G-Tank-US-CO-OP Support Thread - Part 2

I keep meaning to mention this and keep forgetting:

If your air hole doesn't line up between the post and directly pointed at the coil you can use an O ring between the bottom and middle section. Neither one of the two that I've built lined up correctly and to me it makes a difference. The O ring I used was from the SGv3, #15 I think.

I actually used 2 number 7 orings, one for the tank to mid section and one for the mid to bottom section. Aligns and helps stop seeps.

Notice in this pic where I put the orings:

Ninja US! Where is a good cheap place to get the T tanks? I assume that top is included. It looks sweet. Especially in the ninja pose.

Holy crap!! This made a HUGE difference! I honestly feel quite stupid for not noticing this earlier , lol. Thanks for the tip. Exactly the kind of thing I've been waiting to hear!

The o rings that come with GLV work too. I just like the way the red #15 looks and it fits fine. I haven't had any seepage but it never hurts to be prepared. Scary photo lol

You're welcome. It was a aha! moment for me when I discovered the hole didn't line up.

Not sur ewhat you are talking about the hole lining up. there should only be one small segment where the hole would be blocked by the post .... right?

 

[harmonic]

from playing with my glv i would agree it seems to work best if the air hole lands parallel to the posts so its pointing directly between them straight at the coil and not off to one side or the other where the air hits a post first...

What exactly size do I get at the hardware store? Basically what do I tell them what I need for those o rings?

Mesh diff report.
400 mesh, very smooth flavor is good throat hit is minimal
325 mesh, a little harsher flavor is a bit spicier, throat hit is stronger on it.
This is already known how mesh does but wanted to say it since I have two setup with different mesh setups.
The flavor I use is cinnamon roll, only flavor I like on genisis.

Heck yeah

 

[Mindfield]

I'm curious -- and I don't have all of the material necessary to experiment -- but given that it seems to be a tradeoff between flavour (400 mesh) and throat hit (325 mesh) what if you cut half the width of both gauges and rolled them one inside the other? Would that make any difference? I'm trying to do the hydrodynamics in my head but can't quite decide if it wouldn't matter because it's only the mesh that touches the coil that matters (amount of liquid in direct contact with the coil) or if it's the speed of wicking that makes the difference.
