have had no leaks with these valley view vape pyrex carto tanks, absolutely love them. The iclear 30 is also a great tank, one of my favorites.

Let's see if we can fix what you got.

If it's leaking a lot of liquid when on it's side:

Did you screw the mouth piece back in place? Sounds dumb - but it's an easy thing to forget. Especially if you have to push firmly on the mouth piece to get it down in place first.

Depending on the type of this clearo, there will be a very thin o-ring that seals between the mouth piece and the clearo tube. Some times that o-ring can get away from you and get out of place. Either rolling down the mouth piece and ending up well below the point where the two pieces screw together. Or being stuck to the edge of tube at the top, and coming off and getting lost when you pull out mouth piece.

Check to see if you have the mouth piece screwed in place and also look to see if that o-ring is there and if it's out of place.

My mouthpiece just pushes in... I think... All seals look good

Is it full on leaking? or are you getting some liquid where the mouthpiece goes in? Plus, I'm pretty sure those tank's tips screw into the tank. I got a couple of those from different manufacturers, and I ended up having random bits of liquid in my mouth from all of them. That was mostly due to either overfilling or getting liquid where the mouthpiece comes into contact with the atomizer. I had one just like yours that would just leak though. The o-ring was still on the mouth piece. It was cheap, and I didn't bother to trouble shoot it. So I just got a cheap polyethylene carto-tank. Oh yeah, GDF!FYPM!
 
I use the ce4 with 4 long wicks non rebuldable version i used to use those vision rebuildable ones but after afew coil changes theyld like like BEEP. Anything with a gasket will leak eventually but with only one at the top its less likely to, unless you turn it upside down & go on a roller coaster then all bets are off. TRUST ME

Thanks all. I stopped back in to Modern Vapor on Milwaukee ave in Chicago and some guy replaced my tip and coil in the clearo. Seems better and the tank is a vivi nova as it turns out.

Anyone in Chicago? I would 100% recommend Modern Vapor as they're the coolest and most accommodating people I've met in retail in a long while.

I'm sorry Pilgrim, but you gets a DOH! for that one! We didn't even have the right device we were trying to fix! But if you ever get a CE4... lol

Seriously, Vivi Nova can be a little fussy like you found out. You have to keep all those parts in place and tightly screwed together or you can get leaking like you had. Just unscrewing the top cap to refill can unscrew the coil a bit and... You just need to make sure everything stays properly put together. When you refill check that the coil is tightly in place before you do anything else.

A good vape shop can be a newbie's best friend. You is fortunate you have one.
