here is the info on the leaking im seeing with my Reo grand.


1. 3.7-4.2 (unregulated mod)
2. 1.8 Ohms
3. black
4. 100% VG
5. Boba's Bounty
6. fills the catch cup on my reo in about 30 seconds to a minute
7. unsure, primed it with 10 drops then starting using the bottom feeder
8. I primed the atty with about 10 drops of liquid and let it sit for a few minutes to see it it looked like it was leaking and didnt notice anything, I then hit it a few times and then used the bottom feed to replenish juice and then it started leaking, I may have flooded the atomizer but I seemed to get much more leaking then I ever do when using a 306 so I don't think that is the only problem. When I get home from work I'll meter a battery and make sure I am at 3.7 and give it a shot. Can't wait till you get these fixed as the flavor is awesome but the overflowing catch cup can get annoying.

--edit-- tried again with a battery metering at 3.7v and it still leaked, it might be possible that the mesh was already disrupted from the first time I tried to use the atty though as its still leaking a rather large amount. If it would help I can send my atty back to be dissected.

Try using the Danco #83 O-Ring, slip it over the Atty and push it down to the catch cup, adjust to your liking on the draw it will creat a vacuum and Auto feed your Atty and you wont have to Squank the juice bottle anymore and should Auto feed this Atty just about perfect, as well you wont get anymore leakage at all. The Oring will give you Auto feed, no leaks, and adjustable draw, takes alittle to get it set just right but once you do it is Blissful vaping 101

lol you actually already recommended that to me in another thread. It's an awesome little trick though, now I can actually use the cannon on the reo and its awesome! way better flavor than I get off of a 306, but a little cooler, awesome to have another option that doesn't require an adapter. Rob needs to start shipping O-rings with reos now so he can have a mechanical autofeed lol.

This atty either is leaking or delivering a burnt taste. I tried turning it upside down to get the juice to move up. These are not Ikenvape quality - at all. I got 3 and would like to return them. Two are unopened. I've wasted much time, juice and tissues with zero satisfaction. Love Ikenvape but this product sucks.

any luck with this on a Mini? I fiddled with it for a bit before bed last night and was getting the burnt taste even though i know there was a ton of juice inside the atty. When i unscrewed it it started leaking out. Is there any certain way i should prime it?

I had one that was giving me a bit of a burned hit. Then...doh...I thought to drill the hole out a bit. Alllll better :). Seriously, when I use these with the O ring, it's pure bliss. Have them on my REO Woodvil, Grand, and mini. All just perfect. 2.0 cannon stealth. Mmmmm hmmmm. That's what I'm talkin 'bout!

Yes, but personally I use a LR-510 or an LR-306 on my Mini with a Danco #78 Oring and this works super ! However if you want to use the Cannon with this O-Ring it will also work with the #78, as long as you find an O-Ring that will fit around any Atty and also create a seal in between the Atty+O-ring+Catch cup it will work, it will work on any bottom feeder with a catch cup, I even use this set up on my 2 VV Ali'i & Phidias units and it works, once in a while you still need to squank the bottle just to freshen up the flavor and to make sure you get any air out of the line or create the vacuum and as long as you do this it will work on most bottom feeders.

im thinking the air in the line may be my problem. i didnt mess with it long enough to get it figured out. I have a few good set ups that i love so its hard to mess with a half ... vape for to long. These Cannons definitely have a lot of potential. hopefully they will be tweeked a little

My 1.8 cannon gave the perfect vape but leaked like crazy until today (its a week old). I rinsed it out with hot water then soaked it in alcohol for a few hours then rinsed it again and let it sit to dry over night. I've been using it all day without a single leak. I dont know how or why this helped but it did. Just wanted to share so people that are having leaking issues could try.

NO HALF ... VAPE HERE !

You don't know till you try it, I have been using the Cannons on my Reo Grands with the #83 O-Ring since they where released or shortly there after and they Auto feed extremely well with only an occasional squank of the juice bottle with the #83 Danco O-Ring, I wouldn't even use these on anything that didnt have a juice well but that's just me. These things work extremely well on anything with a juice well ( catch cup ) whatever you want to call it, and the right size O-Ring around them !!!
