So I was trying to build my rba, and for some reason the post keeps swiveling on me. Does anyone have any tips on how to stop this prom happening? it keeps screwing with my coils....
Take your allen wrench and put it through the hole in the base by the threads (where the threads would screw into your mod) then tighten using your hand.

While I am not happy with how Innokin handled the good people here on ecf I have to say that the Axiom is well worth the 4 dollars as long as you can rebuild an rba. I had leaking issues with the stock coil.I have kept it in my rotation and it pairs up well with my Pico. Great stealthy setup. I have had zero issues with it since pitching the stock coil and the flavor is excellent. I have never run it with dual coils as the single is perfect for me. It was actually a pleasant surprise. I think you will be happy with it. Others have had problems with dry hits but I can chain vape mine with the single coil. Definitely not a good atty if you prefer high wattages. I am running ss316l .64 ohms at around 21 watts. I also frequently run it in temp control at 400degrees.

I added a drip tip because the included one is way too short. Just slide your favorite tip into the included one.
Mine came with a little nubby tip that extends the chuff cap by about 4mm. At least I think that's what this thing is for, I haven't seen it mentioned in any of the reviews I've looked at. It fits, and it doesn't look to be a replacement for anything else in or on the tank -- I thought at first that maybe it was a spare insulator for the 510 pin or something but it's way too big for that:

My stock coil had its wicks burnt within a day of using it within the recommended wattage range. The RBA seems to be holding flavor well with the single-coil build I have in it. I'll open it up and have a look probably some time today. Mildly disappointing that in 2017 you still can't access the coil without draining the tank.

To stop the leaking on the stock coils just mess about with the bottom part to the coil, the bit that plugs in to the white seal, mine was leaking badly & there was two wire's sticking out of the bottom pushing the white seal away so I pulled the metal plug out to find two more wires, the wires belong to the coils same as the ones sticking out. Two are in between the tank & white seal & two between the white seal & metal plug which I had to cut some off to stop them from pushing the white seal away from the tank it's self. Fingers crossed it's sorted the leaking

My re wicked coil did not work.
Did I not work well, or did it not work at all? I've just rebuilt my stock coil head and while it vapes like crap (I wasn't expecting much, I put in a real rough and dirty build, more as proof-of-concept than anything else), it does still vape. With a little practice and a lot of skill, I'm sure someone else could get these things running as well as or better than they come from the factory.

I won't be using this one again though after I pull it back out; I chewed up the threads a bit getting it apart and I don't want to thread it on and off the base any more than I have to.

I put a dual-coil build in the RBA. Still not as airy as the stock coil, but moreso than with the single-coil adapter blocking off half the airflow. I've got a pair of 28ga 8-wraps on a 2.5mm ID, reading at about .7Ω and running at 24W.

It took me several tries because -- on mine, at least -- the screw-hole on the negative post is drilled down past the bottom of the wire-hole, so I have to be careful not to wrench the screw down too tight or it will cut off the leads like a scissors. On the positive post, the wire-hole is smooth on the bottom and so the screw just smashes the wire flat against the bottom surface. I wonder if they're all like this, or only mine.

I think you all jinxed me. I have 4 axioms, use them in pairs (when cleaning two of them the other two get used). I got them because of the price and replacement coils are inexpensive. Also plan on learning to build coils this summer, so they are a win-win-win for me. I really like them, get good flavor and enough clouds to satisfy me. I run 14w with a drip tip for more tootie-style at work, 24w with no tip for more clouds when I want.

Went through the original coils and over 20 replacements without a leak. Until yesterday. I read this thread just the day before, hence you all jinxing me :). I did flip the tank over, unscrewed the base, unscrewed the coil, wiped the base out good and re-screwed the coil back in, no problems since. I do have the air vent issue on one of them, the other three I can adjust easily on the mod. I really like them, use them probably 90% of the time, use my Cleito 120 the other 10% for when I really want to play with clouds.

I just got the Axiom and am having trouble wicking it. The wick is either too short or gets caught under the chimney/cover that you screw on. Any tips are greatly appreciated!
Are you wetting the cotton first? What's the diameter of your coil. I usually have 2mm coils and if cut at the correct length, will fitt perfectly in the juice well. If you're running with larger coils then you could take the bottom portion of what you think is extra and push it back into the deck and/or towards the posts. Obviously don't cover up your air inlet but there's quite a bit of space in there to stash extra wick.

As long as your tank is no more than 3/4 full you can turn the Axiom Upside down and all of the juice will drain into the metal top section of the tank. At that point just unscrew and tinker.
