At 3 weeks fluid level is very low & brown wick still in fluid. Do you let bottle run dry? How low do you let fluid level get before switching refill?

I keep using the bottle as long as the wick is still in contact with the liquid. Sounds like you have just a few days left.

I would let it go another week, I usually end up with a few drops lingering in the bottle before I change it out.

On most of these type of handwarmers, it is recommended that the unit be kept upright before lighting, right after filling. This is to ensure that the fluid has been absorbed fully by the wick, and won't flow back and flare up during lighting. Once lit however, they can usually be put into a pocket however you would like.

The humidifier doesn't take wicks...if you mean for the aroma bottle IDK because I don't use it.

All I know is that when I plugged my diffusers in that after they warmed up all they did was start to leak. I know I won't buy these again. I've tried 6 different diffusers and they all leaked. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Can't say that I noticed if the wick was wet or not.

Sorry if I'm wasting your time but thought I'd share my thoughts. I've only had mine a month & haven't noticed any drying to test this out. however, because it doesn't dry out I'd guess it's not water based & couldn't absorb the water. I think a better bet would be to try adding a little oil. I think I'd try baby oil first.

The bottle says to fill the dropper halfway and put the liquid under your tongue and hold it there for 2 minutes...but I usually do a full dropper for like 5 minutes. :-)

Hey...same thing happened to me. Shake it to 'fluff up' the down. Puff it w your hand too. I did that for about 10 min. Mine ended up expanding. Mine is actually too warm for me. I have to run the heat down 4-5 degrees more than I used to.. but then I don't want to get out of bed in the am. Good luck w it...should be fine. Morrison

YEP! I've been doing it for a week now. Just don't do citrus.. I use only Young Living (I won't get into an argument about purity here, but I am quite certain of the purity of my oils) - I filled the bottle with water, then added 10 drops of EO, then shake it before each time that you fill the atomizer. Works WONDERFULLY. I was the one walking around Convention this week, using it - I bet I sold 100 of them. :)

Sorry I'm answering a bit late, but we have been on vacation. -Just checking email and saw your question. I made a dip that was around 2-3 cups, and there was no liquid at least 2 inches from the top. I started out on the high setting for an hour or two, then I turned it to low. Once my dip was at the right consistency, I put it on warm, and it remained that way for the rest of the evening. I never had a problem with it. I've used many crock pots over the years, and none have ever cracked with no water at the top section. The only time I ever had one to crack was when I accidentally put it on a hot eye on my stove. I had a mess then. :( Sorry I'm answering a bit late, but we have been on vacation. -Just checking email and saw your question.

Ive always wondered if "sealing" around the edges with a wax or something similar would work. Or does the majority evaporate from the wick? Im going to try it with mine and see how it works... will report back.

I own this and tested today to see how many drops you need for this to work properly. It took 50 drops! The glass tubing that connects to the bottom of the container (the bottom of the upside down L shape) on the inside has a little hole in it. For this to work properly (you will see mist if working properly although you need to look closely to see the mist) you need to fill the oil over the hole until you see the oil suck up into it. If there isn't any oil in the bottom piece while it is running there isn't enough oil. This is quite a bit of oil to use although once it gets going it will last a while. I haven't tested how long until you need to add more oil. If you are using the same oil each time you only need to top it off but if you start with a new oil you are going to need 50 drops to get it going again.

Unfortunately, I am not the best person to ask. The product I choose doesn't have any affect on me. My bottle is still full. I believe the max I used it for was a week.

Mine came filled and the flame is adjustable with a "D" handle that swings down when you flip it open with a fingernail.Like most refillables, you need to use a very small screwdriver (pushing in on the valve in center of bottom) to make sure it is completely empty before you try to fill it, otherwise, it won't fill completely.Use a good (multiple-filtered) grade of butane (like Vector).These are usually good for 6-8 refills before the igniter mechanism jams. Ive had 10 or 12 over the years.

Hello,I had the same question. It takes a while for the liquid in the bottle to go down. If the bottle starts to get warm after being plugged in, it should be working. I have noticed that if you plug it in in a room with the door open, it takes much longer for the bottle to go down. If you close the door to the room, it will go down faster.Good luck!

No. You have to get lighter fluid to put in it and then recheck to make sure the fluid has not evaporated about every week and a half. If low on fluid it will not light. You will then need to put in more fluid. You might get apack of flints too.

what? I replace my WICK every 2 or 3 weeks. It gets loaded with mold if you leave it in there longer.

It is not runny nor goopy. It is pretty normal, by my experience. It don't think there is a manufacture date printed on the container, but if it has separated I'd just shake it up. I have worked through my three tubes over several months now and the last one is no different than the 1st.
