protank 2 problem

[davyc]

Having a strange problem with my old protank, probably me but not sure.
Have recoiled an wicked with micro and cotton an its vaping great but there seems to be juice gathering on the shoulders under the drip tip so occationly I end up with a mouthful of juice. 
Any ideas what might be causing it? I was thinking about the rubber cap at bottom of chimney?
Cheers

Its just juice spitting up from the heat of the coil, nothing to worry aboit really

[Clivia]

as Steve (VapeStorm) said - it's normal - just use some tissue to tap it of

[smifee]

I get this with all the tanks I use. I think it's condensed vapour because it's a different colour to the juice.

When I vape a home made Apple liquid the juice is a very pale green. The liquid I dab out of the drip tip with a cotton bud is brown.

This is one of the reasons I never use cotton and micro in those type of coil heads, leak leak gurgle tastes bloody awful with a gob full of juice.

2mm silica, wrap a few wraps of thin kanthal, I use .18mm, round the silica, fit it to the head, fold the silica over the top, fit the cap and trim the wick. Since using this method there's not been a single issue for months, it just keeps on working perfect vape after vape.

Yeah, this happens quite often.

The easy trick, that I think @johanino posted a video of, is leaving your attie on your mod, take the drip tip off, fold some tissue and drape it over the top of the attie, grasp the attie, holding the tissue either side, so it is tight to the top, then just use a throwing on the floor type motion (but don't let go!) Do this a few times with a clean section of the tissue on the top, sorted

Maybe @johanino can find the video again? My description sounds terrible!

lairey your description makes perfect sense but why not just take the drip tip off and stuff the tissue in your hole and wiggle

Because this way, you don't need to twist the corner of the tissue tight, tearing off the end by mistake, realising there is more juice in the tube than you thought and having to do it again and picking up torn bits of tissue off the floor.  It really does only take seconds

[Clivia]

I also use pipe cleaners - just fold them and wiggle

Above is the video that lairey mentioned davyc

Hope it helps. I still use this method. Also make sure your atomiser head is screwed in well.

= cotton bud jab down the tube and if it's still drippy, stuff other end in and invert mod.

[davyc]

Ha ha! I knew all that already, I don't really know why I asked such a stupid question
Really not sure where my head is just now, been using these tanks for nearly a year and automatically clean out around the tip so not really sure where it came from.

Double post!

Don't worry davyc

Really that video is well cool for clearing out condensed muck from protanks. Will help someone am sure

One thing I do like pipe cleaners for is clearing out junk from drip tips
