Last week i bought some metal mini viva nova's for the juices that can crack the plastic tanks, a few times over the last week i have had leaks from the bottom of the clearo where it screws into the battery & also gurgling coming up through the central tube, yesterday i went for the one that has a licorice & aniseed mix in it & found quite a bit of juice in the hole of the stand, today i left that one at home while i went to work because of the leakage & when i got home & checked it all the juice had drained out of it. Obviously i tried all joints were not loose but it seems to be leaking from the bottom of the central tube, has anyone any idea why this would be happening.

Sometimes this is cause by the atty head unscrewing - remove all the juice and the top and try screwing it back down. It can happen when you refill - so annoying!

Just condensation/recondensed juice. I wouldn't worry about it..
All center airhole attys will exhibit this and will need wiping down from time to time.

Definitely sounds as suggested.....The head is loosening off when you unscrew the top.

Cheers, I'll have a go at stripping it down & re tightening the atty this will fix the problem
