Lisa sent me the O rings and the draw is greatly improved, no more whistling sound and the vaping is much nicer.

Now to find a way to stop myself getting through 2x 14500 full charges and 5ml of 18mg liquid per day while I'm working at home with the GGTS to hand :D

I refill the AFS 3 times per day Tyke:D:D:D

I work at home too. GG and insurances. Insurances became my second activity now because I never liked it:D

Hi Imeo,

As of today I am a new GGTS owner. I am using the 510 soft-tip cartomizers from vaporkings. TH, Flavor, VP, is all great. However I, too, am experiencing a pretty airy pull.

I am not quite sure how to interpret your O-Ring size in the quoted post below. 9/3, 9/1,5? I am not sure what measurements those are.

Can you clarify? Perhaps inside diameter and outside diameter? What is the proper material for these O-rings that will not be affected too much by the heat?

Thank you.

If you put only one oring the job will done ella my friend. Just dont push the o-ring inside the channel that is around the connector. Only put it on top and then screw the carto, so o-ring will stay exactly at the place you want. And dont put an 9/3 oring because it will close the holes almost totally. Please put a 9/1,5 oring so air will still pass:)

Hi my friend 5the

If you dont do as ella said then the o-ring you need is one with 9mm internal diameter and 2mm in width. If you dont want to put it inside the chennel between connector and cap then put it on end of the atomizer's threads and then start screwing the atomizer. The o-ring will sit on the channel but it will not go inside, so you can easy adjust it and easy replace it:)

Using part of the condom seems to help. I will play around with that some more and see if I can find a sweet spot.

I may also try the O-Rings. For anyone interested, any of the three items listed at the bottom of the attached picture from McMaster-Carr should do the trick. I think the temperature rating for all of them is sufficient.

Do you push this all the way to the bottom of the enclosure?

From what I can tell, I am blocking off all holes except for one. And still the draw seems too weak, compared to the standard 510 atties and cartridges I am used to.

Hey 5th, my lazy carto-slice is 5mm wide. Hope that helps and thanks for the stats on the o-rings.
