Hi all,
I put a post up a while back (which I cant seem to find for some reason) regarding the irritating and frustrating issues I have had with my Uwell Crown.
I love the vape on this thing, the build is nice, the airflow is perfect for how I like to vape, I even like the way it looks on my mods. I just cannot get my head around the issues with leaking I seem to be having.
Whenever the tank stands for more than an hour or so it leaks above and below the airflow ring. At first it was just little drops that I got used to wiping up every now and then, but it seems to have progressively worsened, to the point where I'm wasting more juice than I'm vaping. When I turn the airflow ring to closed (when I top fill) I can see a lot of juice has built up between the airflow ring itself and the column behind it, I clean it up best I can and within an hour or 2 its soaked again.
I have completely disassembled the tank on many occasions to try and work this out, inspected and changed every O ring at some stage, tried different stock coils, the RBA base, even tried juices of different viscosities to see if it helped but to no avail.
What am I missing? Have I just ended up with a dodgy tank? I've tried everything I can think of, I don't have any issues with any of my other sub-ohm tanks.
This is my last hope before I bin the thing which I really don't want to do as it is one of my favourite "tank vapes".
Any advice would be greatly appreciated and apologies for the essay!
