I have been vaping on Kanger minis, and I've recently acquired an Aerotank to add to my set up. I've noticed that after vaping for a while, some liquid condensation starts to pool up under the drip tip and begins to collect on the shelf under the tip. If I forget to swab out the shelf and the drip tip I eventually get a mouthful of liquid. This also happens from time to time with my Pro-tank 2 that I've fitted with an Aerotank base.

Is there something that I'm doing wrong in my set up, or is there a way to avoid this? At the worst it's a minor irritation. I don't have many problems with the Kanger minis. I'm vaping 70/30 NETs on an iTaste MVP v.2. usually about 7-8.5 watts. 1.8 to 2.2 ohm coils.

I think the building up of liquid there is normal, because it happened to me as well when I used those kinds of setups. There's really not that much to worry about, I just cleaned it out every now and then with a paper towel.

It's bound to happen when your heating up the vapor, causing it to vaporize and it comes up that channel when your hitting it, and not inhaling every bit of it will cause it to stay in there and settle back on the shelf there, considering it is a vaporized liquid. At least that's what I chalked it up to, just a minor annoyance like you stated I think.

I kinda figured that it came with the territory of that set up. I got an unfortunate and surprising mouthful of liquid last week.

Remember to take slow long draws--not quick puffs like you would while smoking a cig. Make sure you're vaping at correct wattage--if your wattage is too high, the hot juice may jump off of the coil and land in your mouth.

Some condensation is to be expected with clearomizers--just keep the mouthpiece and the center tube dry. A Q-tip or even a rolled up piece of tissue can can to be used to wipe off the condensation.

I have pro tank 2 with added aero base and a aerotank never had one issue with either. But I also added to both of mine long drip tips one 2"s and the other closer to 3"s I did this as to help the vapor cool off more for a smoother throat hit and works nicely for me so nicely I just ordered 2 more set ups but I do prefer the protank 2 cause I like the coil better personally
