To accompany its boxes, Eleaf offers beginners a simple, effective clearomizer with a complete choice in terms of resistances. Indeed you will find resistances above the ohm, below, compatible or not with the TC modes.

Reviewer's comments on physical characteristics and perceived quality

This clearomizer presents well. Compact, correctly assembled this product is part of a boilerplate style which finds its inspiration in Kangertech Protank, Emow style products ...
In stainless steel and pyrex you can put the juice of your choice. The air flow ring is naturally located on the base.

Gs tank air flow
The only downside, in my opinion, comes from the fact that the tank cannot be disassembled. Cleaning is therefore not easy, and of course, if it falls, you will not be able to change the pyrex tank which is not badly exposed to shocks.

Despite this unfortunate point, the Eleaf GS is positioned correctly in view of its price category.

Functional features

  • Adjustable positive plot? No, a flush mount can only be guaranteed through an adjustment of the positive pad of the battery or the mod on which it will be installed
  • Presence of air flow regulation? Yes, and variable
  • Diameter in mms maximum of the air regulation possible: 4
  • Minimum diameter in mms of the air regulation possible: 0.1
  • Positioning of the air regulation: From below and benefiting the resistances
  • Atomization chamber type: Conventional / reduced
  • Heat dissipation of the product: Normal

Reviewer's comments on functional features

The GS Tank therefore works with proprietary resistors. You will have a wide choice of resistance values ​​and of course the choice between classic and TC. The price of the latter varies between 2 and 3 Euros.
The air flow changes from tight to air thanks to the easily adjustable ring, the latter is neither too loose nor too hard.
The atomizer and its resistors allow you to vary the power on a large scale, with a max of 40 watts with TC resistors for example.
So again nothing revolutionary but a simple and accessible product.

  • Drip tip type: 510 Only
  • Presence of a Drip-Tip? Yes, the vaper can immediately use the product
  • Length and type of drip-tip present: Medium

Reviewer's comments on the Drip-Tip

The supplied drip-tip is made of plastic, covered with chromed metal. It correctly finishes the tank design. If it doesn't suit you you can of course use your favorite 510 drip-tip.

Reviewer's comments on conditioning

As usual, Eleaf products are presented in a simple box, in very rigid cardboard. The atomizer is wedged in a compact foam. Two ni200 resistors accompany the atomizer, and of course, a small booklet with, in English, the explanations of the operation of your clearomizer, even if the latter and simple, no French for this product, which is rare at Eleaf. In short, a presentation up to the category.

Reviewer's comments on the use of the product

This GS Tank is very easy to use. We fill by unscrewing the base, we operate taking care to avoid putting it in the chimney. We soak the resistance with a few drops and that's it, it works.
The GS is compact and forms a perfect set-up in this respect with an Istick TC 40. The atomizer consumes, but filling is simple so no worries.
The only regret comes from the fact that we cannot disassemble the tank, so cleaning and especially drying is impractical.
Other than that detail, it's a pretty good product for beginners.

Recommendations for use

  • What type of mod is it advisable to use this product with? Electronic
  • What mod model is it recommended to use this product with? Box or mod

The mood ticket of the reviewer

This GS Tank is therefore a simple and accessible clearomiser which does not suffer from any crippling defects. It is aimed at experienced beginners. The biggest flaw comes from this fixed pyrex tank which does not facilitate cleaning and of course condemns your product in the event of a fall.

For me, it shines especially when combined with a resistance in Ni200, it will allow as many people as possible to try their hand at temperature control easily, and for a reasonable price.

Thank you Kumulus Vape
