ive had and been using this tank since this sat just gone and it's been great easy to use and good chuffs then it started leaking through the bottom air intake slots every time I refill I have not done anything different and I've made sure I haven't got any juice anywhere but the filling holes plus it's spits like a bugger for the first 5-10 mins then seems to get back to normal. As I'm a bit of a noob I was wondering if there is something I'm doing or something I'm not doing and should??? Any help would be appreciated thanks Alex

Not got that tank, but the kanger occ coil heads i do use can start to weep juice thru the air in vents when its at the end of their life... some coil heads last longer than others, and sometimes the juice you vape can effect this..
Try priming and fitting a new coil head to start with, a sharp blow thru the drip tip with the air in vents open and cradled in a tissue, will clear the 'vents' of any leaked juice..
if the leak persists, check and replace if possible any orings sealing the juice from the air in pathways, and check the chimney/coil head oring if fitted??
** edit when filling do u close off the air in vents?? if not that cld be the root of it too..

I had a problem with leaking / weeping juice when I first got my Triton but find that this method of filling has solved the problem completely: Close air intake Open fill port Tilt the tank slightly so that one fill hole is above the other. Slowly fill through one fill hole (bottom) and allow air to escape through the other (top). Leave an air bubble (do not fill completely). Straighten up and close fill ports Open air intake Enjoy a leak-free vape

I've found opening the fill port before pulling out the top cap and replacing it before closing the fill port helps. As well as closing the airflow when filling.

Take out the coil, clean and dry inside around the air intake with a cotton bud Screw coil back in nice and tight
Then follow the filling instructions above
If that fails then give it to me because I'm loving my triton :-)
