Hello and welcome to the forum. Glad to have you here!
I vape my Atlantis at 45 watts, airflow wide open, using 50/50 juice. Lots of vapor for me.
What wattage are you using? What's the PG/VG ratio of your juice?

I've taken the wattage all over the place, up to 28w. have tried switching air flow after each time I up wattage...I've used 50/50 & 30/70...I'm not really a cloud chaser, so it's not that I'm just not satisfied with what it's producing lol I just know that ppl say the atlantis has the ability to produce pretty hearty clouds & im just not getting them!
And your airflow is all the way open?
Here's a crazy thought based on my experience with an iStick 50W: Check it see if there's a delay from the time you press the fire button to the time your Atlantis actually starts firing. The first time I used my 50W, I was really disappointed with the lack of vapor production I was getting out of my RDA, which I was running at 35W. I kept cranking it up until I hit 50W and vapor was still really thin. It then dawned on me that my iStick had a fairly long delay between between my pressing of the button and the coils actually firing...like almost a second. Thus, of the 5 seconds/drag I was taking at the time, I was inhaling air and not vapor for 20% of it. Once I adjusted (by pressing the fire button and waiting a bit before taking a puff), vapor production with my iStick improved tremendously. It's a long shot, but it might be worth checking for a delay.
Good luck.

Welcome to ECF
I agree withe the technique. I absolutely can't mouth to lung an Atlantis or subtank with stock coils at any airflow. Get very weak and harsh hits. Have to Lung inhale. If you haven't tried it you'd be surprised how different it is. I run my Atlantis at 35watts for just about everything.

I thought it was just my imagination lol but yes it seems that it takes about a second for it to actually fire. However, I always take a super little draw n exhale before I actually take a drag...As for technique, I can both mouth to lung and lung. Even completely open & direct lung, don't get much. I actually just pulled it apart to refill & notice quite a bit of juice coming out of the base/airholes. Am I flooding or is this normal?!?
I use my Atlantis between 25 and 35 watts and it chucks the clouds if you want
Maybe you got a dud coilhead...mine has never leaked

Mine stays dry as a bone. Maybe double check there should be a small clear or white o-ring near the bottom of the coil. Not the insulator, but where the coil seats in the base. I did have 1 coil come without one.
Now I'm worried. at the bottom, inside of the base, is there supposed to be a little plastic like thing covering the metal part that the coil sits on?
I also have a LOT of black gunk in coil already, have only used clear juice, primed correctly & all...any idea why that happens
I've seen a few folks install the coil while the base is still on the battery, this will often cause leakage and a poor connection. Removing the tank from the battery before refilling, and ensuring the coil is fitted tightly before re-assembly is a good practice. imo.The coil must contact the metal in the base to make a connection, there should be nothing there and both surfaces should be clean and free of liquid. Cheers.
I just refilled with a 10/90 juice, is that going to destroy coils faster? Sry about all the questions, I'm still relatively new (obvious I'm sure lol) & should I use higher or lower watt when the PG/vg ratio favors vg?
I think it may have been the juices I was using, kind of strange bc I was using 3 different brands, all same mix...but I'm getting pretty decent vapor production with this 10/90
I've had no problems with wicking with max VG juices, even when I chain vape...the coil head heats up enough to thin out the juice, giving me good flavor and very good vapor production
As far as coil gunking it usually goes the sweeter the juice the more it gunks.
And watts are what you like, shouldn't matter pg/vg. Just more clouds the higher the vg. For me it gets to warm above 35 watts.
Ive never had any problem with my atlantis. I went threw 4 .5 coils and all of them vaped great with all the mixes. I use it at 23w and prime the coils before i put on the tank.
If you wanna clean up any 0.5 ohm coil for extra life/better flavour I'll tell you what I do.
Grab a couple q-tips, peel some of the fuzz off each end until it can be gently twisted in and out of the coil.
Once you get to peeling off the right amount they'll clean up a coil pretty well.
I repeat until the q-tip comes out as white as when it went in.
Been getting many weeks use out of a single coil.
You wouldn't believe me if I told you. Cheers.
