Hi to Phil and Demitri,
I'm a 64 year old long time fan. I have the original ares, three Zenith's and two zlides. I love them all. However I've had leaking issues with the ares and even though I really like building my own coils I don't use the ares much due to the leaking. I have tried everything to eliminate the leaking but haven't been able to stop it. I would like to get a couple of the new versions in the hope that I'll be able to rebuild without the leaking issues. Hopefully I'll win and the new versions won't leak. Have you had any issues with that on the new models??

Here is the troubleshooting video made by Phil for your reference:
Ares RTA Tutorial Videos – A Better Vape Experience
In section 4, he talked about leaking issue.
Consumers gave us feedbacks that they resolved the leaking issue by using fluffy cotton, like it does in the video.
When refilling your atomizer, close the airflow control ports, open it after you finished filling the tank. Make sure the O-ring is in good condition, replace it if needed.
Thank you.
