My Eliquid is leaking....

[ladyraj]

I recently purchased some new liquid that has the propensity to leak out of my PVs and dirty up the contacts. I went thru the normal procedures to assess the problem (different PV, different atty/same PV, same atty, different juice) and have concluded my new juice is simply too juicy!

I've read that glycerin could be added as a thickening agent so the question becomes:
1) What type of glycerin, and
2) Where can I get it?

Your help would be greatly appreciated because this is 50 mls of great flavored butterscotch!

I know from experience that some versions of the pyramid tea bag mods for the cartridges can cause leakage. If you're using that, consider returning to the oem filler for the present. If not, there are many brands of glycerin available. You'll want one that is USP rated (for human consumption). Here's a popular vegetable glycerin USP 100% pure, that is made from vegetables rather than animal fat, that can be used to thicken your juice:
