Depends on why it's leaking. I've had a couple of the "drop here and there" leaks and one yesterday where it was just pouring out the bottom . . . all were user error, just simple mistakes on my part and some of them weren't obvious at the time. When everything is assembled right it doesn't leak. If you do get leaking, there's no need to run away, just take the time to go through your setup to find the cause and you'll be fine. Like anything else, it takes a little practice and hands-on use to figure it out sometimes, but once you get it down it is trouble-free :)

oh ya speaking of leaking how bad of an issue is it with the ody? When I hear leaking I typically run depending on the issue. Are we talking running leaks or just a drop here and there every now and than?

Oh I'm more than certain it's something I'm doing/not doing. It's NOT the unit.
Don't let my screw ups scare you off.

Which o-ring is this please, between the nut and the base?
I'm using double wick, but still have major leaking in big mode.
It's ok until the juice gets about half gone, then it leaks and gurgles.

I have an o-ring on mine like this and it is a 14x1.5 but it didn't come with the Ody it is an extra I had.

Because there is not a problem without a solution, I found a way for people that have leakage with Ody because of the negative wire that is catched between the nut and the base of Ody. Also this trick can be used in other style of atomizers too. That way mesh is used to bring liquid (with the big help of wick too) and it also transfer current to Ody

you can use 510 atomizer in short mode of Ody but without liquid control want my new friend:)
ok I watched some of his videos and just have one or two quick questions.

If I want to use a 510 atty on the ody do I actually need the expansion pack to do so or not? I mean I bought it anyways but I was just wondering if I do need it.

Also this may result in some eye rolling from some but what really is the expansion kit? What other options does the kit allow me? I don't know after watching the videos if he used the expansion kit or not. I thought the ody is just a rebuildable atty tank so to say and with the expansion kit I can use different modes as in short mode, long mode, use regular attys etc am I right?

And last but not least if I use a regular atty with the ody do I have to punch holes into the atty to feed it?

Sorry for all the questions but it will probably not stop for a while.

Don't run WtQ - the Odysseus is magnificent achievement - I have no leaks at all and follow Imeo's directions to the letter. I always watch his video while putting things together for first few times and pause it along the way.

Thank you very much imeo. Looking forward to try the ody but as you can see I have a loooooong journey in learning ahead of me. I just think that once I learn everything about the ody I have one hack of a unit in my hands that offers everything that I was looking for.

Thanks to everyone for helping out with all these newb questions I have. Nothing better than assuming you know everything about vaping and than a unit like the ody comes along and you get a kick in your behind for noticing you know nothing.

haha I was just thinking the same. When I receive the ody on MONDAY(!!!) I will watch the video and assemble it while following his steps. Very excited for Monday.

Btw one more thing where to buy wicking and wire? and which wire and wicking works best? oh boy the questions keep coming haha.

WtQ, there is a learning curve. But it's a quick one! I had a leaking issue, and it was my fault, a quick fix, and it hasn't lost a drop in days. Dspin is absolutely right, Magnificent achievement! IMHO with GGTS base, Odysseus crushes iAtty. There's no comparison in vapor production. It's just as consistent as iAtty too! I haven't had a dry hit since getting it.

Imeo, brilliant idea (I would expect nothing less) and solution to the problem! I've got some mesh, and will be giving this one a go next time, Eventhough I am not getting any leaking, looks like a fun experiment to me ;)

Odysseus Wick from Bruce at COV - he also has wick and wire. Odysseus Wick is excellent. I'm saying this since it says your in Atlanta. If your in Germany, then whatever supplier you bought Oddy from should have the wick.

+++++++++10 on what Gredie says. I never had leakage on the Iatty either. Only reason was I followed Imeo's instructions to the letter. One time I had an issue. I got the wire caught in bottom threads as I was not careful enough. My fault - too much of a hurry that time. Never again, actually ripped my hand open trying to get the plastic from the threads. Ripped right through the rubber jar opener too I was using. Again, my fault - not the Iatty, which by the way is another great acheivement and rebuilable by Imeo.

thanks for the help guys and thanks wiggly sir. How does USPS go about delivery without mailbox? some chick with a brand new Mercedes GL was grabbing a donut in her car, lost control of her car, drove 300 yards over a yard, missed my girlfriend who was walking the dog by 10 yards, crashed through the face of my street, took my mailbox, street light, parts of the neighbors house, into a pick up truck standing in the drive way, made a u turn, and came to a stop in front of my house.

Long story short my ody arrives monday and I don't have a mailbox lol. What to do?
