How long will a loaded CE3 go unused before a leak?

[redddog]

Just curious if after a certain amount of time, the vacuum gives out and the thing starts to leak. I'd like to load up 5 for the week in one sitting and I'm wondering if they will leak before I get to them.

Thanks all. When these things work, they are AWESOME.

i have had them filled for a month or more and they have not leaked.

if they are not junk to begin with,,,they will not leak.

Awesome. Thanks so much.

One last stoopit question:

Does it matter how they're stored? Coil down, mouthpiece down, on their side?

I wouldn't store mouthpiece down because eventually the whick will dry. I've seen 1 or 2 dropps when stored battery side down after several days on some, but dry on others. I'd store it on it's side.

i store it thread side down when loaded,,,,,,,,,i store upside down when empty.

The CE3 should go for a loooooong time berfore it leaks, if it ever does. There is no vacuum in it. The pressure inside is whatever the ambient air pressure may be on the outside. The liquid stays inside by "surface tension" rather than by vacuum. If there were a vacuum inside, the liquid would stop vaping very quickly.

Clicking the "What he said Button" Not being a fan of the smaller tanks Ce3, Nanos or Cartos, I still have the first two Ce3s I filled over a month ago sitting in a pill bottle and they haven't leaked a drop they are flanked on either side by two Nanos that I filled when they came out, no leaks there either...

I rarely have a leak and when I do, it's from my error or I cracked it. I store them loaded for over a week with no leaks
