Leaking??

[Carson Daley]

Okay I just got my vape, kanger sub box mini with a playboy vixen mini and my friend who I bought it from filled it for me with her juice (3nic). Everything was fine until I fell asleep last night and woke up to a pillow case that smells exactly like the juice, but there was no leak it wasn't wet at all? So my question is can the smell of your juice make cloth of pillow cases and others smell with out leaking at all.

(I vape before I sleep and fell asleep before I could get up and put it on my desk)

I found a way to pretty much get rid of the odor issue. I do DIY and found I prefer a very small amount of flavor. There are two unexpected benefits. Bystanders are much less likely to notice any odor, a plus at work, and if liquid gets on my clothes I don't reek. I consider most commercial e liquid to be way way over flavored. You can reduce the odor of your commercial liquid by cutting it with unflavored DIY with the same amounts of everything except flavoring. I've diluted commercial liquid 25-75 and still get good flavor. My DIY currently uses 1% flavoring.

Thanks for the response but my question is though can the smell of the juice that's already In the tank make things on the outside of the tank smell like the juice. Basically can the smell leak out on its own without any liquid spilling?

There's always a wet wick full of juice that's open to the air inside your tank through the chimney/drip tip and air holes on the bottom. Some juice just has a stronger smell. I have a strawberries and cream juice that I can always smell from far away even though the tank is definitely not leaking.

Of course, your tank may be leaking. I always stand my tanks upright when I'm not using them just to be safe.

I hope you didn't smoke cigarettes the same way...

Just yesterday I purchased a second tank because I finally found a flavor other than tobacco I liked. When I was talking with my Vape Shop guy he also suggested storing tanks in the upright position. I fell asleep with my MOD on the nightstand on a napkin and no leak but I took a small piece of wood and drilled a hole in it to store the second tank when not in use.

No never slept with cigarettes but would the fabric around it be wet with the spilled juice

In my opinion the liquid will dry up if it is not a major amount. I was using a napkin while filling a tank yesterday and while reading this I noticed I left it with my liquids so I checked it. Yesterday it had an oily feeling but not today.

Maybe look into a tank from an established make, not a cig-a-like firm reinventing themselves as something else.

Maybe the "world's first spiral 0.1ohm dual-core atomizer" and "triangle air-flow technology" is just... well... hype?
