Imeo, my vote would have to be for multiple length extenders with a standard GG mouthpiece. I would rather just buy the one mouthpiece and adjust the number/length of extenders based on whatever my setup is at the time. I have heard that "you can't improve on perfection", but you continue to do it with each new innovation.

so, therte are 3 choices:

1. multiple length mouthpieces
2. multiple length extenders with a standard GG mouthpiece
3. multiple length extenders with the ability for a drip tip to fit on them. But this is a little difficult or maybe impossible because we cant machine a tube with 9mm external and 8,6mm internal diameter. Exept we change the refilling cap.

So include a new refilling cap with purchase. You know it makes no difference whether an extender costs $25 or $250. They'll sell out regardless. Spare no expense! :)

Inq's idea is not bad at all but better we can just make small same pieces one inside the other so user can put any mumber of them is required to extend the atomizer. But the final small extender has to be different. It has to fit the mouthpiece, something dificult as its external diameter has to be 9mm and the inside diameter has to be at 8,6mm. We can do it but we need a bigger hole on the refilling cap so the external diameter of the last tube can go at at least 10mm

You could try making Viton or other rubber couplers, something shaped like =||= and hollow from end to end. They would be easy and inexpensive to mold, leak free, and solve every problem I think.

I'm a little confused about the requirements for the refilling cap though. Wouldn't a drip tip sit on top of whatever extender tube in the center of the cap, rather than fitting inside? Why is inside diameter important?

Apologies to Zoranth for stealing his artwork, but isn't this how the center tube would meet the drip tip?

thanks for the suggestion guys and thank you SS for your nice words buddy:)

Ok, I found the best solution. No new refilling cap is required. We only need a new o-ring.!

Every UFS extender adds a length of 7,5mm to UFS. The solution is that we will make 7,5mm tall atomizer extenders, one inside the other. All extenders will be exactly the same and they will have the ability to fit any mouthpiece on them so we dont care in witch order we will put the one inside the other.

See, this is why I buy the stuff you make, not vice versa. Brilliant! :D

Imeo continues to amaze. My friend, the fact that you take our ideas and make them workable is a marvel. Guys I have to ask you, how many creators with the experience and mind that Imeo has would even bother to ask for our input? This is just another reason to love be a GG family member! :thumbs:

Okay....I thought once I had ordered my UFS I would be content and that the waiting would more or less be over. Unfortunately I am starting to get impatient. I know that the whole snafu at customs gummed things up a bit (I'm assuming a little more than expected considering the scrolling banner on COV yesterday), but my order status still shows "Confirmed". :confused:

Patience, young padawan. In due time the UFS you will receive. The path to the Dark Side are your thoughts. Remember your training. Save you, it can.
