Hey folks,
A few months ago I bought the Feliway Optimum kit with the diffuser, since my old one from a Classic kit has been getting hot. Last night, I noticed the new diffuser was leaking. The oil was all around the base where the wick screws in and some dropped down the side of the pheromone container. That hasn’t ever happened with the Classic diffuser. I was comparing them and noticed that the wick doesn’t stick out on the Optimum diffuser like it does on the Classic one.
Has anyone encountered this? If you have the newer diffuser that has the green light on the front, does the wick that screws in stick up or is it buried in the area where it screws in? I’ll provide some photos to show what I’m talking about.

New Optimum diffuser that’s been leaking. Notice how the wick doesn’t stick up at all. It isn’t even flush with the black part. Is that normal?
