Hey guys,
just been to liberty flights today and picked up a new clearo and when I open the sealed packet it was wet when I unscrewed the drip tip. Never had a clearo come wet let alone sealed and wet.
anyone else had this? I'm a bit paranoid about using it coz the liquid has no smell but its thick so not water. The wicks are bone dry though.

Could be machine oil from when they made it, clean it with warm soapy water and rinse and leave overnight.

Atomisers always used to come with a primer fluid, it so say helped them ' travel ' better . . . don't know if that could be the case here Glenn?

The drip tip on this clearo has completely dissolved around the bottom(bit which goes into the tank) and has started to mix with the liquid. I took a few pictures but I'm on my phone at the moment. I've had DOA stuff before but this is plain weird. I put some liquid into it and took a few drags before bed and woke up to it sticky, no sign of a short that's heated it up to melt it just a sticky mess???

Not bought many perps but i have found the same with the primer fluid.

I’m using a diy kit from TW, it’s already produced 5 flavours and been fine, I had left over vg and pg nic base from this kit so got some purfumers apprentice flavours (apple, bubblegum and root beer) from liberty flights along with the atomiser. It’s been over a month and a half since I got this kit coz I didn’t like mixing but it’s never produced results like this, I’ve had many clearos so I got some drip tips lying around, I’m going to put one in a bowl of the liquid to test if its that but I’m not convince. Liberty flights is just round the corner and I work pretty close to so I’m going to go on lunch to see them, they have been very helpful (the guy in the shop always makes you feel like his best friend bless him) but I read they’re terms and they say they only replace DOA prods so not sure if they’d class this as such or say that it must have been something I’ve done.

He said that he filled it. Took a few drags and then went to bed. Assumed he left it full overnight and then woke up to a dissolved drip tip.

Bubblegum and a dash of apple I wonder if either of those caused the drip tip to melt. Sent from my Galaxy Note 2
