Oh sure...... Just keep it all to yourself. Lol

LOL! I made you some...just forgot to tell ya'!

Anyone ever have any issues with leaking from the center post on the Acorn tanks? I've noticed after I fill I get several drips of juice from the center post. I am not filling completely...only to the bottom of the silver post. Also I'm filling down the side of the tank and staying away from the cup. Can't for the life of me figure out how this thing is leaking juice. It vapes wonderfully, but the constant cleanup is a little aggravating.

I use the Chibi tank so I can't help you with the acorn but my hubby's Chibi was leaking through the center where it connects to his mod and Krispers said that some juice thatis thinner will flood the cartomizer if it has 2 holes so my hubby punched a new carto yesterday and so far no leaking. Maybe the acorn works the same way?

Bill, I forgot to tell you that hubby punched a new carto with 1 hole for his Chibi and no leaks. I think Krispers was right with the 2 holes being to much for the thiner juice. I also got the juice in yesterday and it's really good. It reminds me of the McDonalds they have. It's sweet on the inhale and tangy on the exhale. The only thing I would change would be maybe a little more strawberry. I might put in an order for a sample size of strawberry when funds allow again. Thank you very much for making it for me. :)

Thanks for that Splinter, but the Acorn shouldn't have any way to leak through the center. It's a CE2 tank, so no carto involved. It's actually leaking all the time now. I have to clean the battery every few puffs as there's juice in the connector. I just can't figure out how. I must be doing something wrong, but I sure can't see what.

That almost sounds like the post may have a hole in it somewhere being that your not over filling then I don't see how else it could get down the center hole.

I was just told to inform you that an email was sent to you with options to fix this problem :)

I was actually thinking about uping the strawberry but wasn't sure if maybe it was just me that thought so lol.

I use a 70pg/30vg and it works great with 2 holes but I have never used anything thinner so I didn't even think about that being and issue :facepalm:

How much more strawberry were you thinking it needed? I'm not sure how many drops I would add when I can order it from you. I've been dripping it into an atomizer for now and I'm not sure if putting it in a cartomizer will make the strawberry come out more or if it would taste less. Any ideas?

Got the email...so everyone knows, I really think there is perhaps just the slightest hole in the center post somewhere...I cannot see it, and no way would Bill and crew have known about it in any way. Things happen...thanks for being there and making sure things are right!

Who knows what could have transpired during shipping though, which is out of your hands for sure. I couldn't gripe at all if you guys just said to order another one. I wasn't expecting you to replace it. This just goes to show what kind of people we're dealing with at Parkes Vaping. You have earned my future business in a big way, as well as my referrals!! I'm already planning my next order!! I'm thinking an XL Acorn tank next time...:D
