leaky pro tank

[breakbystealth]

hello all, i have just noticed my pro tank 2 has started leaking since i have rewicked it. i have checked to make sure its all together correct after cleaning, which it is! cant work it out as have rewicked it before and has been fine. have tried changing the coil out and its still leaking from the bottom near the battery contact? anyone else come across this problem and have any advice?

blow it out through the little post you might have excess liquid in the air channel

tried it and still getting problems... starting to think the vamo maybe the problem. it seems the button is playing up a little and not always working, having to press it it the bottom corner to get it to work right!!! this is not a good day

Add an extra bit of wick to sook up more juice. Works for me if you are using thinner liquid.

Same here, 3mm wick with either 2 or 3mm top wick. Depending on what i'm gonna vape.

Different joose? I use 2mm with a 2mm 'stuffing', but that's with fairly gloopy juices; for a thinner PG-heavy dealie I'd be inclined to fatten it up.

Also if you're 'blowing out' the PT make sure you point the screw thread up (so that the coil isn't submerged in juice) otherwise you are just making it worse by forcing more liquid into the coil.

Sounds like you haven't got enough 'flavour wick' on top of the coiled wick or you've not screwed the head into the base tight enough.

Think the wick maybe wound to tight as it's bowing in the middle.... I will rewick it not so tight and see if that helps.

right then lovely people the plot thickens.... i have rewicked my pro tank 2 and its displaying low load so i checked the wires and they were fine and trimmed down ok. tried again and got a reading of 9.9 ohms! then tried the coil in one of my evods and it reads 2.3 ohms!!!! anyone come across this before?

On my vamo, I get the 9.9 reading when there is no tank attacked. So I would assume that the pt2 isn't making contact with the first devise.
