I put together a carto-tank setup that uses the GGTS airflow control!

Thanks to my not being able to get a hold of a GG Stealth Cap for the foreseeable future, it got me to thinking and getting creative! :)


I stacked a 510-eGo adapter and then a 510-510 extension inside of the collector tank (thanks to Tezcatlipoca for the discovery), which is the perfect height to bring the top of the 510-510 extension to just above the top of the adjustable draw cap, but I made sure that both of them were UNsealed so that any juice from a flooded carto would just drip down into the collector tank and also provide the air pathway that I needed for what I was trying to accomplish. I then stretched an appropriately sized o-ring over the small bit of the 510-510 extension that was exposed above the adjustable draw cap to block off the airflow notches in it to seal it airtight. I then used a special carto-tank that I have that not only fills just like a Vivi Nova (just unscrew the top cap and fill) but more importantly has its own built-in 510-connector in the bottom cap, so the punched carto itself simply screws into that inside of the tank. That way there's no chance of that o-ring that I used popping off since I never need to remove the base of the carto-tank (even to replace the carto) and it allowed me to screw it down pretty tightly to make sure that my seal against the o-ring was good. So now I've not only got a nice carto-tank setup going on my GGTS that will collect any juice that leaks out, but the best part is that I now have working airflow control with the built-in control ring on the GGTS! :) My only wish is that they made those carto-tanks in silver metal instead of black plastic and that I could get a hold of an extension to use an 18650 with my Kick in it instead of these little 18500's! ;)

I've had a couple of PM's about this (as opposed to just replying here for some reason?) asking about the carto tank. In case anyone else is wondering it's an ACTv3 (Arry Carto Tank). I would have put it in the description originally but I couldn't remember when I pulled both of them out of one of my vape cases to do this, and now it's too late to edit the OP.
