Please help. I have stopped the tank from leaking but now im getting dry hits. Can people please send pics and help me wick it correctly. Mant thanks in advance
 
I use a sheet of cotton that is about 6mm wide, then I roll it up and put it into the coil (twisted 28AWG 3mm in diameter approx.) Once it is in I grab the cotton with tweezers and try to pull on it and remove layers of cotton if needed, the idea is to get it to a point where you can pull on it and pull it out without much effort but it is packed enough to stay in place by itself. Then I trim the ends and cover with juice, put each end gently on top of the wicking hole and make sure that it goes inside the hole by about - 0.5 - 1mm. Gently screw the cap back on trying to avoid it catching the cotton.

So far I've re wicked it twice and it works fine, no dry hits. I'll post a pic when I get home if I don't forget.
 
I'd also love to know the best way to wick this. I can either get perfect vaping, which leaks when you open the top to refill, or dry hits

I too was also getting leaking when refilling when I first started using this. I found that if I run the tank quite low I could refill it by -

1. Shutting the air flow.
2. Turning the tank on it's side (ala Lemo 2). Then close the top cap as quickly as possible.

Not had any issues with it since. As for wicking, I find you can be quite generous.

As above. Turn on side and fill like lemo 2 and I've had no issues either.
 
This is how it looks at the moment, I am not getting dry hits or leaks from it at 45W. BUT i noticed that it kinda starts leaking a bit when the tank is laid on the side or at a high angle. I am not overly happy with this one, it does work though. The coiling isn't great either. The most important part is that the wick doesn't reach too far or too short in the hole.
