Bought one of these a while back. I keep digging it out every now & then but I can never seem to get the bloomin' thing working properly. Always seems to leak juice/the juice seems to just magically disappears. I also have trouble filling the thing with juice. Even tho' I use needle bottles, still seems to spill out of the screw hole.
Can anyone offer advice on how I can get this working properly.

It's been a while since I used a carto tank, but the filling was always a bit touch and go. Have you considered trying any of the newer devices hissie? Protanks, Evods, iClears - they all give a much better vape and are significantly less hassle too

I gave up with those very quickly as they were constant problems. It did not perform very well either. As suggested It might be worth getting something else. Or maybe someone else can shine some light and share their successful use of this carto tank. Timbo

Unfortunately this carto tank is known for its leaking problems, its something to do with the airflow causing negative pressure which makes it leak on a regular basis. If you like carto tanks (in my honest opinion they are better value for money and give a better vape than protanks, davides, evods, etc so long as you have a good quality carto in there like a boge) then maybe it would be worth trying the x8 or the trap tank, both of which have the fill screw on the top for easy refilling.

I've just recently tried an iclear & didn't like it. Haven't tried any of the others tho', so might look into those.
For a while now I have found that the old plastic agr tank suits my needs well, however, they are increasingly hard to come by now.
I only use Boge cartos..bit old skool but they do the job.
Does the X8 fit standard size Boges?

It's true in most cases, you get what you pay for. I have been using Wee Boaby carto tanks for well over a year and as far as I can remember I've had no problems what so ever. I use boge l/r cartos and double punch them for fantastic flavour and vapour at 9watts.
