Vision Ego Style clearomiser not producing enough vapour after shakeup?

[gpang788]

Just swapped my old ego style clearomiser with a new one 2 days ago. New clearomisers do taste & vape fantastic I must say

The new one was working well and produced lots of vapour until this morning, when it started gurgling a little. So I juiced it up to full, then shook it a little - did get rid of the gurgling but noticed a drastic reduction in vapour after that - about 70%!!

I don't think its time for a cleanup yet as its only 2 days old.

What gives?

Sounds like you may have forced too much liquid onto the coil, if the coil is too wet the vapor production drops. Try blowing through the drip tip with the other end in a tissue, it may clear out the excess....

p.s. Welcome to ECF!!

Top coil clearos depend on the wicks to bring juice up to the bowl. Bottom feeders naturally feed the juice to the wicks. If you lay a top coil clearo in its side for a long time, over-saturation can happen. Keep it upright and tip it once in a while to feed more juice to the coil.

As Stosh said, blow it out into a tissue held around the bottom threads and it should straighten up and vape like it should.

Good advice guys. Works like a charm

Yes, blow out the extra, and next time, don't top it off. When I filled my V2, I did it UNDER the wicks by a good deal. also, check your pg/vg ratio... a 50/50 should work fine, but if you have more VG than PG, I'd be careful not to over saturate the wick by tipping it for long.
