Go-go 3.5ml DCT Cone Mod

[TamJeff]

My charger went kaput for my Go-go and took one of my batteries with it. No biggie, as I have been steam rolling these batteries since April, non-stop. At any rate, I have ordered a new battery and USB charger from DV. I have also found out that these Go-go's are pretty much waterproof. When the charger munched the battery, the button started flashing systematically. On------Off-----On etc. I picked it up about 30 mins later and the whole thing was getting rather warm, so, I took it outside and deep 6'd (5'd?) in a 5 gallon bucket of water and went back in the house. Walked outside later that evening and I see the blue led still flashing in the bucket. Kind of cool at night time, really. It was at least cooled off by now so I separated the battery tube from the button/connector end and noticed that the tubing looked to be the same diameter as one of the Go-go cone thread inserts. Took that apart and cut the battery tube to size to fit the DCT tank, along with one of DV's Go-go to 510 adapters. The threads don't fit over the DCT tank so this new sleeve has to be threaded onto the Go-go first and then the tank screwed in after. Works well at any rate and gets rid of the unsightly adapter to tank space and conceals the juice, which looks like poison to those that are not keen to vaping.

The whole thing with a drip tip, ends up being about as long as my Lavatube with a standard Boge carto without a drip tip installed.

ETA: I cut the tube to length with a Rigid tubing cutter. I left the end cap in the end I was cutting off to keep the cutter from squashing the battery tube. I then used a wood worker's C clamp to press the thread insert into the battery tube.

Here's what it would look like otherwise.

The Go-go at 1300 mah is a great battery. Admittedly, I haven't tried the other EGO types with 1300 mah ratings so I have nothing to compare it with, but in use, that size battery is pretty heavy duty. The Go-go cartos and such are fog machines when you can get them.

In my opinion, 1300 mah is the satisfactory minimum if you are going to use low resistance or dual coil devices and if you are to get by with only two batteries and if you are a somewhat heavy vaper.

As far as the Dual Coil tanks and cartos from DV? Again, one of the most foolproof and consistent top performers across the board. WHen I get tired of fiddling with stuff, that is what I go back to. In the setup pictured above, it's pretty benign in the environment I work in, and my batteries go fishing with me a lot and is where the simple battery types rule IMO.
