Is there a single coil RTA that is just as leak proof as the Goblin?

Thanks for that Zavri. Yep the top cap and the pin are both tight. As the juice is coming out of the air intake holes next to the airflow ring, it must be going down the airhole under the coil... I'm new to RBAs but searched a few forums / you tube etc and I'm pretty sure I've got the wicking right...

Make sure there is an o ring at the top of the chimney stem. It should be right below the threads that go into the top cap. Also make sure both clear gaskets for the glass tube are in place.
 
Thanks Roxynoodle. Yep, all the gaskets are in place. I will try replacing the one on the top of the chimney as I still have a spare I think.

The lemo can flood if your wicking isn't thick enough. Are you using the fill screw or the plug? Could be leaking from there.

Other than the leaking, does it perform as it should? Just to rule things out, I would replace all gaskets. It's been a while, but I think I remember my lemo came with a full set of replacement seals.
 
One day I left one of those gaskets out by accident, and it still didn't leak :laugh: I didn't know until I saw it sitting on the counter.

I left the fill plug out one day lol. While doing a couple of primer puffs, I noticed juice running all down my vamo. :facepalm: I felt like such an idiot. haha

Don't feel bad; I have (more than once!) left the chimney top off, when reassembling a kayfun -- you can tell right away when you're filling and the juice is just running out into your hand! :facepalm:
