510 leaking

[jumper101]

My yeti is leaking when i drip on the atty, it leaks between the atty and battery. I thought it was because it was too full so i keep vaping and the vapor never lessons i take like 10 to 15 drags and it still seems fine so ill add 3 drops so i dont burn up the atty and it will leak anyone got an answer for me?

You probably need to drip just SLIGHTLY less. If I have an atomizer that gets like that, sometimes it helps to "blow it out" and start over. Everyone has a different technique, but what I do is stuff the corner of a paper towel or napkin into the 510 atomizer and then blow through the battery end to flush out as much liquid as possible. It can also help to boil, place it in alcohol (everclear), or an ultrasonic cleaner to get rid of anything that may have built up inside. Some people will do a "dry burn" on an atomizer to use the heat to clean off anything that may be left behind, but I don't personally recommend it because it can pop an atty if you do it too long or just make the burnt taste worse.

Once done and it seems to be completely clean and dry, you'll need to start by adding 4-8 drops and give them some time to soak into the coil and it should work much better. If it "floods" and starts leaking again, it just means you need to use fewer drops--maybe back down to just 1 or 2 drops at a time and wait a little longer before refilling.

What Thulium described is what often works for me.

If you're getting 10 to 15 drags in between dripping you're dripping way to much unless you're taking 1 second drags. I generally get maybe 5 - 7 or so good drags before I have to drip again. 2 - 3 drops works for me and keeps it from flooding.

As long as you are still getting lots of vapor than the atty is wet and there is no need to add more juice. Add more juice when the vapor lessens or when the flavor starts to taste dry.
