I agree with the others here,,
The first step in successful troubleshooting is Eliminating the User as the Source of the Problem...
I am a Quality Control / Customer Service Support Tech for a major computer / electronics corp,,,, I like to tinker with stuff, like Cars, Computers, Firearms,,etc...
With that said,,,, I use Kanger T3's, T3 minis, and protank minis,,,, almost exclusively,,, Yes there are a multitude of other tanks / brands available however the T3's provide me with exactly what I need,,,Very reliable and consistent,, works every time all the time.
My girlfriend is not in the least little bit tech savvy,,, for what ever it is,,,, she needs it to "Just Work",,,, Cell phone, TV, Toaster, PV ...
I have her setup with two evod batteries and two T3's,
I charge her batteries at night before going to sleep and fill her tanks in the morning before we both leave for work, change the coils every 7-10 days or so
She vapes throughout day,,,, with no problems at all,,, she comes home after a long 10-12 hr day and continues to vape on the same fill / charge,,,and she is rough on them ,,, she tosses them in her purse,,, she has a case, though she rarely uses it ? she drops them on the table, on the floor, between the seats in the car, she fidgets with them tapping them on the table / desk, she has actually knocked the heads off a couple of batteries, but a little epoxy takes care of that issue,,,
So with her almost constant abuse... The T3's Work,, all day,, every day,,,
I cant speak for the brand you are using but I can for Kanger,,, Very Reliable and Dependable Products
If you are having issues it's probably like the others have said,,, no offense,,, but you are doing something wrong,,, overfilling, pulling too hard, juice to thin,

I was going to answer your questions and give you names of at least five very good atomizers that if you wanted you could search the specs and reviews to ""prove"" to you they are very good, high end atomizers . But after seeing how you treated someone who tried to help you, I'd rather yawn myself. I will give you something to think about though, it's very very very likely user error, that means YOU, are doing something wrong. But instead of helping"' you figure out what that may be I'm going to yawn again. You really should not be so rude to people who are trying to help', it really makes no one _want to help you. And that's sad because this forum has some really nice, educated prope who are usually more than willing to help but with your attitude I don't think people will be so willing to help you out. Please be a little less rude.
How's that reply working out for you?

I have a feeling that the Op is going to be another 1 or 2 post wonder. Y'all notice a trend here?!
Somebody posts an idiotic question, or comment and y'all run them off.
Better than the Ban Hammer if you ask me.

Great, informed, helpful & very nice folks on this forum. Unless you start a pi$$ing contest. That being said, I don't know of any stats like you are requesting. The You Tube videos might help. Personally, I use Kanger with little or no issues. Pro Tank 2's with adj air flow bases V 2;s & Megas. 1.5 ohm coils in the Pro Tanks & 0.8 ohm coils in the V 2's & Megas. Big bore drip tips & VV/VW batteries. The Kanger tanks don't like to be really low on juice. When they get below 1/3 or so I fill them

Just started back vaping and finding my Nautilus mini/maxy & kanger T2 are great. Just trying out 16B clearos today so ill need time to know if its reliable but vapes great. i think things are lots better now than when i vaped before 2 years ago. I did get a iclear 30 with my itaste that failed but it was 1.8 ohm atty so i think it just burned the coil is all. i have vaped 4 months and only replace two coils. i am just learning what Bottom coil designs are senstive too. For me with Top coils its usually wickiing to pay attention to for me. So far after two weeks i really like the kanger T2, they are not expensive, have replaceable attys, and easy to clean and fill.
I am learning too i guess. i am careful & try to prevent any burnt taste so my atty failure rate my be low, but i estimate it has to be better than an atty going 2 or 3 bottles. Most are around 2.5 ohms, so lower ohms my die too. I just tried rebuild-able atty on a mech last night.... wow thats a steep learning curve but managed to make duel coil 0.8 ohm that wicked bad but tasted great. I also learned u must hit those completely different than tanks...... like most i dont like carto's.
When i vaped before there was no VV/VW that was economical for newbies .... now there are lots of options and i would recommend that... different powers for me allow me to vary from mouth to lung inhale ... get a good feel for the heat of my vap .... any way those are a great and maybe too many options for a newbie but allow me to get decent vapes any of the tanks i listed above (i think most none vv/vw stuff is around 3.9v, if u are clue less where to start off) .... the Nautilus has the strongest & best vap and is very convenient. i did once get some e-juice in my mouth but i was abusing it upside down chain vapin it. its never leaked and one can adjust the air.... the cost is high tho compared to plastic tanks.
I need to have at least 50% vg in my tanks to enjoy the vaps often more ..... higher vg Generally makes wicking more a problem than leakage.... at least thats what i found. Anyway, this only my opinion and u will need to find what works for You. May go to vap shop and ask what works best .... for me i told them i want something that NEVER leaks and they recommended the kangor T2 & Nautilus ............. I paid maybe 10 or 20% more for $100 order but it was good advice on variable stuff, dripping and other stuff so worth $20 bucks is my opinion. Later i got what i like by mail order.
I think (hope) i found a good mixture of convenience, economics and taste and hope you do too.

I have great luck with carto tanks (IBT and Ikenvape Create-A-Tanks are my personal favorites), Nautilus and Kanger Aerotanks in the "clearo" category. All work very well for me.
I hope this helps, even if just a bit.

The best 'data' you're going to get is the responses from other's experiences. Oh I've had my share of people saying "this is the best" and "that is the best" yadda yadda, only to have a totally different experience. But if you listen to what's being said and follow consistently the ideas from those who have vaped for years, the worst that can happen is some minor improvement to your vaping experience. There are some real sharp folks on this forum!
That said, I just got a new device which came pre-installed with the iClear 30s. This utilizes an atomizer in a little tube with holes in it that is filled with wicking material. You can read good and bad reviews, but since it came with it I decided to give it a whirl. Many people have complained about low or muted flavor which, unfortunately, is a common characteristic of cartos that are top-mounted. Additionally some complain about a metallic taste too. I first put a 50-50 mix liquid (VG/PG) and I noticed both the muted flavor and metallic taste. That didn't work for me at all but I was able to finish the tank. So I switched to a VG liquid...metallic taste was completely gone, but the flavor was not as powerful. Common for the carto type as well as the character of VG. Still, the flavor was not that bad and apart from the heavy draw on this thing, I call it a winner. After 2 days no gurgling, no leaking, no dry hits at all. Best performer I've had with this type tank.
Good luck finding what suits you.
A REO.
Also, a simple dripper is worth considering.
It's like if you're fed up with automatic transmission so you get manual transmission so you can control it yourself; with a dripper you control the wicking yourself;

First impressions, sometimes folks have no idea how to make a good one.
That being said, sometimes all it takes to get someone to tow the line is a
slap and a heathy dose of cold hard truth.I think some people, including this guy, are looking for a reason not to vape. That's okay, so long as they are up front and nice about it.

I use 5mL PBC Tanks on my Silver bullet. Haven't had any problems as of yet. /crosses fingers. I have 10 of em so it's not like if 1 breaks I'll be sad heh.
kayfun lite plus...nautilus is awesome...innokin i30...these are all great and don't leak, if built (kayfun) right and if coils (other 2) are inserted correctly.
Hey Jimbo.
First, I feel the need to apologize for (1) being so presumptious that I simply posted what's been working for me, and (2) not answering your question, as you so perspicaciously pointed out.
Pursuant to those emotions, I'd like to now offer up my next best suggestion for what I feel will truly suit you best.
