510T leaking!!!

[silversx]

i got a 510T kit and received it on thursday.. all was fine until i realized that it leaks!!!

and i'm not talking tiny leak.. i'm talking soaking wet leak.. at first i thought it was just one of the battery/atty.. today i realized it's both!!.. i had the one i thought was fine fully assembled with juice and all laying on the desk for about 24 hours.. when i picked it up just now.. it was covered in juice.. from where the battery meets the atty all the way down to the tip of the battery..

what am i doing wrong.. i have read so many good things about the 510t so this is very surprising..

the other one was in my cup holder in the car for 2 hours and it leaked out a river when i returned..

wtf..

vicki from cignot said i should pull the wick out more???? no idea how to do that.. and i don't think i have to do that for a brand new kit!!

I purchased the 510T with the thought that I would really like it. Although mine doesn't leak... it just wasn't what I had expected. It was just very airy and stiff. Between leaks and other malfunctions, I can see why it's not popular. I really don't know how to stop the leaking. I hope someone else can help!

i emailed vicki at cignot for a refund.. i just don't want to deal with all this.. i should not have to tweak and fix and adjust or exchange something brand new..

hopefully she can help

It's okay, it happens with vaping in general. Just don't give up and use what somewhat works for you right now. I'm currently waiting to test out a friend's PV to see if I like it more than my stuff.

My second system was a 510T, for my buds to try vaping. I'm a fond fan of the kit. I've never had an issue with leakage (510T-wise

).

One thing I do is pre-perforate the tanks with a dental tool ground to a diameter a lil' smaller than the chad. This takes much pressure off the spike when inserting new tanks. I suspect that the pressure it takes to puncture the tank may force the wick down into the spike. Just a WAG...
