well nojust double checkd it, it is an YFTK one
I can only recommend that you read this thread and watch the video--lots of good tips on how to make your Tripod work well. Good luck.
Ok I think I need some help. Even if it takes a few hours, my tripod starts to accumulate juice on the airflow and it starts to leak. My Tripod is a Clone that I bought on Fasttech and I'm beginning to question if there is something wrong with the machinning of it. Here are some points:
- Already tried with using more and less cotton
- Using the Kayfun wicking technique where I create those spaces so the cotton doesn't rest on the airflow hole(the same way described on one of the first posts of this thread)
- I never open to refill without closing the juice flow control
- When vaping I always open the juice flow control the least possible(just a small opening)
- When I take the tank section off there's always juice on the screws, on the well and on the reducer on top of the tank
Here is a photo of the current build and wicking that I could get to take longer to leak:
I wonder if it has something to do with the top cap not being tight enough or if the tank section isn't perfectly fitted to the deck causing juice to go inside even with the juice flow control closed.
If somebody could help me or have some thoughts I'd appreciate it!
Thank you
Your wicking looks a hell of a lot better than mine did. My guess is an o-ring or a glass seal causing your problems.
Here's a picture of the parts, o-rings and seals
If you take off the top cap and drain your juice. Take the tank section off the deck. Then unscrew the fill port. This gives you access to the tank section. The glass is firmly held on by seals. Once the glass is off - replace the glass seals with spares. Also replace the fill port o-rings with spares.
It's a PITA, but it should hopefully solve the problem
Okay, so I think we're making progress. Literally changed every possible o-ring with spares. Vaping it for a few hours, went through 3 refills and...now signs of potential leaking!
One thing I noticed immediately was the top cap, now it is MUCH harder to turn. Before, the top cap was looser than the tank section to spin. I didn't even had to hold the tank to spin and pull out the top cap, now I have to hold everything firmly so I can move the top cap to pop it out. I'll see how it goes from now and will post and update tomorrow... Thank you so much!

I knew that Ange would come up with a solution. I only took mine apart, washed it, lubed every o-ring and put it back in the box. Some day soon I'm going to throw a build on it. I hope.
Good luck, Skolta, and keep us posted.
