OBS Cheetah 2 crappy o-rings

Following up on my new OBS Cheetah 2 RDA... I love the build deck, nice philips screws, easy to
build on.. used the supplied clapton coils, but got zero flavor.. I think it was my own wicking issues
and not the RDA's fault..
But that doesnt matter anyway, because I am never going to use this POS.....

The o-rings are so thin and loose, when I pinch them gently with my fingers they bow out, and when
I try to put the top cap piece on, the o-rings slip out of the notch and get all twisted.. see pics:

This thing is a total waste of my $$$$$.. too bad :(

did you try to replace them with the spares?

Those ARE the replacements.. lol.. they just roll right out of the notch when I put the top cap on and get stuck.. I snapped the
first set of rings.. and yes, I lubed them with 100% unflavored VG.. that made it WORSE!!!
They are just very thin and loose...
I have a o-ring set at work, but I think those are all to thick...
This RDA is useless to me....

Sorry to hear you had that problem, my has been issue free except for the drip tip is a bit too short and I touch that hot top cap to my lips.

That's not good. Perhaps you can return it if it's not too late?

I may just do that... I checked the o-rings on my other RDA's, and they are fatter.. The groove for the o-rings on the Cheetha are not very deep, so
it wont make any difference using other o-rings cuz they are just going to slip out.... I really wanted to like this because I love the build deck and
the nice juice well...
