Have had no leaking with mine,dont forget guys with each new cartos there is always a learning curve. Fill upside down slowly with syringe, and have to get that top seal on just right after filling. This is only way ive had a dry hit. I think if it isnt lined up perfect it causes a vacuum that wont allow it to wick properly. Ive had this happen twice after refills. Just line it up again and wicks awesome with awesome flavor using 50/50 on my 4th refill and it just keeps working better and better !

I'm not giving up hope...I really like these things.

so how am i supposed to fill this? am i correct in assuming I am supposed to hold the carto upside down with the battery end towards the sky, stick the needle in the fill hole and fill until its full upside down? then what, just pull the syringe out and flip it over and put the stopper in and then the mouthpiece?

I tried filling tilted sideways, its pretty good till it did the saphire thing and leaked all over me.

All righty I just filled mine for the second time and it started leaking but I think I might know why, I don't think it has to do with a vacume it has to do with pressure from filling, the air in the tube has to go somewhere. So while it was leaking I reinserted the needle and sucked some back out and it quit leaking so we might want to fill slowly to allow the pressure to escape around the wicks or threw the vent hole on the other side of the fill hole not sure which. This might be why some are gitting leaking in different places.what do ya'll think?

Got mine in today's mail. Filled it w/ 100% vg. Nasty taste at first, but got better by 1/4th the way through. Sat it down to eat & afterwards, I found that another 1/4th had leaked out into my pv holder. I cleaned up the mess & it hasn't leaked since.

BUT... it's burning through juice like mad, and I know I'm not vaping any more than usual. Has anyone else noticed increased juice consumption?

Yes. They do go through juice pretty fast. Then again, they vape like mad. More vapor = more juice.

so you got it today like me, and it leaked, but since it hasnt leaked since everything is good? i'm afraid to set the thing down, i can imagine what my desk is going to look like tomorrow morning when i get up. I don't know about the rest of you, but i can't have the thing leaking in my pocket at work or on my desk at work. I been doing this for almost 2 1/2 years and this is the first cartomizer/atomizer that has ever just straight out leaked all the juice out, even the sapphire when it flooded would leak out, but not just sitting upright on a desk not being touched. And it ain't like these things are cheap. The stone leaked but at least you could do something about that. not sure what can be done about this without taking it apart. not to mention i could fill 10 vison giants in the time it takes to fill one of these.
