I don't now how it came in the end,when you put them close (the wraps) it's act
Like micro coil in away it's glowing from the middle out but it's not realy a micro coil just act like.
I don't measure any more as I allways running the same coil.
Latly I just added the extra wick on the resistence if you know,so in the atty The wire
Is wrap on 2 wicks.
This perform much better,it let me use 2mm wick in channels yet there is allways
Full saturated wick in the coil area.
It's just vape great for me this way.

I had to recoil, since my previous build was not that good.
Now: if coiled properly this thing doesn't need a break in, it just starts to vape from the beginning.
And: problems with the air leaking in aside, I like this better than Ithaka, honestly. Plenty of vapor, more hit, taste a little less compared to ithaka, but still good. I mean, I'm not vaping anything else since it arrived...
Back to the original issue:
Well, this could be an idea, yes, but I don't think it applies to my case. From experience with previous GG sistems I lubed properly the upper o-ring and the mouthpiece just rotates with no trouble at all and I don't think I ever applied too much force, since ot works...
But thanks!
Nice, thank you very much.
I mounted the Apex Alpha tip and it is almost as with no tip, almost. As I supposed, rotation of this tip means rotation of the entire mouthpiece, even if lubed with vaseline.
I want a one-piece mouthpiece as Penelope V1 so badly here...

Same thing for me... Unfortunately I can't vape with the AFC tip. I'll have to grab the same short tip as you guys.
Is there a US vendor for that tip? I haven't been able to find one except in Europe.
Not that one dark. Those are in EU
I think there are some other straights around. But the double oring on these has me sold.

I was afraid of that. I hate paying shipping for across the pond for such a small item...
By Leo's STR10 tip is what I'm using. It's 9 EUR and the shipping cost is 9 EUR. I had things shipped to Asia and it took almost two weeks to get here.
ok............
also... question
the 2nd arrow on the bottom....
does that point also come unscrewed? or only the point of the 'top' arrow. - i'm not sure...
no the base is still stuck... from last night... (we're different time zones lol)
i will take a pic
yes thanks CaptSteve... it's all new hardware to me... you can see my main equipment i love - in signature.

why does your ribbon wire have so many wraps? i only got 3 wraps out of the 1.5 ready made from greek guru...
and i order v2 version - it is not ribbon wire and it should be i think yes?
ok i just took a picture with my phone it's a little dark.
Penelope base is jammed shut to nemesis top cap.... i test on nemesis to make sure it fires correctly.
but naturally it's for my justGG.... just not ready... because still polishing brass.
i didn't 'jam' it onto the base... rather gently actually... but for some reason now it's tight as funk!
how can i get it off?... any mystical secret solution folks?
