Juice in your lap or on table/desk

[StacyInOkla]

This is my first week with a Pro Tank. So far I love everything about it except filling it. One night I'm sitting in my comfy chair relaxing after a long day. I go to fill my tank and realize I have juice all over my hand. Cue 30 second freak out thinking my new tank is leaking. Upon looking closer I realize I accidentally got juice down the center hole. Fast forward to tonight when I get the bright idea to stick a Q-Tip through the mouth piece all the way to the end of the center hole before I fill it.
I was able to fill my tank all the way without getting juice on my hand or in my lap. Plus I was able to use the dry end to clean up the threads before screwing the base back on. I had a "why didn't I think of that sooner" moment and had to share it with people who would understand Everyone in my house end up with glazed eyes when I start talking about vape stuff, including my husband who vapes lol. As long as his gear works he's happy.

If it works for you... that's all that matters. We all perceive things differently... so it's OK if no one gets it.

Aww man or should I say woman, That stinks, I did my first stupid thing today, trying to figure out why my clearomizer wasn't working right, i tok it off the battery and took the mouth piece out, then i was looking at the bottom, i ended up tipping it over upside down and guess what, yelp juice all over the floor, my shoes, feet ( had on flip flops) I bet I won't do that again, Or I hope I won't first day vaping so yeah should known something go wrong lol.... I think my clearomizer doesn't like thick watermelon juice. my home made strawberry n cream has been vaping just fine every since I changed the juice out nd cleaned it well

I use needle tip bottles to fill my tanks and clearo's. I got tired of the protank slosh over

You should be very proud you "invented" the QTip plug so quickly - just last night I was in another thread, and someone kept filling the air tube -- and QTip was the pro's advice. At least 3 people were like "that's a great way to do it!".

Yes, a q-tip for the wider mouth pieces and a small pipe cleaner for the narrow ones.
A normal pipe cleaner can be broken into thirds. Then you place it in the tube so it blocks it and bend the free end around.
Viola! You don't even have to hold it in place!

I love that "Okie" engineering.

I love that "Okie" engineering.

Thanks , since moving here I've come across some "Okie" engineering that make me wonder how the person is still alive

I thought q-tips were mandatory parts for protanks. LOL, well q tips or pipe cleaners or a twisted bit of tissue, a thick shoelace... Yeah I get creative if I don't have a q-tip handy, but SOMETHING is going in that hole before I fill a protank.

here's another cheap easy fix:



found these at the neighborhood michael's craft store, they're everywhere. just a couple bux for a pack and they fit perfectly on all the juice bottles I have. they're made for precision applying glue I guess but it makes filling up a lot of tanks so much easier. and a lot better flow than the needle tips I have. found these when I was desperate to fill a z atty when I got my first good coil on and lost the syringe!! won't exactly fit inside a z atty fill hole but if you press it up against the hole, it fills up cleanly.
