Excess condensation can occur if your coil is still producing after you stop drawing. However IMO it is not enough power getting to the supplied liquid.
A- over wicking/flooding.
B- drained batteries.
C- coil resistance too high.
Usually C. ;-)
My v2.1 came today. Errr, well put my paws on it ~ 7 hours ago.
breaking in the coil ... right now

congratulations, enjoy!!!!
Interesting. So the droplets of juice that is under the top cap is due to a wrong build. Learning something new everyday.
Very small droplets are one thing. Wishing the deck had a drain for liquid to return to the tank is another. ;-)
So is 22mm the stock size? I would like the air hole to line up better than this one.
The hole on that one was about a half a mm off the wick. If you buy a 19mm it will over shoot the wick by quite a bit if you buy 21 you'll have to sand the tank down.
Since there are two holes for a wick on the orion, if one hole has been over shot you can aim for the next one by wet sanding the tank down.
Kathy only has the 20-21mm in stock. The 18 and 19 she made me was custom and cost extra, fyi.

The 18 is to short. The top of the tank just misses the top oring.
The 19 was hitting between the two wick holes. I wet sanded it until I had it lines up with the first wick hole clockwise, which happened to be the one I had been using any how. I'd say the tank is somewhere around 18.75mm +/- after sanding it. I couldn't sand it anymore, I would be cutting it to close to having the top oring not seal on the tank.

I've been trying to recoil with a new ss mesh and everytime, the coil breaks when the only the top coils lits up. What could be wrong? i have been trying for 2 hours now... i have pre-oxidize the mesh. i tried both twisted and single coils. 32 a1 kanthal and nichrome. And i need to get a vape lol ...
i think so too.. when i try to fire it without a wick it glows evenly, so i was thinking the same thing, but i have pre-oxidize the mesh 3 times, each time soaking into water, and 3 times with my juice. I have done this before but today i'm not able to do it. i am using a new mesh i ordered from ebay. it's a 400 mesh.
Check your wick with a multimeter. It should read 1 when putting both probes on the wick at different spots.
