Does the cobra leak?

[Dusif]

Does the cobra from fasttech leak when you lay down your mod or is it just as good at holding its liquid as the protank?

the cobra copy is a genesis type atty and is a different type of tank, there are holes in the deck for wicks and filing while i dont have the copy, most geni's will leak when layed on their sides some take a lot longer then others though, my real cobra takes about 1/2hr before any leaking starts and even then it stays inside the top cap.

just so its clear the cobra is a rebuildable, YOU have to build the wick and wrap the coil for it to work.

That i do know... Im about 15 minutes more left alone (my better half is out with her sister) until i place 3 orders at fasttech wich would be a kts mech mod, 2 panasonic 18650 batteries and a cobra tank...
So i need to know if i can keep the sob in my pocket all day and place it on the table without having lumumba flavored liquid all over the place

like i said the rate of leakage will depend on how they built it but sitting upright in your pocket type of thing is fine, they dont splash leak.. i regularly lay mine on the car seat while i do this or that for a few minutes but i wouldnt leave it there.

Ok that sounds good ... I was thinking it should be my nighttime luxury vape as a dualcoil setup
Now i just need to know what kinda security stuff i need... I know i need something like a 2cent... But where do i get something lile that cheap?

Thinking "cheap" when looking at safety is a bad mistake. Look for good instead.

Any RBA with a side air hole *can* leak if laid on it's side. Some just more than others.

places like rtdvapors and many others have the 2 cent or i thing the one there is the vape safe or something like that best you can do is maybe find a dollar difference on them if your lucky. it is reusable i believe so its a one time thing. you can go that way or get protected batteries instead.

with a mech make sure you get a multi meter unless you have a mod that can read resistance. and wick/wire and your set.
beyond that have fun, spend some time in the rba forums for tips and tricks, and let us know how it goes.

They aren't cheap, but they are re-usable. I'd feel much safer using a Vape Safe fuse than I would protected batteries, having had a protected Trustfire battery go thermal in a mechanical.

I got a vamo for reading the ohms and found a 2cent for just under 10$
