Angled GGTS/AVS Tip for "recliner" vaping?

[Mauvemarauder]

I enjoy vaping my GGTS/AVS while sitting in my recliner and can't help thinking that a longer, angled tip that compensates for the more horizontal position and also prevents the GGTS from hitting my chin would make for a more comfortable vaping experience. It would also allow / ease it's use while laying "propped up" in bed.

Anybody feel the same way? Or is there maybe something similar already available that I don't know about?

I only know of one flexible extension but it would not work on the AVS.

That reminds me the "banana" style that Emonty proposed a while ago in GG forum hahahaha.

Yes my friend Mau we had thought of that in past but I see that Isis gave the solution immediately!!

That was my first thought too

I would recommend a cheap and simple but not to pretty solution..Just get some medical grade tubing simply slide one end over your mouthpiece and put a regular atty cap(you'll have to put a hole through the center of the atty cap) or drip tip in the tube from the end youll be hitting...I have a whip from my Arizer extreme Q and i took some tubing from it and tried it and it works fine and accomplishes exactly what you want if im understanding you right.

I am working on a design for this that will be in GG style. If it works Like I am thinking, the angle will be completely adjustable. You will be able to lock (tighten it) it in the position of your choosing. I will post the results here if it works like I m thinking.

Lol, hope I don't fall on my face with this

There are a couple of glass-blowers doing custom "drip tips" in one of the mod sections, I'm sure they could do it.

Quasi has it correct, there is a guy putting out some nice stuff in glass that would be perfect, good thinking QuasiMod

This is a very crude representation of what I was thinking. Bare in mind it is 4am here But it may have possibilities or something similar.

It looks like that would cover all the angles. Not as breakable as glass.

Thanks for the link, Ast Isis. But it's when I'm "rest mode" that I use the AVS most often...

Great idea CG89... Being somewhat of a "motorhead", I'm giving serious thought to rubber tubing covered with a braided sleeve. I used (stainless steel) braided sleeving to dress up and protect the wires and hoses of the "toys" I owned in my younger days. Here's a link showing some sleeving that can be used to dress things up:

Thanks quasimod, but I don't feel comfortable with glass. Heaven forbid I fall asleep in the chair and drop my GGTS...

Great idea Zoranth. It has all the bases covered alright... Let me know how things progress. Your project definitely looks like something I would be very interested in...

In the meantime, I was thinking about building on CG89s' suggestion: Use flexible tubing. I thought I could dress up the tubing with a flexible braided sleeve. I posted a link to what I'm talking about in my reply to CG89.

Maybe I could just attach a short length of braided tubing to a drip tip and hook that assembly up to my original GGTS tip (possibly using heat shrink tubing). I currently have the stock black plastic GGTS tip and this is the perfect excuse for needing to step up to the shiny Stainless Steel one.

I think that's a good idea. It would make it look a lot better and still rather cheap to make. You'll probably pay more in shipping than for the material used...lol

I like the looks, and the idea of vaping with auto-parts has its appeal (needs more diamond plate!), but how do you clean off the, uh, "lip goo"?

Heres is an option for the AFSv2

I got this Gooseneck from TTTe-liquids in Houston, TX

Mine should be here tomorrow.

Wow! Thanks JBTX1! That's a lot better than what I could ever come up with... Now all that needs to be done is figure out a way to adapt it for use with the GGTS AVS....

 

[JBTX1]

Mauvemarauder....That's the big challange with the AVS. Wish I had something to offer as an idea for that. Zoranth has a great idea! I can't help but wonder about a metal flex tubing like the one shown with one end threaded to fit the mouthpiece cap and the other with a drip tip configuration mouthpiece. Probably be pricey to make, but I think it would work.
