Hello all I am a new member and relatively new to vaping.

I started vaping with a N-Joy Gold, Menthol, disposable. I then went to a smoke shop and made the mistake of buying a Blu kit. It helped me realize vaping could work for me, but I hated it due to the usual reasons. I now am a pretty happy user of an emini.

I do have a question about the emini though. I read most of the giant emini thread, and tried searching but couldn't find an answer to my question. Here it is...

I love my emini, but I started having some leakage/seepage issues after the first couple of days. Today, I just received a follow up order with some new Ovale emini tanks. Right away I noticed that the new tanks seem to fit much more snugly than the original tanks. Another difference is that the new tanks don't have a removable cap with clips on the sides. The three original tanks from the kit do have a removable cap.

Did they redesign these tanks at some point? The new ones seem vastly superior to the kit tanks. No leaks since swithching to the new tanks.

Thanks

WELCOME TO ECF AZ !

Lots of nice, friendly folks here to help, and support ya.

Cant really speak of the emini...but I do have the eRoll.
Have not had any leaking issues with it yet.
I do make sure to clean out the cone and the edge of the tanks when refilling.
Also, I use a needle tip on my refilling bottle so I don't have to take the cap off.

Now, my Ego-C...same Cartridge-Cone-Attomizer setup...
Have had little leaks...usually cartridge not pused in fully,
or cap not on fully. They came with a 'hard' plastic cap...
a little more pron to leaking. They also sell a 'silcone' soft one
that had the refill hole already punched...no leaks at all.
I bought a 10 pack for a couple of bucks...a years worth.
But I havent seen the 'soft' one for my eRoll...yet.

Glad you joined us...Vape well, my Friend ! :vapor:

I've got an eRoll too, and I don't think they're any diff than the emini--no leakage on mine, but you might be experiencing condensation getting forced out of the cone and tank areas.

This happens to me fairly regularly, usually when I refill and replace the tank. I remember reading somewhere on the forums that someone had the same issue and they also determined that it was just condensation because the liquid didn't smell as strong as if it was out of the bottle. I checked mine and yep, smelled like the juice but not as strong.

I just wipe it down when it happens and it usually stays dry until I refill again.

Hmm...mine are like the one on the left. I can see where it might make a difference in terms of the 'wicking' action (forcing liquid up and out), but I still wonder if what you're experiencing is just condensation.

It should be under warranty--do you think you can get a replacement? I know one of my batt's was weird so I got an over-the-counter swap where I bought mine.
