All of mine are from vape escape, some leak some don't. I don't believe it's down to any of the vendors. They are just inconsistant full stop. It's not a perfect art but it's still better than smoking.

Where abouts do you live? Maybe someone could meet up and help you out

I have had numerous different kinds of clearos , visions and a mini nova , some don't seal properly against the silicone insert above the wick , some crack near the base , and some I have found the wick to be too good and overwick juice into the coil and therefore the mouthpiece . However I have found the most consistent ( free from leaks ) to be the mini nova and the rebuildable vision , I still get a little bit of over wicking but a quick flick empties the mouthpiece / coil area . Don't worry Greeny you are not alone with your troubles

Finding a delivery system and a flavour(s) that work for you can be trial & error Greeny . . . but so very worth it when you find them. Hope your new purchases work for you, I'm sure they will.

Hope it doesn't put you off to much Greeny you've ordered from a good vender and I haven't had any problems with any of my kit from them

Hi Greeny, pretty much as everyone has already said there does seem to be the odd clearo that will leak, bought my kit from Dan also and have had no problems, (prefer the rectangular tip too) my better half bought 5 recently and 2 of them leaked on 1st use.
luck of the draw i guess, however i'm sure a reputable vendor will gladly replace them if you let them know.

I have a shed load of leaky CE4 clearo's, some just arrived like it, others have broken after a couple of weeks.
After inspecting them, most have cracked at the clear plastic. Almost always at the base.
Some have bent / misaligned centre post's causing juice to leak down into the battery.
Some have the rubber seal missing on the mouthpiece.
In addition, all of the clearo's I have (including Nova's, Kanger T3's and rebuildable CE5's) will eventually leak some juice into the mouthpiece if left upside down for too long.
Edit - I haven't managed to break any Vivi Nova's yet, despite much more use and abuse than the CE4's. They are well worth the extra money.

Don't worry about spending money , some of it goes down the sink or in the bin , the positive is " you have learned something " . After a good few months relatively spend free another batch of must haves , became available , thats about £200 for me already this month , but the positive side is I have the money to buy coz I am cig free

I am sure you are aware of this, please forgive me if you are, but are you inhaling the Vape really slowly, it`s the opposite of the ciggies. Really?? Well I honestly wouldn't have known this. Good to know before my kits arrives tomorrow.

Gary, the clearos that arrived leaky, did you get in touch with the vendor? If not do so! Most of the e-cig vendors will really try to help if there's a problem. If you don't tell them, then they don't know, and will carry on buying themselves from the same supplier Vivi Novas - make sure that your not unscrewing the head when you're taking the top off to refill

Thanks for the suggestions guys, I bought a few of them such as the boge low resistance and a nano however these are the best thing I got and indeed used so far, not perfect (still lacks a bit of kick I feel or maybe I am expecting too much, best so far though and no leakage *touch wood www.vapeescape.co.uk/vision-ego-rainbow-v3-rebuildable~388still on stinkies though

Greeny, if you are still on stinkies that suggests to me that maybe your juice is not strong enough. Higher nic juice will also give you a bit more TH. If you know what flavours you like already, preferably one you already have, get the highest nic content you can in that juice. If it's too much, you can dilute it with some of the lower nic version you have already. What strength are you using currently?

I may get slated down on this one, but I jumped into 36mg nic being a 25 / 40 a day rolly smoker and that worked a charm. Not for an all day thing, but when I find myself needing a stinkie I just vape on that and a few mins later craving gone. Then its back to my 24mg day vape or my home made 27mg American Red Tobacco mix. How much do you smoke and what nic you using currently?

Most of the ones I have are 18-20 or 24 mg I got one 36 benson & hedges but its harsh as hell and i cant use that, its rank (i smoke roll ups golden viginia, but use flavoured papers have done for years, either coconut (cant get them anymore though) or bubblegum,blackberry brandy or blueberry (these are flavour of papers i use)
as for liquids I have nit found one I like all that much and tried about 10 blueberry is ok some of the baccy flavours not bad, most taste pretty much the same though to me
