The older the wicking material inside gets, the less liquid it can absorb. That means that if it&#8217;s been in there a while then that could be the culprit. You should change your coil or pod roughly every 1-2 week, but your vaping style, liquid choice and what power setting you use can shorten this. Also, it&#8217;s a good idea to make sure that your coil is screwed or pushed in securely.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You&#8217;re overfilling your pods<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-rounded\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/filling-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"why is my e-cig leaking filling\" class=\"wp-image-20554\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/filling-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/filling-360x360.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/filling-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/filling-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/filling-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/filling-2048x2048.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/filling-75x75.jpg 75w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p>If your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/vape-kits\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">kit<\/a> uses pods, then overfilling them can actually cause leaking and flooding of the coil. When you top up your tank, the air pressure has to escape through a small hole. If you put too much liquid into it, the only place for the juice to go is through your coil, which will then leak out of the pod. You only have to leave a small gap, but this should help to keep your liquid in your kit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your device has a more traditional tank, a good habit to get into is closing the airflow when you fill it. This helps to keep the tank sealed when you screw the top back on.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Power settings are too low<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-rounded\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/screen-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"screen\" class=\"wp-image-20555\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/screen-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/screen-360x360.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/screen-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/screen-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/screen-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/screen-2048x2048.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/screen-75x75.jpg 75w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p>Different resistances of coils need to be run at their own power levels.
