I had leaking on my protank2, until I began adjusting the voltage on my battery. I also found the flavor/brand of eliquid preforms differently with varying voltages. A vape shop in Little Rock gave me the hint to gradually increase my voltage when I first load a tank to best adjust the quality/quantity of vape. For example, once the tank is filled I vape on the lowest volt setting, then increase the battery volt setting with each vape til my device is at the perfect level. Not sure why this makes a difference in the 'leaking,' but it does!!

I started with the same setup. My noob mistakes were drawing too hard causing flooding & drawing too fast causing burnt wick. My solution was to press the button and then take a long slow draw. My son describes it as a pipe smoking or cigar smoking type draw. Short, quick draws like most do with cigarettes don't work very well.

Start with your voltage all the way down and work your way up to where it tastes good & produces vapor. Voltage will vary depending on the flavor, the resistance of the coil and the amount of gunk built up on the coil. Vaping is not as easy as smoking. It is fiddly but you can figure it out. Variable wattage helped me with part of the "fiddly" factor but I used my ego-C Twists for 5 months successfully before upgrading to a pair of iTaste VV3's. I'm cheap and I wasn't about to sink more money into this if I couldn't make it work.

Practice is the best advice and if you need to take a real smoke break in the beginning, don't beat yourself up over it.

Great tip!

I have been vaping recently, (2 months) and have found that the more you take stuff apart and put it back together, the quicker you will learn to troubleshoot what the problems are. This forum has been the main source of every random question possible that i have ever had, ur in good hands. Dont get frustrated!
