Not that I don't want you to get a Boreas, but if you're sure it's not your wicking, then an o ring or seal is bad or missing. I'm sure you can fix your Alleria
I think it’s the other way around, Subtanksupply is one of the best places I’ve ordered from. They have another pre order up for 75 more black Boreas to be in Friday, there going fast now.
Ok, well thatcould be it. My bottom o ring was upside down. So when I swap it out, I was putting it back in the same way... upside down...One thing about the Alleria -- the outer cage has a distinct TOP and bottom. Every time I hear someone saying the threads crunch or it leaks like a sieve, I can't help but think either the cage is screwed on upside down or perhaps the rings are in backwards / upside down.
Here are some pictures that may help someone. Please don't flame me.

My Alleria doesn’t leak as long as it’s wicked properly. It does spit some condensation out of the airflow holes but not much.I'm awaiting delivery of my first Alleris, but after reading about the leaking I was having doubts about it, but I'm glad you posted some pictures of how the seals a supposed to sit alexm as this is one atty I am now looking forward to getting up and running.
Just hope I can get it running like the Boreas as that as so far been leak free
It’s easy to wick, I just tuck them under the ring and leave a little sticking out under the ring. I love the flavor from the Alleria but I find myself using the Boreas 90% of the time, I get great flavor with the Boreas also. If I want the concentrated flavor from the Boreas I just pop on a smaller drip tip.That's good to know, I'll make sure I read up on all the advice on here before I get mine up and running, as with all atty's I suppose they is a leaning curve before you get them up and running correctly.
I have also got a second Boreas on the way to me now, I was thinking about having 3 of them because how easy it was to get up and running with no issues at all, but on hearing how much of a flavour atty the Alleria was I just couldn't resist trying one out, and it will interesting in trying them out side by side and seeing how they compare to each other
.52 ohms for the pair. It's actually 9/8 wrap 28g stainless steel 3mm hiding inside a buttload of cotton.
I was going to say! Looked like some crazy 2 wrap coil.
I hope it resolves your issues. I've had tanks *cough Kayfun taifun*cough* that I jacked up the orings on and it took me forever to get em to run dry.

The thing that got me initially was losing the bottom ring on the alleria. That thing would dive for any sink drain within 100 yards. So I got in the habit of making sure I place it on the base when I clean before I rinse the tank.
Was never able to screw the cage on upside down though. But I imagine I could if I forced it a little. Not willing to wreck the threads to find out.

Woop woop! Like my grandfather used to say: "a working tank on the mod is worth two in the mail truck. "
I don’t think the Alleria was designed by Roxy, she tested it and gave feedback on it. She has another one in the works called the Merlin.Well with my second Boreas arriving, at the same time came my first Alleria tank.
And this is now my second designed tank from Roxy & Augvape that I have managed to get up and running without the tanks giving me a single leak.
And you lot have been correct, this little Rta is a flavour monster
I love the idea of being able to see your coil and wicks, and the juice control is a great idea.
My only negative thing with this tank, and sorry Roxy, but it's not being able to use your own style of drip tip with it, I normally like using longer drip tips, I wish it came with an adapter so you could do this, but on saying that I've had no issues with using the drip tip it came with.
So yet again it's a winner for me, thanks Roxy & Augvape
Definitely got me hooked, lolOmg dude seriously

I put our SS vertebraid in here, and it's amazing. Just on flavor and performance, right now it's beating my griffin. and it's less finicky to wick. The coils do have to be smaller, but not aromamizer small. you can fit in 3. plus it's a glass chimney so no shorts, but right now i'm sticking with 2.5mm/7wrap on the vert and I love it.
What is different with the Merlin? Maybe it appeals to me!
Hmmm... why the single coil? More for flavor builds? I almost picked up a moradin rta that is smaller like that for smaller coil flavor builds.
Me, too
Single coil setups, especially higher performance ones, are really underappreciated I feel. There's some tanks and drippers that are just awesome with a single coil ss clapton or vertebraid. Dual coil is not necessarily better in those devices. I did a flat (ribbon) clapton 316L build on the tsunami last night, and the single coil version beats the heck out of the dual coil version of that build. But I think people see single coil and think kayfun style, mouth to lung, super restricted airflow..Me, too
You've got my attention...
