Hiii everyone :)

I have penelope which is wicked coiled and ready to vape res on 2.2, primed with e juice and fires up well on my provari mini. Attach the driping head and vapes well. Now as soon as I put the tank body on and fill it up with ejuice, all I get is no pull at all provari is firing no errors, and it starts leaking from 510 connection at bottom.

Anyone pleaseeeeeeeeee

If the Penelope is flat bottom and covering the connection, it's probably blocking airflow.

Take the tank off the mod and take a pull. If its breathing ok off the provari, you may just need a short 510 extender to create some space between the tank and the mod.

I don't have my Penelope yet, but with Ody you can adjust the centre post so that the connection doesn't screw down as far and leaves a small space to allow air flow.

Think i've sussed it , Just rewicked mine and noticed it was leaking even with the mouth piece all the way in.
The problem is when you cut the wick it may become frayed and a bit thinner if your not careful.
What i did was cut two pieces about an inch long and put them in ether side making sure i kept them pushed in while screwing the locking ring back on.
Job done works a treat.
Hope that helps.

I got my Penelope Monday. I'm on my second coil and it's great!!! However, while this is my first rebuildable, I have done lots of research. So, I'm experimenting a bit and not really using the stock wick and coil set up. I haven't experienced any of the problems you have.

You have enough posts now. I suggest you try posting in the GG forum here. You'll find a lot more experienced users and Imeo (the maker of the GG) is fairly active there.

On Provari you dont have to use a 510 extender! you just have to screw the center pin a bit more out!

Between the penelope and the provari ther have to be a gab of 0,5 - 1mm. than it works perfectly!
I like penelope it vapes so much :)

That looks great. On a quest to find the right rebuildable now.I'll have to add this to the list to research.

Make sure that you bottom conntion has the O-Ring and screw it flush, and if you are crewing the top on make sure you hold the control because the new oring is tight and it can turn the control up when you screw in in
