All the o-rings seem to be fine, wick is just touching the bottom of the juice well. It seems OK so far, let's see what it's like later today.

If it happens again, I'll check that no cotton is covering the air intake. That apparently is one major cause, it was alright when I built the deck but it's conceivable that screwing the chimney on may have moved it.

In an rba that feeds like that one 'just touching' doesn't apply like others.
You don't want it crammed tightly full, but you want the wells completely full of cotton.
You want the wells full enough to act as a dam against the liquid, but loose enough to allow it to wick up to the coils.
I have found those types of RBAs need more cotton in them than you think to stop leaks.

If it were just your cotton over the air inlets it would gradually find it's way down them. If it's dumping fairly quickly, like you describe, you don't have enough wick in the wells.
Make your wicks longer and fill the wells more.

What’s hilarious is how much I payed for this guy, prior to knowing my options on the web for vaping needs. Man that seems like ions ago, but only 9 months since the inception of this.... ,umm,...hobby, yea that’s it... my hobby

I got my first kit when E-cigs just hit the US in roughly 2007-2008.
It was the original Joyetech EGo w/ 1st gen carts.
2 650mAh EGo batteries, one atomizer, 5 drip tip/carts, and charger was $89.95 from Vapor Kings.

That was standard pricing everywhere, but they threw in a 10ml bottle of Dekang liquid.

Other good news, the building has commenced on the all new pre-order elites. Only 50 were created by this master of mod builders. I was fortunate enough to have #1 & #25. It’s been a long 3 months waiting for these guys. But, if all goes well, which IMO no reason not to, I shall be having vape mod induction ceremonies by the weeks end.

Will your coil builds, and your face, handle their 1000 watts of power though?

I’m currently hitting it at about 300watts give or take.. I ramped it up once to 50% and .. well. No, just no

We need a video of you doing the full 1000 watts on the Elite.
We can put it next to the one of the guy vaping Carolina Reapers.

Oh no, I tell the hubs it’s allll needs. I’m going to be in trouble if he starts counting shoes, purses and costas . Vape stuff is nicely stored away. I just have too many shiny hobbies I think

I'd probably do it for a million dollars.
I'm not cheap, but I do have a price.

And now I need another 21700 for my lonely batteries lol. Detonator only uses one at a time

I always say, "Ask me, I might."

And I hear being in one of those iron lungs is the closest step to a coffin

I feel like "The Count"on Sesame Street saying that

Sounds an awful lot like you're getting a Mirage.

I always buy in pairs . Guess the Aegises count too... ok, fine! I just want one cause it’s purty. What’s the board like on them? And fire time? I’ve had too many regret buys to admit to, jumping the gun just because I like it.
