You need to get the correct strength and sometime it is due to dryness on the throat and noted that if you are Vaping alot, it is important that you must drink 8 glass of water a day.

yea jameth. i get what you mean by having the liquid fall out more if it's vertical. so far no leakage problems with putting it mouthpiece up.

just vaped again. still the same thing. throat getting worse. it's very strange because my first vape was an amazing feeling. till about maybe the 50th puff. then this thing started to happen on the way home yesterday =(

it's just really tough to rely on vaping to curb my analog craving now. everytime i vape i'm praying for a nice smooth drag but it's usually just "bleh".

I agree with zeroi. I used to think it's the atomizer's problem for scalding my tongue before. But after trying out some 0 nic liquid from junyap, it's really the level of nic (I felt sorry for all the atomizers I murdered haha). When I just started I tarik directly to my lungs and my throat keep getting a dry and painful feeling, some more I vaping 16-24 mg nic that time. Then I start drawing with my mouth first then tarik, then my tongue kenna. After that I switched to 11mg nic, then everything went smoothly already

I might have found ONE consistency on when my tank has juice on the outside of it. Today, every time I pulled it out it was covered in juice. I wiped it down, put it back in and in 5 minutes pull it out to check it and its covered in juice again. It had been a week since I had cleaned the atomizer so I rinsed it in scalding hot water and did a dry burn. I put juice in the tank and tried vaping and it took a few drags to get it going. I pulled it out to check it. The outside was dry BUT the juice was almost gone! I put a few more drops in and since then every time I check it its dry.

The only thing I can think of is that it gets so clogged and full that it has nowhere to go but outside of the tank. Thats my opinion so far anyway. If anyone has different theories I would love to hear them.

ETA ...I forgot the "consistent" part.

I had done this once before. It started getting juice all over the outside and wasn't vaping very well and I cleaned it and the outside stayed dry for awhile. So, I am thinking that might be it. I guess I'll find out the next time I clean it when it starts getting juice all over it again.

OK, I have just experienced this same thing. Again this afternoon I started getting juice all over the outside of my tank. It wasn't going through to the battery though. I would wipe it off, put it back in, pull it out after a couple vapes and juice would be all over it. I didn't want to have to clean and dry burn again so soon but finally I did it. Completely dry when I pull it out now.

I hate having to do that b/c at least 1/4-1/8 of the juice disappears into the coil? everytime I refill it after cleaning. It seems like kind of a waste of juice. But if it was leaking out around the tank anyway I guess I'm breaking even. So far, that is how I am fixing the leaking onto my tank. I'll post again if something changes.

(I know this is the SG thread. I hope it's OK that I responded to it)

Hello all, my ego-T was fine but suddenly started leaking while I was driving. I think I finally know why. I realised that whenever I am driving, I tend to suck the ego-T harder than normal. And when I do that, it causes the ego-T to leak. I experimented with it at home and I can quite confirm this problem of sucking too hard will cause leakage. Try it!

Looks like blowjob technique also contributed to the leaks.....

I personally feel that the Ego standard is the safest bet and cheaper also.
Just get the std, switch to drip or use clearomizer. That's the way to go. my 2 cents.

I hoot tank atty and carts already..Now get 1 box of clearo to test water..If gd den order a few more..

Just received my 1000mAh Ego-T battery and using a new Ego-T atty with new cart.
Test run today. So far so good as expected. Waiting for refill results cos that's when the leaks start.

Based on the trouble-shooting video provided, I did not fully tighten the atty to the battery; only lightly.
See how it goes. Watch this space.
