Hello everyone, I'm a bit new to vaping and i purchased my first setup which is an eGo Twist with a vivi nova and for some reason the eliquid is leaking through the mouthpiece even though everything is tightly sealed. This is causing my lips to constantly be chapped and burning. Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.

I, at least when I can, take the tip off once in a while and set it on a paper towel for 30 seconds or so to let the excess drain out, also don't vape with your device tilted downward.

I had that problem a lot when I first got my vivi nova! When you take your tank apart, unscrew the head and tilt that bottom part down against a paper towl. I often take a q-tip and kind of wipe the inside out.

up the voltage a little if you can without getting a burnt taste. And take lighter inhales. You might be drawing too much juice into the chamber for the coil to vaporize. Also, either get some pipe cleaners, or learn how to tightly roll up the corner of a paper towel or kleenex to clean it out every once in awhile.

Also, sometimes if you let your vape lay on it's side, some e-juice will get into your drip tip. In that case, just take your drip tip and just blow the liquid out!

Haha I have a Vapor Bros that isn't the hands free one. There have been many times where I accidently put the bowl end to my lips. I've never actually been burnt though.
