Collection tank o rings

[gadgetmonster]

Hi All

I have been enjoying my GGTS over the last couple of days whilst on hols in France (thanks to ecigz London for a quick delivery)

Yesterday I went to change my atty and noticed a very small o ring had come out (from the CT by the looks of it) and looking in the CT I saw part of another o ring. The device still works fine but now liquid gets on the atty connection.

Ecigz said they would call me but I'm in France so have to wait till I get back. I'm just wondering if it's ok to continue using?

could they be the o-rings from your center pin?

My top tank is now leaking badly as well, what makes this happen , it just started anyone else having this issue

Yes they could be. I did not see where this small oring came from but i did find half a ring in the bottom of the CT

All I know is that the centre pin used to stay in the CT now it just fall out!

Yeah...sounds like you need center pin o-ring replacements. When you order them...get a bunch..they are cheap. Hell, get a bunch of all of the o-rings...it sounds like that's your problem.

Cheers Geoff, is anyone selling a pack containing the lot? Not seen them on ecigz

I went to home depot here in the states and purchased a pack of each sized ORing for the new AVS, they where about $2 for a pack of 40 ORings, Simple guys orings are readily availible in all sizes, if you cant fine them go to a local hardware store as well, many metric sized orings are very similar in size to an American size and will work by swapping them one for the other Metric vs American

Do you know what the right size for the center pin is?

Maybe its an AVS that got broke. I had said that some of them were bad so I will replace it, no problem mwa. Just send me a pic of it

Gadget, you disassemble the center pin and you didnt assemble it in the right way, so the tiny o-ring was out? Then you need to assemble it in the right way but if o-ring is damaged then you need a new one from UK seller

ps... the size of those o-rings are 2mm hole and 1mm width

I had that happen as well. I started using my AFS again till I got new O rings from Rob. I had bought some from Ace that were still leaking. After I replaced then with the ones I got from Rob everything has been perfect again. I don't know which one was bad though.
