as others have said - the lemo is fairly leak free. I've got orchids and now a billow, and a goblin on the way - which all will leak if on side but as I only use in house and keep upright I'm not fussed. I use pennys and spheroids for leak free situations and if i'm nipping out its protank mini's on istick. (I wont miss them If I drive car over them!) but I have to admit, my protank experience has been ruined since I got my rebuildables

I like the look of the Lemo drop but it looks a lot of faffing about, I like the Russian because it's easy to topfill, part of the reason I'm trying to find something as leak frree as I can is because I spend a lot of time out on my boat so what ever I get always falls over and leaks if it's not in a stand, as I said I love the vape the Orchid gives and was wondering if I got one of those 22mm silicone anti slip rings These and slid it down over the airhole when not in use it would stop it leaking, might be worth a try,, Mow,,,

Anyone that says that there RTA doesn't leak should add the word YET to their statement. Some take longer than others to get to the tank dumping stage and this is accelerated by poor building and/or by being a clone

Tanks most prone to dumping their contents rely on vacuum / pressure, eliminate this & you reduce the risk of leaks.

Nobody has mentioned the Taifun GT. I picked one of these up quite recently. I own a few different RTA's now and of all of them it seems to be the least leaky so far. Just need to make sure the wick fills the holes on the chamber bit and it's good to go. Not sure if they rely on a vacuum so much as kayfuns etc? So could tie in with what 300 said above?

I like the Foggers, the V6 being the nicest. The only time it will widdle a little is if you refill it with the airflow open coz its top fill and gravity is not your friend.

Another vote for the lemo neither of mine leak nor do I expect them to as long as I don't screw up the wicking and given how forgiving the lemo is with wicking that's not easy. My subtank doesn't leak either with rba section but some people seem to have a problem with them Ithink if the wicking is good most tanks are pretty good.

I'm liking the Taifun GT V2, from every review it's almost exactly what I'm looking for, the only thing is it's flipping huge and I really need something to go on my Isticks, but I think I could live with the 1.5 overhang each side, trouble is at 80mm high it's taller than my Istick, so far I must have looked at everything and they all have leak issues apart from the Taifun, I'm trying to save money but I know if I go for the Taifun I'll end up buying a new Mod to go with it,
Something puzuzzling me though! I run my Orchid with a 1.4ohm coil and Jap cotton, I also run my Protank 2 exactly the same, both are vaped at 6.5w so why does the same juice taste totally different in each one, I know the coil dia is bigger in the Orchid than the protank but they are still 1.4ohm, so is it down to the amount of cotton wick in each one? Gis a clue someone!

Gis a clue someone! Mow,,, I think it's to do with design and airflow combined.With the Protank 2 and the V2 of the airflow controller it's still a LOT less airflow than the Orchid I would think. Having seen you say that you vape at low watts like I do ( I normally vape at between 8 and 10 watts ) I would urge you AGAIN to try the Subtank Nano , it gives me a lovely sweet and relatively cool vape.I prefer sweet vapes including sweet fruit flavours , so the match is perfect.

Thinking about it I think your right! as my tanks have gone up in size the flavour has been better, the Protank and Iclear 30s were a great improvement on the Evod Glass, and the Orchid is the dog for flavour, so it's sort of 15mm 19mm then 22mm I know you can't compare standard atties to RTA's and RBA's, I just wondered why when I'm running them at the same watts, similar airflow, same juice and same ohm coils they taste so different,
Andy! I don't know what it is with the Sub tank for some reason I just don't like the look of them, I know I hate the colour Orange so it could just be the O-Rings,,

Another vote for the Lemo/Lemo Drops... I have 3 of them and all 3 are in daily use... never leaked and so simple to build... even better, they come with a 1.1 ohm coil already installed which lasts for ages with a little dry burn every time you re-wick I vote for the Lemo/Lemo Drop and totally agree with all that lairey says above
I have a few Lemo's and out of all the RTA's I've tried so far, (and there have been quite a few ) these have been the best by far for not leaking.

You can get a O-Ring pack for the Subtank range from HERE , it may change the look for you. Andy
