Yes, I am also happy to see Grimm holding a GG and getting to know the button placement. I think after he uses the device for a few weeks and notices that all his other stuff is just sitting there not getting used he might see why it's really worth the little extra cash.
A new GG review for a previous model

I never met a beauty that was to versital, has any of you other big guyz out there, HAHAHAH,,, can you say adapter and poof 510/901/801 HV to LR and everything in between and any unit that a 901 uses it will always leak out the side of that mod. I know my personal review of my GGT OR ANY GG i own for that matter would have had a way more positive spin on the review than that one, no pun intended Grim, Just think the GG line of PV's is one of if not the top of the line PV's on the Market and at the time it came out it was top, and only has improved becuase of Imeo's inovative ways and being ahead of the game all the time, GGTS is versatile when im vaping mine at the moment too and dam I love a beautiful piece of nature thats versatile, hehehahaha ok im dome now.. GG RULES.!!!
I still think it was an awesome review. He said a lot of positive things about it. And he did mention that GGTS would eliminate all the tubes and he also mentioned that his good friend absolutely loves the GGTS. And I bet if he got a GGTS and saw that 510 connection well he may just go crazy over it.
Well I like his "style" of reviewing and he seems like a nice enough guy... but I'd personally like to see more versatility in more products that I own.
I wouldn't complain if my Mustang GT got 45 mile per gallon by saying, "Sure, it has a ton of horsepower and will tear up the roads, but does it have to try to act like a Prius when it comes to mileage?"
That's all I meant. The whole; It does everything excellently, but why is it designed to be so capable at doing so many things? argument is completely lost on me.
It's a good review. I think that it would be a pain to change on the fly, but only because it's such a beautiful device I wouldn't want to scratch up the rings while carrying them around with me. Other than that it's great from what I see. I will hopefully be getting one for myself soon enough. Just remember that nothing is perfect in the long run. Imeo has come close but I'm not sure that perfection is obtainable in the vaping world. Hell you can't please everyone.. And a big thank you to Grimmer for getting the GGT out there to be reviewed by one of the more trusted reviewers... Good work...
Thanks man I figured since he's helped so many people that a GGT would be a nice gift. I didn't think he would do a review... but he did. And I think he did a great job to.
I thought it would be hard for Grimm to do a good review of any GG just because of the "Greek Haters" over at the other forum. His review was *meh* IMHO.
What's the deal with "too much versatility"? I guess he HAD to say something negative about it or he would feel the wrath with the greek haters at the "other" forums.
I really like Grimm's reviews and he seems like a great guy all around, but I could sense the "I wanna love a GG, but can't say it publicly" undertone in his review. Call it peer pressure or whatever, but I could definitely tell the Grimm wasn't speaking what he actually felt. Maybe fear of retribution at the other forum? Grimm is hardly ever on ECF anymore and always hangs out at the other site. IDK????
Just my $0.02 and my thoughts and opinion.

I actually get what he meant about the GGT being "too versatile." It's not a complaint that it will take all the different battery combinations, but that it can be a hassle to do so, especially on the fly what with adding and removing pieces and adjusting the spring. With a regular mod, the battery choice is more limited, but that means it's never a hassle to change batts. In short, the Transformer tried to do it all, but in doing so, it got complicated. I've had stuff like that before, items that were supposed to be versatile but were such a pain to change that I only ever used them in one way.
On the other hand, the TS does it all while remaining very simple to use; at most, only one piece ever has to be removed, and that's only for the smallest of batts.
I probably would have been fine with a Transformer (well, except for the 901 part, because I don't like using adapters). I don't have a lot of mods, so I don't have a huge collection of different types of batts to use. My GGTS has had an 18650 in it since 30 seconds after it arrived, and it will probably stay like that. But if I had lots of different batts from different mods, and I was told that I could use any of them with the Transformer, I can see how it might be aggravating to have to fiddle with it to get different batts to work.
Mostly, I'm glad that Imeo didn't seem 100% satisfied with the Transformer, because it led to the GGTS, and I'm very happy with my TS. I think if Grimm had gotten to review the TS instead, he would have seen the versatility as a virtue instead of a hassle.

That's where I have to disagree. I'm afraid. The GG Transformer was my first mod and it's still my main all-day device even though I have many other GGs now including 2 Telescopics.
It's simplicity itself to change the configuration of the Transformer and I only usually use a 901 atomiser myself so that part just isn't an issue for me either. I think Grimm was trying to make it out to be more complex than it actually is for some reason.

Who changed their Transformer very much anyway. Didn't most everyone decide what configuration they liked best and mostly stuck with it. I loved that I could change it and try different batteries but I used my favorite most of the time.
*shrug* You can disagree because we're dealing with personal preferences here, not hard facts. People also have different tolerance levels for what we perceive as hassles. I can tell you that I'd be aggravated the very first time I was told that I'd have to adjust the spring for different batts, and that I wouldn't like dealing with extra pieces if I did want to change batts. And for those of us who do not like 901 atties, the atty connector would be a big deal. (Yes, using adapters IS a big deal to me. I don't like them.)
Now, if he'd said the TS was "too versatile," I wouldn't understand that at all because the facts don't back it up; putting a different size batt in only requires screwing it together a little more or less, and only the smallest of batts require keeping up with an extra piece. It's versatile while remaining simple, while the Trans is versatile but a little more complicated to use. That *will* bother some people.
As for who would change the configuration, wasn't that one of the selling points? Isn't it still one of the selling points of the TS? So, while I recognize that I'm not the type to try different batts regularly, I *can* see how someone who reviewed a Trans or a TS would take into consideration the ease of changing the configuration.

I just wanted to say that i personally do very much so like Grimm's reviews and watch them often with new products and such. I dont want to get into a debate or discusion about the review becouse i see alot already here. I was hoping to see a review on GG products from him for a while and finally are starting to see some and wanted to thank Grimmer255 for that! My next hope would be to review some of the products currently being stocked like ofcourse the GGTS ect... Im sure the great reviews will come in due time and ill sit back till then and vape my babies...
Its easy for me to make a GGTS without the extra sleeve that required for bigger batteries. I have already made 2 of them. The one is in Vapn's hands and the other is in Germany. But I made the new GGTS with the sleeve because of 2 reasons:
1) Smaller cig in length
2) Way more beautiful

I would use either of them to be honest... Although I'm partial to both of my GGTS with the sleeve for the larger batteries... For this I thank you...

I think my GGT Storm is absolutely perfect. I just don't see how any PV will ever top this one unless Imeo starts using precious metals and I couldn't afford one of those.
Indeed, and I see all your points, Jo and accept that not everyone likes the same thing. I guess that's why Imeo invented the Trans and then the Telescopic in the first place - just so people could choose whatever they wanted.
I think however, boomboom was spot on in this instance.
I do thank Grimmer for getting the GGT out to Grimm though, a lot of people like him and his review style and people who may never have considered a GG before, or who only know of GG from the gossip on other forums would now have had a chance to see one in action. Now at least they can see the versatility of the device regardless of whether they perceive it as a positive or a negative.
In this case, seeing is believing. I agree with you whole heartedly Lisa... that's what makes the GG line so appealing to me.. They truly fit any lifestyle.
Wow! i didn't know you posted my video here Imeo, so thank you!
just to clarify the whole "grimmeo" thing started on twitter, When i was messaging back and forth with Grimmer, i posted on twitter that i was stoked to FINALLY review the GG, and one of my followers called me "Grimmeo" i thought it was funny so the name kinda stuck.
i must say after using the GGT , it really just makes me want a GGTS so much more.
thanks everyone.

You are the man Grimm!!! I hope you get your hands on a GGTS soon with the beastly I7 atty! Your reviews are awsome and would love to see more of GG products done by you~
