Solid Brass connector for AVS ???

[Zaiden]

MWA, I couldn't agree more. I'm glad this thread is seeing the light of day. Personally, I don't care what the end result is from a cost-basis. Let's just say it's Gold....if I have to pay a thousand dollars to guarantee the healthiest possible way of vaping, I am all in on that. There are a lot of very intelligent people in this forum...I'd imagine we can all come together with the research and knock out an answer fairly quickly.

Imeo, no matter what the answer is, we are not saying that the previous builds are bad. Learning and moving forward is the GG way. If people want a less expensive GGTS they can stick with aluminum. However, I have no limits when it comes to my health. I love vaping, but I want to do it as healthy as I can. That's the whole point of vaping for me.

Very well stated and I am in total agreement with you, Zaiden, concerning my health, vaping, and Imeo!!!

Once again, I totally agree!!! I HAVE to vape VG only...

Any studies in this using all VG with brass?

Hi Viktro.... no idea about VG and brass. I posted the pictures of the green PG here because I saw them on another thread. I haven't seen anything on VG. I've recently been puffing a home brew that's mostly VG. I like the thickness of the vapor.

I agree that there shouldn't be any cause for alarm or panic about brass and everything oxidizes. If I had a unit with a brass tube I'd still use it as long as it tasted good and I wouldn't let the juice soak. The juice cycles through quick and isn't in long enough to pick up much of anything if at all. Even if it did I doubt there'd be enough to do any harm.... it's not like lead or mercury. I wouldn't pick brass but that's personal preference. I didn't mean to overstress the use of additive in that link, I was just trying to be clear as to what it said.

Zaiden... maybe you need to make or buy a solid (or silver plated) PV. Silver is used to purify water and and used as an antiseptic and disinfectant in medical appliances.

Silver would be the best thing for the contacts too as its great for electricity but again it is expensive

My dear Victro, aluminium is not connected with Alzheimer's Disease, thats a myth. I dont know how this started but many people think that its true. Its not scientific discovery and its totally wrong.
Also nickel is not toxic exept it comes to large quantities. You receive nickel every day from food and water. Also stainless steel contains nickel thats why it doesnt rust quickly. Sorry dear but we have to be accurate to what we say, yes? Thanks for your concern for me

Cape, PG has anticorosive properties adding or not adding the additive. When we make a dilute we are based on the base of the dilute. All the other stuff is just to make properties of our dilute stronger. I am sure you understand this.

MWA, I agree with you and I dont want wrong info to this thread. All people that bought and will buy AVS are totally safe. But if you and others want a steel AVS just because you feel better thats ok with me.

Zai, its not a matter of cost, its a matter of information. AVS will cost exactly the same if I make it from steel but its not nessesary. But as I said if this makes you feel better I will do that. Maybe I will do it from plastic if this makes you feel even better, no problem

Siver corrodes very easily cape. I havent made a search about its corrosion but you see that every metal has its issues?

Besides the discussion on what material it should be, why not discuss how it works.....

I have received the 510 adapter, but.... tried different 510's with different ohm ratings, 510 carto's, different batties, the adjustable ring in all possible positions and all I get is gurgling, leaking into the collector's tank. Also while filling I kept the CR open, close, half way, cleaned the collector's tank, dried it, tried it again and again. I am using 80 PG/20 VG liquid. I aslo tried thicker juices but same results or burning after one or two hits, primal hits etc. After two primal hits: flooded!! I noticed when closing the ring so no air should come through, when I blow into the attie and hold the center pin closed, there is still air coming through the ring, so it cannot be totally closed. It is a good idea, but again I am afraid we end up with being paying beta testers.

Rob had few of the same problems at first especially with the leaking but once he watched Imeos video and set it up exactly like Imeo did he has not had one issue with it since and he has been vaping on it since Thursday and loves it.

Michelle,

I have watched that video, nothing in there I missed IMHO

What juice (VG?), atties and batties are Rob using?

Emonty

He has been going between 2 tenergy RCR1323A lifepos or the AW 18650, 100% PG eliquid, and a 510 cartomizer.

 

[emonty]

will give it another try, but with all the set-ups already done it gurgles and leaks all over the place....

* Generally, the further apart items are on the table the greater the galvanic corrosion that will result.
* The material closest to the anodic end will corrode more rapidly.

I will still take my high grade stainless steel as my choice Imeo and if you build them cost effective I would like one !

 

[VaporKings_Michelle]

Im sorry Emonty he has been using a 510 LR atty....I am so used to seeing him with the 510 cartos on his GGTS that I assumed that was what he was running in the AVS...lol And he said he has been running mostly the AW 18650 battery. He said he had to adjust the center pin because it was not up enough when he first put the connector on the AVS and that the liquid was running out where that pin is. I hope this helps.

Hi Emonty, I am glad to see you again my friend.

If you have flooding problems then the solution is easy. You can always ask me about anything.

1) screw very well the 510 connector

or

2) Replace the 510 control ring with the o-ring you have from the 901 AVS connector.

GG users are always beta testers Emonty. All people that want to try a new invention are beta testers. We all vapers are also beta testers on e-cigs

ps... dont forget that this ring was made to stop liquid, not air. Thats why when you blow inside atty air still comes out.

 

[mwa102464]

The AW 18650& LR510 is my fav set up it runs great and the reason is the AVS is one of if not the only units that keeps this Atty wet enough.!!!

 

[emonty]

ok tried it again, a 510 carto floods immediately, even with the adjustable ring closed. next try again a 510 3.5 ohm attie on 6v, now it works ok, not great, by not taking too hard of hits it works with in the background a little gurgling but no leaking so far....adj. ring opened by only 2 mm, if more leaking and flooding...will do a tank to see if there is really an improvement over the kr808d turbo's which still is the only 100% solution for me.

 

[mwa102464]

Try a 1.5-1.9ohm 510 emonty

 

[emonty]

Try a 1.5-1.9ohm 510 emonty

don't have them right now, only LR Cisco 306's, regular Joye 510's and IKV 3.5 Ohms......

When you refill and close AVS try this to avoid overflooding CT and atty: put off the small cap, close the big cap, push o-ring in place, put and screw well the small cap.
