All is dry this AM on the True.

Mine started leaking again today, juice on the bottom of the base and my mods pin base. Not impressed.

This is just a thought, but the Dog is so forgiving with wicking that I just push the wick in the slots compacting it maybe a little to much but it's so forgiving it just works. I also did this with the True and I think that might have been part of my problem with leaking on the first go around with this tank. Later today I'm going to rewick the True and leave the wick a little less compacted in the wicking slots. I don't know if you did the same as I did but I think the wick needs to be very fluffy in the slots to prevent oversaturation of the wicks. This is just a thought. I'm going to try this later.

My solution to the leaking, so far, is just the opposite of your solution. I trimmed the tails so they fit flush in the grooves. Go figure.

That's not good news.

Okay just took it completely apart, including air flow ring, there is a white o-ring under it and not replacement for that one, so I took it off and re-seated it. Also trimmed the wicks and made sure they were not touching the base at all. So far working like a dream now, just hope it doesn't leak anymore.

You may have something there - makes me wonder: what id are you guys using on your coils? I do 2mm, because I found it the best for the doggy. And I never thin, fluff, etc. Of course, larger dia means more wick in the channels. But wicking the True is just a little different. When I rebuilt the doggy, the remaining juice in the channel let me easily just tuck it in. With the True, I have to put a couple of drops on the wick before tucking it in there to make it stay in place. So maybe the True isn't quite as forgiving on wick size as the doggy? Looking at AngeNZ's pics, you can see the channels are shaped a little different.

I've used 2 and 2.5 mm coils, didn't really make any difference, but this time I used 2.5 and thinned & fluffed the wick quit a bit. I do same as you, put some drops on the ends and just tuck in the channel, but yes the channel on the True looks a fair bit smaller than the doggy.

Refill #2 has gone well, so far.

Everything is working great on the tank so I just refilled again , and again, I can't put this down.

It really is different, isn't it? Hard to imagine how solid a vape it is until you try it. What flavor do you vape in it?

Ahlusion - Boba Tea Coffee

OKay it's been 3 days and 2 refills now and NO leaks! Now I'm really liking it again

Can't remember- did you find why yours was leaking?

I think it was the white o-ring under the air flow control, just re-seated it and no more leaks

How did you get to this o-ring?

 

[Brewdawg1181]

You can just pull the ring straight off. Pressure on the oring is all that is holding it on there.

Gonna order one next week. It better not replace my doggys or I'll be grumpy

 

[bigbob2322]

It just might Ange.

I may be a bit dense, but I don’t see a white o-ring

Thank you FT, for the credits. Thank YOU, Enablers, as one more True is going to hit the streets of SoCal. Wow, I'm surprised I did so, as I love my ARFS.

Good luck to moi and the Ange.
