Congrats on the bullet. It's one of, if not the, best fixed voltage machine out there.
First thing you need to do is make sure the carto is full before you cap off the tank.
It won't fill itself through the hole. It'll only be able to keep up with the amount lost by your vaping.
It's not unheard of to get a bad carto where the tube isn't fastened well onto the base.
That sounds like the problem you are having. Try another carto and fill it well before you start vaping.
Yes. and before that last push to finish inserting the tube, I turn upside down so the pressure pushes air through the hole rather then juice possibly flooding the carto.Ok good. I have almost the exact same tank.Recover as much liquid as you can. First you need to remove the carto and fill it as you normally would. It will take about 20-30 drops of fluid to fill it. Then slide it through the bottom of the tank. Slide it almost all the way to the top. Tilt the carto inside the tank to allow a small opening to drip in your fluid. Drip in your fluid until it almost reaches the top of the carto. Push carto through the top. Attach drip tip. Vape your face off.
The tank works on a negative pressure so the filling of the carto is important before adding the fluid to the tank. At least as I have found, this way works better for me. With an empty carto And the tank not filled to the top it seems to me to not be enough positive pressure against the liquid to not allow the fluid to just run through the path of least resistance....the bottom..... Good Luck. Happy Vaping.
Still need more information.
Is it firing?
Can you not draw without getting juice through tip?
Is draw feel open or clogged?
Step by step on what you did?
What type or viscosity of juice are you using?
Hard to give advise with no information but leaks and get juice in mouth.
fill the carto before the tank?You still need to fill the carto properly before you go any further if you havn't already. This isn't quite as easy as plunking a tank into and ego t atty and going to town. Please don't ruin this experience for yourself. Just make sure the carto is full and then fill the tank. Give it about five minutes to get soaked and you should be all set to go.
sounds like he overfilled and flooded it.....
dump whatever juice you have in the tank back into your bottle... slide the carto out of the base of the tank... aim carto at sink or trashcan and blow firmly thru the threaded end to clear the tube... swap inside the top of the carto with a Q tip just for sport.
Follow iusedtoanalog's instructions to refill and proceed to vape face off
