Me again with another question

[vapinbiker]

but that seal is on the drip tip right? is there a seal on the silver neck bit as well? I think this is your problem or it may have dislodged slightly and liquid is getting through the air ways. have you dropped it?

Yes, theres a rubbery bit............http://www.vapeescape.co.uk/vision-ego-rainbow-v3-rebuildable~388........thats the one I have

I get this too with the visions so what I do is every so often hold the ecig upright and unscrew the mouthpiece so that any juice that has collected can drip back down into the tank. Screw the tip back in and carry on vaping, no juice lost and none in your mouth.

Mary,
Had mine 2 days now and had similar problems. Strange thing I noticed yesterday was there was small bubbles in the bottom of the tank. I removed the battery and put my palm over the bottom and gave a good blow through the mouthpiece. I found juice seeping out between the plastic housing and the lower metal ring, so I cleaned it and wrapped it in electrical tape and it's fine now.
I did this about 6 hours ago and not had a problem since.
I hope that makes sense, been up a very long time.

Ah...it would seem im not alone then with this problem. Disco, thats what ive been doing too, its a pain though ant......Aw there must have been something wrong with yours for it to blow through like that, at least youve sorted it now though, I think I would have been inclined to send it back after only two days use.

I think the main issue is a lot of people would think there was no fault and just that Clearo's are not for them. I wanted to use them as I believed the volume they can hold would make things easier. As I have found an easy fix and it's working fine I will just stick with it, better the devil..

I did make the mistake of taking it out in the garden today (bit of weeding in the sun) Got a mouth full of Pineapple, not that bad much nicer that a mouth full of tobacco flavour .

I found it was easy to misalign. with the base you have to be sure to push and screw centrally. I found if I wasnt thinking straight the post was not central therefore the drip tip wasnt on properly either.

That could cause a leak from the top and thinking about it if the bottom wasn't sealed properly, a leak from the bottom too.

I like them that much I have collected about 15 new wicks for them already. Every now and again with juice I order a complete one.

All I need to find out is what to replace the seal with and they start to disintgrate.

I have found the threads are quite flakey
The way I learned about threads years ago was to rotate anti-clockwise until you feel the thread click and then go clockwise but if you feel too much resistance start the process again. Cross threading is going to make a lot of money for this industry :-)

If you're talking about the top seal, I did read in the forum someone mentioned using a condom he had cut up to fit over the seal, sorry I can't remember who.

[Malibu]

The top and bottom seal but I find the bottom seal starts to disintegrate sooner. they are 8mm and 10mm I have measured them lol.

Where on earth do you find such a small condom?

Lol, what an old thread to resurrect 

'condom' means the small plastic end bits over a cartomiser

LOL - pardon my newbeness -

An other possible source of leaking into the mouth could be from the atty itself, Are you recoiling them or using ready made?
Sometimes the silicone cap on the rebuildable does not seat fully and susequently the juice will leak into the airway, once there it will either be pulled into the mouth or leak onto the battery.
