About to buy a GGTB...questions!!

[Krisb]

OK, I'm about to click on the order button, but wanted to ask a couple questions real quick. First, it says it is capable of 3.7, 6 and 7.4v's. I have only vaped as high as 5v. How much different is 6v from 5v?

Second Q. I started out as a 510 vaper and have never tried anything else, these are 901. What difference should I anticipate? More/less vapor? TH? Flavor?

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

I have used a 5v pass-through and can say it was OK. O do prefer the 6v with a slightly higher resistance Cartomizer. I use the Turbo Cartomizers from Vapor Nine. They are just a little higher in resistance and work great on 6v. Also just so you know the 808-d will fit a 901 connection as well. Or you can use a 901/510 adapter to use what you currently have. I think the 808 produces a bit more vapor and flavor than the 510 (I have an ego as well). Dont hesitate just get it. They are so hard to come by if you don't like it I am sure you would have no problems finding a new home for it.

Thanks, Darth. You're right, just nerves. This will be my first non home made mod!

The GG mods work AWESOME with 808 cartomizers ! 901 atomizers are very nice at 5 or 6v too, more flavor than a 510 and less harsh on the throat.

The GGTB will wipe the floor with the competition, the fact that it also comes with the telescopic battery piece all for 73 bux is a serious bargain.

I know...I'm so excited!!!!! I lean towards attys with a drip tip, until, of course, I can get the afs v3 and tank. What atty works best at 6v?

 

[rogerdugans]

I don't (yet) have a GGTB but I've been using the HV 901s from VaporKings with my GGTS/AVS. They work pretty well at 6v.
The regular ones work IN AN AVS TANK too, but I don't think they'd last long without an AVS.

You're going to want HV 901 attys at 6V. Ikenvape has some nice 3.5Ω ones. He carries good quality attys.

 

[Krisb]

Thanks Roger and Mist... I bought the 808/901 to 510 adapter, too. I have a feeling that I will be using only the GG when it arrives and my 510 stock will go unused without it! Of course, I do not have any HV 510's... Oh, well...looks like I have a little more shopping to do, Darn!

 

[rogerdugans]

As much as I do NOT want this stuff to be a hobby in and of itself, there always seems to be ONE MORE THING I need.....

 

[Krisb]

No kidding!!! My hubby was trying hard not to complain too much, but think the GG annoyed him (he has never been a smoker and just doesn't get why I love vaping so much!). Last things I want to purchase before I feel I'll be satisfied is the avs for the ggtb whenever that comes out and possibly the Darwin.

 

[rogerdugans]

As a GGTS/AVS user I want a GGTB AVS too.
You will probably want to keep a close eye on the GG section and VaporKings- I don't think there are going to be many in the first shipment and it may be VERY popular.

I shouldn't have said that.....

 

[Krisb]

LOL, don't worry, I've been scouring the threads, too and have read the same thing. I have the site up all the time and hit refresh every now and then. Wish we had a time they were coming, hell...what day! The AFSv3 is the one coming out which is a fit for any 901 PV and then later (heard 1 1/2-2months) a GGTB specific AVS will be out...I have this right?

 

[RippleInStillWater]

Yeah, thanks for bringing that up, roger!!!!

So, as a GG virgin...How well do the AVS's work? Do they involve much fiddling with, or are they mostly 'plug n play'? Love dripping over using cartos or carts but would love something that truly doesn't involve me having to play with it every few puffs! If it's truly that good, I may end up in a nic coma the first night!

It's not plug and play, it takes some fiddling to get it set up right, but once you've got it done then that's it, just start vaping through all those ml's of juice lol.

What is the difference in a 901 vs 501 atty, I see the ggtb uses a 901 connection, whats the pro's con's?

901's have more flavor and less harsh on the throat, but a lot of us the 901 connection on the GG's for 808 cartomizers without needing to use adapters.

Is there a specific 808 cart, that seems better than others? I have a GGTB on it's way.

 

[rogerdugans]

AVS is both simple and finicky, I think.

Using 808 cartos got rid of the finicky for me, but I could still taste burning polyfill, so I rarely use them and when the 4 I have are dead I don't plan on buying more.

901 atty- slightly finicky, I think. I had it perfect the first couple of days and then screwed up left and right for about a week, lol. Since then I have had few problems at all, and the few I do have I can fix in a minute or two, tops.

Threads abound on the issues and there can always be more.

I haven't tried the 510s yet, but should be doing that shortly.

Yes, the Boge ones are the best, they're called Premiums a lot of places like LitecigUSA, the coolcarts / turbos are also good too for 5 / 6v.
