Zeus Dual - Orings on the tank???

[Monotremata]

Just curious, is the Zeus Dual supposed to have an o-ring of some sort in that little groove in the base where the tank sits? Ive noticed every time I fill it, I get some ever so slight leaking out of the bottom of the tank right there. Took it apart and noticed its just bare metal in there, no o-ring to help seal it, that cant be safe for screwing down the tank can it??

Was trying to google for a parts breakdown or even a decent pic of the base. I could've sworn in one pic I could see a clear o-ring in there, but for all I know the pic was yet another digital mockup of the thing instead of the actual RTA.

Usually the home site has a complete break down picture. If not go to yt for a review breakdown.

In the video linked below the glass tube has a clear o-ring attached, I assume it goes on the bottom in the groove you are talking about. I think this because it appears the air flow ring has a black o-ring that would seal the top end of the glass.

The video point that shows the clear o-ring is 18 seconds in, it's the second time the glass tube is shown.

Hahaha I just realized what a dumba** I am! Im guessing when I took it apart to initially clean it, I didnt notice the o-ring was attached to the glass. I guess when I put it back together I put it together upside down haha. I took it apart to change the wick and dry burn the coil earlier, and when I took the glass off, there it was stuck to the top. Maybe thats why it was so hard to screw down in the first place hehe. Ooops.. Gonna go flip it over and refill this thing!

For RTAs with a glass tube, I don't think I have ever NOT seen an o-ring on the top AND the bottom of the glass tube.

Has anyone seen a glass tube that didn't use o-rings??

Maybe the SMM? Pif'd mine so not positive.

I don't think the Zeus Dual has one on top actually. Although I don't feel like opening it back up since its full now hehe. That o-ring under the airflow ring doesn't sit on top in between the tank and the top cap, it kinda pops inside the glass. Who knows, maybe theres a clear one stuck in the top of mine I couldn't see. The one that was stuck to the tank was hard as hell to see since it had juice on it too (how did you even see that in the GV video??). Should've known better. Oh well, its fixed now, not a single leak on this tank. Also shortened the legs on my coil so it sits centered and now its alot lower. Haven't had a single bit of spit back and the thing is hitting like it was meant to now! These claptons though are killing my batteries and juice!

The one on the airflow that fits inside the glass is there to seal the top of the glass. Several tanks use that design where the o-ring fits inside the glass tube.

Yeah it was different for me hehe. Im used to Kayfun style bottom airflow tanks for the most part. Was relieved at the lack of parts in this compared to my KF4/5 and finally no stupid leaking juice control or picky wicking like my Cthulhu MTL!!!

I only have Zeus singles...wasn't sure about the dual.

That o-ring on the bottom edge of the glass can peel off and does go into the grove on the bottom deck. I just switched my stock glass with a bubble tank that came with no o-rings. I just pealed it of the straight glass and placed it into the groove of the deck. The new bubble tank sealed just perfectly...more capacity and it looks better too! Double joy!
They have the bubble tank at myfreedomsmokes for $2.95
