I'm used to it by now. I just consider it an occupational hazard. To be honest it doesn't faze me that much

I splashed out and bought the Big Boaby tank and Siam Mods carto punch from alba-vapours. SS and Pyrex so you are safe to use any liquid in them with no fear of cracking and I have dropped the tank tons of times and never once damaged it. Costs about £30 but you can also buy the end caps and glass tanks separately. Expensive but IMHO well worth it. Also do other sizes. Wee Boabu and the Big and Little Willie (love those names LOL).

Ok..pushed the needle in more & to one side & am still having problems. Maybe the needle on the bottle isn't long enough? I've seen some people suggest that if you're having filling problems with the AGR then to try this method : unscrew the top cap from tank, and remove the filling screw from the top cap juice up your tank screw the top cap back on to the tank ( the filling hole allows the air pressure to escape ) put the filling hole screw back in Kind of defeats the point of the filling hole in some ways, but might be worth a try if you're still having issues? P.S I don't have an AGR2 yet, so I can't comment first hand if this is a better way or not.

I got my new AGR v2 today and am looking forward to using it. If someone has problems filling it via the needle hole, you can whip off the top, fill it and screw the top cap back on, but the air hole MUST be free to do it's job. I use both methods. Mostly just needle fill, but it sometimes has built up much too much pressure in the tank and throws a wobbly.

Thanks moodyb & djs. I'm hoping I get the hang of it, or it's back to filling the olde fashioned way lol. Just to say, if you fill an AGR using the top off method, do not put too much liquid in it. I tried to fill my new one almost full. It obviously set off some major pressure issues. I came back to it (after 10 initial puffs) and 80% of my liquid had been forced out of the tank. There is every chance my eVic is dead unless it works full of e-liquid Pretty upset just now. (I never fill it up full?...what was I thinking.... )
