eGo leaking like an N.Korean submarine

[LichLord]

So I just upgraded from a 501 to an eGo. I have the model with a juice tank and I think it's called a "type B" atty?

The problem is once the juice in the tank goes a little below the half way line (and seeing as how it slopes to a point, that's probably more like the 2/3 line) just beyond the lip of the atty, this think starts leaking really bad. Like I pick it up and my hand is covered in juice bad. Whatever happens at that point also seems to effect the tank, as when I take a drag off the thing it sucks juice up into the part the vapor is supposed to go through eventually ending up in mouth

Is this a known issue, and does anyone know how to fix it?

Do they have subs now?

 

[LichLord]

I think you're focusing on the wrong part of the title, but since you asked yes. They have one of if not the largest sub force in the world. I doubt they have anything like nuclear powered attack subs up to U.S. Navy specs but the crap they have they have a whole lot of.

Sounds like you have an ego t. Most likely you don't have either your tank lid correctly clicked on or more likely your tank is not fully inserted in the atty. Other than that there is no reason for it to leak. Is the tank all plastic ?

 

[LichLord]

Yes, all plastic. As for it not being done correctly, that's possible I suppose but honestly I can't see any way to do it differently.

Make sure IRS pushed all the way in there should be no ridge showing on the tank. It takes a fairly firm push to get it all the way in

I have the same problems with the type b, type a's were not leaking... weird stuff. didnt stop me from getting another type b (and LR) last night tho thing works great, except for the 1/2tank leak blues.

I have never taken the bottom cap off to fill (have filled through the puncture hole, and tried three diff tanks

Look down the needleplate wick hole with a flashlight and make sure the wick is still in its proper place. They have been known to get pushed down into the atomizer. Is the taste okay prior to the leak?

Also puffing too hard and fast on it can suck too much juice down.

Sorry your having a leaking problem with your type B tank system LichLord. I have to agree with Justice, it sounds like the cart wasn't in all the way. I had that happen to me with one of the type A tank atty & cart. I didn't realize it wasn't in all the way until juice had leaked in my purse.

I've had my Mega (Type B) Tank atty and cart since Monday and I am loving it. I just ordered the LR one from Liberty-Flights, but they only have the black carts. I like to see how much liquid is left in the cart. The first one came from Totally Wicked and one cart came with the atty. I am counting on the LR Tank type B to be as good or better than the reg. type B Tank atty.
