My first experience was the same as yours. I bought 15 from a supplier because they were on sale for $35 and the reviews were great, they started out amazing but went down fast. The first ones i got were listed at 2.0 ohm. I went through 12 of these (15 in 7 days), I use the monkeyboxx mod and I would go through 3 carts to drain one 6mil bottle. My first cart form hoosierecigsupply.com is way better, theirs were listed at 1.25. I am now on my second tank using the first cart and it is vaping like crazy, with great flavor. Anytime i can vape 12 mills of juice from a single cart I am happy. The vapor at 3.7 is the best I have had. Now let me say all of us know that you can get a really good cart and / or atomizer and the next 10 can all be bad, so I caution that I am still on the first cart. I ordered 10 at $2 each. But if the next 9 are 1/2 as good as the first one I am really, really impressed.
 
My GPSSR started leaking around the bottom endcap o-ring after a cleaning. Only thing I did to clean was rinse with a little water. It's not much, but enough to leave a small puddle if left in one place long. I've examined the o-ring and don't see any damage to it, not sure why it all of the sudden started leaking
I'm considering trying a larger o-ring on it.

Does anyone know what size 0-ring the SSR uses? I just want to find a few back up o-rings in case I may need them. TIA

I would suggest you disassemble your SSR and head on down to your local hardware store. I know that I was amazed, when I was rebuilding air pistols, the variety of sizes they carry in their little parts bins, usually for 5 or 10 cents each. Just make sure you get synthetic rings, I fear that real rubber will taint your juice. Once you find the right size, pick up a fistful of them. Just make sure you label your ziplock with the size, in case you ever need more.

I did take it apart and it is noted just a touch smaller than a 510 drip tip 0-ring. I will have to check out some stores this coming week. Better yet I will just send my hubs to the store...for some reason he will find it faster than me...LOL

I suggest a smaller store, those big chains carry what sells the best, smaller places actually have better selections. Also, sometimes it's better to wet your o-rings slightly to lube them. I would suggest a drop of VG on your finger would make a good seal lube.

The bolded Information in the following post pertains to the O-Ring used between the adapter and the CE2 of the GP-SSR.

Mine didn't come with or I somehow lost the O-ring on the bottom of the CE2 and leaked like mad when I first filled it up. After a few emails with Rob I went to Lowes and bought a pack of #47 O-rings and put one on there and tightened it up finger tight then just snugged it up very little with a pair of needle nose pliers and It hasn't leaked a drop since. I have shaken it turned it upside down and even fell asleep last night with it in my bed a woke up rolling around on it not a drop leaked.
I have a 2.4 CE2 in mine and it hits pretty hard and makes lots of vapor on my Megalodon with an 18650 I really like it!

Good job Rob and thanks for your help getting me set up with it.
