I just discovered Fontoon's Spectrum M1 uses GG compatible threaded parts. Don't see any imediate reason to seak one out or what may be useful but I like to document anything with potential compatibility with the mkb.

Most interesting part of spectrum to me is the 510 dripping atty supercooling housing with airflow control.

I got my info from Todd's reviews.

Well, I broke down and decided to get a MKB-TS from MOV, very nice price as well. I wanted to purchase one that has the brass/gold colored spring for the battery but couldn't find where I had seen it in the past. I also ordered 2 GGTS bases for my Nautilus and upcoming Hercules. Btw... has anyone come up with a new/better spring to use to might decrease the voltage drop?

On a side note I decided to rebuild my Nautilus with 28awg kanthal and 30 nickel and finally got a .8-.9ohm coil, just what I had been hoping for. It was a little tricky with the thicker and stiffer wires but it's Vaping away quite nice :) Looking forward to getting my new mod.

Yes 28 gauge is a little trickier to twist but certainly doable

Hey Craig, i looks like your all over this thread and the Nautilus/Terminator/Odyssey one as well. Do you know if the Ithaka clone has the GGTS base already native to the device? I did order a 2nd base just in case it doesn't but since I'm a super new to these types of rebuildables I thought you might know.

I did find this little guy which looks like the adjustable 510 adapter but it is $10 but like $27 shipping!!! http://vapourtrend.com/shop/electronic-cigarette-pv-s-mod-s/mkb-ts-adapter2013-06-06-01-42-42-detail

It is GGTS by default and has a 510 adapter that resembles the collector tank and air control ring of a MKB-TS
The linked adapter is for use with the gold top cap in 510 mode

Props to dwcraig for getting my mkb back up and running- been loving it for two months. A month back the switch dissasembled on me, I fixed it with a pen spring. Then, my gf dissasembled it and lost that spring and I couldn't get any other spring to fit. He sent me a new switch assembly along with some ekowool. That stuff is awesome btw

Anyone else have problems using the locking ring without disassembling the switch

As long as you set the throw to where you want it, and then snug the locking ring with pliers, it should stay put. The same goes with the firing pin.. Take a small box-end wrench to the hex on the inside, and snugly tighten the hex on the button..
