Sue, is it your cartos or tanks that are leaking?

[Gordy]

awww Sue, are you still using that APL ?
I personally have high hopes for these there are a few of us that have ordered some so its worth keeping an eye out over the next few days to see how they perform.

No Gordy i binned it ages ago it was awful! Been using the ego but whatever i use it leaks & i only put a few drops in? driving me crazy feel like giving it up....willing to try a really good one but which is best to get? ???

Have you used cartomisers or echomisers yet Sue? Because they don't leak and are pretty bomb proof. At least to get you over the tricky spot.

[Tetsab]

I'd agree with Jason's suggestion of cartomisers or Echomisers with one small reservation - James was kind enough to send me a sample of the Tiger's Blood a while ago and I loved the taste but found it gunked up an Echomiser rather rapidly. I'm not very sure whether this was due to the colour - often found that the deeper the colour of a liquid the faster things gum up - or maybe more VG than the Echo was happy with. If the latter, James will always adjust the proportion of PG on request.

Should have tried again with a smaller carto (eg one of the Kanger Horizontal coils) maybe but just haven't got round to it yet. As long as you're using a sealed battery like an eGo, Riva etc they're good as gold, I've never had any leaks with these or the Echos. If using on an auto batt like a KR808D-1 or VGO you need to be careful to avoid overfilling as this can risk the dreaded liquid-into-battery mucking up the switch but apart from that they don't seem to leak at all.

I'd agree about using cartomisers. I would think the only way you would get a leak from them is if you get juice in the air hole when you top them up. I always give them a good blow through when I fill them and usually get a few drops out that way, but I have never known them to leak in use. Leaks are always a possibility with any kind of tank or clearo system though I suspect.

[Chrissie]

Sue, I'm guessing that means you are using atomisers & cartridges? Do give cartomisers a go.

These leaked like a sieve for me and kept on getting liquid in the breathing tube, gurgling and flooding the atomiser.

I'd recommend the Kangers or Boge carto's. Or the vision Stardust as Gordy recommends.

It sounds like you are using the atomiser that came with your e-cig and they are only good for dripping.

[syycoe]

as much as i like the tigers blood it is killing a carto in less than a day..i am getting it everywhere as well you may notice it more as it is a vibrant red ,i am not using it any differently than anything else it just shows up absolutely everywhere end of battery ,drip tip, on my lips and blood splattered hands...my kids thought i had hurt myself it seems to get in places you did not know were there...but it is bloody lovely...excuse the pun

They look good Gordy

Do they fit the Riva?

Do they last longer than cartomisers?

Excuse my ignorance :-[

[Perpetua]

They'll fit your Riva perfectly Whufc . . . not sure how long they last, as waiting for mine to be delivered as a number of us are.

But you can re-wick them if you've a mind to.
