MKB-TS Mechanical Mod (GGTS Clone)

[upsetter21]

Got my GGTS Oddy bases, thanks to the tip from dwcraig1. Three out of three screw right onto the MKB with no extra effort or machining. Had to totally re-think my center post rig... again. Also, seems I should have gotten the "oddy plastic" to insulate the positive post at the bottom against the new base. Fortunately I had a rubber shoulder washer that fits the bill.

Jeremy Evans, Stormy's Vapor Cellar has the Stealth Cap in stock currently. Coincidence or not, Stormy posted inventory just as Vapourtrend went out-of-stock. I'm beginning to realize there are only a few players working the GG clones. Also don't know how I seemed to receive the only defective stealth cap in the world.

My plastic washer is between the bottom o-ring and the nut for the positive wire of the Terminator center pin, I do this so the o-ring doesn't stick to the nut when unscrewing the repairable from the base, other wise it usually backs off the nut when unscrewed.

upsetter...I really dont understand why you are having so many issues????

I havent had to mod anything....though I do understand what dw is doing with the washer, as it will back off the nut. Sounds like most that have them arent having any issues.....

So I have read through most of this lengthy thread and I am wondering if someone can point me into the right direction for the Stealth style cap that will fit the MKB-TS

I just received this one yesterday.
New Top Cap for MKB-TS

The complete Choddy ceramic housing assembly fits just fine in a GGTS base, the extra long center pin is no problem in this application.
Let's see, what else can I say good about the Choddy? Oh ya, it comes in a nice box

ISSUES?

Right on UA72Riddle... I'm just a maniac. Got my first mech mod 4 years ago and haven't stopped modding mods since. Truth is I didn't HAVE TO mod anything on the MKB either, but I'm attempting to max out the function and longevity of my MKB. After mine worked OK out-of-the-box I decided it would be in my ability to make it better. My MKB happens to be totally titts right now. What you've read here is a history of group experiences, and for awhile there we were like early adopters.

I found a way to put the bottom cap on my dremel and spun it against some 400 grit sandpaper. Yup thats defiantly brass under the gold and copper plating...Good call inganeer If your wondering if I'm going to shine it up...nope. It's already got a nice patina going to match the Ace Hardware brass button and Ghost Modder top tube. By the time I die they should be completely black

The file uploader went funky on me, but here's the threaded adjustable positive post I made. Also a tank mod I made yesterday for a Diver.

The nylon insulator can be threaded off, and the post can be flipped to accept an eGo or 510 adapter. On the underside is a hardwood custom insulator with a brass instert that has inner threads to allow the screw-adjust of the center post. In the picture I have it ready to interface with the Oddy GGTS base.

There are supposed to be some nice GG top caps coming within a week or so. It's some kind of tarnish-resistant brass alloy with a beefy brass floating pin. they aren't listed yet, but I would imagine they will turn up here: GG Stealth Or here: Stealth Accessories

I more than likely will be tempted to grab one...

 

[upsetter21]

nice lookin out Technonut! Those electricals are fantastic! I'm totally stalking that item now.

Best vape I've had yet.

OK, I will first apologize for the noobness of my following questions. I just purchased a MKB and I did so before I discovered this thread. I have received my mod and was saddened to find out I couldn't just slap my Tank on it and start ripping. I use primarily a standard DCT and an AGA-T genny when I'm feeling frisky. My questions are, what will I need exactly so that I can vape my tanks on this mod? Also where would be the best place to get said parts? Thank you very much for any and all advice!

That should be all you need for a flush mount.....

I used this...

This link appears to be a better link....hope this helps

Ok, so I too love the MKB so I was experimenting. I put a Termintor-C top cap on the end of the MKB, it works pretty good, not a perfect look but cover the exposed threads. Just don't overtighten. Not bad?

Sigh, wish I would have saw your post earlier. I ordered a couple of the adapters last night from stormys.

I once called Sals and ordered "The bonzai" while visiting my friend. Lol, I was confused

 

[dwcraig1]

So what does DW use on the threads of his MKB-TS, well the same thing that I use on the threads of all my other mods, candle wax and very little. It's not going to make a mess or collect things like lint and grit (not much anyway). On the MKB I'm only doing the tele tube threads as it get all the exercise.

I highly recommend the new Orbtronic High Drain 2900mAh batteries. They can handle just about any coil. I'm telling you, it's easy to tell the difference between this batery and any other, no special testing equipment needed.
