Try taking your drip tip off, putting some tissue over the end and shaking the tank quite hard for a few seconds, if there's juice on the tissue then your chimney has juice in it. If it does, continue doing this until the tissue isn't collecting more juice, then your chimney is clear.

My OH had the same problem - seems it was using the vapouriser like a ciggie. Slow down with the inhales and try a weaker strength. He went down to 6mg and was fine. We are both now using 11 mg hemp oil from Vibrant Vapours and it is so much smoother. Don't give up!
