Just had one of those dumb moments

[bloodless2010]

I was refilling my goblin RTA and took it apart to clean it first, when I assembled most of it, I decided to fill the juice straight into the tank section (basically fully assembled but without the top part) because the bottom filling on the goblin RTA is a pain, the pressure from squeezing the bottle in the hole sucks it into the air shaft making it leak through the drip tip, so there me thinking it would be quicker by doing it this way.. I forgot one crucial part, the screw for the bottom fill! Doh! eliquid was pouring straight down the tank and out the hole, wasted about quarter of a 30ml bottle before I realised what had happened at least I have a lot to spare! Now I need to go wash my trousers.. Any of you guys have any silly/dumb moments when it comes to vaping?

I have spilled more than I have vaped

LOL. If you have`nt don that at least once, you are`nt a vapor!

I suggest - always fill per design. Also use a Metal needle tip bottle and squeeze slowly.
Air needs to pass the wick to clear the tank for liquid to fill.

When squeezing to hard, liquid rides over the air bubble and out the wick.


Orchid Tanks act the same if not careful<-----guess what I use

I once over filled my rta when I first got it, it had a deep well and I thought it would hold a lot..well when I put the drip tip back on and pressed the fire, by the time I lifted it up to my mouth it spat hot liquid on my lips. Pretty sure everyone's gone through that XD

1st time I filled a Kayfun, I tried to fill it like the Nautilus I had been using. Unscrewed the bottom, started pouring in the juice...

Been there....dropped a full liter of mixed on the floor. I couldn't use the 5 second rule either....

If you have issues with filling the goblin I suggest you make sure you have a needle tipped bottle. You want to fill while it is low and still warm. Doing this has prevented backflow out of the fill hole for me, works every time. My liquid is pretty thick.

Pouring out the drip drip might be a wicking issue, or too much pressure from blocking the fill hole from escaping air.

Not trying to sway from the topic, but hey I'd figure a possible solution might be good here.

The Goblin can be a breeze to fill, it took me some time to nail it down too.
