If you love the dot then you'll be the same with the Billet Box....:wub:
I don’t know, Charlie. I’m not good having patience with fiddly things. This new dotaio is already on my grumpy list lol. It needs the oring above the tank replaced. Just need to find out if I have to put in for one, or try the other one in the accessory baggie. It’s an irritation to have it leaky on the inside. I tried a couple other tanks in it, just in case, to no avail :(

Yeah. DotMod says use a quarter. Anything will do but I'd recommend something plastic.
That little thing had me creating new 4 letter words
I can’t STAND leaking. Mod is already in time out on my table. I may go try in a bit. I’d like to get to use it! It’s supposed to be easy to replace.... we’ll see how true that is

It's...sorta easy. You may do better, I was impatient and hurried, causing much frustration. I've taken my Macbook apart a few times, deal with repairing speakers at work. That little thing really got me.

No, that was totally freaking frustrating. I *think* I have it in there correctly. Time will tell. But, honestly... I would have *#¥§ing paid someone to just come and do it for me!

Well that stinks. I’m not having any leaks with either of mine.

I’m sure a person with reasonable patience could do it without swearing. It didn’t take long, it’s just tedious to get it in position. My first one hasn’t leaked or gotten condensation. Based on the difficulty level of application, I’m guessing the first one in mine wasn’t seated quite correctly. It’s not warped or dinged or anything obvious.

Have you explored your wicking or is it the stock coils you're getting the leak with. Sometimes both the BB and the dot are quite wick sensitive.

Good luck and sorry you're vhaving hassle :wub:

I tried 3 tanks in it. The one it came with, then both the stock and rba tanks I use in the other dot. All 3 leak in the new aio, but not in my first. Fingers crossed that tomorrow I’ll see no floods when I open the door to refill

Good morning shinies :wub:

@NolaMel glad you've got it sorted. I agree if a mod causes problems straight away it annoys the heck out of me... good feeling when you get it sorted though :D
It’s a bit of a PITA. Just glad it wasn’t my first introduction to the mod. I probably would have shelved it for such misbehavior! Since my original works so nicely, I knew there had to be a solution. Just part of vaping, I guess. Definitely my least favorite part though!

morning all.
hoping that the two outgoing items reach their destinations real soon.
nothing new here apart from thoughts of thinning the herd a little further. some mechs will be sold or PIFd. trouble is that i don't know any fellow mechers.
