Yes Imeo, I've seen your non-leaking big mode before. :) This time around though, you're using the V2 - that's cheating! :p

When you say to use 3.5mm wick, is that what I got? I got all my wick from Bruce shortly after the V1 Ody came out, and I now see he has 3.5 and 3.0 but I don't remember what size I got - I am sure he only had one size at the time though.

Regardless, I just can't get mine to not leak...I'm sure it's user error, no fault of your wonderful design. I even get gurgling and some small leakage in short mode from time to time.

I haven't messed with it since posting last, but I think I'm gonna try my hand at a dual coil tonight...in BIG mode. I'll report back!

Did you try this ? , when screwing down the ceramic housing make sure you screw it so that the oring on the positive post is creating a good seal against base .

ah, sorry yeti, I made this video forgetting that you have the V1 style. Then you just have to put the negative wire inside slot but not under the wick but above the wick, so it will make contact with the big ring and the base of Ody

When I try to put the neg wire just down the slot, I have connection issues. I've also tried wrapping the neg wire around the wick, then going down the slot, this way seems to provide a better connection. But either way, I still get leaking.

I'm gonna try again tonight - will report back!

Yup, I'm getting a good seal there. My leaking is from the air hole in the center post - obviously a problem with over wicking.
