Are there any (high end) e-cigs out there that do NOT leak?

So I've been vaping an ego-t for a few months now, and lately it has been leaking like crazy. What is strange is, every combination of atty/tank/battery is leaking, so am not sure why this just happened now.

Anyway, would be very interested in knowing is there are ecigs out there that are constructed in such a way that this is *not* an issue. I certainly do not mind paying a premium if there is. What I would really like to avoid is spending a lot of my time on hacking/modding/changing/etc my current ego-t to get around the problem; just want to pay, vape, and go. Having the ejuice everywhere (including my lips) is pretty gross :)

I use cartomizers and haven't had a problem with leaking. I just make sure that no juice is coming out of the bottom when I fill them. Works like a charm.

It doesn't really matter if your PV is high-end or not. Leaks sometimes happen. My atties will sometimes leak when I'm dripping, but that's because I've put too much juice in them.

Yeah I'm with WomanOfHeart on this one.

Just get cartos, my faves are boge 510s or ce2 510s (not clearos), real high end at 10 bucks a 5 pack lol. Hook em up to whatever u like, just don't overfill.

Leo cartos are phenomenal as well but that would require a leo and I don't think u really need to replace your ego with basically the same thing.

Boge cartomizers, if properly filled, cleaned up and allowed to settle will sometimes only ever leak or spit the tiniest bit. I don't spin them to force in extra juice, I don't push the juice in blind. I pop the top, fill totally (18+ drops) clean it up well (threads, blow into threaded end to clear out air channel, sop up any extra juice in the top of the stuffing) then on a blank's first fill I lay it on different sides to settles for 15-20 min. Subsequently I add a bit of juice whenever the vapor gets a bit light or a bit drip or the carto is getting too warm (don't want to singe the stuffing).

Thanks for the info; I just smoked my first analog in months because I am so sick of the juice everywhere. What cartos for the ego-t attys are the easiest to fill? I have heard some require syringes and whatnot.

[EDIT] Just realized that a carto contains the atty as well, so I guess any 510 carto will do?

Yeah so long as its 510 threads, boge soft tips are simple u just open the back and drip in to em, tilt it and spin it as u fill (kinda like pouring a beer).

Try not to get juice down the air tube in the middle but its no real big deal.

Overfill and they might drip a tidge but it'll be on top the battery not on your hands and it'll just be a tiny amount.

Boge cartos are my daily vape and cheap too! You can grab 15 of them for less than $20 shipped from Crystal clear Vaping heres the link 15 Boge Carto Deal (510) It's not the unit that is leaking, It's the carto or atty, usually from incorrect or over filling. There is a slight learning curve when it comes to vaping...but once you figure it out....it's like second nature. A little juice here and there, isn't worth going back to analogs IMHO.:2c:

Thanks all. Got some cartos and really like them (only downside being a bit of a pain to fill). I like that I don't have to worry about how to clean atty, etc. I got some boge and some EGO ones, and definitely like the boge, better. It is easier to fill (condom method + spinning) and has an easier draw. It looks a bit funny on my EGO battery, but I could care less about that. For the EGO, the syringe I got from Liberty Flights was too big (14 guage I think), and the biggest one my local pharmacy had was 22 guage, which takes a bit of work. Gotta find an 18 guage. Will check out the Reos for now, but am off to a month long biz trip in the UK and am glad for now that I won't be covered in juice!
