I have some LR ones I bought on offer. This is the first one I used. Have filled leaked at the bottom, emptied dry burned and blown through, filled again and still leaks. Is it just a duff one do you think. Should I put that one down to experience and open a new one or do you think I am doing something wrong Am using on my ego t btw BC

Overfilling can cause leaks..Always fill below the wicks, roughly 1.4 ml mark..
After screwing in the mouthpiece fully hold it up to the light. If you can see a gap between the bottom of the mouthpiece and the silicone cap then either the top collar is mis-alinged or the innards have worked downwards. You can put it on a battery and try and push the innards inwards so that the silicone cap and mouthpiece make contact.

Yes I have violet. I saw that one too. It doesn't seem a very tight seal though

I had a situation where the plastic tank part was not seated properly in the collar, check this as well. If it's not take the mouthpiece out stand it on some kitchen roll and give it a good hard press, this will re-seat it, it worked for me.

I have one like that as well beautycat. It looks like mine is a little off kilter (the middle part) and so when I screw the tip on there's almost a squint to the middle post. I've set it aside cos I don't want to waste anymore of my Raspberry Tea juice
