Taifun GX

The Taifun GX is a high quality RDTA designed and produced in Germany by SmokerStore. This tank features a bottom fed tank which utilises steel cables for wicks that bring the liquid to your cotton build in the top deck area. Building this atomiser is very simple and the coil/wick can be accessed quickly without any mess with a simple twist of the top cap. The air flow is controlled by way of ‘air disks’ (available in different sizes separately) so you can easily swap out the air flow style to suit your particular style of vaping. Refilling the tank is an innovative design and quite clever with an easy twist of the air flow ring to expose the fill port so you can top up the tank without removal of any parts.

The tank has been lubricated with VG prior to assembly to reduce the chance of parts sticking together, so you may find some liquid around the o-rings, this is normal and nothing to worry about.

Easy Build Deck

The Taifun GX features a modular structure that allows the build deck to be removed from the lower tank and airflow section to allow easy user access to the wicks and the changeable air disks.

Interchangeable Air Disks

The Taifun GX is designed so that customers do not need to adjust to an atomizer. Rather, the atomizer can be adjusted to fit the user. The basic principle is that the Taifun GX cannot be narrowly defined or categorized as a “MTL”, “RDL”, or “DL” type of vaping experience. Rather, an interchangeable Air Flow Disk system allows users to modify the airflow as required, making the Taifun GX a truly versatile atomizer to fit a wide range of vapers. The only thing that the Taifun GX can NOT do, is high wattage, high airflow vaping, nor does it want to be.

The Air Disks allow for a wide range of possibilities and are easily changed. The basic version of the Taifun GX includes two Air Disks, each with three 1.8mm air holes for a total of six 1.8mm air flow holes. This makes the Taifun GX slightly more restrictive than the Taifun GT IV. However, the Taifun GX can also be operated without any Air Disks for maximum air flow, and will deliver a little bit more air flow than the Taifun GT IV with the Open Draw Positive Pole.

Air flow of the Taifun GX is primarily adjusted with the internal Air Disks. External air flow can be adjusted via the MF ring, closing down as far as 1/4 of the air intake slot.

Air Disk options are as follows:

Closed (Solid block, to close air on one side)
1×1.0mm
1×1.2mm
1×1.5mm
3×1.2mm
3×1.5mm
3×1.8mm (Original Air Disk as included with the Taifun GX)

Users may use different Air Disks in different combinations for different airflow performance effects.

Secure Top Cap Design

Featuring the bayonet lock as previously introduced with the top fill cap of the Taifun GTR, this design prevents accidental removal of the top cap.

Concave inner cap design also allows for smoother airflow and better flavour production.

Multi-Function (MF) Ring

A multi-function (MF) ring is integrated in to the Taifun GX, allowing users to adjust the atomizer for various usage modes, and snaps into place with a satisfying click so the user has security in the mode it is set to. The modes available are:

DL Vaping Position

Air flow is fully open, and tank reservoir is fully open for ventilation. Ideal for DL vaping and higher VG e-liquids where fast liquid transport is required.

Transport Lock

Air flow is closed, and liquid flow is sealed. The tank is effectively sealed when in this mode, and is ideal for transporting the atomizer to prevent any liquid leakage.

Filling Position

In this position, the Taifun GX can be easily and quickly filled from the outside, without the need to remove the top cap. An alternative base with a larger fill hole will be available for separate purchase, and is ideal for maximum VG users.

MTL Vaping Position

In this mode, the air flow is open, but the ventilation to the e-liquid reservoir is closed. Liquid now exclusively travels along the SS feeder cables via capillary action, and reservoir air resupply is choked. This prevents over saturation of the cotton wick when using higher PG liquids, as negative pressure vacuum is higher in the chamber when vaping with more restricted air flow.

Wide Bore Drip Tip

The wide bore drip tip included with the Taifun GX Pitcher is a short yet ergonomic black POM (Delrin) core, very similar in style to the drip tips that were released with the Taifun BTD. This friction-fit drip tip design eliminates the need for o-rings, which allows for a larger 8mm inner bore for greater air flow delivery.
