so i came home tonight to notice a couple of my stardusts leaking as well as a T3. both were leaking in the same area. If you look underneath theres this part that almost looks like you could put a screw driver in it to tighten it or loosen it. I am assuming that repeated use and the screwing on and off the ego batteries has loosened this part. can i just give it a 1/4 turn or something? if so are these rightey tighty/ lefty loosey or reverse thread ?

how will adding a wick help? once it soaks it wont soak more unless i vape on it. Just sitting it would still leak i believe. No, they have been inside all day. My house has central heat and air(though no air atm due to winter)

Sometimes the wick doesn't fill the slots completely and there will be an ever so slight gap between the wick and silicone cap allowing juice to leak. Adding a wick will fill any gap, and help prevent leaks. However, with too much wick, it slows the wicking and you may get dry/burnt hits,
