Over the last week my clearos have been randomly leaking, trying to work out where from, it seems where the clearo connects to the battery, bloody tedious as I usually keep them in an upright direction to avoid leaking or lying on their side.
even the new ones vision v3 i just bought which can be taken apart for cleaning have leaked.
any pointers as to how i can avoid this?
nothing worse than filling up, only to find one has leaked standing upright! it's confusing as you like.

They shouldn't leak whether stood up or lying down. When people report leakage from the mouthpiece end it's usually because they've pushed the drip tip in and missed the fact that they screw in. Leakage from the battery end usually means that you've got some juice in the centre tube whilst filling. Fill at a 45 degree angle down the inside wall... like pouring a pint

haha im glad i am not alone, so much to learn as you go along, love it bought 4 of the new clearomizers you can take apart, now have a range of flavours, still smoking but the breaks between ciggies and the withdrawal has become easier Monday to Friday, just need to get through the weekends, then it's time to reduce to 0 nasties

It's an easy mistske to make, especially if you have previously used a traditional drip tip in a carto. And none of this gear comes with instructions so the forum is such a great place to share knowledge.

what nicotine strength are you vaping at Ciar? 18-20mg depending on the flavour, I do have a 26mg silks but i just find it's too strong for me.
