Great thread, vapn! Was about to throw away a perfectly good (4+ week old) 510 atty when I remembered this, and gave GGTS #61 a good cleaning. It's back now to throat cannon status.

Hey, imeo, would you consider giving this thread a sticky status?

Thanks, Clyde

Nice idea and already done clyde my friend:)

Where do you buy it?

The product I use is called Noalox by Ideal...It's a very popular product in the Ecig Mod world.

Its also very good to put a lil bit on threads...Keeps the threads lubed up and prevents them from locking up...

Noalox is also a Anti-Oxidant...So a very very lil bit on electrical contacts can aid in keeping your GGTS firing like a champ. You only need a very lil bit...dont overdue it.

You can find Noalox by Ideal in Home Depot and also Lowes...in the Eletrical section. You can also find it all over the internet...Just google it.

I think the silver grease is different from the noalox. I've already got that.

I thought I was having the oxidation cleaning trouble for a bit, and turns out it was my 510 atomizer showing its age. Half an hour puffing at 6v brought her right back to life. Went back to the 18650, and she's puffing right along.

161 is still sitting in a desk drawer. It's so pretty, I almost don't want to soil it with my dirty, dirty hands.

To stress the importance of cleaning, I thought I would share this story.

I received my i3 attys from Rob last week but had no time to try them till today. I first put one on my GGTS which had not been cleaned in 2 weeks...busy busy! After an hour of very little vapor I put it on my clean GGSlim....tons of vapor and flavor instantly.

Hence, I took my poor, abused GGTS apart, cleaned it, put the i3 atty back on. I now vape clouds so thick I can't see through them. :thumbs:

BTW, Lowe's has the bigger 4ox (school sized glue bottle) of noalox on sale for Five USD plus change. What's nice about it is that you can choose the size of the hole for less messy, more precise applications.

I only had to clean mine once in a month, and I believe the noalox had something to do with that. I think it keeps the aluminum from oxidizing where it connects to the brass telescope and et cetera, and ensure the flow of current from the battery(s) to the atomizer.

I have been using Ox Gard on my connections. Is Noalox better?

Saw this idea in a thread for cleaning the prodigy button thread: take a pencil eraser to the brass part.

I instantly flashed back to being an army cadet out in the field, where this was taught as a quick and efficient field expedient way to clean the brass contacts on the old PRC-77 (..... 77) radio handsets.

Since the ggts uses a brass button and center doo hickey to make a connection, this should work for it as well.

Hope this helps someone.
