Air whistling

[chris_ m]

Hi ECF,

I have noticed that my GGTS with the 901 adapter is quite loud when I draw on it.

Its like a whistling noise, its not a big problem but my other PV's dont do this.

I have tried iAttys and standard attys and both the same.

Are everyone's like this ?

Thanks

I have never experienced this.

Try the atomizer on another pv can't say i ever heard of this before take atomizer off put finger over bottom does it whistle then?

The same atty does not do it on any other PV and I have tried 3 attys on the GG, all the same.

I think its the 901 adapter as my 510's are fine

Could try a bit of noalox on adapter thread, trust you to have a problem no ones ever heard of

ill try some noalox tomorrow, I may just order another adapter from Lisa to make sure its not something weird with the one I have.

maybe its the air that comes through the rethreater when you inhale. Noalox will solve it for sure chris

My 901 atties do the same but I find that it is caused by how hard I inhale.

Yes, From time to time I have experienced the same...I dont find it to be a big deal, and its kinda stopped lately. So dont think there is anything wrong, its just the way the air is flowing causing that whistle sound.

I get it occasionally as well but find that if I slow down my draw it stops.

does noalax produce any fumes or anything? im just wondering if you put it on something that's making a whistling noise, meaning there's air traveling through that part.. you're gonna be sucking in the air that passed through the part that has the noalax on it.

Noalox has stopped the whistling !!, thanks everyone.

Although I am a little concerned about NatureBoys comment regards breathing in Noalox fumes !!, If this is my last ever post you all know why

Taken from a data sheet:

<80 Polybutene
20 Zinc Dust
<5 Silicon Dioxide

Zinc dust or silicon dioxide as dust: 10mg/m.
Excessive heat and burning may release oxides of carbon.

Probably ok.... though I'm a bit paranoid, don't think I'd use it around anything that gets hot and has air traveling through it where I'd be sucking it in.

Thanks NatureBoy, I agree on reflection.

Noalox has now been taken off and I thnik ill just order another adapter

Noalox dont get hot at this place it is. Also air that goes through the rethreater dont come in touch with Noalox because Noalox is traped between threads, so there is no problem at all Cris.

I think you'll do more damage to yourself just going and walking out on any pavement next to a busy road with exhaust fumes to be honest. If you want to try another threader thingy though, by all means email me and we can arrange this, no problem.
