I want to apolozie straight away if I'm posting this in the wrong place, being a new forum member (as well as new vaper) I thought this was the best place. I've been experimenting with disposable e-cigarettes for a few weeks and finally have picked up a couple of non-disposable systems. The first ws the Titan Tank from TW (compact kit). I really enjoyed it and really didn't encounter much in teh way of leaking tanks (granted, I haven't had it all that long). This week I happened to be in Eugene, OR on business and stopped by a vape shop there (which brings me to my question).
At the shop I picked up a Kgo kit that included clearomizers, I really enjoy the device and running it with the clearomizer- the only thing is it appears I may be leaking some. The guy at the shop actually filled the clearomizer for me (I'm not mentioning the shop's name just to be careful, though I will say service was EXCELLENT! If someone let's me know it's ok I would be happy to name the shop.
Anyway, as I was vaping throughout the day I kept an I on the level, I was impressed that it wasn't going as quickly as I thought, then this morning I noticed it was slighly lower then expected (I had checked it the night before). I did spend the night in the airport and spepnt all day on planes with the device in my shirt pocket, by the end of my all day travel from the west coast to the east coast and finally back to the midwest it appeared my clearomizer was practically empty (and I wasn't vaping since I was on the plane most of the time). I'm wondering if this is something I have caused by having the thing stored vertically in my pocket for what was probably a good 20-24 hours? OR is it possibly the case the the liquid wicks into the atomizer part of the clearomizer, so when it reads low or empty in the tank portion that liquid is in the cartomizer (I realize I may be way way off base with that theory). Any way, if there's something I'm doing wrong I want to fix it, I really enjoy the 555 I picked up (had only tried menthols so far) and don't want to waste any of it if I can avoid it.
Also, any advice on a good set up (in terms of atomizer, tank, clearomizer, etc) for the Kgo? I don't need a ton of capacity (while it's convenient my feeling is that if leaks do develop I'd hate to have a huge volume and lose all that juice. Any suggestions are most appreciated. Thanks again!
Edit- I realized I didn't mention any useful information on the clearomizer I'm using. I checked the website for the shop and have a little more info (though not a brand name for it). Here's the info I have on the clearomizer I'm using (it was the one recommended by the shop):
Two 2.2ohm CE4 Clearomizers (recommended)
Also, the Kgo I'm using is the 1100 Mah, I believe it is the first generation??? I did notice some juice on the top of my battery when I unscrewed the clearomizer from the battery to check. Not sure on the PG/VG ratio of the 555 I got, but I'm sure I could find out. Again, any advice greatly appreciated. I really like this set up but don't like the idea of wasting juice, especially when 10ml can last me at least a few days (I'm more of a light vaper with occassional vaping binges - I was the same with analogs and pipes).
