sonicflowjoe has had some success re-building them Jerri:

Andy says they last for ages as well:

If you can rebuild an occ @jerri I'd say you should be able to manage an Isub coil, its a piece of cake once you get in to it. That's the trickiest bit as they are press fitted together. Simplest way I've found to do it is to get two smallish but strong screwdrivers, one that will fit through the wick holes and one that will fit through the air slot at the bottom. Then just work them in opposite directions whilst giving a little wiggle and it will pop apart. To get it together again just get it all lined up and apply pressure with something solid.

I might try and get it together to write a little guide at some point with pics as you get a great vape off these tanks and a bonus that the heads CAN be rebuilt if you put your mind to it.

Don't want to be responsible for you shelling out on another new tank but... Just giving you the info since I was tagged in.

You must resist.... RESIST.. .lol

I will have to resist for now haha. In the past 6 weeks I've bought a smok m80, a lemo 2, cool fire 4, 40w iStick and two subtank minis plus about £80 of juice.

In my defence before that is not bought any new vape gear since last year.

I hadn't even heard of the iSub G to be honest but hermans in Liverpool were using them as tester tanks and I was really really impressed by the vape quality.

Thanks for the info I appreciate it.

Well. I thought I had it cracked with the OC coil but the longer I vaped the more the harshness came back.

I currently feel like I've just gone on a bender and smoked 40 stinkies. You know that morning after the night before when you'd got trashed and smoked way way too many. Then woke up with a scratchy throat. That's what I feel like after two hours.

Sad because the liquid is absolutely lush but there's not much I can do.

I have tried out a few custard flavours, but settled on the Isle of Custards range.
Big plus, is that as I am a local he often delivers out my way so I can sometimes get my juices hand delivered, plus I reckon that 100ml of juce for about £20 is pretty good too, but only bought the 30ml's so far.

But, since they are a local supplier, I like to support them, but they seem to be doing quite well with their juices, so that's good..

The iSub I have (the pc tank) is one that I love, and want to get the iSub G, purely because of the pyrex tank, not that I have had any problems with the plastic one - so far.

But, with my current back problem (which I have not had for many years) I get a sort of metalic taste and am wondering if it is these strong pain killers I am taking have anything to do with it.
It also means that my taste buds are a bit shot, so many of my favourites and now tainted and don't taste quite as nice as they used to, which is annoying the heck out of me....

I've tried a few of them myself.

The plain vanilla custard which I'm currently vaping. The apple pie and custard and the custard doughnut. I've just ordered 100ml of the custard doughnut.

The cutlass custard is nice but my usual is daredevils custard and it's around £10 less delivered than the cutlass so whilst cutlass is nice it's not better than daredevils and not worth £10 more.

The custard doughnut is absolutely stunning though.

I can only conclude it is the nic in the ace of vapes yoda babies. But I'm reluctant to shell out more on 0 nic just in case it's not and because I've just dropped to 3mg and stocked up on 3mg liquid. I don't want to start using 0mg and have all the 3mg then make me dizzy as happened with the 6mg when I got some 3mg.

Jerri it might be worth getting some MTS vape wizard and adding a few drops to your eliquid. I add 2% to all my tobacco mixes and it really smooths out any harshness.

Thanks. Will remember that for future. I sold the liquid this morning. Pity as it taste lovely but not worth a sore throat.

Just to update this.

I got a small sample of 0mg Yoda Babies today and am currently running it in a dripper at 35 watts and it stunning. Zero harshness.

I'm at a loss really I use 3mg in all my tanks and the bottles I bought were 3mg. Can't be PG as the juice is 80/20 VG heavy.

So I can only assume those flavourings combined with nic cause me issued. As with most fruity flavours.

Not sure what to do now to be honest. Before I got the lemo 2 I vaped 6mg but got 3mg because I'd heard of needing to cut nic for sub ohms. After a week I couldn't vape 6mg without getting light headed. So I stocked up on 3mg. I don't want to now get 0mg in one flavour and get so used to it all the stock of 3mg I have becomes unvapable due to making me light headed. If that makes sense?

I don't mind swapping to 0nic but I've currently got around 500ml of liquid in 3mg. With 100ml of custard cream on the way.

Maybe I'll buy some just to drip occasionally but I find the dripper a faf so only ever use it to test liquid.

Suppose I'll just leave it and get some when I switch to 0nic.
