The base screws into the mod. Then you are going to place a tank full of juice on it and fill it up making it heavy. While the o-rings might (a very big might considering its sold on FT) hold the tank on, eventually they will fail. All it will take at some point is not holding it upright and the weight of the tank, a coating of ejuice on the orings, and gravity will cause it to fall off of the base. That or drop it and then juice goes everywhere. I have seen this before with the old kayfun extension tanks. Remember there are two types of vapers. Those that have dropped a mod and those that will drop a mod.
If you force the tank laterally with a finger, practically nothing happens (and of course nothing happens from the weight of the tank only): I, too, initially thought the old v.7/v.8 system to be better, but then I realized that the new style has IMHO no real drawbacks (maybe the "old" screw type JFC was more precise, but it can also be the old habit speaking)
IIRC those Kayfun tanks you are referring to had a single o-ring and a minimal metal seating (like SKU 9472701 ), while this has three o-rings and a remarkably long "neck" portion of metal base in between.
I had the original BY Ka v.9 (5ml version) to test and play with for a couple of days, and I actually had to open the tank pulling it straight and with some force (and I suppose that a clone, if decently built, should behave the same).
AFAIK of all the people that are posting about BY-Ka v.9 on italian vaping forums, nobody is complaining about it opening by accident.
Of course, they are still new... but, eventually, for the future we also have spare o-ring sets, don't we?
