The directional air flow inside the deck is a soft part.I'm trying to understand this leaking over time thing.
Are the o-rings degrading or becoming malformed or something? There's no way that stainless steel can change in a matter of weeks by being exposed to ejuice in order to account for this.
If it isn't leaking when somebody gets it, why would it start later? With any atomizer for that matter. It has to be something in the soft parts.
Does anybody know what it's made of?The directional air flow inside the deck is a soft part.
I'm driving myself crazy with trying to find where it's coming from, I'm 99.9% sure it's not through the air flow as it's always dry it there if I put paper towel in there after a big pool of juice over my mod I think that slight gap around the bottom of the af before the 510 could be the problem but how would it get through there and not pool inside the af as thats directly above it (confused)Does anybody know what it's made of?
But taking a look at VV,s cross section, I don't see how juice could get from the tank to the airflow without going through the wells. In other words, the same way every other rta leaks. The red oval seems to be the only area where it would be possible if it were, but there's no path through there. Not one loose enough to explain anything more than an almost nonexistent dribble. Unless I'm really missing something, which is possible of course. This assumes the accuracy of that drawing too though.

My leak was not coming out of the airflow but out of the base. So maybe it seeped down the middle along the inside ledge of the curved airflow insert.Does anybody know what it's made of?

Mine is defo through the base as took the tank off earlier plugged the af holes with tissue as tight as possible and dried the base and then blew through it and around the ring on the base could feel air and then juice started seeping through it and when i took the tissue out of af it was dryMy leak was not coming out of the airflow but out of the base. So maybe it seeped down the middle along the inside ledge of the curved airflow insert.
idk...

Edit: Would make sense especially because my airflow insert was not aligned correctly. It actually blocked part of the hole in the air flow ring. I posted pics of this early in the thread.
Yh must be, mine was fine for few months and brought my partner 1 a couple of weeks after mine and hers started leaking yesterday aswell, will never purchase a vv product again. I no off topic but any recommendations to a decent rta that's not gunna ruin another mod due to leakingThe [plastic or whatever non metal] material they used for the insert could also be heat sensitive, the reason why some don't leak for a week or longer then start. idk . Their designs can look good, but they cheap out on manufacturing.
I got the dead rabbit rta today and I'm enjoying it so far. Nice dense, moist vape at 75watts. Although if I go higher than that, the whole tank gets really hot because the air doesn't directly hit the coils.Yh must be, mine was fine for few months and brought my partner 1 a couple of weeks after mine and hers started leaking yesterday aswell, will never purchase a vv product again.

Some version of this might be it.The [plastic or whatever non metal] material they used for the insert could also be heat sensitive, the reason why some don't leak for a week or longer then start. idk .
You came real close last night, lol. I had a window open looking at vape sites for deals on a Lotus. Sigh, then I found a deal for a new black aromamizer supreme v2.1 that I just couldnt pass up. Still want to give the Lotus a try at some point.I refuse to die before somebody tries that Lotus and tells me how right I was
Uhg. I have another window open and Efun has both the Zeus X and Lotus on sale for 18 bucks each. Decisions decisions.I'm debating on a Lotus, but also the True mtl rta. That looks like an amazing tank. I like the clamp system deck on it.

Ha ha, OK so you're going to play the role of the little devil, anyone want to be the angel?That's an easy one. Get them both
You win!!!!!Ok, I'm officially done and had to close the window...
After ordering 1 black Lotus rta.
Does that make the final nail in the coffin?You win!!!!!
Well, I wasn't planning on dying, but I suppose if I were, you may have hastened the event .Does that make the final nail in the coffin?
I hope not, lol.Well, I wasn't planning on dying, but I suppose if I were, you may have hastened the event .
I'm putting my Kylin v 2 back in it's box, the one drop per tank leak has gotten worse. I wish someone knew how to fix it because it's a great flavor tank.
I like my Zues X alot. I like a few other RTA's alot too, but as a package, nothing beats that LOTUS.I gave in and threw it in the bin I now have 2 x Zeus X brilliant tank no leaking easy to build and wick
I have a lotus on the slow boat coming.I like my Zues X alot. I like a few other RTA's alot too, but as a package, nothing beats that LOTUS.

Above my spending threshold.have you tried a Reload ? the decks look kinda sorta the same.
It will be worth the wait.I have a lotus on the slow boat coming.
the dawg rta deck is similar as well.have you tried a Reload ? the decks look kinda sorta the same.
Same here. Mine shipped February 27th and its still on the boat.I have a lotus on the slow boat coming.
I have the kindbright clone and it's the only tank I've used in the last 2 weeksthe dawg rta deck is similar as well.
Waiting for my tax return and I'm going to order a reload rta from their site. Been wanting to scratch that itch for a long while now.
Above my spending threshold.
If there is such a thing as a better vape from an RTA than the Lotus (Maybe there is) I honestly don't need it. That is the closest to perfect, at it's intended purpose, piece of vaping gear I own and I paid 20 and 18 for the last 2 I bought.
I'm just being honest.
Nothing wrong with clones, IMHO. I dont mind spending the money for the reload since the quality of the machining and flavor are very good. If I like it I'll buy a second one for a backup.I have the kindbright clone and it's the only tank I've used in the last 2 weeks

Oh no, I didn't take you that way at all, but I am nobody you should fear disagreeing with eitheroh. I'm not trying to disagree with you, at all. just wondering if you had tried a Reload.
My only experience with clones is that pair of Panzers I got from a guy a on Craigslist they are REALLY good. In fact, I've found a consensus online that says that both of the ones I have were better than the authentic.Nothing wrong with clones, IMHO.
I will be very interested in your impression.Same here. Mine shipped February 27th and its still on the boat.
