GGTB Nickel Shiny Top Cap Shorting 901's

[AussieDoo]

Hi All,

I own most of the gg range , i recently purchased 2 ggtb's the ali and the nickle.

Ali works a treat. The nickle however has issues using 901 atomizers. It shorts causing the spring to overheat ( Hot to touch like a stove top)

I switch the top cap from the ali over to the nickle all seems to run 100%. Tried switching springs buttons from the ali over to the nickle. TOp cap of the ggtb nickle is at fault only with 901 atomizers. 510 808 work ok.

Have another ggtb user also with a nickle ggtb having similar issues with the top cap using 510 atomizers.

Anyone else with the nickle have any issues

maybee your screwing the atty too hard down on the adapter try to back it off a tad sounds like a short somewere on the atty cap..

lawnman3 ... or try a small 0 ring on the 901 atty cap to stop it from going too far on the cap adapter...

Hi aussie my friend. I made the center pin 1 mm longer to fit all 901 atomizers because some of them have have short center pole, some of them long center pole. But as you know the GG is a device that every user can adjust it everytime in the most easy way. So you can do 2 things:

1. Dont screw atomizer very hard.
2. Unscrew the center pole of GGTB and put an o-ring on it (like those tiny ones you have on your GGTS connector). Then screw the center pin again in place. If you see that this small oring is thin then put a 4/1,5 or 3/1,5 or 2/1,5. Thats it mate

Back off the brass polygonal nut under the top cap, screw the 901 Atty all the way down tight, screw polygonal nut back in until you feel some resistance and stop, screw cap with Atty attached onto your GGTB, Done.!!

The "o-ring solution" cant fail aussie. Is the o-ring between pin and plastic? If yes then the pin now is lower

Fixed, probably wrong o-ring placement but also possibly the spring post touching bottom of GGTB, I noticed some posts protrude from the bottom of the plastic more and some bottoms seem to be slightly domed in the center.

Pin needs to be flush or slightly recessed ie:

If sticks out a bit need a tiny o-ring or spacer where I have the centre green line to recess the pin a bit:

If this doesn't fix it put a small insulation disk when I've drawn the circle:

Pretty confident this is most peoples issue, not the pin.

its a little dificult for the pin to be longer than the threaded hole Hope. If that happened to aussie then its a faulty pin. Aussie can sand the pin and he will be ok. Hope can you meassure the threaded piece of the pin and the threaded hole too?

He has it back again. But the Battery Pole on his sticks below the plastic and where that red dot is in the last picture it is slightly raised by the look. Used this fix on a couple now, see how they go over the next few days.

Pics are of one of mine, not his.
