Yeah, I used to always use 3mm and larger for years. Since that other member mentioned it, I had to try smaller and it just creates so much more flavor. A lot of members have the same experience.
I normally use 2.5 mm coils but do use 3 mm in my Zeus. I have done this mainly so my wick fills the juice holes but like Hit I will try a 2.5 on my next build.
P.S. While I do like DTL I keep the airflow on my Zeus almost fully closed for flavor.

IMO,
Coil diameter, no. of wraps, wire ga, watts, temperature, wicking method are all factors that contribute to vaping flavor. It seems to be a complicate matter but it is not.
Indeed, all those factors can be simplified into a single factor that is the rate ejuice is being vaporized.
To me, it doesn't matter whether one uses 4mm coil or 2mm coil, they always produce the same quality of flavor as long as you know how to tweak other factors.
The advantage of using bigger coil is "bigger amount of cotton" and thus easier to get optimal wicking... just trim and get a good size tail, that it is. But the reverse is a pain in the assss particular in tanks with big juice holes, like Zeus.

I can't use coils larger than 2.5mm. It just can't produce the same flavor of a smaller coil for me.
I've been playing with RDA's for squonking and I am having the same issue. Smaller is better.

For those looking for information on a bubble glass for the Zeus Single coil 25mm RTA, I have it.
I could only find them on Ebay and the quantity is limited.
The description doesn't include what the capacity would be.
I managed to get 6ml in my tank this morning! I think 5.5ml is more realistic for normal use. I used a syringe so I could measure and just keep pushing it in and rotating the tank to remove all air bubbles.

That foam holder looks just like the packaging FT started using.
Not that I think ebay sellers don't buy from FT or Ali....
Not a bad price tho.....
Edit: just noticed the seller is in China

Yes, Slow boated its way here.. but not too bad.. Ordered 21 May, at the door on 1 June.
5.5mls is enough to make it liveable. I was not taking mine seriously because that 3ml tank was always EMPTY ;(For those looking for information on a bubble glass for the Zeus Single coil 25mm RTA, I have it.

Fits snug and all? No leaky?
Somebody in this thread mentioned that the Ehpro Bachelor X's bubble glass is compatible with the Zeus, and it looks similar to the one off eBay.

I wonder if it is made for the Geekvape Blitzen? It is a bubble tank. I have a couple of new Blitzens that I bought and have not unpacked. I might try to see if they fit it.Wonder which tank this is really made for.

It seems like I'm the only one using the TPD edition (2ml) here? The deck is a little bit different than the standard ones. I realised this on youtube where almost all videos are using the 4ml ones.
Btw, still a great RTA. Although, after reading a good amount of tips in this thread, I can never get the logo to center. Any newer tips? I could get it to center without the glass, but once I put the glass back together, it wouldn't center.

Do you mind elaborating on this? I still can't get it to center.
When you say "insert deck if not centered" do yo mean screw it fully? And when you say "turn the deck 360 degrees to the opposite side" do you mean unscrew first and turn? and when you turn is it turn the deck only without attaching it to the base?
Pictures/videos would be really great coz one of my Zues is "out of service" until I can figure out how to fix this. Help people!
I can’t do vids so I’ll try my best to explain. I manually with my fingers center the Zeus logo on the tank. Fully screw on the deck then you can see if the Zeus is still centered, if not, unscrew the deck,remove then rotate the deck 360 degrees & screw on again. It should be centered. Hope this helps. Let me know if you’re successful.
I don't know how anyone can use a 2ml version of anything. My Zeus is the 4ml version and doesn't get much use these days because the juice consumption vs performance/flavor ratio is so low.
As far as the logo, depending on how your base was pressed together during manufacture, the logo might never be centered. The one I have has either the right 1/3rd of his face covered buy the support post or the left 1/3 when rotating the deck 180 degrees.
My OBS Engine nano suffered the same problem, it all depends on where the threads start when they press the base together.
Any of you Zeus owners also own a Recurve RDA? I'm thinking of picking up the Recurve as a flavor tester. By looks alone I'm thinking the Recurve might give a similar vape experience. Thoughts, suggestions???
I got some of the bubble tanks for my Zeus's from Ebay. Came in packs of five. Going to assemble one today. I like the Zeus and I am a flavor chaser. I am not sure if it is as good as my usual fav, the Aromamizer, flavor wise, but I love that it never leaks. I do not usually lay my mods/tanks on their sides but I am sick of the leaking and this guy just does not. I think I might have finally given in to sacrificing flavor for convenience.
