I got asked a question tonight by a member that totally has me dumbfounded. Here's the problem she is having with hers. It worked just great on the first new fill but after that it all went downhill. On the second fill, she experienced bad leaking out of the cartomizer. She used a fusion and a boge...both carto's did the same thing. I thought it could be one of the following: a cracked tank which would cause no vacuum, a nicked/broken O ring which would also cause the juice to flow too freely, or the airholes somehow has developed holes in them or been disturbed. I don't know if she put a new carto in it yet or not but I'm assuming she did. I told her that I would check on here and if no answer, to give them a call. Any insight to this would be greatly appreciated. I haven't had this happen with any of mine and several of my carto's are on their 5th tank.
I'm having the same sort of problem, but only with a slotted Fushion, not the standard-equipment Boge.
The difficulty has
not to do with a faulty seal; in fact, it's the high integrity of the seals that are actually working against me.
I'm attempting to refill by removing the top cap, squeezing juice into the open areas around the carto's outer walls and the tank's inner walls. The problem erupts when I attempt to replace the top cap;
erupt is a good choice of word, because by forcing that 3/16" or so of top-cap volume into the upper portion of the tank, the air and juice below has to go somewhereand go it does, erupting out the opening in the base of the Fushion, flooding the atomizer coils in the process.
The O-rings are fine; that, again, is where the problem lies. If there were cracks in them, the juice might use them for an escape route instead of bleeding out the opening in the Fushion.
