Finally received mine. Won it almost a month ago on the mod envy show but he's been out of stock half that time. The delay gave me time to get a few inexpensive RDA to learn building on and I've certainly enjoyed dripping as I've learned. I built a 1.1 ohm coil, 28 gauge around a screwdriver shaft (cheap Harbor Freight thing so I've no clue as to actual diameter) and wicked with cotton. It's wonderful, now I understand what everyone's talking about.
However, I had an initial problem. Since this was my first tank RBA build, I was cautious and filled from the top before I screwed on the top cap. I filled just to the top of the clear portion of the tank where it screws into the top cap. Everything seemed fine. I had even test fired it with just the center chimney on but without its top cap after I manually soaked the cotton. When I pushed the drip tip onto the top cap a bunch of juice squirted out the air hole, the one in the side of the deck. Then more leaked out when I set my mod down to clean up the initial spill. After 3 or 4 good draws, with the mod rotated and tilted slightly to keep the air hole topmost, everything became fine. No leaking since, great flavor and vapor. I'm loving it.
My question, what did I do wrong. What caused the squirt out of the air hole? Should I worry that I'll get leaking if I refill from the bottom using the screw hole?
