Just twist the top off and if the center has moved to the outside of the tube, pop it back into place. It's really simple and you wasted juice for nothing. The way the bottom of it is threaded it can move from time to time. If you feel a gurgle open the top and look, mkae sure it's mostly center, if not move it. Blow it out and keep on vaping.

It takes less effort or strength then cracking a knuckle, and once it moves once you will have to do it fairly often.

I would add to keep it from moving in the future, take a flat head screwdriver to the empty slots that your coil sits between - that is the same metal pieces that the tube is attached to - and pry them out slightly (too much torque can break them off). The makes the centre tube a tighter fit and less prone to go off centre.

This slight mod is written about in threads on rebuilding the nova all over ecig forums, if you need a visual reference check pbusardo's review/rebuild of the nova. He does the same thing in it.

Since I've done this my nova has handled itself much better, be careful doing so as I broke one head by prying too much, hyst a slight torque to make the tube fit more snug.

Thanks for the tip. I did not know that.
