I have a Joye eGo-T Type B using LR attys and I have noticed something odd. When I am vaping inside my house, no probs. Not even a tiny drop of leakage. However, when I am outside, it leaks like a sieve after only a few vapes. The juice I use is from madvapes.com (not sure what their PG/VG ratio is) and, as I said, this only ever happens outdoors.

Any ideas?

Are you covering the air holes or holding it differently outside? I had that problem when driving--worked fine at my desk, juice everywhere in the car. I figured in my effort to be covert I was blocking air flow. Eventually I gave up on it because it was supposed to be my on the go vape.

Also could you be vaping differently when out and about? Faster, longer deeper drags?


If it is hot out, it could be expanding. I know with my REO, a hot summer day can cause it to autofeed if the bottle is full.

Hmmm...well I *do* live in Florida but it happened outside just last night and it was colder than in my house.

Could keeping it in my pocket, even turned off, be doing it?

Is it possible that inside you are sitting, and tend to keep the unit more horizontal, and outside it tends to be more vertical?

After a tank got reseated a few times I had horrible leaking problems, especially when it was vertical, and gravity took it's toll. Frankly, after a tank fully drained while sitting the cup holder in my car in 20 minutes, I gave up on them. To many other options that don't include absorbing nicotine through my hands.
