Hello I am writing to ask has anybody ever managed to vape a protank evod or any other bcc all the way to the end of the tank.i asked because I have tried everything I think nano coils with cotton micro coils with cotton vertical micro coils with cotton as well as using the silica ego wool method of wicking but every time the tank gets to the join on the base it floods and juice gets into the vapour chamber.i have spent quite a lot of money on vaping in the last few weeks and prefer it to smoking but this with the flooding is PITA.Should I just move to dripping or a good rba that will not flood or carry on with my protank s and keep chucking juice down drain every time I want a change of flavour I know it's only a small amount wasted but I hate doing it they work fine all the way to the join but then flood
Bcc they all leak

Pour it back in the original bottle.
FWIW, I vape my Evods all the way down to nothing and don't have a problem with leaks.

The only ones from your list I have are the eVods. I don't re-coil any of mine and I've not experienced a leaking problem at all. I try to catch them before they are dry to avoid the burnt taste but I do vape 'til almost empty. Most of my flavors are mixed at 50/50 if that helps at all.
I vape my evods to dry rather often (usually when I want to clean or switch flavors) and I have never had a leak or flood other than from a toasted coil. I do not build my own, I use the kanger replacements - 5 for 5 bucks 1.8 Ohm. But I have at least 15 or more evods/protanks between myself and other half and never a leak.
Juice mixtures could also cause leaks.. High PG levels are known to be a lot thinner than higher VG.
I am on your side though... Hate BCC good vape but they are leaky .......s.
Can I suggest if you can invest in a Kayfun since your already rebuilding anyways.
Love my Kayfun Never ever ever ever leaks and vape is by far the best grab n go I have found.

Its not that i have anything against the bcc design it gives a great vape but i want to vape it almost dry i would tip the juice back in the bottle but dark juices get darker as they warm up so it looks rather bad nearing the end.I will add i vape rather a lot so my juice maybe thinning down as i go due to the heat perhaps its just one of those days where it all goes wrong!
I like the idea of a kayfun but the price puts me off this close to christmas two small children here waiting for father christmas (santa) they would not be impressed with a kayfun lol.
just broke out a new i clear 16 for tomorrow at work hope its reliable as i can't stop work to sort out my vape gear they already think i am nuts joking aside the pro tank works well when full with a 1.6omh vertical nano coil

my 50/50 always leaked as i got down to the end on a protank, but the aspire vivi doesnt leak at all for me.
The first couple of weeks I had some problems with leaking BCCs.
By that point, I'd indentified the problems, learned what to do about 'em and haven't had any problems since.
Just sayin'

I have and Vape dry - Protank, Protank2, Protank2-mini, (2) Protank2/mini clones, Evods and T3 Mini's. I use all of these wuite frequently with little to no issues.
I Vape 50/50 blends of all my flavors
Avg. 7 watts power on several different devices.
All these are unaltered with exception of 2-3 standard coil rebuilds on the T3-mini's(age related)
Sorry, but I have no idea what Op is doing wrong, or what I may be doing right.

Protank, t3 and t3s.
No leaking and I vape them till they are dry.
Setup is microcoil with cotton as wicks and ekowool as flavor wicks. Took a bit of trial and error. Using cotton as flavor wicks caused leaking issues for me.
Take some time to try different flavor wicks and size of the flavor wicks. I believe most leaks can be solved by using the right size/type for your vaping style/device.

Protank 2 with standard atty heads - no leaking/vape 'till dry. I don't remove a flavor wick like some recommend.
I've never let any device get less than half full. Also never had a pro tank leak. But I store them upside down.
The only tank I have tried so far that has had ZERO leaks the Aspire ET-S BDC. All the others I have tried leak at some point.
T3 is the only BCC i ever had leak on me,and that was when the juice level got down to 1\4
if you are rebuilding your heads ,you may niot be using enough wick in there to stop the over flow of juice ?
i either use the stock protank heads or rebuild them with a 2mm eko,nothing else

I use 80/20 pg/vg in my evod with 1.8 ohm heads & haven't rebuilt any. Never had any real leaks other than once in a while a drop on the connector. I don't remove any of the flavor wick except when I'm cleaning the head & then I put them back. Never have a problem when the tank gets low.
Make sure everything is TIGHT!! I made this mistake on my protank and floods at the slightest loose part! Tighten the coil in into the base and base into the tank tight!!
well i changed my juice ratios and yippee they work fine no flooding 30/70 pg vg and its going well i like the taste i am getting now and more importantly no flooding must have been having a bad day or two got 2 pro tanks ,1 pro tank mini2,3 evods all running like a dream!
