Yes Switched the Cannon stealth. I too was able to drop about 13 drops at 1st to prime without it leaking, but as soon as I fired it, the juice came pouring out. I've been practicing with the drops and seems I need to keep it very dry in order for it not to leak. 2 drops at the most and I need to vape until I get that burning taste. Even then, after the 5th or 6th round, the juice still comes out. This is only with one 3.5. I have another and two 1.8's. I'll get to them later.
One good thing is that I wanted to test what it could handle (after I determined I had a leaker) It fires at 7.5 volts with no problem (except a slight burn) I just wanted to see if I could pop it. I couldn't so they should last for awhile anyway.

Update: Up until now, I have only been using the Canon Atty on an Ego/Tornado. Leaking, Leaking, and more Leaking!! As I said in a previous post, it's only when I Vape does it start leaking. I am still on the first Atty, I haven't tried any others that I purchased. I am not sure why it took me a couple of days to think of this :facepalm:.....I put the 1.8ohm Canon on my Altsmoke Alpha. I have been vaping on it for about 15 minutes......NO LEAKING!! :vapor: (so far anyways) I will report back tomorrow with another update. If this holds up....it seems that the atty's do leak, but it depends on which device is being used if it actually will leak. I can deal with only using it on my Alpha, but it does suck that it won't perform on my Tornado....my "go to" device.

To all the Members that are having leaking issues, please post which device you are using. If you have another 510 PV you can use, I would definitely try it with that. Let me know how it works.....Cheers All, and Happy Saturday Night!! (BTW, these atty's do Kick ... when they work!)

The 1.8 ohm stealth is leaking on my reo grand & mini and not feeding well. Now 7 hours in and no change. I resorted to dripping to see if that would make any difference with the leaking. It did not. The well has a good 2-3 drops in it at all times and does not feed into the atty dripping or bottom feeding. I usually run IKV 801's and have NEVER had this problem. I know the adapter works with his 801 attys. I shot him an email but he is probably busy with vapefest, so I am shelving these till I hear back from him. I don't have another PV to test it on.

Well, it was working until I removed the Atty this morning to blow it out to change flavors. I put it back on my Alpha and started having the same leaking issues. I was able to get it seated again so it wouldn't leak. Overall, I'm very disappointed. These Attys are too expensive for them not to work correctly. I hope Isaac will either refund me or exchange them.

I am having the same leaking problems too. Like tierrataz, I am using it on the Reo Grand but juice collects on the well causing gurgling all the time or dry hits if I don't keep it wet. I'm sure Isaac will investigate and get to the bottom of this when he's back from Vapefest. I'm wondering if the beta testers have a different batch as the time between testing and the release of the canons are not far apart.

Same thing is happening to me with my grand.I have tried several ways,only a few drops,letting it set for long periods,but it always starts to hit dry.This makes no sense because it fills the drip cup like it has too much juice.

Are you also finding the atty is not feeding from the catch cup?

If you are talking about the "canons" you shouldn't have no worries. The stealth 510s on the other hand I have not tried. I have a lengthy comprehensive review coming out on the "canons" 1.8, 2, 2.5 and 3.5 Ohms.

i believe they were called "cannon stealth" on the website. I definitely purchased the ones pictured at the beginning of this thread.

1.8ohm Stealth canon and 2.0 stainless canon are getting the thumbs down from me. I've been trying to like them but they just aren't working for me. Neither of them work with my Reo Grand or Mini. I blind squonk them and never feel the resistance. Regular squonking just fills the catch cup. Some fluid does go into the atty but it will eventually run back out and fill the catch cup, more so with the Stealth. This overflows the Mini's cup and makes for an annoying vape on the Grand. Dripping on an ego battery they will eventually make a mess. The 1.8 Stealth canon's draw is very tight and I think it runs hotter than my 1.5ohm 510's. The ss 2.0 canon is very airy. They both make plumes of vapor and the 2.0 tastes great. I've been using them for about 5 days with fluids from Boba's to Ikens pg Ry4.

this is sad to hear. Mine just shipped and i was really looking forward to trying them especially after the initial good reviews. there is a post about adding an o-ring in the REO tips thread, maybe that will help.

I want to try an o-ring but haven't had a chance to look for one. Maybe you'll get lucky with yours. I've bought vape stuff that was complete garbage before... these are not in that category. I like how they look. I like that when they run dry it comes on very subtle. They don't make fluids taste better to me, just a little different... I like that.

I found the stealth to be more airy than the 801 mini, my fav. Weird, but then with leaks, maybe it makes perfect sense. The leaking seems to be hit & miss and I'm certain Isaac will get to the bottom of it. I got one really bad one and the next is better. I'm too far out in the boonies to run out and get the o-rings until Friday's trip to town. It might help with the suction and getting the juice back up inside as well as the draw. If nothing else, it will keep hay and lint outta the catch cup, so it sounds like a winner ;-) Gotta love the auto feed feature, oops, some think its not good :lol:
