Hi, I've also got an Ammit 22, real one BUT... the juice control has NO control! I mean it only opens half way and then leaks like crazy...any idea why or how 2 solve the problem? THANX
The wicking on the ammit despots it’s claims is pretty twitchy. The cotton needs to just exactly touch the bottom of the juice well while completely filling it. It makes an air/water seal via capillary action. If you put too much cotton in it dry hits. If you don’t have enough it leaks. This is true of most bottom feed atomizers.

As mentioned by @bombastinator, the wicking is basically what causes ur ammit to leak. You need to put the exact amount of cotton with the ends just exactly touching the base of the juicewell. Too thin or too short of a wick will cause leaking. Too much wick will dry hit. Its a little finicky but once you get it right, it vapes awesome. Doesnt matter if your juice flow control is wide or half closed. Also when filling the tank, close the airflow channel completely then open again once u finish filling up. Good luck [emoji106][emoji41]

I'm going to agree that it's probably the wicking at issue, and if you've used too much cotton (which I did a lot of to start, and I got leaking) you may need to go thinner AND shorter. I know this doesn't make much sense, but you really need your wick to be exactly right, in order to avoid dry hits AND leaking. I'd try using what seems like "not enough" and "too short" cotton and make sure you thin out the tails. It took me a long time to master this. I'm not even going to get into coiling, but, as usual, my problems with wicking were "too much" not "not enough." I was really surprised at the size and shape of the wick that I needed actually, I was pretty sure things weren't going to work out, but they did.

Best of luck,

Anna

One more question about resistance growing up. I see that my pico shows that battery goes empty resistance from 0.51 rises to 0.61. Is it good or no?

I had that problem once using a Kanger Subtank Mini on the Subox Mini. I removed the tank and cleaned the contacts for both the tank and the 510 pin. Next I also cleaned the battery and mod battery contacts. I do this from time to time on all my mods, and I get consistent results

The wicking channels on this atty are comprised of a dished out area with a small hole in the bottom of that area. For me a the amount of cotton I put in a 3mm coil is perfect. Cut the cotton so the ends just sit on the bottom of the dish. Do not attempt to push the cotton through the little hole in the bottom. The cotton should fill the entire dish. Some call this the damming method. You are damming up the well. The very ends of the cotton may find their way through the little hole in the bottom and that is ok. Done in this manner I get great flavor and no leaking even if I don't close the juice control while filling.

I just got this tank and I love it! Had the dry hits due to too much cotton, but fixed it with my second wicking. Flavorful clouds although it does leak a little when I refill. Gonna try closing airflow next time I fill. Loving this Ammit 22!!!
