At a Glance
The Eleaf GTL X Tank is a mouth-to-lung atomizer built around a slide-open top-fill, precise top airflow and Eleaf’s upgraded dual-mesh GTL-D coils. It pairs cleanly with a moderate-power MTL mod like the iStick X80, and its full specifications live on the Eleaf GTL X Tank product page. If you want a tidy, flavour-focused 510 tank for cigarette-style vaping, this is a strong specialist choice.

Why GTL-D Mesh Matters for MTL
The heart of the GTL X is the upgraded GTL-D coil. It uses high-quality, natural, heat-resistant cotton with an optimised mesh thickness and fibre structure that absorbs and delivers e-liquid more efficiently. In practice that means faster vaporisation, better flavour and a longer coil life than a basic wire build — and in the two bundled resistances, the 1.2Ω (a cooler, tighter draw) and 0.8Ω (a slightly warmer, more open one) cover most MTL preferences straight out of the box.
Top Airflow and Slide-to-Fill
Air enters from the top and is finely adjustable, letting you dial the draw precisely while reducing the chance of e-liquid weeping out of the base during everyday carry. Refilling is one-handed: slide the top section open to expose the fill port, refill, and slide it closed. It is the kind of clean, leak-conscious layout that makes an MTL tank pleasant to live with.
Size, Compatibility and the Glass Versions
At a slim φ22.9–23.9mm footprint, the GTL X sits neatly on most 510 mods without overhang, and the replaceable 510 drip tip lets you swap in your preferred mouthpiece. It is compatible with the entire GTL coil range, so as your taste shifts you are not locked in. Note that Eleaf sells 3ml and 2ml versions with their own dedicated replacement glass tubes — the two are not interchangeable, so match the spare glass to the tank version you buy.
Pros and Cons
- Pros: Efficient, long-life dual-mesh GTL-D coils; precise top airflow that cuts leaking; one-handed slide-to-fill; slim and mod-friendly; full GTL coil compatibility; replaceable 510 drip tip; two resistances included.
- Cons: MTL-focused, so not for big-cloud direct-lung vapers; the 3ml/2ml glass tubes are version-specific and not interchangeable; modest capacity by design.
Verdict: Who Is It For?
If you vape MTL and want a tidy, leak-conscious tank with genuinely good mesh flavour, the GTL X is a specialist pick that suits an MTL mod like the iStick X80 or iStick X40. New to atomizers and draw styles? Our beginner’s guide to your first device explains MTL vs DTL.
