It's leaking out the bottom airholes? That's never happened to me at all it's never so much as leaked a drop on me. I think there's definitely something wrong with the tank you got. Did you put the tri-coil in yourself? or just vape it right out of the box? I would dis-assemble everything and make sure everything is in place on the bottom of the glass there should be a white o-ring that goes in. Mines been upside down, sideways for hours, and plenty of different positions and I've never had any leaks out of the airholes. It could just be a faulty tank.

Yes, leaking like a sieve. I think the problem may be the coil cartridge fitting, not the tank.
I did disassemble/clean the tank before vaping and made sure of fittings, rings, etc.., and again this evening, still spilling everywhere.

This tank was a disaster out on the town today. Ejuice in one end and out the other all day and only got worse along the way, and a mouthful of juice too.

Here's that ill-formed ring on the tri coil. That thing don't look good man.

I've since replaced that tri-coil with the TF-R2 (dual-coil rta) and that's vaping nicely, so far (30 minutes). No signs of leaking yet with the R2 coil. We'll see how it travels tomorrow.

It looks like it was the coil. It shouldn't leak anymore, just a bad coil. Let me know how it holds up.

Seems I was having o-ring issues (stock tri-coil was janky as heck). Long story, but the short of it is that the R2 rta is now going strong after a ring tweak and is vaping like a beast.
I love the idea of a dual coil rta tank, and that's really what sold me on this TFv4 tank (R2 atty is sold separately). Going strong right now. Big thick clouds of warm vapor via dual coils on a rebuildable. Just how I like it. It's awesome.
So at the moment I am quite happy with this tank. Will report any other issues if they come up.

I had the same issue with my stock tri-coil

I guess some people said you can run a fuse in it and if you ran a vtc4 in it. It might OK. A mech that is. From what I've seen. Online anyway. The smallest 100w device seems to be the istick 100. But maybe my eyes betray me. And the battery life isn't the issue. It's the amount of amps it takes to push those watts. I'm currently using an ipv d2 which tops out at 75w. But my next upgrade will probably be an x cube 2. Not saying that's a small mod but its just what I want next

Thanks to your input, I pulled the string and ordered an IPV D2 today. Anxious to try the tc mode with the TFV4 and if it gives a good vape, may have to get a black TFV4 for a Christmas present for me! Vaping is GOOOOOOOOOOD! :vapor::)

Very hard to say which is the best. All depends on the user. I have like 12 of them. High or low watts. Mouth to lung or strait lung hitter. Easy to change cotton on stock coils or does one rebuild. To many variables but picking one for high and low watts and ease of dryburning stock coil and just rewicking the Isub G is hard to beat. Also it is one of the cheaper subtanks on the market. One will never know how good a tank can be if you do not rebuild stock coils. All stock coils can be improved. CHEERS!

I'm gonna go a bit off the mark here and say the Smok TCT (and VCT Pro- same tank) and the Uwell Crown are my current favorites. I'm more about flavor than I am clouds, although these both put out decent clouds as well. But, for flavor I've not had better. And I own a TFV4. For clouds unquestionably the TFV4 is tops. That thing rolls fog! Literally. But, myself I prefer the flavor on the TCT and The Crown.
