS type of vape.

I will see how well the PTFE tubes stay in place and might switch it back to small mesh feeders.

Has anyone bought or is waiting for the new Taifun Vireo? Its for the GS2, looks beautiful, but would be limited to that atty and other slim ones. Uses 16000 size batteries so its longer than 14500s.

That looks really nice but maybe too long for my liking. Wonder what the total height is?

Exactly my thoughts.... I dont feel comfortable when they start to look like a wand or club :)

I use my GS2 on my 20mm MCR, its slim and still uses my favorite 18500 batteries.

@dwcraig1 et al, which is the better made GS 2? I know I asked before, but wanted to verify with most current info (TIA).

I saw this one, I think this is the one you all recommended before? the 22mm version?

Last, is anyone in the USA selling these at a competitive price? (obviously clone ok)

I would say it's really close to the authentic, never seen one from US vendor as yet.
I have never seen another brand in person..so

Can anyone here compare the taifun gs2 to the aromamizer w/velocity deck?
After watching Mike Vapes video I can say that the two are in different camps.....pretty sure I want one.
Just tell me where.
