Vision Nano clearomizer - refilling question

[telsie]

Is there some trick to refilling these things to prevent liquid from seeping out the bottom hole? I'm not getting any liquid in the little metal air flow tube and I'm not delaying in putting the mouth piece back on after filling. But while I'm refilling, if I don't plug that bottom hole with my finger or something, liquid will drip out. Even when keeping the hole covered until I've got the mouth piece screwed back on, there's liquid gathered at the bottom hole when I'm done and I have to blow it out, wipe it off, go wash my hands... it's kind of a hassle.

Am I doing something wrong or is this business as usual with these Vision Nano Clearomizers? This is the first clearomizer I've ever used, so I've got no experience with these things. I'm loving the way it vapes, but I hate the messy refilling process.

I have several - great for new flavors, good form factors for hands-free auto sticks.

You don't say what juice or ratio PG/VG you're using. Perhaps it's really thin? I've had the same experience with some very thin, light juices, but thicker darker ones don't seem to do it. (Mine are 80/20, btw.)

It seems, too, that when I screw the tip back on, if I remember to do it very slowly, there's less leakage. You are slightly pressurizing the tube when you put the tip in, so going slowly gives less of a pressure surge.

Yep, nice vape.

It's a thin (PG), medium/dark juice (starts amber colored but gets darker over time). Thanks for the tip. I'll try putting the top on very slowly next time and see if that helps.

I've also noticed that if I take at least a few draws shortly after filling, it almost never leaks, so maybe try that, too.
