Week 3, I started to have leaking where the base meet the glass, the spot with the odd o-ring. I tried re-seating the o-ring and switching it, but every time I tried to get the chimney snug............. the o-ring, for better lack of terms would "squish" out the sides......... and leak.
I took the o-ring out as an experiment, refilled the tank, opened the juice control holes- I left for my evening walk 45 minutes ago. Came home, no leaking------------- odd right?

Well, I finally received my replacement deck for my stripped screw issue, it only took 3+weeks thanks to the USPS losing the first one.
The Boreas does not leak, and I read the thread. The Boreas just likes to spew out an occasional drop of hot lava from the coil flooding. I am not saying that the Boreas is not a good tank, just that I like the Griffin 25 much better. On the Boreas, without a separate Juice Flow like other RTAs, it is difficult to vape the excess juice out of a flooded coil by closing the juice flow and opening the airflow.
Great so did adjusting it out fix your issue? The adjustable 510 is so that you can use it on different mods especially mech mods that are direct to battery.
Guys, how many days your wick is lasting? In average..

I always change wick when I change flavor- I typically mix 30ml batches, so I might change my wick once or twice a week. I don't always have my Griffin on my mod, I play switcheroo with my RDAs and RTAs
In the couple of days since my replacement deck arrived, I have had zero leaking issues from above the AFC ring. The top is also less wobbly. I get a lot of condensation under the atty, but I can deal with that. So glad I contacted Geekvape about my stripped hex screw and leaking issue.
I'm not sure, to be honest. I rewick maybe every 7-10 days, even though it doesn't need it.
Really depends on what you're cooking on it. I've been running DIY unflavored for a while, so wicks last a long time. With a store bought liquid, I'd probably be rewicking every 4-5 days.
Decided to twist up some 26ga nichrome, and I'm glad I did - 0.2 ohm build @ 65w is running beautifully. Unflavored 75% VG is excellent on this build, I basically see no reason to add any flavor.
Oh, and clouds, bro. Clouds.
BOOM!
i find putting any atty in the freezer for about 2 to 5 minutes makes it a lot easier to unscrew stuck connections. (my hands have 0 grip from an old job)I finally got my Griffin, but out of the box I am unable to open the topfill. The piece that the driptip connects with will not unscrew from the RB lid/stem. Any ideas? Thanks <3 (sorry for lurking so much
interesting- it makes sense, I bet the cold causes the metal to contract making the threading easier to move. COOL TIP!!
I still love my Griff; Lots of lovely flavour

i have been doing that for about 6 months. it works great. longest i ever left an atty in the freezer is about 15 minutes.

me too, it is my all day tank.
I was going to suggest that, but I was sidetracked by work.A set of these work great too, very handy to have around.

true,, mine are in the mail. i also found that if i remember to put just a drop of ejuice on the threads as i am putting them together that i wont have to worry about a tool or a freezerA set of these work great too, very handy to have around.
its the remembering part that gets me sometimes. 
Why do some Griffin 22m have the Griffin signature on the them and some don't? I bought mine and checked that it was authentic and it was but i see reviews online with some of the tanks have griffin written on the chimney but mine doesn't why are some different?
From what I remember it was changed a little after the first batches were out. Just a design change.
my tank broke. anyone knows what other tanks are similar to the original griffin?
