Clear-tank rebuildable atomizer with largest "upside down capacity".

[cadcoke5]

I have tried 7 different styles of cartomizers/clearomizers/clear cartomizers/and "drip-omizers". And settled that I definitely want a clear tank with a rebuildable head... but most important of all, I need something that doesn't leak in any position.

So far, it seems the Stardust clearomizer was the best, having never leaked on me, and with visible contents. But, it wasn't rebuildable.

I have a theory that, in order to be non-leaking, the liquid must never be permitted to be up to the wick hole level. Otherwise changes in air pressure or temperature will force liquid into the center air-flow chamber, and then leak out. It is important to realize that this is for ANY POSITION. So, a tank that says it holds 2ml upright, But, if it takes 0.5ml to fill up to the wick hole while upside-down or sideways, its leak-proof capacity is only 0.5 if it is ever permitted to be non-upright.

So, the Vivi Nova seems now to be my only choice. So, my question to Discount Vapers is, What is your largest capacity clear tank atomizer, in the Vivi Nova style, if you hold your e-cig sideways or upside-down?

Thank You,
Joe Dunfee

get a T3 you fill it upside down to begin with and the heads are replaceable/rebuildible.

Thanks for the reply, but you misunderstood my actual needs. The the Kanger T3 has holes at the bottom of the tank. If the unit is upright, changes in air pressure will force liquid into the atomizer chamber, and therefore it will leak. (if the the unit is left with liquid inside for too long)

Although my thread title refers to upside-down capacity, I am really seeking a large storage area with the liquid level away from holes into the atomizer chamber in ANY position. But, the upside-down capacity seems to be the smallest capacity in most clearomizers, so that is how I titled it.

Thanks again for your effort, though.

Then Vivi Nova seems to be your best bet. Interestingly, it's *more* likely to leak than Kanger T3 or Vapeonly BCC tanks, which are both bottom coils.

Today I received my iClear 30. It seemed to have the benefits of the Viva Nova, plus the dual coil, which I like.

Regarding the topic of the thread, its capacity; if you choose to stay below the wick holes in any position the capacity is 2ml. This is what it will hold in either vertical or sideways position. Well, actually it is a little under that if you put it at 45 degrees from upside-down.

If my theory holds true, 2ml is what it should hold, and not leak because of changes in atmospheric pressure. However, note that I did notice a bit of "leaking". But, I don't think this was from leaking through the wick area. Rather, it was from vapor condensation in the mouthpiece. I think that since the nozzle can be aimed to the side, when the unit is placed on its side, the nozzle will drain any condensation out the end.
