I had it in the dash. Gave a guy a ride and after he left it was gone. I trust people to much and try to help those that need a ride. I will continue this regardless. It give me a good feeling to help others.
Sorry that happened to you but keep doing what you do!!!

Not a fan. The juice channels are thin and there is not much space for the wick. Which should sit about halfway down. So I find myself sipping.... Else I get dry hits from taking hits too often or too deep. And then waiting for the bubbles. And the build deck. Yuk. The twisted coils tend to split at the binding posts and since it is open it's hard to capture the wires. I shorted one out last night. I need to order another RTA and it will either be the Merlin or Mage.... Both of which I like much better.

When I finally got mine to not leak or seep, I liked it.
The Serpent Mini is my only RTA that has not leaked or seeped one drop. It is the only RTA I have dared to take with me out of the house for short trips. For longer trips I go with a Cubis Pro (and spare battery + juice bottle).

Recently mine likes to pour all the juice out of the airhole after I refill it. It had been performing flawlessly so I dont have a clue what changed that's causing it to leak like this.

re-wicked it recently/differently?

These are the 2 videos I watched. They both wick them a bit differently but I went more with the Richard Ng method since I use Rayon:

Just a thought the seals may be in reverse. I believe one is larger than the other. Also allow the tank to seal by threading when at all possible. Set the seals in place and thread the ends. My s. mini's haven't leaked yet. Hope it works for you.

HOW ?
i TRIED EVERYTHING

My vaping style may differ from yours, so my solution's may not work for you. I am using a 1.6Ω coil on a mech. device.
I went from a 2.0mm dia. coil to a 2.5mm coil.
I use rayon wick as tight as I can get it in the coil with long tails down almost to the bottom of the channel.
I bought and used one of the inserts for the air hole under the coil from the KFL 5 mouth to lung kit from Origin Vape.

Hopes this helps.

Check utube for sealing and wicking serpent mini. I find the device fairly simple to build with.
I also find it simple to build but like I said, it had been performing flawlessly then began leaking out of the blue. There was nothing different I'd done during refills so I found the leaking bizarre.

Huh.. Interesting. I expect you tried replacing the seals? And new glass. That's all I can think of for now. Course the stainless has be unchanged( that being not dropped).

No I hadn't changed anything. The tank was brand new so in my mind, I shouldn't have had to change anything inside a week of ownership.
