Morning shinies :wub:

Hope everyone is doing ok!!

Just wicking a Dvarw DL for Veronica she's been vaping the new Aspire BP 80 and having problems with leaking. Not sure whether it's the bung or round the coil orings!!

Coil ready for wick :D

Are you trying to fit an original top kit to a clone?? If so that's probably the problem :)
It's clones of both.
Thanks Charlie. I think 'I've worked it out now.
Two things have helped:

1)Removing the Dvarw DL chimney cap.
2)Making sure there's no wick (at all) protruding from the wicking ports that can get snagged up by the juice flow control.

The way this top fill kit works is the DT becomes a handle to spin a barrel that opens or closes the juice flow. As always with jc - close when filling, open when vaping.

It's been vaping fine for the last few hours without a leak.

After all that I'm not sure there's much benefit to the top fill kit. It's ok but the normal bottom fill for the Dvarw works fine and I love an atty with no moving parts. Anyway I'll keep running it for a while and see how it goes after a few days.

Glad you've got it sorted but I do agree there's not much worth in a topfill kit and I always have a peek at my wick and coil with the bottom fill, so quickly preempt any issues.

Don't forget they're very costly to feed and water...not to mention that they tend to stick their trunks up your jacksy....how big's your living room?? :D
.
Did you know...

Elephants require about 68.4 to 98.8 L (18 to 26 gal.) of water daily, but may consume up to 152 L (40 gal.). An adult male elephant can drink up to 212 L (55 gal.).

Happy I don't have @Pigs water bill. ;)

:D
