I recently got a mini T3 from SI. I really like it but have run in to a little issue with refilling. I vaped it down to pretty much empty before trying to refill it. It gurgled a lot after I refilled it the first time, but it eventually stopped. The second time I refilled it, it did the same, but there was also some leaking from the battery end. Is there something I could do to avoid this happening?

It sounds like you got juice down the center post when refilling. Try to avoid doing that. After refilling try blowing it out from the battery end-that will clear the juice out of the center tube if you did mange to get some juice in it. I just got the mini T3s in this week also-love them!

Thats what I figured the first time, even though I was careful. I paid extra attention the next couple fills, and blew it out, but still had similar issues. The last time I filled it, it was really bad. I let it sit for a bit and then blew it out and only a little juice came out. When I started to vape it was gurgling like crazy and leaking. I kept removing it to wipe it down. I think I lost about 1/2ml of juice before it stopped leaking and started performing normally. I'm stumpped!

The gurgling/flooding issues are common with T3s and other BCCs when the eliquid falls below ~0.8mL. Nothing much you can do about it other than refilling them. Avoid tilting the device or take lighter draws kinda helps as well.

I haven't had much issue with them leaking when the liquid level falls. All the issues I've had happens when its first filled all the way.
