Leaking Clearomizer?

[daesania]

I purchased a Kanger EVOD for my eGo battery but i'm having some issues. I've only used a DSE 901 before this, so i'm still fairly new to all of this. The issue i'm having is that a few times a day as i'm taking a hit from the ecig, it leaks liquid into my mouth. Not much, a drop or two, but obviously not what i'd like.

Is this normal for usage or am I doing something wrong perhaps? Its not leaking from the outside, only the inside.

To add a few bits of info, this is happening regardless if the liquid is full or low (I fill up at about 1/3rd). Should I be puffing/blowing the remaining vape that lingers in the tube after a hit?

The EVOD is a pain to fill up. If any liquid gets down the center shafts, it's coming up in your mouth.

Is this what is happening to you?

I've taken this advice from others much more versed in all of this than I am and it has worked marvelously.
Every time I refill my evod I roll a tissue or paper towel up small enough to insert it in the drip tip as far as I can. Then I unscrew the base and blow through the part that connects to the battery. A little juice always comes dripping out. Then I screw the base back on, take out the tissue and attach to the battery. Since I started doing this I haven't had a single leak!
Don't know if this will work for you but it's worth a try.

Yeah, its getting into the mouth, but its happening at various times, even hours after i filled up. I've been careful to fill up, i put the tip against the side and let the liquid flow down the sides of the tank.

Anyone?

Your carto might have too much liquid.

It's not a carto. Did you try using another head? That shouldn't be happening all the time.

I have some clearos that always seem to do this, and some that never do. I've had the best results with a Kanger T2. Been meaning to try the Evod, but haven't got around to it yet. This is good feedback.

Hmm... directly after filling, take the clearomizer and blow through the mouthpiece with a white napkin directly underneath. Did juice come out initially, then stop? If so, maybe it is your filling technique.

Then try putting it back on the battery and taking a couple pulls; take it off battery again and blow through onto a napkin. If more juice comes out... it may be your clearomizer.

Hope you figure it out.

Do you have problems with it gurgling when you take a pull? If its gurgling alot when you draw it is likely flooding and may need head/wick adjustments. If its not gurgling/flooding and its wicking properly you may try taking the white silicon cup that sits on the shaft on/near the wick and reverse it, concave (cupped) side up, then reassemble. This could possibly fix head/tube sealing issues.

I agree about the Kanger T2, it is my favorite...I have multiples and they are problem free.

Ok, fully cleaned the whole thing out, blew out all the holes everywhere, no leaks yet today, but I do have a bit of gurgling/popping sounds now.
