I didn't realize that you could also do a single coil build. Maybe I will order one to try.

Wish they would release a bubble glass for the original zeus.
That is a great looking tank, but I'm not really a fan of the swirly color thing that is popular these days.About the only high quality acrylic tank that I've found that is the one that Sick Vapor makes. Mine is really thick and almost translucent. It's got great color swirls but you can still see the juice level.
Loving this tank, i have started using the other 810 that it comes with as well as the sleeve one. They both work great and i am enjoying alternating between them. Maybe i just need an Ultem 810 to really have a good selection.
Well i finally got my premade coils from AVS in. Put in a SS fused clapton 28 GA x2/ wrapped with 40 GA, coming in at 0.42 ohms. I am running it in TC on a DNA device. This gives an incredibly rich dense vape, just took my Zeus experience way up a notch.
I’m not 100% sure what I did wrong but I had my mod with the Zeus on it that I recoiled last night in a desk drawer and most of the tank leaked out the air hole. I’m guessing that I didn’t get the cotton tucked back enough and must have gotten some under the threads. I just opened it up and pushed the cotton under the deck. I’ve got it laying sideways to see if it’s going to leak again.
I took out the build I put in the night before last night and started over. There was a tiny bit of cotton under the threads but I didn't think it was enough to cause an issue. So far its fine with the new build so I evidently did something wrong. I went to geekvape's site to see a breakdown on the tank and still don't know for sure how the liquid was getting out the air holes but it was bad and happened almost instantly when I put the tank on it's side.
Not seen just the rubber but you can get the top cap and rubber here.

Had a long 6 month job, so thankfully for my wallet, I have not kept up on any new single coil RTA’s. I own far too many tanks, but since I HATE leaking, I’ve been relatively happy with the OBS Nano. Doesn’t seem to have the best flavor, but that could be my tongue or coil placement, wicking etc. But even if it’s not the best flavor RTA, I still choose it over my other bottom air leakers.
So now that I’m late to the Zeus, only found out about it, from seeing reviews on the Zeus DUAL coil version, I went back to find the SINGLE coil version, which I prefer.
And while I’ve watched the reviews, I somehow doubt this will be any different then the OBS Nano, as the tanks look almost identical, other then the tall airflow metal channels holes. The bayonet top fill cap looks like a nice improvement!
Regardless, since I read a rumor the OBS Nano is no longer in production, I ordered this Zeus.
From the video reviews and photos, it seems some of the air might travel over the top of the coil, and less underneath. Wondering if anyone has thought of a good way to block a few of the rows of holes in the top of the metal tower, which would direct more air to the bottom hole, and perhaps gain a flavor boost?

I actually thought about the possibility of that when I first got mine. I thought maybe someone with some soldering skill could make it work but to be honest I'm pleased with mine as it is. For my style of vaping it performs well and the flavor is passable.
I recently picked up my second Zeus. The first one was/is perfect. No issues at all. I love it. The second one has been a bit of a challenge. It seems that the innards are really tight. When I take the base off it sounds like it's rubbing against the glass. Trying to get it back in so it "clicks" into the slots has been a PITA. It vapes fine but taking the base off and putting it back hasn't been fun.
Just curious, are both the same finish/color. The reason I ask is I have two of the siren v1's and the stainless one was perfect and I still use it every day. The black one is a pita and I put it into storage. I only bought it for a back up so I'm not too upset.
I have a gunmetal and a blue. The gunmetal is perfect, the blue one is the PITA.
