There have been a few threads recently about isub tanks leaking so here is my tuppence worth on the subject.
I have a few of each, both the isub G and the isub S.
On two occasions (one with each tank type), I have simply filled a new tank straight out of the box and left the coil to soak for half an hour only to return to find that it had dumped the full eliquid load all over my desk. On close inspection I found that in both cases the cup-shaped seal that the head of the coil fits into (the end of the coil with the spit-back screen) was distorted. Resetting the seal correctly solved the problem on each occasion and other than those two occasions my isub tanks have been leak free ever since.
Every time I get a new tank or replace a coil in a tank, I now take the following precautions:
Visually check that the cup-shaped seal is correctly seated. Smear a little eliquid around the side of the coil so as to lubricate it as I push it into the seal. Gently twist the coil slightly side to side as I push it into the seal.
The cup-shaped seal is very flimsy and is easy to distort but I have found that doing the above has worked for me and I hope it helps you to remain leak-free.

Here's a pic of my iSub collection and I suppose I've been lucky as I haven't had any leaking issues with any of them.

sydsut Is there much difference to the Apex one? I've been toying with the idea of trying one but not sure aside from the top fill if they vape any different to the others in the range?
