Haha. My sink has claimed many a small atomizer part. I'm looking for the screw that keeps the tank together from the top.

I'll take some shots in the next 24 hours when I re wick. Once you get it figured out, you'll be good to go!
Are you talking about the nut?

hi friends for people who think this is like the Goblin IMHO I'd say it's better. I have both and I've had ZERO leaking with this tank where as the Goblin leaked like a sive! I like this tank . I've been running it at .3 ohms at 30 watts and I've got no dry hits at all, no burning, and it gives off a pretty great flavor. I'd say better than the Goblin. it is just better made in my opinion. I've had no issues with mine at all. I'd most compare this tank to a Orchid but better made..if your thinking of grabbing on I'd recommend it. the tank is a bit small, but mine has lasted a decent amount of time before refill. I highly recommend taking it apart, learning the parts and how each part works, what role the parts play. understanding the tank will greatly help with your builds. it's defiently worth adding to your collection. I really enjoy mine. hope this helps someone.

Just got 2 of these in today and couldn't be more impressed with the build quality, flavor and vapor production.
I purchase a quality driver and 10 stainless grub screws, only to find they came with both the original and stainless ones included. Had to recoil the first one twice as i overtightened to the point of cutting off the coils.

I'm off to make 250 mil of juice as these units suck up the juice like a drunk with a bar tab.

I don't know what's wrong with me. This simple dual coil build I have in my Cthulhu is working really nice, lights up evenly, but for the life of me I can't get this thing wicked right. I dread re-wicking because I'm finding it very hard to find the sweet spot on wick thickness. I've re-wicked this build 3 times since yesterday and every time I think it's perfect, I then start getting an off taste, and eventually it starts tasting burnt. I've followed pretty much every tip given on this thread and it still alludes me.

I'm cutting a thin, short tail for the slots, then trimming the shoulders to fit the curve of the deck.

My friend gave me one of his Cthulhu RTA's, and so far I'm enjoying it. The closest thing I can compare it to is definitely my Goblin V2. The Cthulhu has about the same airflow, and overall vapes similarly. The juice channels are deeper and tends to run at a slightly higher wattage without dry hits. One of the only down sides I can think of is the useless bottom fill hole, which seems redundant and pointless to have on a top fill tank. My friends leaks at the bottom hole, and he can't make it stop. Mine hasn't started leaking yet, so maybe it'll be okay for now. I'm running a dual 26 gauge coil, wrapped 9 times on a 2.4mm screw driver. At 0.52 ohms, it's vaping nicely.

The Cthulhu is built like a tank, and is quite hefty for a small tank. It has considerably more parts than any of my other tanks, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. I think overall, I give this tank a big thumbs up. 8.5/10

*Oh, and I forgot about another negative, the grub screws, and the cheap driver they included. The allen wrench they include rounds out after the first build. My friend thought it was the screws, but after buying a quality set of allen wrenches, he found out the screws are actually okay, and it was just the allen wrench rounding off. I ordered a set like he has, and a pack of spare screws just in case they are needed. Only including 2 extra screws when the tank takes 4, makes no sense to me. It couldn't have cost them much to throw in 2 more screws.

Actually I'm glad it does have the bottom fill hole because sometimes my chimney comes off when I try to top fill.
How does the chimney come off? Which part are you taking off to fill it? My friend originally thought the top part was only one piece, but there are actually 2 pieces that screw apart.
