Sooo i recently purchased an atlantis evo tank and i have noticed that whenever i top it up with juice (as in when its less than half full) i generally tend to top it up before it hits to a very minimum and yesterday after topping it up and giving some primer puffs to saturate it i sat it down while i was doing something and when i came back i noticed the some of the juice had leaked through the airflow holes at the bottom. I cant figure out why?? Has anyone had this issue. i gave it good primer puffs but still it leaked. I emptied the tank to check if there are any parts that have a crack or so for this to happen but could not find anything

I had this issue with an EVO tank only once (not counting flights with any tank). I have two EVOs and have been using both daily since they were released. The only time it happened to me was when I didn't close off the airflow before filling AND shot the juice in too fast with a unicorn bottle. As soon as I did it, I knew I'd wind up with a leaking.

Hmm, this has luckily never happened to me. I would say that this tank is one of the most leak resistant that I've found actually. When I take out the coil to clean, almost no juice is underneath it, so it seems like they've generally found a way to solve the bottom airflow leaking issues. But just my experience.

Are you using the stock coils? My only thought is that I know sometimes Atlantis/Triton coils can fit this or similar tanks, but that tends to lead to leaking. Also, I mainly only use the .5 coils. Maybe the .4's are more prone to this. Garnoch's point about the fast filling might be it too.
