2 x - 12x1 mm (base - adapter)
2 x - 8x1 mm (evaporator lid)
2 x - 4x1 mm (waterproofing / air tube evaporator lid)
4 x - 12x1 mm (seal / tank base and Driphalter)

My German isn't great, but I think this says 12x1mm (Clivia? Mein Deutsch ist nicht so gut ):

You can buy the complete set from white fog in the uk:
www.whitefog.co.uk/en/taifun-gs/518-taifun-gs-o-ring-set.html

 you get the whole set - 14 pieces all together - so yes you get 2 of those 12x1 mm

Today's prob - o-ring on bottom of centre post jamming to cause the cap to come off when you refill....

1/2 hour spent rewicking and cold porridge

Am playing with thin wick and different pg/vg ratios. Will get this sorted

fixed problem with screws

Just for the record this is what I'm using for my taifun gs wicks

pull off about 15cm and do your twirling the ends (wetting your fingers) then unlike rayon (you have to take about 0.5cm off first) you twizzle the rest so it doesn't block the air hole then put in as videos. If you don't twizzle the rest of it you have probs with it blocking the airhole/getting caught in the threads

I've been playing with this hcigar taifun clone most of today (sabbath)...it's beaten me...

Back on good old davide mega

Rest assured they'll be various bits and bobs going on classifieds first thing tomorrow including a mis sold Precise Plus that takes 18500 batteries (Pepperty?) which I thought would take 18650s LOL

Not today cos it's sabbath remember?

I'm playing again with taifun...

Currenlty trying mega thin cotton wick and 60/40 (pg/vg) mix. So far so good so keep praying folks

@johanino that is rayon! Doh!

[tomvaper]

I'd implore anyone with a taifun to keep trying if things aren't going right. When I first got mine it was a complete gurgle/flood fest and I wanted to launch it up the garden.
I eventually got it sussed and it's now an integral part of my vape gear.
I use a microcoil with a strip of cotton and a 2mm length of silica on top as a sort of soaker wick just to plug any gap in the chamber wick hole.
Massive juice capacity and fantastic flavour

Edit just realised your talking about the GS doh!!

Is definitely not rayon!!!!. I have rayon and am not using that.

I am not a complete luddite

You are so right. Taifun GS tastes a lot better and vapes better than even my beloved Davide when it works right ......

Just don't play with the wicking for 4 hours one Sabbath afternoon

My mistake, sanek cellucotton are the manufacturers of the rayon everyone's buying @johanino

Are you still having problems with your Taifun Jo?

I got mine to work perfectly the first time. No issues and a great vape. Re wicked it and do you think i can get this thing to vape again. No either flooding or dry hits. Just cant get it right again. Leaving it till the weekend now and will give it another go.
Gutted as it was such a good vape.

Sent from me from some far away land.

Nope Roscopecotrain

My friendly vets sorted it

I use a really thin wick and 60/40 juice mix......odd bit of flooding nothing major. Just use a tissue to get it all out and the 'whack' method. Sorted
