Daz, very clever thought buddy!! That was a genious idea! So small springs are easy to get lost, so this solution is exellent. Spare o-ring too? Especially those tiny ones inside the connector

 

[imeothanasis]

And maybe a bigger cap? What else we could store inside?

Ok, my tip about atty O-ring. -- before you screw 901 into small AVS connector put the o-ring on but.... from the atty's back side, and push it a bit forward. Then screw atty in, and place o-ring as usual.

Thing is, the back side of the atty (the threads side) apears to be much less sharp than the mouthpiece side. Also o-ring goes over from the atty's threads side easier, therefore putting the o-ring from there will extend its lifetime.

Thats very true Booker. I put the o-ring from that side too

Very nice idea, however,

Please take into consideration that the more space you occupy under the black plastic insert, the less effective the Plastic Baffle and Vent holes will be in the event of a Battery Malfunction.

That being said, use caution when using this space for storage.

Thats true too Zor my friend. I was happy about that trick that I didnt thought of that. You are right. We need a bigger cap for this

We need the videos in this thread

Light's assembly video
Refilling, pt.1
Refilling, pt. 2 (unclogging atty)

I'm using a business card or some flat piece of paper since I realised I'm scratching the battery cap much by putting my GG on the table standing.

I had mention it before but maybe its forgotten. If you dont want to take primary inhales with CR closed and without pushing the button to bring liquid inside atomizer in case of a burn taste, you can also leave CR open and blow air through the mouthpiece. It has the same effect so if its more comfortable for you do it that way.

About button. Dont screw hard the locking nut to lock the button. Issues of unscrewed buttons are because some people lock it hard. The answer is NO. Button will lock if you screw the locking nut until it reach the head of the button. Dont press it more, no reason for that.

Simple advices for serious vapers

Jay, the AVS has a learning curve and some hints and tips are needed. Please keep an eye on threads in your area if you speak different languages for anyone struggling that maybe does not understand English. We help each other together.

I and several other GGTS-AVS users are usually available on IRC at

O yea I remember that now.. thanks for reminding me about that trick...

Tips learned so far:

1. Make sure your GGTS and AVS is clean.

2. Noalox all threading in the GGTS itself and put a dab where the button meets the brass center pole.

3. Apply vaseline to all threading and o rings in the AVS. Really, no joke.

Wet the Atty well before applying power, primary inhales. Better to have to empty the CT rather than change the Atty....
