best dripper out there and that doesn't leak

[vapero]

Hello, I'm vapero and I'm a dripper
I've been dripping for a bit more than a month exclusively and love it the only issue that I have is leakage
I have a Phoenix V5, IGO-L and IGO-w so far the IGO-W is my fave but every one of them leaks from time to time when in my pocket and this is really frustrating, I have to always check if they are upright or with the air-hole facing up in my pocket.. so what would be the best dripper that doesn't leak? I was seeing that there are a few with adjustable air flow and thinking you can just adjust to zero and don't have to worry about it but don't know.

What am I missing? what is the best rda for dripping out there?
I don't plan to make dual or quad-coils just yet but been venturing into the sub-ohms a bit
please don't recommend a REO I know about them and plan to get one, but in the meantime what would you suggest?

thanks

Those things hate pockets. All ecigs hate pockets, unless you're a cigalike. If you keep putting it in your pocket, it's going to keep on leaking. There is no way around that. My suggestion: don't put it in your pocket.

no leaking is not going to happen with a dripper, especially a rebuildable.

the best you can do is vape it close to dry before pocketing it.

Depending on tube mech (and battery used) and RDA length... a 25mm X 150mm pyrex or polycarbonate test tube will hold a "wet one" for ya'. It'll still leak, but not on you. ;-)

Better idea, get a battery case, like we use to carry our 18650's etc. safely. Get a small plastic bag. Put your dripper in the bag, and then in the box.The box should keep it upright, if you keep the box upright. It the box shuffles onto its side, any leakage you have will be in a plastic bag and a box. Not your pocket. Then you could carry a couple drippers and tips on your person, without fear of a nicotine covered phone, or change, or whatever.

so the ones with adjustable airflow still leak when closed?

I'm toying with the idea of using a wide rubber band and cover the air hole when in the pocket

don't pay too much attention to the image, it was the first that came up but something like this.
for me it has never leaked from the driptip so this probably will work a bit

 

[vapero]

there should be drippers with a lock ring similar to the ones in bottom button mechs to cover the airhole

Why don't you just use cotton and only put as much joose as the cotton can absorb. Done...no leaking. Look at an Omega, Helios, etc etc

it doesn't leak that bad, just enough to get a few drops on the outside of the RDA and make my hands smell all day long, that is what's bothering me, I use cotton and I'm not using a lot of liquid but those few drops now and then are enough for me smelling like a hooka as my wife complains!

it was really easy using evods and forgetting they where in the pocket until I wanted to vape, but I'm not going back to those just for the convenience

immortalizer rda maybe? just don't drip to the point wick is not absorbing anymore as stated above

 

[Mitey F]

Fill the drip well with wick. I have been using RDA's exclusively for about 6 months, and have one in my pocket at ALL times when I'm not at home. I never worry about leakage.

Anyone who tells you drippers leak no matter what have no idea what they're talking about, or don't know how to set up an RDA for pocket carry.

 

[vapero]

thinking about it I think this would be a great almost leak proof design, I get that the airhole extension would be a costly manufacturing issue but well I like to dream...
you will need a lot of liquid for it to leak and way before it does it will definitely flood the coils

Trident? It has adjustable air holes so when you put it in your pocket you can close off the hole

 

[sawtoothscream]

I like the trident, awesome dripper. So far no leaking issues for me, its sealed really tight. I have dont over fill it
