Brand New to Vaping - Hi !! & a bit of help please

[Medazzaland]

Morning all

Newbie from Derbys

Been thinking of trying a vape for sometime and yesterday purchased a multivape sabre kit

All seemed very simple but can't seem to understand the tank / liquid filling bit . On the online videos the 'tank' seems to be glass whilst my kit is all metal and hardly holds any liquid ( that came with kit) it's leaking and I must be doing something wrong ?

All the videos I've seen show a chamber but my it didn't have this ?
Total novice so any advice welcom. I'm sure there are better kits but trying out for now

Is this the kit?

Yes Shawn - thank you for the reply.

Good morning and welcome.
From what I see yours may not have a glass tank, it looks to be stainless steel. Just speculating from the photos of the kit. Reminds me of my first EGO w/the EVOD tank. Do you have any pics of your kit?

It's exactly the kit on Shawns link above. The kit breaks down into battery - mouth piece , clearomiser (!!?) and there's also a replacement coil

I am filling down the side ( per what I've seen ) but looks to be a very small tank compared the ' glass' versions I've seen listed under same name.

I am carefully filling but then when I screw back together it's leaking a bit

 

[Medazzaland]

The instructions are a bit light on detail, and perhaps underestimate my lack of knowledge . Simple things like do you need to press button when using etc

 

[Tonee N]

Check the coil to see if it's seated. I know they are small tanks and remember over filling then screwing the base on that would make mine leak.
Any thoughts Shawn?

Thanks Tonee.

On the glass tank versions I've seen it looks like they would take a liquid refill bottle easily . On mine ( in the pic / link from Shawn) I'm unclear how much is enough ? It's hard to see inside the tank and nothing in instruction etc
I'm effectively filling from bottom ( mouthpiece away from me) and squeezing liquid down side of the column in the centre. Then screwing back up.
To use I am pressing battery and with mixed results ' vaping'

I remember getting vapor from mine but not like the more powerful setups I have now. My memory isn't what it used to be (I move to Egypt, NV/US) must be all the sand.[emoji3]. I'm sure your battery is charged and nothings loose. Are you not getting any vapor or does it seem like it's very weak vape?

Welcome.
You are in the UK.
Multicig is a UK brand. They have sold you an eGo battery and a version of the Aspire ETS clearomiser. I'll check out what we can help you with and come back.

 

[djsvapour]

OK. First, some quick advice.
They sell the BDC replacement coils for your device. When the time comes you should replace them with BVC coils (seemingly not available from Multivape). I can find a UK shop for those.
iVapour used to specialise in these.
Amazon will sell them. Just don't accidentally buy the wrong ones.

Your tank is nearly all metal. Turn it upside down, unscrew the base and there'll be just enough space to squeeze in liquid down the side. You should check the coil is properly in the base.
The Aspire K1 is similar (only glass and a bit smaller) and there should be videos that show and tell for people.

Rather weirdly, I just vacuumed my car and found the original Multicig sales leaflet from the day Sainsbury started selling them. They jumped on the cig-a-like bandwagon hoping to beat E-Lites, Skycig and 10 motives. Those early products were shamefully poor and absurdly overpriced. E-Lites were the kings of the rip-off (one cartomizer for £4/$6) so I guess Multi should be given some credit for at least trying.
Sadly, looking back, I do remember suffering dreadful gurgles/floods/leaks with the ETS clearomizer.
If you have no joy getting it to vape, there's other small tanks (clearos) you might be able to find.
Homebargains sell disposable CE4 (808 vape) for 99p and liquids too.
B&M stores also sell 808 vape stuff.
The Range sells Vapourlites and Kik hardware and liquids.
If all my vaping hardware was lost tomorrow and all I had was a battery, I'd probably order an Aspire K1 clearomizer over the internet and get some Vapourlites or 808 vape liquid from a 'bargain' store.
You certainly don't want to shop more at Multicig. £4.99 liquids is a joke and if their Sabre kit is the best they can offer with a known 'problem' tank then they are demonstrably only in it for your money.

I will have a look in my box at home when I get back from holiday. There might be some stuff needing a home.

Sorry... fell asleep... AR/US being in a slightly different time zone.

Everything I'm reading is accurate and what I would have suggested...

BVC v. BDC... check
Make sure the coil is properly screwed down... check
Get a different tank:
If you've invested in coils, the ET-S, if not, consider a Nautilus Mini kit or ProTank Mini.

I have just been reading online (and as a result deleted my post) and apparently this leaking issue, is an issue for many many people who purchased the aspire et-s..

Someone said fast tech is even selling o-rings for them, to fix the leaking issue.

From the sound of it, might be a better investment for him to get either the Kanger t3s, or the evod tank.. it seems aspire need a fix.

(The nautilus mini won't fit on his battery without overhang)

Or-rings that fit the et-s

Welcome and glad you joined. Wish I can help more but not a tank user. Might try to fill tank approximately half way and see if this helps (worth a try).
