Tank/cart leaking into battery

[Demiurgous]

Not sure what the issue is, but seems like I've got a tank (or two) or cart (or two) leaking onto the top of the battery contact, both with ego twist and the ego v passthrough.

Are there any recommended tank/carto combinations that will prevent this? I love swapping tanks out to change flavors, and I'm tired of cleaning a bit of juice off the contact. It's not leaking to the point of being all over and visible from the outside, just when I take the tank off.

I don't mind shelling out a few bucks, but I'm tired of getting something basic and then spending twice that for something that works better for me. I'd rather just buy better off the bat.

Thanks in advance.

Almost all cartos/attys and clearos get some ejuice on their centerposts in an area where the air channels are. The Kanger T3's have been the driest I've used, and then I still wipe out the center posts on the batt and clearo when I'm charging batts or changing clearos. Also take a swipe at the charger contacts as well. PG will be worse than VG or VG/PG blends. Certain ejuices have historically been less viscous than others.

Good to know! So as long is isn't present on the _outside_, just vape on? Works for me.

I have a big supply of cue tips And also twirl some cotton fluff onto a tooth pick to get in tiny well area and also don't leave my tanks on over night. It bugs me too

I occasionally use a q tip dipped in alcohol to clean 510 wells. The alcohol will get even the old e-juice on the threads and well.

Thanks for the tips! Seems it was much ado about nothin

I was going to ask the same question. The constant cleaning is driving me nuts!!

Actually with my carto/tanks the only time I get leakage is if I accidentally flood the carto.
Use IB Tanks and Phiniac tanks.
And once a week I use some alcohol and a Q tip and clean the connections real good.

The battery post? I did that once with a 9 volt battery when I was a kid!

Out of several carto tanks i had only one that left juice in the battery contact area. Then i realized that with the tanks that didn't leave juice it was because the juice was thicker.

Since I switched to phinac tank and their filling tool I haven't noticed leakage like I did before. You have to clean the connections periodically no doubt but doing so constantly and daily, several times a day does get really old!
