Help with Uwell Crown

[SJClouds]

Hey so I bought the uwell crown about 2 weeks ago and since this is a new tank to me and my last tank was the subtank mini, I don't understand why there is juice leaking from my air holes area. It's not actually leaking from the holes but when I turn the bottom part to close the holes, there is juice leaking hope that makes sense. I don't understand why I just put in a new coil 3 days ago and I primed it good but it just keeps leaking. It's getting to the point where I just want to stop using it and look for a new tank. The coil I'm using now is the .25 one it comes with and right now I don't have any new ones until I can get paid and buy new ones. Anyone know why it keeps leaking? Should I try and change the o rings and see if that will help?

It's tricky to fill, close air holes fill tank turn upside down open air holes flip upright and vape

So you bought the original Crown tank , OK, you are right the O rings on that one are pretty easy to lose so make sure they are all in place , airflow should be closed when filling .

If you fill it from the bottom instead of the top it tends to stop leakage issues but the tank should not leak regardless if you top fill or bottom fill .

I know the optional RBA head that you can buy for the tank has to be wicked in a certain way because that one will leak if not wicked correctly .

Is this an authentic Crown or a cloned version , the clones on E BAY can be had for around $17.00 and many B&M's actually sell the clones as authentic .

Ya I'm going to change the o rings the next time I wash out the tank and change the coil to see if that helps. I usually fill it from the top but I'll try and fill it from the bottom and see if that will do anything. How I wicked it was I just filled the tank with juice and screwed on the bottom with the coil and let it sit for almost 3 hours before I took a hit. I started from 30w and moved up to 60w where I am vaping it now. It was fine for the first day or two but now it's leaking a little bit and I always have to clean it which is annoying. I'm not sure if it's authentic or not I bought it from myfreedomsmokes.com I hope it's not a clone.

Condensation does form in the base, which is normal.

MFS is a good outfit , i would bet it's an authentic for sure . I have noticed if you slightly overfill you can have leakage , make sure you don't do that , fill it to 85% when replacing a coil and leave the juice flow closed while the tank sits before using it .

Make sure you manually prime the coil before inserting it into the base also , the Orings are transparent , one should be on each side of the glass tank . They are easy to overlook , one usually sticks to the edge of the glass tank .

Mine doesn't leak but it weeps a little around the air flow ring. Doesn't matter how I fill it, since I got it, it weeps. But it can sit for days without use and the weeping is minimal. I think it's normal with the Crown. Weeping is normal with a lot of tanks and something you learn to accept and love with.

If it's leaking worse than general weeping then take the advice above and check your orings.
