i would love to have the option to have an engraving on a gg if i got one...can this be done after purchase???it would be cool to have an optional extra of an engraving in my opinion : o)

i hate to say it but ive learned in looking for a mod looks are a big issue for me anyway...your gg is the most beautiful ive seen but i would like to personalise it somehow...

i don't know if these are available but i would love to see a bullet like case that unscrews to slide the pv in and out of to use(with rounded smooth ends)...perhaps with a chain attachment...i know there are lanyards but id love to see a silver/gold one with the gg logo on it...and again perhaps an engraving option....this would for me send the gg into a higher level of collectable(and practical!)

...i know ggs are expensive but these are all ideas that could be added to the catalogue of items. if the gg lasts as long as everyone seems to think it will wouldnt a suitable/practical/indulgent housing for it that will last forever be a good extra to be able to purchase?

the main problem to this is the cost sweety:)

the cost is time and money. My time to make something like this is very big because I have to change all the production line. Time to think how I can do it. Money to pay for a unique model to the factory because it will have parts that I cant make myself and the factory has to make only one piece. The cost is so big that no one will buy this GG:):)

aha...this is great news...to get engravings near me costs very little to make an amazing piece of art more personal...would love to hear/see pics f anyone whos done this???or would it ruin the gg in your opinion imeo???

thanks for the info...

I dont think that it will ruin it sweety, I think that if the design is good it will make it beautiful. But you will find others that will say the oposite. Its a personal desision, but there is no problem because you can do it, then to put GG in a wheel to dissapear it and they to make a new one, or nothing, or GG logo again:)

I made the surface of GG like this, so anyone can do anything on it. If surface is ruined for some reason then no problem again, you put GG in a wheel and its new again with maybe a new design on it.:)

Its not dificult guys. I have already made a slim with button on top like GGTS so its not something special but I dont want to ruin the slim's design, thats all:)

We already have a passthru on GGTS why we need a passthru on Slim? Smaller passthru? I dont really see a reason for this guys, sorry :(

I believe I asked for this months ago. A GG Slim passthru would be awesome. As an option of course. Especially because those 10440 batteries are not the longest lasting little buggers. With a passthru you want small. And a GG passthru would be the best!

Plus we could always use it for HV vaping if we had a wall plug thingie like you have....

Hey Imeo. Long time my friend.

I have just received my Trans from Vapor King and long awaited. I have been using the original GG (2nd or 3rd gen)for a long time (without upgraded switch). Now that I have the GGT it is truly amazing and just a work of art. My only gripe is the switch. I have long awaited a lock though the original seldom triggered when in my pocket. I like the design of the switch in theory, simple and functional but it IMO is way too soft (It seems if you look at it wrong it goes off) and a mil or 2 too long (screwed in as far as I dare there are still plenty of threads in excess). Also when I put it in my pocket the lock ring comes unscrewed a bit at times. Maybe the length of the switch can't be changed as I am sure you try to make things as streamlined as possible but I would love a much tighter spring. Not hard but one you have to push like on the GG Grant. The one on there now I just have to barley touch no matter what the length is at. Defiantly a hare trigger.

Imeo will probably one day make an adjustable button. It will give him something to do after he has all his new devices perfected. There isn't much left to invent. I like the hair trigger myself but I can see that a man might like a more manly type spring in the button. :):):)

Hi my old friend Kos, nice to see you again, Im hope you are very well!:)

I made a very soft button because it has the lock, option so I thought: Why to make it hard so people have to put strength to push it? Of course its not so soft that can be activated if you let it on a table but yes its soft because I liked it that way.
As for the length, I notice that, so GGTS has a 3mm shorter button and the turns you have to make if you want to lock it are not 6 anymore but only 3:)

Dont look the button in the wrong way, please be nice with it xxxxxxaaaaaaa

thanks friend for the suggestions, I already made the one of them but I dont want to make the second one because I like it soft. As for the locked nut that comes unscrewed sometimes, you mean that it gets totally unscrewed? You mean that it comes out of its threads totally? If yes, then the button is unthreated from its base. If this is happening, please send me a pm to tell you a very simple way to fix this issue:)

Hi Imeo,

There might also be a gap in the market for premium but better made box style mod. At the moment these are pretty much plastic affairs so their casings are obviously vulnerable and the switches will give out (which I know is a problem for you). However, the form factor appeals for ultra portability and the larger box mods present other possibilities for juice carriage etc.

Considering the earlier remarks about plastic tips and health, another and more practical option which would fit the aesthetic of the GG would be to make some metal ones..

We stopped smoking to stay healthy Vaug, let it be that way. I care for aesthetic because you see it on the GG all the time but its a second priority for me. My first priority is always the same. To stay healthy.:)


ps.......... better to smoke an aesthetic sh***t cig than a nice one but with a gone purpose

I think you are looking for something like this?
They sure look nice but they are cold to the lips in winter.
