eGo T (Tank) Type B leaking

[Caseyjp]

Do you have another b tank? Its possible that the spike in your unit is malformed allowing juice to slide on down. I have 4 LR 'b' tanks and have had NO issues other than a cracked plastic cap leak...resolved by going to the silicone caps. If that hollow tube is imperfect, allowing airflow beyond design spec, its gonna go gusher every time.

Oh and the "line up the airflow" has nothing to do with leakage, and as far as I can tell, it affects the draw almost zilch. You'll get more 'draw' by yanking the inner filter in the mouthpiece than not lining things up. That was a solution for draw problems on the old 'a' tanks, but on the "b" no matter how the mouthpiece sits, the draw seems just fine.

You mean the cart tank? I have 2 atomizers and they both leak using the same cart (tank). I have just switched to a new cart and hope they work better..

Btw, does anyone has eGo T Type B rubber caps for sell? I read from forum that it prevents leaks.

 

[DJEvan]

i only got type a... but on the other hand, i got the type a Atty too =P

 

[jimoo]

Oh! Are you selling them?

I think is heng suay..Everything it leaks and u refill it, do u blow out the excess juice on ur atty from the battery end? If yes, try washing the atty and see if it continues to leak..If yes then go get a replacement atty..They will send it to you FOC via airmail(Risky nowadays).

Happens to my fren whose type B atty sort of leaks from day 1 until he got his replacement..Another one nv had a leak before..One more just got it's 1st leak after a few weeks using it..

I just bought the overflow prevention cap (those rubber kind) from HC as some people mentioned it solved their leaking problems. Although I am enjoying vaping now, the leaking is really bugging me quite abit...

Does HC send replacements without question?

They will just send but they will send it thru normal airmail..All u need to do after that is to mail back your faulty atty and just indicate the fault & from what order no while ordering for the replacement and also rem to choose western union as payment..

Ya..

How long does it take for the atomizer to dry up if I soak it in hot water?

 

[razenex]

best to leave it for 24 hours to let it air dry.

Just a little update. I found that if I fill my carts with 0.5ml, they won't leak. Seems like filling too much juice in the carts makes the wick too much to handle. Seems like the juice is continuously flowing down the wick if I fill too much.. That does not bother me too much cuz I vape like less than an hour during the day, and at night I constantly vape for like an hour before I call it a day.

Sounds like the atty wick is too low..

Anyway, u receive those carts by mail already?

 

[jimoo]

Yep receive the black carts already, thanks!

I have tried to adjust the wick to position it so that it is aligned to the bottom part of the metal needle but still leaking..

Isn't there anti-leaking caps for egos? I think that would do the trick, I've had a 510 before and it loved to do that to me.

 

[jimoo]

Ya i've order the caps. Will try it out when it comes. Current solution is to fill it up 1/3rd of juice to keep them from leaking.
