Another Ego-T Newb Question

[gousooners18]

I have some new stuff on the way, but i'm wondering if the stock tank cartridges tend to leak a little bit or is there something I can do to prevent that from happening. They are just the standard mouthpiece tanks that came with the kit.

Happy vaping

If they have the harder plastic caps, you can replace them with the softer rubber caps.
Some people also use a paperclip or something to pre-punch the hole before they insert the tank in the atty.
That's the only two tips I've picked up.
Of course, the best thing is to take all that stuff off and use a 2.4-2.6ohm Fluxomizer. The taste better and never leak.

You can try replacing the plastic caps with rubber ones. This seemed to minimize if not eliminate the leak.

I've used the eGo tanks for 3 months now with no leaking problems, the main thing is to use a soft, slow drag with them. I actually prefer the hard plastic caps that come on the tanks over the soft silicone replacement caps because the hard caps are easier to pop off with just my thumbnail and don't stain with the juice color like the soft caps do.

Some people also use a paperclip or something to pre-punch the hole before they insert the tank in the atty.

If the tank caps aren't pre-punched, just insert the new tank into the cone before filling it, then pop off the cap and remove the little hanging chad that gets made when the atty spike punches through the cap. Then just fill the tank and snap the cap back on, and you're good to go.

Better yet, just get a Stardust or decent 510 clearomizer and be done with it.
The odds are that, sooner or later, you'll end up doing that anyway.

Thanks for all the tips. I stopped power dragging it like I did with analogs and that seems to have cleared it up for now. I have a tank and cortomizers on the way so hopefully they get here soon and I can really get down to business.

I am using the soft rubber cap now, but still leaking. Do i need to pre punch the rubber cap? But it only leak after a few refilling..

Maybe it's... Dual coils carto preferable. They do not have a leak.
