GGTS with UFS is almost impossible?

[mk1990]

hehe quite glad to get pretty much everything I need for a nice setup

Wonder what my experience is going to be like.... hope I get everything working first shot haha

 

[Killjoy1]

You might just get it right off, it really isn't all that hard as long as you don't overthink it ;-)

Just go really small increments at a time when opening the juice control until you find the right spot, then adjust as necessary, and make sure to loosen the top nut before closing the juice control at all so you don't accidentally unscrew your atty . . . speaking from experience on that one

 

[mk1990]

Yea hope so, shouldnt be too hard by the sounds of it

make sure to loosen the top nut before closing the juice control at all so you don't accidentally unscrew your atty . . . speaking from experience on that one

Which top nut are you refering too? Still slowly learning names of each section lol

 

[fright88]

He is referring to the very top metal piece that goes above the top o-ring AKA the new UFS top cap. If it is tight it pinches the o ring which grips the atty or carto causing it t surn when you move the juice controll.

 

[Killjoy1]

The one that sits at the very top of the UFS, that pushes the top o-ring into place around the atty. Loosening this a little relieves pressure of the o-ring around the top of the atty

EDIT: What he said ^^^ I was going to take a screenshot of the diagram in the user manual, but that one shows the v1 UFS

Thanks mate, great diagram, im presuming there are ones for the GGTS body aswell as the UFS all labeled?

 

[Zoranth]

No, it just shows the Top cap and it being used on a UFSv1 in normal mode and short mode. Not an exploded view like the rest. My ancient laptop is giving me hard time at the moment with running my 3D illustrating program. So, I have not been able to finish the new UFSv2 illustrations yet.

There are illustrations for the UFSv1 though. they can be found here along with all of my other illustrations for GG products.

Just arrived my ufs

First time using the GG and my provape 18650 2500mah battery seams tigght in the tube, so I cant tell if im over tightening it or not :S

Nevertheless here is a picture of it

 

[RippleInStillWater]

Don't overtighten, you'll screw up the atty! 8-o

 

[mk1990]

haha -,- Dont think thats my issue Ripple, will upload a quick video soon of what I mean

 

[mk1990]

Here is the quick video I whipped up after work Keen for some insights

mk1990;

I watched your video. It does seem the provape battery is your only issue. Try getting some other batteries.

Until then, can you put the battery in the bottom part first, then try to put on the top. So, instead of putting it up toward the top of GG, put telescope on bottom with spring, put in battery, then put the top on. You may have to loosen the tank to do it this way. Then screw all parts together gently.

Definitely get some other batteries. Someone with better knowledge should be here to help more soon.

 

[mk1990]

Thanks 5sv thats good information

This is why I love forums, and espeically e-cig forums hehe

Just ordered these, was recommended to them
Panasonic NCR18650A NCR18650 18650 3100 3.6v Battery x2 | eBay

Anyone else have any preferences when it comes to batteries?

I can't tell if those are protected batteries? Hopefully someone will be on soon to help.

Yea, I dont think they are protected, would that be an issue?

Nice website, looks heaps good, will see how these turn out anyways

P.S whats the main difference between protected and non protected? My other batteries for my provari are protected but unsure on difference.

Here is the info on batteries:

[Zoranth]

Most of us use the AW IMR batteries for a couple reasons:

1.) They are SAFE chemistry so there is not a protection circuit.
2.) They dont have the thin wire going from one end to the other for the protection circuit which makes them fit better.
3.) They tend to hold their voltage longer before dropping off and needing to be recharged.
