Got myself one of these tanks to see what all the good reviews are all about. Even though it's a juice guzzler I'm very impressed with the stock coils, no leaks but they do get gunked up within a couple of days. The problems occur with the rebuildable section. Filling above the top of the atty it leaks like mad so can only partially fill the thing. Tried different o rings and everything else to seal that thread without any success. Anyone else had the same problem, if so, any ideas how to fix it?

Yes, with the mini baby beast I could the only way I could stop it pissing out with 100% PG was stuffing so much cotton it would not wick enough to run over about 20 W. It maybe you need more VG in your liquid, which is a no no for me unfortunately.

thebishman Thanks for the idea. I thought that so I changed the wick and put quite a lot more in the juice channels, no problems there until I fill above the top of the atomizer where it screws into the top section, then I might as well pour juice out of the bottle.

VapingBad I'm using 100% vg, it doesn't seem to be a wicking problem, just a seal or seating prob.

Thing is the more you fill it the more pressure is forcing liquid into the just channels. Could be coinicdence. Put a pick up so we can see

VapingBad thebishmanThanks for all your help guys. I think VapingBad was right, rewicked this morning with quite a lot more cotton forced into the juice wells and so far, no leaks and seems to be wicking better too. Was getting lots of spitting before now it's gone. Thanks again
