The JFC "dial" is actually the tank, rotate it right = FULL , to the left = OFF. Mine moves very easily, don't have to look at the icons at all.

Mine too. That is not the main problem, the main problem is closing it does not prevent leaking when refilling.

So far, I have only refill once witouht leaking the rest all incur leaking.

This is the first tank that behave so odd... my biggest frustration is I couldn't really figure out what make it stop after the leaking starts. It seems a quick close back of the top cap is the trick but I am yet to test it a few more rounds to come to a conclusion.

My advice is don't buy this tank if "leaking" when refilling is your concern.

Btw, I am not buying this tank for its dual coil deck, so, all my experience and observation on this tank is based on its single coil deck.

I was simply pointing out that the first problem you listed does not exist in regards to the JFC. As far as leaking on filling, with my max VG juice, I have not seen that.

The leaks I have seen were much later. I just rewicked, again with rayon, almost exactly how I did it the first time. However, I spread my coils further, so the last winds were a bit wider then then the width of the bottom air hole (single coil deck). I tried to make sure the rayon was not over or touching the air hole. It's the only way I think juice could be getting down into the airflow area and coming out the airflow control area. I'll keep an eye on it thus week.

Just got mine, put a simple 1,5ohm single coil in there and I love it!!
Very easy to coil and wick, no leakage yet after 4 refills so jfc seems to work for me or my wicking was spot on the very first try
Put the extender on it and that also works great.

Don't like that the afc control sticks out a bit, because of this it won't fit my Xvo and Ystick, but it does fit the Smoant Knight.
On the Istick pico I have to remove the battery cap before I put the tank on else the afc can't be adjusted properly, but that's no biggie as you won't be removing the tank that often.

I finally figure out how to stop the "refill means leaking" problem.

I notice the base o-ring is loose out of the box and the other 3 spare balck o-rings are identical to the one in use. So I replace it with the transparent one (see image below). The leaking problem resolved!

    Somewhere between here and there
    I'm beginning to think that mine is never going to arrive from gearbest. I have another tank on order from them that was supposed to arrive on the 3rd but hasn't yet. It appears to be stuck in Chicago. The goblin shipping hasn't updated since the 27th.

    Got you beat, I have an order from GB that hit US customs on the 22nd and no more news.

    I feel for you. It's not exactly something you want to beat someone at. Maybe some day I'll learn not to order from them. I placed a ft order the day prior and received that order over a week ago.

    Same here, ordered from FT the day after and I've had that order for 2 weeks now.
