I’ve had mine for 2-3 weeks now and just checked mine. Mine is dry. I wonder if it could have anything to do with the type of flavors used in the liquid. I’ve been using a Diy lemon meringue pie recipe since I got it. Perhaps some flavors react with the seals or plastic?
To continue on in my trouble shooting I just filled my pod left the seal open for a few minutes to let any air bubbles work their way out, then left it on a piece of paper while I went to have a shower; air vent closed, cap on just to find out if the cap was functional in the way it worked. Came back 10 mins later and sure enough, half the juice had leaked out onto the paper. So its not something that's happening while its in use. I'm almost convinced its the coils and not the pods. Maybe the cotton is too porous or something and its acting just like an open hole for the juice to drain out of.
Mines with both coils using the recommended wattage on the coils.
I thought the same, so I upped to wattages while this helped, started leaking after 15mins or so.
I have bought extra coils and empty pods from other vendors, just to see if it was a batch issue and sadly none helped.
I also, filled and left pod and sadly it had leaked quite a lot of my juice.
I will email geek vape with photos etc.
Well I thought I had it with the new coil. Worked perfectly for a few hours, then I checked and noticed a tiny bit of residue, wiped it off, put it back in, gave it a few minutes, and now its back to full on leaking. So I've tried 3 pods, umpteen coils (6 that came with the pods, and 1 on its own) and they all leak. Either its the mod itself putting pressure on something or a combination of them. Either way I give up. Just running my finger across the seam of the pod is enough to draw the fluid out.
Well yesterday I changed from a Nic Salt to Freebase which also means I went from a 50/50 to a 70/30 mix. Not a drop has leaked out of the pod since the change.
The same here, the Boost received and I would recommend it strongly to anyone who cares about the flavour. Was most impressed by the stock coils but rba on the way as well. Also, the Boost is sooooo light, I think pretty the same weight as the small Caliburn!! However, negative points for me: the filling port is terrible with that rubber cap, the pod itself could be more transparent to see the liquid content. Apart from that a perfect pod mod device, surely the best on the market. Good job Geekvape. To grade it - 9/10.
funny enough, i got this kit purely for salt nic and i have only been using salt nic in this. i shall try with normal e liquid and see but thats pointless its a pod mod kit that should be able to handle sat nic.
I only got this device for salt nic!
still nothing regarding the rba pod, still cant find it anywhere!
No leaking on 60/40 vg liquid. The RBA available from China 3 weeks already..
Junny89, this just cannot be. The lekage could only happen because of a defected coil but if you changed several from different sources - no way. I am pretty sure you're doing smth wrong. Could it be you didn't place the coil correctly into its small slots? Most probable this shozld be the cause. Or, maybe - did you close the filling port properly? A 50/50 could be a smaller possibility, go and try 70/30 although it should run on 50/50 without a problem.
Yes, go ahead and send photos to Geekvape. I am sure they'll explain and replace the pod/coils if necessary.
Good luck with it.
It's a little hard to see but I just go off of the battery indicator on the display.
Mine went from the display being on to the battery display flashing. After about 15 seconds the display turns off completely. It sounds like yours is working normally.
I’m still on the first coil (mtl) and pod, 50/50 juice.... no leaking. It’s time to change the coil, but I think I’ll wait till after my trip. Don’t want it to leak on the drive home. I was going to buy a second Boost until I started reading here. If the rba seems to solve the problem, may grab a few of those, but not a second Boost. Too close to May to be spending on something that may or may not work well. Instead I got a second Squid Squad with the rba tank (glass tank, not a plastic pod).
I ordered two of the boost kits blind. I've had no leaking issues running 70/30 and am also on my first coil still. I ordered three pods with coils and got them in the mail the other day. I may try another pod and coil just to see if I start having any of the leaking issues mentioned.
I’ve had great experiences with all my Geekvape gear, so the leaking issues many seem to be having surprised me. Even the Frenzy has held up well (as a stealth mod with higher nic), but the af is on the tight side for me.
The frenzy just didn't end up being a good one for me. I agree about the airflow being too tight. That's why I boxed it up and put it away in my stash.
