What’s condensate? How does it come about?

Condensate is a liquid produced by the difference in temperature. It is pale yellow to white color and has a slight spicy taste.

It turns out that, most of the time, the so-called "leak" is a leakage of condensate.

For those of you who have played with DIY atomizers, it is easy to understand that the coils of alloy will burn red to a very high temperature when the wire is adjusted. Similarly, when the atomizer works, the high heat generated by the coil atomizers the smoke oil, and the smoke temperature generated is higher than the temperature of the atomizer chamber and the external temperature, which will lead to the liquefaction of smoke. If you don't understand the production principle of condensate, you can think of the production of distilled water in steamed bread.

This is determined by the working principle of e-cigarette products. Therefore, under the existing conditions, the problem of condensate cannot be eradicated, and the negative impact of condensate on our users can only be reduced through daily maintenance.

The effect of condensate:

If the condensate is not removed for a long time, it will have an impact on the heating of the vape battery and affecting the user experience.

Once condensate accumulates too much in the drip tip, easily inhaled into the mouth. At the same time, if the condensate on the warehouse wall can’t be cleaned up in time, it will also cause the coil carbon deposition speed, atomization core discoloration and oil blasting problems, for the shortening of atomization core service life will also have a great impact.

How to judge your cartridge leak oil or condensate? 

condensate and oil leak sharing a similar appearance, but can differentiate them from colors and sound.

Sound: During the heating process of atomization, the sound of "purring" is generated by the accumulation of condensate;

Colors: See the leakage of liquid color, with a paper towel to wipe the cigarette and cigarette pod joint, if it is light yellow, it is oil leak; If it's dark brown, it's condensate.

Location: The accumulation of condensate is generally located at the joint between the cigarette holder and the cigarette drip tip.

How to solve the problem of condensate?

Condensate treatment belongs to the category of machine maintenance, which can be solved by the following ways:

1.Wipe the joint of "cigarette stick" and "cigarette cartridge" with a paper towel.

Warm Prompt: keep clean and wipe once after use.

2. Shake the cigarette holder down for more than 10 times to shake out the accumulated condensate; Use a paper towel or cotton swab to clean the inside of the cigarette holder.

3. Please replace the new cartridge after refilled 3-5 times.

The cause of oil leak:

Generally speaking, oil leaking can be divided into two kinds: one is any failures due to incorrect operation or misemploy; the other quality of the product itself has some problems.

Any failures due to incorrect operation or misemploy:

1. When vaping, it is better to draw evenly and suction properly, not too large or too small.

2. Vape cartridges are usually either chewed in the mouth or pinched too hard on the hand when used, causing oil to leak from the squeeze.

3. Idle for too long. vape cartridges can’t be saved too long time. Try to use them within normal time.
