I put another crappy youtube video up called "Squape Reloaded Clone from AngelCigs (AC-R) PSA: DO NOT buy THIS PIECE OF JUNK" in case anyone wants to be shown exactly why this is a non-functioning atomizer in video form. 3 minutes long, and shows the insane leaking from the windows as well as explains how this causes it to leak from the bottom as well.

That leak can be fixed. The o rings that hold the plastic tank need to be installed. There are two thin, clear o rings. They fit into little grooves inside the metal tank. One above, and one below the windows. They will appear to be too big, but they really do fit. They aren't fun to get in, but it is possible. Once they are in place, push the plastic tank back into place.

If that's the only problem, you're lucky :laugh: Most of them have major issues with the 510 pin and the deck conducting electricity.

Why the hell did they glue it in when they provide you with the o-rings? I get that it's a DIY tank, but that's just ridiculous.

And yes, the deck does conduct. Whatever they are using, it sure isn't an enamel coating. however, I bypassed that by using a 2.4-2.5mm coil isntead of a 3.0

Just checked; the tank was already held in by o-rings, so no, there is no fix

Good to know,i was planning on getting one of these,but guess i'll save that money.I bought a cheap evod knockoff shortly after i started vaping,and it did the same thing,leaked from every little window section,so definitely don't want to deal with that again.

Not only the window section, but the lack of an airtight seal causes an entire tank to drain through the afc if it is not a VERY high VG.

Hmm, o rings are in AND they glued in the plastic tank? This one is worse than my Ivogo that masquerades as Satan!

I was mistaken about the glue. I can't remember if fasttech has the glued one, or AC used to and changed it. either way, these orings are crap. I didn't notice first because I used a 90 VG, but that still leaked due to air pressure. I threw in a 60/40, and the entire tank was all over my mod in a matter of 5 minutes. Thought I screwed up, so I rewicked and went to fill tank again, and before I screwed the base on it was already coming out of the windows, which explained the leaking from the afc as well.

My Ivogo AC-R had the same issues.. Leaking windows because the O-Rings weren't installed as well as the conductivity issues. Installing the Orings fixed the issue but what a pain in the ... and if that had been the only issue I would have been happy. Selling that tank is a danger to anyone not in the know and it could end up hurting someone. I ended up giving the thing away with a disclaimer...
