I have bought from FT this o ring set "Iwodevape Silicone O-ring Set for SUBTANK Clearomizer". In the package there is a flat o ring. I just tried it in one of my Serpent minis, and it seems to fit about right. Might be worth getting a couple packages and give it a try.

I bought one on a whim, now its the only one I use lol. vapor beast has them on clearance (why????) for 20 each. I use a .8 ohm clapton around 20w. Works perfectly for me. My only complaint with the mini vs the regular serpent would be that the little bugger gets hot rather quickly. I swapped out the included drip tips which helped a little.
For those of you that are new to the mini, I've learned a method of wicking it that works REALLY well. Someone may have posted it already, but it can't hurt to bring it up again. Once you have coiled it and pulled your cotton through, cut the exposed tails lengthwise so that it's split. Then, just juice the tails tucking one into the cutout groove, and the other off to the side (kayfun style). Make sure you don't have any fibers in the threads, juice up the cotton good, and screw it back together. Be careful as the top can cross thread easily. I discovered that the hard way lol. Fill, take a couple light dry pulls, vape and enjoy 
. I find this to be the best method due to the fact that when I originally wicked it strictly "kayfun style" that more often than not, it would get "slurpy". Once I wicked it this way, I've never had that problem since.

Any chance you have a photo of this?
I just have to be different, I cut my wicks so they are approx 3/16" to 1/8" from the bottom of the channels. That seems to work best for me.
Well, I just got my Serpent Mini and built my first coil ever. I used 26 ga SS316, with 6 wraps at 3mm. It's a contact coil. It worked out to be 0.48 ohms. The coil seems to be working, but the wicking is a work in progress. I don't seem to be getting as much vapor or flavor as I do with my Atlantis EVO and I've gotten some dry hits when I used it on VW. I ended up re-wicking and giving it another try. I think this one is better. I have tied using TC on my new DNA and I had to turn up the temp to 480-490F to get some decent vapor. At 420F I was getting nothing. Is this normal?

I use mesh roll with very small hole about 1mm instead kayfun reducer, insert in the air hole till it fits snugly. Setup : 26ga SS316L and 2.0mm in diameter, 7wraps, cotton native wicks premium, 0,40 ohm, 28w on Dicodes Dani V2plus - best MTL for ever
Looks like a taller Serpent Mini (Serpent Mega) will be out soon. Funny thing is that Motofo claims that both models hold 3ml. I would have bought this one, if I had known.
Wotofo Serpent Mega RTA Atomizer
PS This one looks to be a dual coil.

Yeah, its probably a velocity style deck. Im still on the single coil kick, maybe the base will fit on the Mega?
I got the serpent mini because of all the wonderful reviews. But I can't for the life of me separate the deck from the tank. Any advice?

Just when I was about to give up, I was finally able to remove the deck.

The Serpent Mini is my first RTA and so far I'm really liking it and it's working well. I did have one question. I had noticed that when I top off the tank, I start to get noticeably more vapor. I thought it was from the additional juice, but then I figured out that it did the same thing from just removing the top and replacing it. So it obviously has something to do with the pressure in the tank. Is this normal or is there something I should be doing differently? I'm running a 3mm, 6 warp, 26 ga SS316L, 0.46 ohm coil with a cotton wick, at 480F. It's working great and I'm getting good vapor, it's just that the vapor dies down slightly after I vape for a bit.
@Ed_C Its normal, as you vape, a vacuum is created in the tank that slows down the wicking. Maybe try a little less wick so the air can work its way into the tank.
I often loosen off the top to let air in. Its called 'burping' the tank.

@dansus Thanks, I'll try that when I re-wick. I've heard the expression "burping the tank" but wasn't sure if it was normal. I've never really noticed a drop off in vapor with my prebuilt coil tanks.
That Gold Serpent is a real beauty! I had one in my cart but swapped it out for a 25mm. Now I am bumming.
