Uwell Crown stock coils leaking...

[Icaruss]

I think i'm having a problem with this as well. I just started 2 days ago, refilled once, and it started to leak out of the air flow control holes today.. Can't seem to figure out where the o rings are supposed to go! But why would juice get into the base is beyond me. Little help?

I noticed that if you get even a small amount of juice down the center post while filling then juice will leak out of the airflow on the bottom. I found that taking the coil out and swabbing the inside of where the coil goes with a Q-tip will soak up any excess juice and then after putting it back together it does not leak.

I took out the coil after letting it sit for a bit and noticed that the base of the crown is a little damp, with tiny dots of juice down there. Is that normal? When refilling i made sure no juice dripped down the middle.. and there's still some minor bubbling/gurgling noises whenever i vape it.

I would suspect that even though you have tried not to you have gotten some juice down the center post while filling. Make sure to close off the airflow when you are filling the tank. As for the juice inside where the coil goes just swab it out with a Q-tip and you should be fine.

Okay thanks will try. Just hope it's just my mistakes and not the problem with the tank.. Will keep trying and hopefully the noise will go away soon.

Hello, guys I have noticed that this happens when you use the top fill. Bottom filling has completely eliminated the issue for me. I have a black Uwell Crown. I've contacted uwell to see if they can send me a thicker o ring that seals the coil, I'm hoping that this fixes the issue when top filling.

Uwell has not responded yet but I have found a small fix. Before you top fill smoke as much juice out of the tank as you can before you refill. I've done this twice, top filled it and I've had no leakage or even gurgling.

I have an original Crown in silver (not a fasttech copy or so).
As soon as i use top filling it leaks nastily, the coils get flooded, there is nasty gurgling and so on. Complete unacceptable.
When using bottom fill, it does not leak.

I bought it because of the top filling option.

I feel ripped off, although i know there are users without any leaking issues.

Bought the crown when they fist came out and have had no issues, make sure you close off the air control ring before using the top fill if you are having flooding issues. Make sure all of your pieces are screwed together tightly and all of the o rings are in place and are in good condition. Best tank I've ever used, never leaks, never spits, just a great flavorful vape at any wattage

Cassisus, I have the same issue (black Crown) leaking from air flow area. It's not constant, but perhaps every other day. I've emailed Uwell with no response. In reading up on Uwell Crown leaks, it seems to be hit and miss. Have you had any luck?

Mine's a silver and it only leaked once (very, very minor one I might add) during priming of the .5 ohm coil on my RX200 but it works fine for me now.

Yea, I'm also having leak issues with my silver Crown. I close the airflow, don't overfill and still have this problem. Waiting on the RBA to arrive so i can see if that'll fix the problem.

The RBA is even worth, in my experience.
Only solution for me: i strictly avoid top filling, i just use buttom filling, and my leaking problems dissapear.

So do you still close off airflow or just fill and go? I've noticed significant improvement closing off airflow when top filling as Crown recommends. And washing out the air chamber periodically helps too.
