My Squape leaks like a sieve.

[BoomerFZ1]

I purchased a squape clone and while it works great, when I unpend it to refill or mess with the coil/wick, it leaks like crazy out of the top. Is there supposed to be an O-ring or something where the chimney screws into the tank (I'm guessing that the culprit) or am I just not tightening it down enough? I didn't see an O-ring and I don't have one that fits with the spares that were provided. Has anyone else experienced this?

First, make sure there are o rings between the metal and glass or plastic tank. On many of the clones, the factory didn't put them in because they are a pain in the ..... There are 2 thin grooves they go into. One is just above the windows, and the other just below the windows.

And yes, some were leaking where the chimney screws in, but neither of mine do. An o ring or teflon tape may fix that.

Teflon tape...that might just work. I'm going to do some testing with water and see how I can resolve this. Thanks roxynoodle.

I haven't had a problem with my Squape R clone leaking where the window is. I did have it leak out of the air hole all over my new ipv mini T_T but ut was due to not enough wick ¬_¬
