I haven't had any issues with flooding either, but I use the same method that TheBloke uses, cutting the wick flush with the outer diameter.

black oring around the base of the deck...its really loose fitting and I have been wondering if it really needs to be there. Sounds like it isnt!!

Oh dear. Maybe it's a spare that fell in the deck or something. Might explain my JF issues... Too funny!!
Nah I think you're right that it goes there. I definitely had one left over after I dismantled, and I tried putting it just about everywhere else with no success. I just put it around the deck as you showed and it does indeed fit there loosely. I don't feel it's that necessary, as I didn't have it on before with no issues - and same with Grrr - but may as well put it where it was meant to be rather than it sitting on my desk to get lost.
Besides which, it does seem to be clearly shown in that photo.
Thanks!

If it's meant to be there I think it's a revision to the original release, if you look at both of these videos when you see them build the deck doesn't have the O ring.
Well, not unsurprisingly, with the miscreant/orphan owing removed, wicking is perfect...really too funny!! Lol! At least my gut feeling was right in this case 
It might be the width of the wick, perhaps I'm cutting my cotton too narrow.
About the o-rings - there should be only one under the airflow ring I think. So if you had a spare one it goes around the deck. (Or indeed leave it out...)

I had it in there and it was hitting TP pretty quick. Just took it out and all is very fine. If it's supposed to be ther I have no idea why!! It's night and day difference on mine at least!
Possibly a kludge for issues with flooding/bad wicking maybe?!?
When I looked at the wick after using it with the ring on, it was almost dry. If not for TP I would have been vaping cotton fumes!!
It must be something they've added, not sure why. If you look at the picture gallery on the product page the first close ups of the deck don't have the O ring however the last 3 pics, with the new deck, do have the O ring. Perhaps it's better with the new deck? Those of us with the original deck probably don't need it.

Oh OK. So I still have a mystery o-ring then! When I next dismantle I'll take a pic, maybe you guys can spot where I'm missing it from.

No mate. I think it's an orphan!! Bless it!! Probs he is putting them in the new decks and just lobbed them in with the last batch of old decks?!?
I didn't receive an O-ring with mine either. Just rebuilt it with Ti and the vape is incredible - full of flavor. I am a bit confused, though. I connected it to my ipv4 and it kept reading Dry Coil, although the coil was saturated. Moved it over to my rDNA40 and had no issues. This is the first time I've used Ti wire - any suggestions?
I checked the 510 on the IPV4 and on the Merkava - cleaned both and extended the 510 on the Merkava - still getting the Dry Coil message. But it works fine on the rDNA 40.
You did Set Resistance on the IPV4, right?
I guess it could be! I definitely remember removing it from somewhere. But maybe it was around the deck, I can't remember.
