MKB-TS Mechanical Mod (GGTS Clone)

[Trick]

@trick
Would you mind checking a few other GGTS to MKB compatibility options? Can the bottom cap be switched out? Bottom Tube? Telescoping tube? Sorry to ask but The Ghost Modder has some nice brass pieces that I am looking at and you are the only poster here that has both.

Sorry, been a bit busy and haven't been popping in much except late at night when people start falling asleep and leaving me alone. Just a sec while I unscrew some stuff...

Bottom cap: YES (which I'm happy about, because I'm not a fan of the gold plating)
Bottom Tube & Telescope: NO (Surprised me after the bottom cap threads matched that inner-facing ones wouldn't)

Thanks Trick,you saved us some dough

So I wonder if the atties made for a GG like the ZAG would work on the MKB?

Thanks for checking Trick. Dang, thats really too bad about the telescoping tube. I was really considering getting a whole brass bottom assembly to go with the brass top tube I already got to make a nice two tone mod (assuming if GGTS parts don't fit then Ghost Modder parts won't either). On a plus note the brass top tube seems to be fully compatible.

 

[Trick]

Yep, just confirmed on mine that the top tube does screw onto the telescope -- it's just the bottom one that won't. A little strange. I kept thinking I was doing something wrong, but nope, tries several times and the threads just don't match up.

Should be getting mine by Wed hopefully.

Waiting for the two adapters i bought to come in (501 to 901, and 901 to 501). For now, it's topless. X_x.

 

[Trick]

Not sure if I mentioned it here, but I picked up a 901-to-510 and a 510-to-510 shorty adapter, and they come to a perfect length.

fuuu, I just did it wrong didn't I? Cause I bought 901 to 510 adapter and a 510 to 901, and it's giving my mkb a 24 hour morning wood kind of look. So i should purchase a 510 to 510 shorty adapter?

here's what it looks like with the 901 to 510, and a 510 to 901 adapter.

 

[dwcraig1]

Use a 510 Ego adaper with a large atomizer and leave off the gold cartomizer cap.

I used an ego adapter with a 510 shorty adapter and it worked great. I also removed the slots in the top of the shorty so that the air draw would work as it should. Also the ZAG works perfect on it too.....

Any pictures of the zag on the Mkb?

 

[XCypher]

Got mine in today with a 510/901 - 901/510 sits perfect with the aga-t2 on it. A vivi nova not soooo much but i'm talking mm's
Pics to follow.

Here is the ZAG on the MKB in 18350 and 18650 mode.





And here is a pic or the adapters I used. Okay 2 pics.

I removed the center pins from the adapters and left the insulators intact then slid a short piece of .114 diameter brass rod through the center to eliminate the extra connections.

Stormy's has the "Adapter for MKB-TS" in stock. On first glance it just looks like a big ego adapter. It does not look like it has a floating pin like the gg one. It says it's pin is "brass with chrome plating". Huh. Don't think I'm going to bother. I like the Ego adapter + no gold top cap for my Terminator setup. But if you like the gold platted cap it might be worth checking out. It's only 10 bucks....

Do ya remove the top cap o-ring or do ya leave it exposed to the elements?

Well I'm still rocking my tuned up MKB-TS. I'm now on the single eGo adapter (sans center-pin) w/o gold top cap+o-ring - airflow working perfectly w/ Terminator. Using self made center pin. Brass-shim switch fix holding strong - not a single misfire for a week! Brass shimmed kick in sanded tube pushing the current very well on full blast, 3ohm 32g kandthal.

Now that I'm good at building the Term I feel like I've got a GG! I'm using a small 400 SS wrap over two cotton yarn wicks. Dual-Coil'd Kanthal. The flavor is AMAZING! Esp. w/ MKB's airflow - really marches well with juice control.

This MOD has really grown on me now that I've had it longer with the upgrades. It's so versatile! The adapter configuration actually adds functionality towards customization. Plus I'm not stressed about a stripped 510 connection on my precious MOD as the adapter takes the abuse & can be swapped out anytime.

I've also found the cheapy airflow control also avail' at Stormy's makes a good silver top cap. Looks like it belongs there. It's a great way to airflow control the Terminator Mini Dripping atty (looks better than I expected). The AF thingy adds that shoulder to the body of the MOD.

Can't shake those ZAG pictures! I feel my wallet twitching. 'Course I'd actually have to FIND one.
