An ego-t type b tank leaking problem

[Todd Mulske]

I am using a type b ego tank and for some reason I just cannot get it to quit leaking. I am using the silicone seals and made sure my wick was adjusted right. The liquid is pooling around the tube that holds the wick and then it drips into the atty. Really wasting a lot of juice. Anyone with any suggestions on possible stopping this.

I think I know what's going on. I might be hitting on it too hard and the heating element might be getting the tube to hot causing the fluid to leak out of the hole on the silicone seal.

I have the same set-up and deal with the same sort of issues. its a real pain in the ....!!!! im working on finding fixes. Just make sure you dont use 100% pg. add a little vg to thicken it up a tad. You can also un screw the battery a bit for an easier draw.

I have the ego t and had the same problem I found the silicone caps to soft so I went back to a new tank, but instead of popping the cap off and filling I punture the empty tank first then remove the tank and fill with surenge. Since I have done this the leaking has stopped completely. I found that removing the cap each time to fill weakened the seal around the cap and thats what produced the leaking. Hope this helps

I gave up on the tanks all together and went to cartomizers for the same reason. Give the Boge 3.0 or 2.0 a hard look. they are cheaper than the tank attys by far and require alot less maint.

I agree, I liked the tanks and started having the leaking issues with the silicon caps even before using the tank, I used SR, LR, type A and B and my juice was 100%VG juice. I hope, for the sake of a lot of noobs, that the ego-c corrects the leaking issues. I haven't had any issues with the boge's yet and the 2 ohm on an ego batt is a nice vape. Then add a chibi tank and vape for a day without refilling

Good idea! I think I will try that with my B tank.

Todd, I had the same problem with my B's (although thicker juice helps a bit). Recently I only use my eGo-T A tanks (cone shaped) and have absolutely no leaking or any problems at all. I love them.
