2 months for a disposable item is pretty good

I would not put any type of glue whatsoever to fix it, bite the bullet and get a new one

Agree to both of the above, just take off whatever's salvageable, driptip, head & any wee o-rings, surprising how they all come in useful at some point & treat yourself to a new one . . . . . . or 2 or 3

Only the heads rebuildable . . the rest is disposable & tubes are the thing that normally goes first

The ones Perps linked to will fit a 510 or Ego/Riva The lower the resistance the hotter the vape

The higher the resistance to lower the temperature burn on the coil, resulting in a cooler vape. The consensus is that lower resistance coils are better for tobacco flavours and higher (2.4, 2.8) are better for fruity and dessert flavours. Having said that I recoil my own now, and anything around the 2ohm mark is good enough for me. I would agree that 2 months for a clearo is par for the course - I've had a couple of 'leakers' and they always go at the joint where plastic tube meets metal section at the base. You might want to consider a Mini Nova - they are screw fit to both the top and bottom sections and don't leak. Heads are rebuildable (and recoilable) and have a very good reputation. Look OK on an eGo battery, but you would need to get a plinth to give more stability and improve the aesthetics. Only a couple of quid. Andy

yea that's where mines leaks at the joint where plastic tube meets metal section at the base, can they not be glued so they don't pull apart then?
is duel core better then single ones? whats the difference? why call them duel core and not 2 wicks or 4 wicks lol

A decent replacement is the only real fix. Having said that, I am very tight so would want to have a go at gluing it back together. I can't advise on dual coil as I have not used them. Buy a replacement and then attempt a fix, even if only to learn from the exercise, it's knackered anyway so nothing to lose? I snagged a handful of these last week at £1.99 each and they vape as good as any other I have used: CE5

You can buy a replacement tube, loads of vendors sell them, this is the first that came up in my search I wouldn't bother though the CE5s are out dated, evods and iClear16s are so much more reliable (the replacement tubes don't fit the iClear16s I checked )
