I have a leaky vaporiserUpdated a year ago

So you've finally got your new vape, you go to fill it up and now it's leaking e-liquid. The first step is to not panic! Due to the nature of these products, a small amount of leaking is normal and nothing to be concerned about. If the liquid is pouring out, something isn't set up correctly. Most of the time, it comes down to the coil in your vape.

• CHECK THE COIL

  Pour any excess juice back into your e-liquid bottle, or keep your vape tank in a position that won't allow excess juice to pour out. Now carefully unscrew the coil. We recommend a paper towel to wipe up any excess juice as this can be a messy job! Now dry all the juice from the coil and the vape tank. Once it's all clean, screw the coil back in finger tight (not too tight!) and replace the tank, then fill it up. Resetting the coil usually fixes any leaks.

• REPLACE THE COIL

  If your vape is still leaking, it's time to replace the coil. It is likely that there is a spare coil in your vape kit. Grab a spare coil from the original kit or from a spare pack of coils. Make sure everything is dry again, and try the new coil. We have to remember that these coils are mass-produced, so there can be some defects that can lead to a coil leaking. A fresh coil will solve this issue, and you'll be back vaping in no time!

• OTHER ISSUES

  Thin e-liquid can mean vape leaks - we recommend using higher VG e-juice like the VAPO line of liquids.

• SEALS MAY HAVE WORN AND NEED REPLACING

  The tank may be cracked - you will need to buy a new tank or replacement glass.

• KEEP YOUR VAPE PEN VERTICAL

  Lying a vaporiser on its side makes it prone to leaking.
