Take it apart: unscrew the bottom and top to remove the clear tank. Then take off the top (nipple with tiny hole). Unscrew the coil tower from the base. Rinse it all off and blow through the pieces to dry them. Then re-assemble. Don't push the nipple cap down hard. Let the top metal part with the drip tip push it down to create a good seal. Don't fill above the bottom edge of the nipple cap or it will flood again. Good luck!

The simple fix is right here in post 13...

If it's the top coil iClear 30 then just unscrew it from the MVP, put a piece of paper towel under the 510 pin and blow into it a few times and it should shoot any liquid inside the center tube out the 510 connection. If it is the 30b then tip it upside down and do the same thing. You can also take the juice out of the tank, take off the rubber piece that covers the coils and then do what I advised above. It will do the same thing.

Thank you, I will try this now. Maybe I should invest in a back up MVP for situations like this :facepalm:
It's always good to have a backup. With cigarettes, if something went wrong, you could have a new pack and a new lighter in your hand in a few minutes. Not so with e-cigarettes. ;)

It's not the MVP, it's the iClear. I have quite a few of those clearos and flooding is a common problem when over-filling. You'll get through this. :)

I agree, sounds like you need to invest in another tank or 2. Personally I have 4 soon to be 5 tanks because I like to go back and forth between flavors but it also helps if you run into problems too

Just wanted to point out that when your done Vapeing what's left in your iclear30 take it completely apart including the rubber grommet, and rinse under warm water, once dry put back together and dry burn the coil without grommet on top, then place grommet back on fill and Vape away, u should do this every other refill.

Hope u also have a few spare coils.

Heartily endorse this. I clean and dry burn all my coils every few tanks. Makes them last 3 times as long.

Rubber grommet is a much better description than nipple cap. :blink::laugh:

I'm very glad you got your issue fixed. You should know, just in case, that the MVP is the battery, and it is independent of the tank. The iClear30 often comes with the MVP, but you're not limited to that tank. There are several bottom coil tanks which might be a little more straightforward. The coil heads ( I think this is what you mean when you say "atty") is just a small unit that screws in to the bottom of your tank. Look around, read some reviews, or watch some youtube videos. Your issue will seem like a tiny little blip once you get more experience/information under your belt. :) Happy Vaping

Also you will get condensation draining down the mouthpiece to that rubber thingy. Don't panic if a little hot juice pops up into your mouth. Eventually it can build up to the point that it drains down to the bottom. That is why people were telling you to blow through one end or the other. Q-tips come in handy and paper towels.
