4/1,5 is not giving seal on mouthpiece Zor. You need the 4/2 as you said and 3/1,8 around ceramic

Iatty is leaking for some people because they dont do it in the right way as Zor and UK said. Maybe they put o-rings in the wrong way or the dont tight the plastics. I made so many videos about it, I cant do anything else

I think i am having the same problem here

I have 3 o-rings..2 fat ones and one thinner maybe bigger one. The two fatter ones came on the ceramic post from COV. The one thinner one I assumed went on the mouthpiece. But it didnt really seem to have a nice fit there.

The problem is that i can not for the life of me get the ceramic post (with any two) o-rings inside the Delrin piece. It seems absolutely impossible to me. I'm afraid if i force it that i will break the O-ring. Which, by the way...maybe it would be a good idea to give people extra o-rings.

Ok so:

1. Am i supposed to be using the same two o-rings on the post like it says in all the videos? Or is there now a change of heart about that.

2. How in the world am i supposed to get the post with the o-rings in the delrin.

3. I've attached a pic of the o-rings i received.. are those right?

Many thanks for your help.

Just a question for those that have received their iatty, are all the cuts on the delrin pieces clean cut?

They are cut exactly at the right size but if you see that the cuts have small plastic inside, just remove them hillock. Its not nessesary but its not good looking.

Imeo;

or maybe, as was my case, they received the iAtty from COV with the o-rings installed to the ceramic incorrectly, leaving the incorrect o-ring loose, to be installed by the user to the mouthpiece which is incorrect. Maybe contact COV and either have them install the smaller o-ring onto the ceramic fist followed by one of the larger ones, leaving a larger one for the mouthpiece or just put the o-rings into the bag and don't install. Having them already installed messed me up the first time.

Maybe Bruce made a mistake. I dont really know, I say maybe. He is new to this as we all are. So guys please keep this in mind

In the little hole on the bottom cap, the one used to remove the cap, there was a piece of plastic in there, almost flush. Just used a paperclip to pick it out. Other pieces of Delrin didn't show any leftovers from the machining process.

It is not plastic, its the material I use to shine the metal. This material sometimes when it gets dry becomes hard as rock and cant be removed easily with the supersounds when its on a hole Repent.:)

Next day update report:

I left iAtty attached to my Provari overnight on my nightstand. Got up this morning and checked it out. COMPLETELY DRY in the connector of Provari, no leakage whatsoever. For me, I'm not going to drip into the cone tube to prime the coil/wick after cleaning or replacing the coil. I also am leaving the cone closed, as it seems the particular juices I use are wicking fine. Just make sure, as I've already posted about, that if the o-rings are already installed to the ceramic, take them off and put the correct ones on in the correct order. That was the partial reason for my first leaking episode, along with the priming drops and opening the cone too much. All of my 5 priming drops went down the tube. If you watch the videos, most of the priming drops go down the outside of the cone tube. I made sure all of the 5 drops went down the tube so too much liquid in the tube to begin with.

Also, I will admit to the fact that a couple of times while trying to clear the gurgling from the cone tube after adding the priming drops, I blew into iAtty from the mouthpiece out of habit, then after the second time I REMEMBERED Imeo said to blow from the bottom connector so the juice goes out the mouthpiece.

We are all used to blowing excess juice out from the mouthpiece through the bottom connector to clear the gurgling. Due to the design of iAtty, this only exacerbates the problem. I would suggest that when blowing juice out from the bottom connector out of the mouthpiece that you remove the mouthpiece first, then blow from the connector end out through the top. By removing the mouthpiece, you give the extra juice a place to go, that is, the juice will go out onto the o-ring area and can then easily be wiped out with a tissue or paper towel. Leaving the mouthpiece in, seems that the juice can run back down into the cone tube and you'll never really clear the juice out.

These are just my experiences and observations. Take them or leave them.

I can clearly see where my failures happened so I wanted to post about them so others could hopefully learn from my mistakes and experiences thus far.

If you do that all the liquid will come out of the Iatty Repent. As for the dripping, I dont know why you have leackage because I can drip 15 drops and I dont have leackage. But maybe its because I vape on the GGTS witch has the collector tank so the liquid goes there and then I vape it again from there without my knowledge. But to say the truth, everytime I open the CT is empty. So I think your problems come only from the bad plastic upper piece.

I have the exact same issue. I ended up using both o-rings, but only one inserted into the plastic peice, and the 1st o-ring fitting snug on top of that. Seems to be holding the ceramic OK, but would rather have it fit properly.

I neglected to mention that this thing rocks in my current configuration. Great job! Will even be greater when my adapters come so that I can use it on my GGTS! :)

Hi geoff.
Did you not get a smaller o ring?
You should have one fat one and one smaller o ring for the ceramic and the one on the far left is for the mouth piece.

HI UK,

The two on the left are exactly the same. I put one of them on the ceramic post along with the one on the right. And then i put the other one from the left group on the mouthpiece. I was able to get the ceramic in the delrin, but it's pretty loose.

Finally got a coil on there and just gave it a vape and...............Juice in my mouth,,,,yuck.

I sooo want this to work.

The smaller of my o rings split after getting it on. I only have one o ring on now and it seems fine.

This is why they need to ship more than just one o-ring. That goes for the whole GG Line. These systems all rely on o-rings... the fact that no extra's are included is really poor planning. If i'm not mistaken, o-rings are cheap as dirt, so there's really no excuse for not including many extras for each unit. Imeo....can you please, from now on, be more generous with the o-rings that come with your units.
