I send it last Wednesday Drake, so COV will have them soon:)
I was so stupid not to buy one from e-smoke. I had it pulled up on my phone, in my cart, then wasn't sure if I was going to be taxed on imports or if I could even use my debit card and by the time I decided, "well, let's find out" it was ripped from my cart. Im kicking myself in the head. I'm also beyond confused on wether the COV GGTS batch was sent last Wednesday, or this upcoming Wednesday (the 19th). If anyone could let me know, I would highly appreciate it.

-Points to Signature- As soon as my wife gets home with her Nikon I will set up the studio and take some glamour shots; for now my Signature says it all. My tracking information didn't update that it was even out for delivery so I went out walked down my yard to the street and saw something in the mailbox. I was already heaving a very heavy sigh as I prepared myself for ultimate disappointment. I got to the box and there was a letter and a package with a bunch of stamps on it and I scanned the surface of it and saw 'Greece'. I was ecstatic and could not even wait to walk the block up my yard to my house to open it. As I tore it open and fiddled to unwrap it from the bubble wrap I finally held it in my hands.

Angels descended from the heavens and at once like Link holding the Master Sword high in the sky I felt the old Zelda music playing and the sound effects for acquiring that sword.

My first thought was 'Wow this is kind of heavy, does this thing have a battery in it already?!'.

Once I got inside I instantly took it apart to admire it and place my adapter on and a Panasonic CGR18650CH. Screwed it altogether and plopped my iGo-L on it and again admire it before vaping. I was literally blown away, I have to admit that I could never have expected it to live up to the hype you see on these forums. It surpasses the Hype.

In an abysmal world I feel peace and happiness as though I owned an original Van Gogh and could look on it every day with happiness and introspection. Holding a masterpiece of such form, quality and function I never could have imagined it would be this amazing. When I pressed the button down for the first time I was once again amazed at the smooth quality every little thing about it I find simply amazing. I've only experienced a few mods some great and some terrible but I have to say I really don't think there is anything in the world that comes even close to this.

Once again if your sitting around waiting for it you don't have to believe the hype as the hype doesn't do it justice. Its purely and distinctly more amazing than the hype. What Imeo has done for the vaping world and myself is in my opinion on par with the beauty seen in a Van Gogh painting.

The GG is a Reflection of Imeo and in this mirror we might grasp for one moment a single glimpse of the divine.

Um, not sure I'm understanding you. For an 18500 I screw the stealth cap directly on the telescope (if I can't screw it down far enough with the top tube in place to make good contact)

Sure you might be able to unscrew the axis post a little to lengthen it a little bit, but you'll want to be careful that it's still sturdy for when the button presses against it. If it wobbles a lot it will wear out the plastic insulator that it screws into. Finding a longer spring to use might be a better option than raising the axis post that way. Just my :2c:

Yeah having the stealth cap just on the tele tube jut doesn't look right. And plus, their a little bit of thread showing when I do it that way. Using the top tube feels a lot better when put together. I just don't know where I can get a longer spring that'll fit in the axis post opening.

Thanks for the answers tho

Okay, I get you now. I just threw mine together like that with an 18500 to see how far off it is and it's quite a bit. I was going to suggest just stretching the spring a bit, but if you're seeing the same amount of room in there that I am (considering different batteries are not always the same dimensions) then that's a no-go. The only suggestion I can think of would be to get one of those little fuse things (like the Short Stop or similar) and put it under the battery. That might be enough to bridge the gap

But no threads should be visible when using base tube + telescope tube + stealth cap in 18500 mode. Telescope has different sizes of threaded parts at the ends, scre the stealth cap on the side of telescope tube with less threads.

What are those fuse things? I've never seen one. Happen to have a link?

I know CoV used to carry them. I'd give you a link there if they do, but it looks like the feeding frenzy over the release of the GGTS batch has crashed the site :facepalm:

Try looking there later tonight or tomorrow, after the traffic has died down and everything is back to normal over there. There's a couple of different ones: the ShortStop from Holocron Labs and another called "2 cents for safety" or something like that

Remember to get the rethreader wif the stealth cap to use 18350 nicely w/o the telescopic tube.

Jeff, this is normal for a non-pre-order CoV sale. Just take a few deep breaths and keep trying every couple of minutes.

The sale that I got my Ody in, about a year and a half ago, took me well over an hour to make it through checkout. The site has been improved since then, but it still crashes when everybody starts hammering on their F5 keys

I means its not much showing. Maybe 1 or 2 of the threads. it just doesnt look right. But yes, i believe i have ou on right. More threads on the base tube and the one with less on the stealth cap. Ill take a picture tomorrow and show you what it looks like with mine. Currently at work for the night
