How's the airflow on it? It looks like it should have quite a bit given the bottom and side air. Not sure this would be a great mtl tank for that reason, but wonder if you can get at least a restricted DL if you want it.

It has ample airflow – too much to be considered as a MTL tank even when the AFC is in the smallest position. Wide open I find it to be a comfortable, open lung hit. Half closed (my preferred configuration) I find it to be a loosely restricted hit.
Still waiting for mine to arrive but was a little disheartened after seeing this review. I hope they have been able to address some of the issues before releasing it.

I almost ordered a second one without trying one first. I'm going to wait until I get the first one now.
First impression of this is positive. Well built, very easy to build on. Really like the top screws. The post holes are parallel with the deck base. Wicked this kinda like the Boreas because it's a bottom feeder with a bit less cotton. Enough to cover the holes. Make sure you prime this well. Top fill has lotsa space to fit your your juice dropper. Big juice holes that are adjustable which I have wide open as I do the air flow. Just a bit of restriction. Have a .38 ohm SS 316l build @ 430 degrees on my DNA device. Still getting a bead on flavor. Been vaping a lot lately so I'm not sure. No leaking and didn't have to rewick the first try. More later.

Always prudent to wait for first-hand experience before getting another, but I’ve not had any problem at all with the wobbling that was pointed out in the review. The juice flow control opens and closes with a clockwise motion, so I don’t see how the wobbling could occur unless you unscrewed the base (e.g., rotated counterclockwise).
As for the clearance between the chimney and the glass, that’s an issue with pretty much any 22mm tank. Having a single coil minimizes the impact since it’s less juice hungry than a dual, but a super thick juice will be an issue. I usually make my tank juices at 30/70 and save the 70+ VG juices for drippers or squonkers.
If I didn’t have the feeling that Geekvape will be releasing a 24mm version (I have absolutely no info that they will – just a guess based on their past products) I’d pick up a second one in a heartbeat.
I've made that mistake before. lol I'll be patient and give it a good test period before buying the farm.

This is a real good review. I will say this, one thing he didn't try is tilting the tank so the juice flow holes point more vertical than horizontal. That makes the air bubbles flow up freely. But I would agree that it might be problematic to run hot vapes (mine is just warm) or attempt to chain vape. It won't keep up IMO. If you are using lower VG juice the wicking may keep up better. That crackling sound he talked about is, I believe, the wick running dry. I was getting that at the beginning with a new wick. After it was fully saturated I wasn't experiencing that. Flavor-wise I give it a thumbs up. IMO I think the Merlin is still all around better though construction is better with the Ammit. If you're on the fence you might want to wait for another iteration. Making the bottom feeder holes a bit bigger and the space between glass chamber would help.

One more thought on this tank. What an odd design it has for juice flow. It feeds from two holes at the bottom of the deck. But those holes are right over the long horizontal juice flow slats. Right where the bubbles form. If you are using high VG juice they tend to sit there. So the cotton ends up sitting right over air. It's like it shouldn't work properly at all. What they should have done is make those slats not horizontal but tilted upward to help those bubbles flow up and out of the way.
But when you have these high volume YouTube reviewers (you know who they are) falling all over themselves on any product they review what does it matter. Do the designers care or do they care more about marketing a gimmick. Like air intake positioned next to the coils. Ok, switching off soapbox mode. [emoji83]

My quick first look.
Wismec 5mm notch coil fits in perfectly. Used rayon, same combo used in my Merlin and Merlin Mini.
Flavor seems good, but I'm not the best judge, I'll let others chime in if the side air actually adds flavor or not, seems comparable to my Merlins.
JFC. On my black version, clockwise closes the holes, but on mine in the full clockwise position, part of the channel is open, so to fully close it for filling the tank has to be turned counter clockwise. I have NO wobble as was seen in the video review above.
As far as tight tolerance between the chimney cap and glass tank, a lot of the new RTA's seem about the same. I don't try watching bubbles rise or not. It either feeds the juice you like, or it doesn't keep up. For those NOT using temp control it's easier to see if you get any DRY HITS, especially those how use high watts, or chain Vape. I do neither, as a TC mostly user, one does not get dry hits, just less vapor production, so I'll have to keep my eye on it, as I use mostly 75-80% VG, so that should be a good test.
Fit and finish seems good, very clean out of the box, threads are all smooth. The deck does NOT come apart from the base. If you take out both bottom screws, the positive post can be removed, but that does not make cleaning the base/deck any easier. It's not a huge negative, but the Merlin Mini's deck can unscrew, so it's a bit easier to fully clean. This one will get soap and water washes, and dried with a
q-tip.
And agree with reviewer, when you first get it, HARD to unscrew glass tank section, but I see this a lot with my other new RTA's! Not sure why these companies continue to over tighten all the parts, be careful NOT to break the glass!
I won't know about leaking until I use it for an extended time period, but dry so far.
Haven't heard crackling, but I'm just now breaking in the new wick.
Other then holding more juice then a Merlin Mini, I don't see much difference. Now if the side air holes actually increase FLAVOR, then it would be as good if not better, if not, it seems they would be about equal. This seems more for the direct lung vapors.

I couldn't get it unscrewed. Even put the hair dryer to it. The tank did have a bit of machine oil in it so I soaked it in warm soapy water and then the hair dryer evaporated the moisture inside. Btw I am getting less vapor production semi frequently on temp control but I don't use anything less than 70% VG. If I wait for the bubbles to clear then I can get a full vape. Otherwise I get maybe two seconds of inhale before the I hit air and little vapor production.

Finally got my Ammit today. Washed, rinsed, installed a .24 Ohm, 3.5 mm, 5 wrap SS316L fused clapton build (2x26/32) which fit nicely. Wicked with Native Wicks Platinum (just trying it out), and plonked it on my iPV5 set to Joules mode, 60 joules, 439 F, TCR 107. So far, it's a nice vape.
I had none if the tank disassembly problems previously reported. Was able to tear down with no tools at all. I'm running a 70/320 juice, and having no wicking issues.
Likely one of the easiest tanks I've ever wicked.

With build I currently have, no. And, I'm gonna just go with no... there is quite a lot of air coming into the chamber and no way to restrict the chamber. For that, you're gonna wanna stick with the Merlin, Merlin Mini, Siren, Kayfun, Cthulhu MTL.

Thanks for replying. I just wonder if there is anything I can do to modify it from the inside. With all those air holes it would have to be done from the inside. I might get one just to mess around with it and see what can be done. It's a nice looking tank.
For those interested some of the reviews are in at the site where I got my tank....

Day 2, tank 4, same build and mod. I'm having no issues with wicking. Granted, I'm using a TC build and 70/30, but it's keeping up fine. Also, I'm seeing no seepage, but I did have a bit of condensation on the top of the mod. So far, the only niggle I can find is the lack of knurling on the top cap... makes it a bit slippery when removing/replacing the top cap/filling.
