Can you use it in any atomizer? Taifun, Lemo and Drippers?

Yes, in theory, but due to the internal resistance differences between atomizers and electrical continuity efficiency, some atomizers are more stable than others.

For TP to work well, one needs a very stable resistance reading. This isn't always present in clones and even in some hi-end authentics (cough KF4), though people's personal experiences have differed.

In other words, TP performs best when the atomizer has solid connections from the 510 pin to terminal posts.

My authentic TGT2 performs perfectly.

T for Texas!
All of my GT1s are year and half old clones from fastec,and the 510 post would leak 50% of the time,especially if I needed to adjust it out for proper contact with a certain mod that diddnt have an ajustable 510. All of my new GT 2s fromm fastec are the ones you gus recommended a few pages back,these are different in the way the 510 is seperated from the chamber,so no possibility of leaking.I really like this change in design,although I kind of think the tank design is problematic.Have you tried the GT1 tank ona GT2,then this rta would be almost perfect.
I've used the nano tanks for GT1 with a GT2 base/chimney with great success. The full size orig tanks should work just fine.

Craig can you weigh in here. I know you have clones as well as originals

Thanks Toolman,I ahve finally made 4 of my tanks leakproof,I guess I will not take them apart for ultrasonic baths,just throw them in as is.I really like the way these GT2 tanks look.But for future reference thats good to know,now I have backups for my backups for the vapeapocilypse.

For a TGT on a mechanical I was building mine @ 0.7Ω, worked quite well.
I did the Royal wire 24g. at 9 wraps 2.4 mm dia.it came out to .4 ohms, fired it up and boy that was amazeing.Get a litle bit of a dry hit if I hit it 5or 6 realfast,but other than that its good. Warmer vape,but it sure makes the flavor better.I am no lnoger a tootle puffer I fear,thanks for the encouragement to move forward with this,although my baterries will need chargeing way more often,It was well worth it.

Just an update. The fact that one of my Taifuns works on all my mods and one does not like the Provari is something that just still stumps me.

I have been trying to get help on FB via Taifun GT page and on Smoker store.de and thru the SmokerStore contact.

To me, more than anything else, customer care and after sales help is THE most important aspect of a product. Sure they can sell you something, they can have an excellent device, BUT if they cant be bothered with a simple question, to reply to emails, FB messages etc. is NOT a good. It leaves a " bad taste" ( pun intended )

I have asked for help in English and in German, they've seen the PMs but no help. Maybe its a "German thing" Its too bad because the atomizer is top quality and tops in taste. These little things eat away on my mind and will probably end up with me ridding myself of them because everytime I see it or use it, I will be thinking that the modder doesnt give a ....

Just had to vent.

Have you tried adjusting the atty's 510 screw out a bit? What message does the mod say?

There's four TGT 2's not pictured but here are my main squeezes depending on what year it was.
On the left, MKB-TS (GGTS clone) with some type of Ody like atty (various parts). 2.5 year ago roughly.

My DIY Squonker flask with Evolv 40 board, current but fading fast, the 200D was to be released yesterday.

Thanks dems buddy... I will be ready with my money....

I didnt think Id want it, but I thought DOH, I could use it on my 22mm devices... I hope it has a dripper set up. Im in love with the TGT2 dripper kit.
I posted a pic of the dripper setup too, lol

I'll be ready also, it looks so cool

It's only 109 euros after VAT removal, seems like a good deal to me

I am just perplexed by the on going burning hits from my TGT2's. Does not happen with the TGT1 or the one that came out in the middle of the two. Did Craig call it as GS? Anyway....
I thought I needed to dremel out the wick slots but they are the same size on the 2 as they are on the 1. Did not change it because I do not want a leaking problem
I use mostly 50/50.
Could it be because I made bigger coils on the 2's?
I used to only use .70 bit and make a 1.5-1.7 coil.
I started using a bigger bit 2.4 (ish) because I thought I was supposed to with TGT2 due to more air flow.
Any advice?
