just clean the CT and the connector Dont.
Is anyone else getting gurgling/leaking with the new rebuildable part?
I can't figure out what I've done differently to everyone else - but each morning I'm finding a good few drops of liquid in the collection tank below the Ithaka in the JGG above the battery.
It's not getting into the battery - so it's doing it's job there.
But it then leaks out of the air hole and of course is gurgling.
I have no such problems with the r/nr setup with ceramic...
Any thoughts on what I might have missed?
Other than this leak - it's working good. A bit airy maybe - but the leaking has me a bit puzzled...

I'm running a micro coil with cotton and having an absolutely wonderful vape. Just absolutely wonderful. When your setting up your cotton, stuff the excess in the cup but leave a thin tail to run down the liquid feed grooves to prevent flooding. I only open the juice control a half turn. Doesn't need much.

I use cotton the last few days and I have to say that it works wonderful. I also made a research about cotton and I didnt find any bad about it if it doesnt get burned. I did that because penelope v3 doesnt have deep channels where wick goes down like penelope v2, so I had to do something about it. Cotton was the solution, because I wanted to keep liquid control on penelope v3

they are available Its. But vasilis is so typical with his work that doesnt want to put them on his site without photos. I told him that photos is not a priority but customers are. He agreed and I will send him some designs to put them as photos to his site so people will not get confused by only reading the description of the part they need, but they will be able to see that part too

Did that - found some burs in the CT around the edge of the hole - ground them off, working fine now. Seems the seal with the O ring was sometimes OK, and sometimes not.
Discovered something else too. Somewhere along the way I got a bigger transparent part for the tank section - it worked fine with the old ceramic setup. Though was hopeless with the new rebuildable part. The larger diameter of the bottom of the mouthpiece (around the coil) being much wider than the ceramic setup - was not allowing the juice to flow to the bottom of the tank! Worse - the more I opened the juice control, the less juice could get through. I guess the transparent part was ever so slightly tapered...
Anyway - all solved now.
Thanks...
