2 holed DC tank carts leaking?

[dj9928]

Has anyone else had this issue? I bought the smok DC tank and it came with a DC Cart with 1 hole, never had any issues, I bought a couple of replacement carts and wondered why they would flood and leak, so I sat down and studied the old cart and these new carts and I discovered the new carts have 2 holes, so I decided to polyfil over 1 of the holes, and low and behold problem solved, no more leaking or flooding, has anyone else had this problem?

I had the opposite, 1 hole wasn't saturating the carto. It depends on what juice you vape really. VG is thicker than PG. Since I vape 100VG currently 2 holes is about right.

It'd be nice if my regular vendor gave more options for hole #s, or at least listed how many there were.

A quick edit, for my order: the smoketek cartos (boxed) are 1 hole, and the boge ones I got are all 2 hole. I'm getting more used to differnt equipment now so it's not an issue so much as "I don't like fiddlin' all the time" So much that at the last vapemeet someone walked away with 6 smoketek cartos for free.

For my day to day vaping I use cheapo PG Eliquid so I presume it must be 100% PG, I have a bottle of Freedom Smoke USA juice here which is 50/50 so I might try that and see if that does the same.

If you do happen to get a juice that's too thick, add a drop of distilled water to the tank, and shake. Test it and if it's still too thick add another. Don't go overboard, you can add distilled but you can't take it out. Primer puffs (short hard pulls without firing the battery) help too. If you see a bubble or two leave the hole then it's getting into the carto.

You can order directly from Smoktek with the option of either one or two holes, predrilled. Also available the same way with the single coil replacements, which I prefer. They drain your batteries less because of only one heating coil to power, and provide just as much vapor as the dual coils.

Ya ya just have to use different liquid mixtures with the diff punched cartos.If you ever use higher vg liquid you will probly have to punch bigger holes in them even if you get the ones with 3 holes.Trial and error will only tell.
