Clammy battery?

[ghostrider1971]

Hi guys,

Apologies - another battery query...

When I change the batteries in my Pico 75, I notice that the batteries feel slightly damp/clammy when I take them out of the mod. This happens if I use Samsung 25-r or Sony VTC-5.

The batteries don't feel hot and are not damaged or split in anyway. The ends look normal to me. I'm always using this mod under 10w with a Nautilus

Could it be a juice seep?

Any advice, much appreciated

ghostrider1971 It's the juice/condensation seeping in through the threaded cap, we get the same occasionally and some tanks are more prone to it than others.

car147 - Thanks for the reply - Is it nothing to worry about?

I just check it now and again, It's a wee bit of a design mistake imo as any liquid or condensation that ends up on the 510 top cover will find it's way down the threads into the battery compartment. you may find some tanks are worse than others. I have never got anymore than a slight damp feeling from a battery, but if your getting more i would look at using another tank. (it could be down to where the air holes are allowing condensation to form)

when i change my battery out i wipe down the top of the pico and the threades of the battery cap its second nature now
