Can you tell me from where the leakage comes so I can help you Repent? If its from the cap, I have leave room inside the cap for an o-ring there in case that someone has leakage.

Hi Imeo;

The leaking is coming out of the connector. I made sure the wicks were well seated in the slots as per your post. I thought maybe I overfilled it, being as I filled it to halfway on the cone tube. I next filled it to just the top of the cone tube and got some leaking also out of the connector end. The seals are all in place.

I'll look to make sure the o-ring between the top cap and the mouthpiece is correct. As I remember the cone tube was not exactly through the center of the hole in the top cap, it was off a little to one side. I'll make sure that is not somehow affecting the seal in that area.

Once I clear the leak it vapes like a crazy person. I blame myself not the device.

This is a little OT, but if anyone has a UFS (in great shape) they will part with I'll pay the going price from COV for it and upgrades to it. You'll have 100% return on your investment.

The cone tube doesnt always sit straight because of the plastic threads. You just move it to the right place if you see something like this, its not something unusual and of course not something to worry about Repent.

Just push the wick inside slots well and screw plastics well. There is no other reason for leackage or overflooding:)

Hi Imeo;

Repent

My suggestion is to put the Iatty onto your PV and then unscrew it a tad until it's a little loose but makes contact with the positive atomizer connection on your PV. Let me know if this improves or stops the leaks.

Like Imeo said Repent....make sure the plastics are screwed tight. I thought my top plastic piece was on tight, but it actually was stripped...stopping the plastic from screwing as tight as it should. Now that piece will slide up and down where it screws in and the threads on it are useless. Make sure it screws in all the way and does not push in half way or so before screwing. Not saying this is your problem but rather just a suggestion. Hopefully its not as I have been Iatty'less since I received it because of this problem and still no contact back from Bruce. Anyone have any suggestions on a better way to get ahold of him? It has been almost 2 weeks, and no response.

Got all my wire today and built a killer atty. One question I, why does it vape so smooth right handed and gurgles like its flooded left handed? I find this a bit odd.

Perhaps you hold it more more horizontally in your right hand. If it's slightly flooded and it's more vertical, gravity takes the juice and covers the holes in the ceramic causing gurgles.

That makes sense, juice is always on that side whether I'm vaping or its set down. I been vaping left handed for a while and now that's smooth and right handed gurgles. What up??? lol Nothing like being an idiot.

Is your cone to loose? The only time I get gurgle is when its flooded, or the CT has juice in it.
The air holes on the control tank change position. Position them to the top and it should gurgle less. Or you could empty it out.

That is interesting. I didn't know you could put the catch tank on upside down, I always assumed the holes went on top. I'm kinda surprised I didn't try to put it on the wrong way just to see if it fit by now, lol.

Don't be silly.

If GGTS and iAtty/AVS/UFS, all have the Collector tank in common, are held in a horizontal position the CT holes are high or low.

The same is true for the button. Spin the GGTS while holding it horizontal and the button and the control Ring holes are either high or low/ up or down in position to the horizontal plane.

Which in relation to the subject might explain the gurgle experienced while using left or right handed to operate it, and only if there is liquid in the collector tank. Since the iAtty is gurgling Right handed but not let handed the explanation is likely to be the collector tank has liquid in it, and the holes are rotated so that the liquid gurgles. Either rotate it until the gurgle stops or empty the tank out.

Iatty.... Very IMPRESSIVE!!!!!! I was not able to try my Iatty since I got it because I was moving to other place. I finally tried Iatty just a few hours ago and I'm totally impressed. Making resistance was not that hard since I was following Imeo's instruction step by step. First, I made 1.2 ohm resistance which was not what I wanted. But I put it on my GGTS anyway and tried it.... I just say... Wow... Huge clouds of vapor. I've never seen this amount of vapor and was really surprised. But 1.2 ohm on 3.7 V vaping was too tough for me. So I made another resistance. It came out to be 1.5 ohm which was what Imeo suggested :laugh: I'm vaping it right now and I'm really amazed by the amount of vapor it produces. Some people say flavor is somewhat muted but I'm totally satisfied with flavor, too. Imeo, you've done another excellent job again. Thank you so much for providing me with another vaping experience!!!!!:):):)

p.s. Imeo, are you planning to provide extra o-rings for Iatty just like other products in the future? I'd like to get some extras.
