It's only chamfered just enough on the bottom edge to make it look like it isn't quite screwed down all the way if you look VERY closely, and the chamfer is more on the bottom of the base. The sides of the base are straight.

On a VTC Mini. It feels better than my Zeus, but just barely.
I have a silicone case on my VTC Mini so I don't feel it at all and you can't see the overhang when the case is on.
That's not bad. I might order one of those to try some day (preferably when the price comes down or I see a great sale).
I got mine at eciggity. it was $27.99 I believe and if you use your google fu there's a coupon code that brings it down to $24.99.
If you like 22mm RTAs that don't leak, eightvape.com has the Geekvape Ammit on sale for $9.99 and if you use the code Geekvape20 it brings it down to $7.96.
The code is good for 20% off all Geekvape products on their site.
I'm deeply in love with el pepinazo (the large cucumber) as one spanish speaker reviewer dubbed it. I'm afraid too much airflow. Can it be turned down? It's no good in some attys.I will bid you all adieu in this thread. The Zeus has gone back in it's box and was replaced by the JuggerKnot.
It is a bit restrictive to start with and will turn down much tighter. No MTL tightness as the chamber and deck air slots are quite wide.
I put a single 4mm 24ga parallel Ti coil in it last night, replacing the dual fused claptons and it is quite serviceable in single coil mode. The single coil has to be large and quite high off the deck so the air flow hits the bottom half of the coil.
I'll futz around with the single coil for a little bit and probably end up putting a pair of 22ga Ni80 simple coils back in.
Keep us posted on your single coil, I’m not opposed to dual coils but if it can work well on single coil (so much easier on single battery mods)
I should mention that @DeloresRose alerted me to the $9.99 Ammit sale; so credit where credit is due.
I only had the the discount code.
Love ya Delores!!
Sorry the single coil got pulled earlier tonight and a simple pair of 3mm 7 wrap 22ga Ni80's were installed. I run the same build in a Supreme V2 and it works quite nicely at 90W.Keep us posted on your single coil, I’m not opposed to dual coils but if it can work well on single coil (so much easier on single battery mods)
The single worked fine, flavor wasn't too bad but not as good as the duals. I don't know what you'd put in there for your power level, I think it should have a 4mm ID or larger coil when used in single mode.
Another little quirk of the Juggerknot is that you shouldn't take the deck out when it's over 1/4 full of juice. They provide no way to keep the tank firmly attached to the top section other than a single o-ring. If you are careful, you can hold the tank in place and remove the base.
There are some bottom airflow, leak resistant attys. The Manta MTL, Blitzen, Serpent SMM are good examples. I like some bottom airflow when I can, but I prefer on the coil airflow. I'm still undecided about the Intake, I prefer the side airflow of the OBS or Zeus single.
Evan with a bit of overnight weeping when not in use, It's still my go to rta for smooth mouth fill flavour, forever out the box.
If I was going to put up with seeping then I'd get my four augvape merlin rta's out of storage. It was one of the best tanks I've had for flavor but all four seeped. I've had other bottom airflow rta's that have been fine but I've had my fair share of problems too.
I can relate to that. The OG Merlin RTA was such a fine single coil RTA. I loved mine but eventually it started to seep and even when it started, I used to use it and just wipe it all the time but as time went on, it has gotten worse. I loved the Merlin so much that I now have the Merlin Mini and the new (not really) Merlin MTL. I really wished the deck was designed differently so that it didn't seep. I guess lesson learnt for Augvape as I don't seem to be having seeping issues with my Merlin Mini or Merlin MTL.
That's why no matter what other things people suggest are leak free I'm sold on top flow air.
I understand how top flow air would be hard to get leaking even if flooded. I also understand holes below the liquid/coil are able to leak.
I haven't had much of a problem with my later Subtank revisions but if I didn't rinse and dry every recoil the condensation could build up enough to find its way out of the base eventually.
For top air to leak it has to be a blown seal, bad cap or really bad wicking job.
I love top airflow designs which direct the air to beneath the coil. I've tried a few top airflow designed leak proof RTA's and what I have noticed was that when the airflow was directed to beneath the coil as opposed to the sides, flavor was much better (at least to me). That is why RTAs like the Zeus Dual and now the Augvape inTake RTA are amongst my favourite RTA's to use. I absolutely love these RTA's performance and it's convenient to use. You don't have to experience ejuice on your hands when you're working or driving. It really is 'that much better' in my opinion.
My only question is the number of seals in the Zeus and especially the Themis with its removable base.
The build before last (2nd) I noticed the seal around the bottom of the glass looked odd. The last build I found I had tightened it too much and it was starting to buckle.
Reading a few pages back, here's an ebay site that sells bubble tanks for the single coil

Oops... I built my Zeus this time with the coil too short... Flavor is OK but little vapor. What say you, out with the coil? It's not touching the base, but barely. Wicking seems ok, coil is 0.7 ohms.
