Good morning Apes,
about a year ago now I bought an SXK Rose3, my go-to build for this sort of RTA is a 2.5-3mm spaced 316L coil coming to around 0.5 Ohms, running at 22-28W. I cut the cotton flush with the threading for the chimney, pushed everything in place, opened the JFC a full turn and got an incredibly flavourful vape for the first 5 minutes, after that the whole tank emptied on my mod... Since that I periodically take it out of the drawer and try different builds and wicking methods (e.g., the S wick) but I always end up either getting dry hits or floods. I really want to love this tank, I find that it beats even my Taifuns for flavour, and the draw is amazingly smooth. I'd consider myself a fairly good builder, have built and occasionally still build with mesh, vertical coils, parallel, had no problems with "tricky" tanks such as the Taifun GSL, basically it is the only atty I have that I can't say I've cracked the building, and yet I want to use it because it looks amazing and the flavour is nearly unbeatable.
What sort of works is building it like I described, but cutting the wick a bit beyond the threading and then stuffing it back in to cover the whole juice ports, however even then if I dare to turn the chimney more than a hair (literally) it leaks. Clearly not the right solution and I don't feel I can depend on it to take out and about.
Needless to say I have checked all o-rings etc, it won't leak when the chimney is screwed shut and it only leaks through the airflow control.
