ideas for tightening the draw for GGTB/Iatty.

edit: Opps, messed up the title, should read "ideas for tightening the draw for ggtb/iatty. My bad

so, the iatty is definatly a winner. only downside i have seen so far is that the draw is kinda airy. heres my temporary fix.

it's hard to see, but i poked holes in the electrical tape till i got the perfect draw. when i have time i plan on fashioning a more elegant air control device. possibly an aluminum ring with o-rings on the top and bottom with holes drilled through. anywho, all ideas are welcome.. thanks!

edit: sorry for blurry pic!

That's a good fix and similar to an idea I had. I also thought about putting a small piece of foam or something in the top part of the cone to restrict the airflow.

Haven't tried it yet so I don't know if that would work.

Maybe an o-ring around the small neck of the GTTB connector guys?

Thanks for the ideas guys! Unfortunatly, i cant try the foam idea because i dont have any. Ill try some different size o-rings when i get home and see if that works.

Btw, if anyone wants to try the tape trick..poking holes doesnt work well. They like to close up as you inhale and u have to keep opening them back up. Try getting a paper clip, straightin it out and use a lighter to get the tip really hot. The just burn small holes in the tape between the iatty and ggtb. This is nice because burned holes dont close on their own like holes poked by needles. Try the draw after each hole till you find your desired pull.

I tried some o-rings from my set of backup ufs rings. The ones that fit on the connector post in the ufs also fit very well around the outside of the ggtb 510 connector.
It seemed to tighten up the draw just enough for me, and works great, but use a thinnner ring. the thicker ones i have just cut off airflow completely lol..

Yup, o-ring works very well! Thanks for that idea!
