So, this thing looked great and I have been looking at getting a tank for my mech. Got it in the mail last week. The build on this thing looks great. The only prob is I can't keep it from flooding. I use cotton for wick. I've tried more cotton, less cotton, it doesn't seem to matter. It still floods. Anyone have any ideas

Lots of cotton around the base. Works for me.
As soon as I empty the tank I'll take some pics and post'em.

I agree that you need a lot of cotton around the base. First build leaked like a sieve. I watched the French video and used very long wicks and packed the extra around the base. Have had no leaking at all with this. This could become my favorite RBA. Flavor and vape is excellent. Seems to hold about 3.5ml. Have been vaping it for a few hours now and it is working very well.

Hi ForeverDiving,
I got my AGA-T7 today and here is my first build on it:
I made it 1.2 Ohms for Sigelei 20W Regulated Mod, it seems to be working fine.
Please let me know if you see something wrong.

I'm looking at picking one up soon and would appreciate it if someone can let me know about their experiences regarding the flooding rumors and the true ML capacity

Thanks

No responses so here is my update

I've been using it a few days now using a dual coil over/under build similar to AMDTruckings first build above, but used 24 gauge which came out to about 0.4 Ohms, and using Cellucotton Rayon for wicking

No leaks to report so far, except for the time I used a non-needle plastic tipped syringe which covered up the whole of the fill port. It's fine when a needle-nosed fill bottle or syringe with Luer lock (20 gauge) is used.

As for the capacity, I measured it at around 4 ML with the syringe

Flavor and vapor production are both excellent, and the latter blows my KFL+ out of the water, though I would have preferred just a little bit more airflow for easier lung inhales.

It looks like the Aga-T7 will play a key role in my upcoming summer vacation but I do plan on picking up a Fogger V4.1 as well :)

try the cellucotton everyone is raving about - a lifetime supply is at your local Sally beauty supply - unfortunately the size of the box you have to buy seems ridiculous, but it's only $10 and change - don't go for the smaller sizes, it is a different material (regular cotton), make sure the big number on the box is 44060 (yes I know it seems like they also sell smaller sizes, but it doesn't have the miracle wicking properties of 44060) - here is a pic of what you want:

also, the coils and wicking seem to stay clean forever!

use about 3 times as dense as you would with cotton (3 times as much material)

Also Pegasus has a good tutorial on the IGO-w7 build.
