Is there any RDA that can hold more than 10 drops without leaking?

Trident. High air holes. Dry, I can get 20 drops in it with no leaking. Low on juice but not too dry I drip 10 - 15 depending on how dry it is.

I'm going to have to build my Vision Eternity sometime soon and see how that goes. I've had it for a while but I've not had thin wire until now. I actually think it holds more than 20 drops in RDA mode, but certainly not sure about that.
My RDA is actually Trident V1, can't drip more than 4-5 without getting leaks from the air holes.
Are you using Trident V2 by any chance?
Judging by photos it looks like a baby RDA, looks very small, is it comfortable as the Trident to work with? can I easily build 5-6 loops coil (not micro coil) in it?
I get 15-20 drops into my IGO-W if I'm careful not to tip towards the holes. I have the air holes bored to 2mm diameter with the deck cup lip just visible inside the bottom of the holes (bore is centered from the original air holes). However when walking around, it's more convenient to add 10-15 drops so as not to have a drippy mess.
Check this out, it's a tank Dripper called 3d RDA

also the Origen by Norbert from Hungary has a resovoir. But if you have to have a Dripper and a Tank, look for Bottom Feeders like the Rio or the Vmod.

I have an Origen dripper that I use at home sometimes. It's like having two tiny cups of juice under your wicks, and vapes amazing.
But I still end up using it by dripping right on the coils most the time because; The caveat of an RDA is that if you are stuffing enough wick in the chamber and dripping enough e-liquid in there to last for a minute before having to drip again; it's going to leak out the side air hole if it's not upright. Period. Some give you more leeway than others, but there you have it; unless your willing to drip a lesser amount of juice, more often, it's gonna leak when tilted.
If you really want an RDA that never leaks and has 6ml on on-demand juice look into the Reo. A Reo is having an RDA without having to drip or over-saturate the inside of the chamber with puddles of leaking juice. Never leaks a peep. You squeeze the inside bottle, juice travels up to the deck and saturates the coil, then get's sucked back down. Everything else is left nice and dry and clean, except your coil and the tiny amount of wick tails you need inside the coil to hold the juice for a few hits.
Otherwise, your going to have to look into a RBA tank like the Kayfun. But they just don't deliver the goods and versatility that an RDA can, and your at the mercy of a wonky wicking/vacuum tank system that'll still on occasion give you grief like leaking, gurgling, or dry hits.

8 to 12 drops, depends on bottle, in the Igo-L. Much more than that wouldn't seem like "dripping" (-;
Prometey or Achilles by Titanium Mods from the Ukraine, or the 3D Dripper by Atmomixani. You can get 1 to 2 + mls of liquid in any of these three. However only the 3D allows for true sub-ohming, if that is something you are interested in. Your other option is a Reo or bottom feeding mod.
I think most here are missing the other factor when it comes to holding juice in an RDA... your wick. The height of the air holes and the depth of the juice well are factors but many people seem to ALWAYS forget about how they wick their setup.
you can set up an RSST with a larger than normal wad of cotton and it works like a dripper....
This is true, but using a ton of wick/cotton to hold juice messes with the taste and airflow big time IMO.
I've always found that using as little wick as possible, frees the coil and chamber up for clean airflow and vaporization, giving consistent and flavorful performance. That's what an RDA is all about IMO.
Also, when the juice is stored/soaked up in wick and heat drawn to the coil, it tastes muted, tampered with and "cooked" to me.
IMO an RDA truly shines and performs best with fresh juice right on the coil. It's a tough pill to swallow, but really outside of a bottom feeder, there's no solid solution for lazy drippers who don't want to drip so often.
I agree 100%. I always have the wick only come out one side of the coil (positioning my coils at a 45 degree angle) right into the drip cup and that's usually it. Never have quite understood why someone would want to hold juice in a device designed for dripping... I have other stuff for that like genesis-style attys.
I use the genny to hold a big amount of flavor I really like and want to vape 3ml of it.
On the RDA I don't expect or want to use more than few drops, but I rather drip ~15 at a time and enjoy for a while than have to drip 3-~5 every time.

Yes it is the V2.
It is quite small. Will fit nicely on a eGo battery. It's completely different than any other RDAs I've ever seen. Google how to set it up and you'll see. Because of the way it is designed you can't use thick wire in it. But it may not need thick wire and it may have great flavor because of the small air chamber. You can drip into it or you can put a 1 ml tank on it. Either way I believe it will not leak, but as I said I have not tried it yet so I have no actual experience with it.
Give this suggestion some thought VapinSweetZ. Bottom feeders are a very good vape system.
Thanks but as I said before:
So bottom feeders are not really relevant for what I'm looking for right now.
For big amount of liquid I'm very happy with genesis, I just like the idea of having a dripping attomizer that I don't need to drip every second but every minute
I think around 15 drops is kinda the max I'm aiming for, don't need more than that for sure.
