Vision EGO 3 and Twist problem

[Juice Kitchen]

Hi all, Im new to vaping and just wondering if leaking is normal behaviour of a vision V3? Basically, it leaks a small amount onto the battery terminal. When I unscrew the Vision from the twist, I can see the contact is covered in a small amount. The vision isnt leaking anywhere else and I didnt get any down the center when refilling!

Is this normal or something else?

Cheers in advance!

Not sure DB, I don't use them but make sure you keep cleaning the connector on the Twist and do the same with your charger

Hey, I do make sure im cleaning it all off the contacts and have not had to charge since its started this behaviour. I just dont like the leakage onto the battery terminals. I have ordered a few more that will come tomorrow so Ill be able to test a new one out. Im not sure how its even coming out of the center to be honest!

Make sure you are not getting any liquid in the centre wick part when you are refilling and always check that you screw the mouthpiece on tightly to stop any liquid pouring down the centre whilst in use. If it is still leaking, sometimes taking it apart and giving it a good clean can help.

Howdy, Im 100% sure no liquid down the center, blown through it etc. The tip is tight down and sealed, made that mistake before and got the tingly lips sensation and im not tasting liquid or tingling!! It isnt over filled as I only fill up to just below the ato plastic. Its a bit weird. Could it be the vision is dying, only been using it for a week with 4 fills?

Cheers for all the suggestions!

If you find a small amount of juice in the battery well, it's condensation and is normal..

Hey Macca, I can understand how it could be condenstation, makes sense, the consisitancy/smell just seems to be too close to the liquid and its only just started! Could be the way that my vaping has changed as ive got used to it though.

Does make complete sense being condenstaion though.

Cheers again

When it's new the wicks are new and absorb the recondensed vapour more easily.. As it ages condensation forms on the walls and drips down the center pin hole.

It's recondensed vapour so it will smell exactly the same as your e-liquid..Once you clean it, it'll become better and then it will start all over again..

Mine do it all the time, just a tiny bit so I think Macca has it spot on. Sometimes I'm aware it's cos I got a bit of juice in the tube when filling, so I accept that, but it does happen a teeny bit all the time.

I just clean it off every now and again, maybe every half vision full.

Mine do the same also It is normal.

However, if you get a proper blob....

Over filled - the usual case,
Too much jiggling - can also also cause a blob
Silicon Cap over wick not seated properly
Threaded drip tip not seated properly or aligned properly
Head not tight enough
Juice type, certain juices can cause over-wicking - I've found this with some juice, a couple of dry sucks - not to hard or you'll get a mouth full of juice!

If in doubt, strip it down, clean it, re-build it slowly, and all will be fine.

Once mastered, they're pretty much as perfect as you can get

Hope that helps

cheers for all the advice everyone, condensation it is then!
