Bloody love this thing but am finding it has started leaking from the bottom. Any clues?
Am using 2mm wick and blue foam. Have washed and cleaned it all out since leaks started and am not over filling. Segments are fully screwed on.
Appears to be coming from the holes beneath the posts but could be from the central connector post ... not sure

I know they do leak if not enough filler is used but as you using blue foam unsure if this would be the same..

Yeah mine started to leak also, I think it was a combination of to much wonder foam and over filling.

Not enough filler/foam is the culprit here, its a balancing act depending on the consistency of the e-liquid used. Terrific vape when they're right though

Is is the length or girth of filler at issue? (Oo-er missus). Juice is 70/30

I wrap my blue foam, not too tight or too loose around the funnel and have it cut flush to the bottom of that . . . haven't had any significant leakage, unless I've overfilled it Ash.

I use 1 wrap of the wonder foam and it does not seem to leak. I also bought a clear tank for mine as I don't like the brushed steel finish. It's quite odd looking at the foam and wick through it.

If you don't get an answer on here it might be worth having a chat with the vendor, sure they would help.
