What size o-ring do I need to stop or at least slow down leaking from the underside of my reomizer?

I BELIEVE they are 10mm ID x 1mm thickness. Rob also sells a 1.5mm thickness one. If measured OD should be 12mm for a 1mm thick one.
Is it leaking up and over the top of the well? If so, you can go to Harbor Freight, if one is near you, and pick up a box of S.A.E. O-rings of different sizes. There is a size in there that will fit around the milled portion of the RM2(7/16 X 5/8 X 3/32). The other size that fits around the 510 connection is in there also.
They also have the MM sizes.
You will want the Nitrile rings.

If you have a spare bottle cap o-ring, it will seal off the catch cup (AND cover the exposed milled portion of the RM2).
10mm ID x 1mm thick & 10mm ID x 1.5mm thick

In most cases the juice is not coming from the connection its leaking out of the atomizer air intake . People always say its not but most of the time it is even if you cant see it .
For those that are skeptical slide a o ring just under the air intake vape for a couple hours if you see juice on the o ring you no were the juice is coming from

Thanks for the responses. I ended up going to my local lowes, and picked up a small box with about 10 o rings in it, it is labeled as No 41 o rings. Im not sure if they are exactly correct, but no leaking since I put it in. Before if I tilted the Reo in any direction, juice would run from under the the atomizer out and down the sides. That has only been happening for about a week so I don't know what has changed.
Well, the temperature for one. When it gets warmer juice gets thinner, meaning that you need to squonk way less forcefully than you did even a few weeks ago. Even that lovely thick 100% vg gets thinner and wants to run out of the hole more easily. Maybe that's the culprit?
Yes the air hole does provide a nice mess do me sometimes, but mine also does leak up from under my RM2. I had a oring from an old tatty that worked but it has wore out and I need to find another.
