Copying and pasting to get my own thread.

got my ufs today aswell, 1st attempt, same failure as the OP
then.. i cleaned everything, vaselined everything (i'll be on the lookout for dirty jokes!) and trying again.
Now, i've been using an afs with 901 drilled carto forever, and it's VERY easy, if the hole is right, everything is 100% easy, open the Air ring to the max, and vape, period -> .
Now.. the ufs, well for me it's still bittersweet.. i understand it could be nice, but right now i'm struggling hard.
1st and really for the UFS V56 PLEASE MAKE THE LIQUID CR "textured"
it's horrible, i never know when i'm opening it, or just unscrewing everything else, i hate this liquid cr with a passion...

Now.. i'm using a 3.7v with a LR atty and.. well hmm
it's nowhere near as good as my carto's with 6V even tho i though it should be the same (my mistake i guess)
So right now i have juice on my fingers andd vaseline and i'm trying to find this sweet spot. Hopefully i will.

By the way , imeo
MAKE THE LIQUID CR textured , PLEASE!
(the other thing i hate is my afs/avs whatever name it was drip tip seems it will fit to the Ufs, but just doesn't screw at all :d)
I'm a sad camper atm but i'll find a way

(did i mention to texture the liquid cr? please?)
Btw i heard if i want an easier liquid cr i could remove the bottom one of the 2 orings on the pole.. how do i do that without ripping it appart ?)

Edit, i ripped appart this oring. Still for the life of me I CANNOT OPEN THE LIQUID CR
i'm not without muscles or anything, it's just.. not moving, hints ? (i did put vaseline on the threads aswell!

Liquid control is above the air ring, you are right. Basically the whole tank is your control for juice. Make sure you vaseline the bottom of the tank connection when you screw it in. Then wipe it all down so it's clean and it should turn smoothly but it will still be firm. It may be just because it's new and will take a bit of breaking in.

Are you turning it the wrong way? To open the air flow you turn it counter clockwise towards the mouthpiece, but to open the liquid control you turn it clockwise away from the mouthpiece. When you are opening the liquid control, nothing should become unscrewed because you are turning it in the direction that tightens everything else. And when you close the liquid control tank by turning it counter clockwise towards the mouthpiece, the atty should keep the smooth bottom control ring of the liquid tank from becoming undone.

Sounds better, it's indeed easier to turn the whole thing than just the cr.. i guess it's a bit mislabeled but it does the trick. Now i have to find why my 3.7 on LR atty feels bad compared to the 6V on the HR atty, on an electrical standpoint it should be the same, thx guys
(i did put vaseline everywhere.. i'm all... slidy)

Well, i tried. This is nowhere near the confort zone i had with afs/drilled carto's, my ufs is going to be on sale.
if anyone has any interest. I'll start a topic later but you can still pm me
I'll possibly sell a GGTS 1st gen (i guess? alu/brass, with the serial number)
I'm in europe but can ship everywhere
And no i won't ask more than what's its worth new :facepalm:

that makes me a sad panda you didn't give it enough time to show how much the precious can please you... I say give it a week or so to play with it.... to learn it... to love ittttttttt.... don't just do it for me do it for you.... help me help you and any other catch phrases you can think of..... but seriously take the rest of today off from it and come back tomorrow and give it a shot till you fall in love or get frustrated if after a week you still hate it then sell it but at least give it a fair shot.... if you have an Atty or cartos you love and know they work well for you in or out of a tank system (that fit of course) maybe this will help but at least play with it a while before giving up on her.....

well i vape 6 v on my carto's and i love the warm vape. Plus my carto never leaks, ufs does, all atty does once in a while.
Not saying the ufs is bad, but i'm so accustomed to my 901 carto's into my afs, drilled, slap, keeps working for 15 days, cr opened all the way up without any hassle.
with the ufs i'm finding myself always playing with the 2 rings, plus i'm vaping either 3.7 on a lr and the vape is "cold" or 6v on the HR and it's still not that great.
Here they are.. (plus the 510, without an extension, tank is ridiculously small :(
I don't expect to sell it fast so i'll try it again but..future doesn't looks bright for my relation with the ufs.

I've made the trip to my work place, with my 2 ggs, the one leaking when i arrived was the ufs one :| and the Air cr was closed and the liquid cr was closed too.
I didn't loose 5 ml of liquid but still there were drops.
My main problem is the vape ain't good, maybe it's the atty but i'm scared again to have my mouth full of liquid, thing i didn't
have with the carto's.
It's gurgling but i don't have a nice vape production. I mostly vape pg based stuff cause vg gives me the shortness of breath (vg sucks!)

I realised too that when i screw my atty tightly, the holes are almost hidden behind the crenelation, where it should stand in the middle..

All brands of attys and cartos will be different in the UFS. Each one you put in will be different from the last. First thing is to vape the atty your going to put in there and make sure it vapes good. Some attys will never be good in the UFS. Far as leaking, all connections should be tight. Everything needs to be screwed down tight. It all works on a vacuum. Far as a warm vape, that would be the atty. The UFS is not going to make a cold vape, it's a delivery system.

Where are the drops of liquid from? Also does the top of atty or carto go up at least a tad past the o-ring for the mouthpiece? If not you will incur leaking after putting on dt. Also from looking at pics, that black o-ring should not be showing, the UFS needs to be put together properly.

i got mouthfuls of hot liquid for about an hour and juice everywhere until i finally got the setup right.... i went through a whole 30ml of juice! but when i finally got the setup right..... wooooooohoooo! its the best 6v vaping experience i have ever had. Stick in there buddy.... when you find the right style, you will feel the initial fumbling worth it.... i now have a bath towel smelling of juice.... but when i had it figured, i stayed up till 4am just enjoying the vaping so much, i cant put my ggts down! try it out again buddy, when you have it fully figured, you wont regret it!!

Yep i figured i shouldn't see the oring but i can't close it more, unless i use brute force, and i should not use brute force ?
This "tank" can be used both ways ? what i'm trying to say is, is there a correct way to put it and an incorrect one? like i'm maybe upside down ?


Here you go B - GG UFS v2 Assembly
