Hellllllppppp!

Um well I cleaned out my rainbow clear thing. Emptied it and stuff. Dried it. Filled it with juice which started leaking out the bottom where you attach it to the battery. Is that normal please?

[Chrissie]

It doesn't sound right BC, but going to have to leave it up to others to help you as I've not got round to trying them yet.

If you overfilled it, juice can run down the central tube and out the bottom. This can also happen if you accidentally squirt juice down the tube while filling. How much is running out? Does it stop after a few drips?

[beautycat]

Oh thank you I hope that is it . Also tastes a bit yuck

[Karma]

I don't get on with the rainbow/stardust/clearo thingys

I honestly don't think you can really beat cartomisers for value and function

[Queenie Bee]

The trick with stardusts is to stick with the same flavour or they taste funky hard in the early days though when trying out loads of juice

[beautycat]

I don really get how you use the cartomisers , got it in the kit but just started using the rainbow thing. The cartos are still in the box

[beautycat]

Aha, this tastes disgusting. Like gone off tabacco

[Chrissie]

BC, what don't you get about the cartomisers? All you need to do is fill them via the condom method, bung on a drip tip & vape away -



Then just keep them topped up

Try taking it off, and blow down the mouth peice into a tissue to get the bits out, then clean it off.

the taste could be from the burnt juice that was in the tube, mixing with the water etc that was still in the wick. I have found that to get the bad taste away I take mouthfulls of the vapour, and blow it out and I do that repeeatedly for a while, also only short bursts with the battery, so that it does not embed that flavour onto the wick.

then don't let them completey dry out, just top up from the top into the wadding avoid the centre

this little gizzmo makes the topping up job so much easier

Do you work in a school? I used to, still miss the holidays, but don't miss the job

Enjoy half term and your vaping experiments

It's probably juice down the middle, as the others have said. Always keep a tissue handy just in case and wipe off your battery connector when this happens too, as well as the bottom of the clearomiser (just make a wee hump of tissue and stick it up the skirt of the clearo ). When you've just cleaned one out it can take a few draws to wick the fluid in properly. I just 'chuff' without inhaling until there's a decent vapour production and then I'm usually good to go.
