I've never used a de-bridged atty, but I was looking over a FSUSA a while ago. They sell them and one of the statements in the description was to use less drops than you would with a regular atty to prevent it from happening. So, that must be a potential problem of a de-bridged atty. Hopefully someone who uses them will chime in soon.

Im new to vaping and to the forum, and I was just about to post the same thing other than the fact that my atty is unaltered. I am using the eGo and while putting it to normal use I've noticed leaking also. I felt like the liquid was running out too fast, and took the cap off and sure enough the cap and the battery as well as the outside of the atty had juice on them. I havent been adding juice until I start tasting the burnt flavor, but maybe I am just still adding too early. the part of the filler that contacts the atty bridge is dry, and at one point even looked a little burnt. I refilled my cart three times during my shift and that wasnt constant use. Am I doing something wrong?

This is why I gave up on using cartridges. If you haven't already, search some of the different mods people have been using for the filler (like the blue foam, straw mod, etc...). You may have better luck using a different type of filler. I finally just gave up fiddling around, trying different things and bought a drip tip and cartomizers. Life is much simpler now. I drip at home and use cartomizers for on the go.

edit: Also, you may be having that the leaking problem if your filler is too compacted. The juice will not flow out properly from the top. It will take longer for it to reach the atty.

I started testing out the dripping this morning while relaxing before bed, and I have found that three drops are lasting longer than my cart and giving me MUCH better of a vaping experience!! I have a Joye mega 510 battery and blank LR cartos coming in today, so I should have all of my options for great vaping right in front of me except for a high volt battery.

I finally fixed my problem, i wasn't sucking hard enough. I was reading some reviews and it said that if you suck hard you get liquid in your mouth, so i tried kinda going panzy at it lol. I also cleaned the atty buy doing the boiling water method and no leaks so far. I want to thank everyone here though for your support, I will also start using more VG juice so less of a leakage on the battery. :D
