Z Atty Pro 2.1 issues.

[raqball]

Ok,

This is my 1st rba and I am having some growing pains.. I have been vaping for over 3 years (drip and carto tanks) and while I am adjusting well to the Z Atty I am having a few issues that maybe fellow users can assist with,

1st of all I an not having any coil issues. I wrapped my 1st one and it came out perfect.

My issues are with the wick. The ceramic wick that came installed lasted all of 2 days before it broke. How it broke I have no clue but it snapped right where it enters the wick hole.

I didn't want to use the extra ceramic that came with the unit so I loaded up some 400x400 SS that I purchased from ProVape. I also purchased the o-ring kit because it comes with the insulator that's needed to use the SS wicks.

Now my issue... I put the insulator in the wick hole and put the SS wick in the tank. Wrapped up a nice coil that fires nicely with no hot spots. Everything is working great but..

I am getting a TON of juice leaking into the top cap now. If I don't slightly tilt the device when vaping I get dry hit. If I tilt it I am flooding and getting a ton of juice overflow. If I vape with the device in a straight position I am not flooding or or getting dry hits but I am still getting a decent amount of juice in the tip cap.

Is the SS wick to small (even when used with the insulator)? Does the insulator not work well with the Z Atty 2.1?

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks!

I personally don't use the insulator. You are limited to how much mesh you can put in there with the insulator in. Roll a fatter wick, but not to fat. 40mmx40mm is perfect IMO. Get yourself some 500 ss mesh too. Condensation will occur but it should not be leaking.
