I personally bought a Kanger Unitank today, and it is the smoothest tank iv ever gotten. I have had some others before and awlays felt like there were bits of juice getting in my mouth, on top of that there was the gurgling and flooding but so far on day one I've noticed a huge diff, ill let you know what its like after a couple more tank fills

If you are looking to upgrade please feel free to learn from my research and near 1,000 dollars spent. I can't say I am experienced in building atomizers but I sure have done my research and fair amount of experimenting/successful rebuilds.
The end all of no leaks, big vapor clouds and efficiency of build vs ease of use:
Provari v2 topped with Svoe Mesto Kayfun lite.

Previous to this setup i used a zen atty pro at home and a protank 2 for on the go. I found that I don't like having to baby a genesis style atomizer (tilting to feed juice, always upright.)

The protank got the most use and the most rebuilds. I rebuilt it with cotton and found great success with no leaks/gurgling or dry hits. I watched enough videos and such that rebuilding these was easy to get right in quick order after the first few attempts. HOWEVER with protank I was melting the rubber grommet that seals the positive coil leg from the body.

Don't get me wrong protank works very well but I like to take long or consecutive vapes and this just wasn't possible for me without the rubber fouling up my game.

I found I had a new coil that was shorting in the T3S - and one that might as well have been was draining the batteries very fast - needless to say took a little while to catch on since it was more than one coil. I have not had any other problems with the T3S hopefully
the coils will get improved. Now am fiddling with the C4s to stop the leaks on top of my batteries seems others havehad this problem and are adjusting the center post - will give it a try

That's why we always recommend using a multimeter to check resistance. You can kill an eGo class battery with a shorted (or very low res) atomizer.

Friend you are doing something wrong. I have just about every device that can be put on a mod. I have never and I say it again never had an ongoing leaking problem with any of my tanks,(carto) clearos protank, evod,etc. I have had a couple of leaks but they were my fault. If it is a carto tank then you have to big or to many holes in the carto if it is getting up to your mouth. if it is a protank style than you need to go to you tube and look up some fixes for them I have seen the videos but never had the problem. I am using a protank 2 right now and I have been using it for a couple of months the only thing I do is change the heads.( I do rebuild them myself) so you need to figure out exactly what YOU are doing and start with that. there are proper ways to fill a carto tank and if you do it wrong it will give you a problem good luck tell us more of what you are doing and then we will be able to help more. trust me if everyone was having the problem no one would vape so it has to be operator error.

When I first started vaping I thought the snap crackle pop..fizzle was abnormal and referred to it as a gurgle. And thought my tanks were leaking because the juices would accumulate on the rubber seal on the atomizer head. Once I was told that is all that is normal. All is well...plus found my draw technique was off also- slow ...long draws are the best. Takes practice but once i put down the stinkies and only vaped it became a lot easier to vape correctly.

I have the same problem with the kanger heads- taste of plastic/rubber fouling up my taste.
HOWEVER with protank I was melting the rubber grommet that seals the positive coil leg from the body.
