Is there such a thing as a leak-proof squonk system?

[Fiatrix]

I'm very interested in the idea of a squonker. However, I have found that anything I can't toss in my purse (i.e. lay on its side) without leak issues doesn't really work for my lifestyle. I have basically accepted that squonking is something I can't get into until I'm in a different living situation (I travel quite a bit and basically live out of a backpack), but I'm curious to know if something has come out that I am unaware of.

So, I'm asking the intelligent and more-vape-educated masses of vapedom: Is there a squonker system that doesn't leak when it's on its side?

None of my squonk mods will leak when they are on their sides.
All of my bottom feed attys will leak from the air holes.

Why do you think a squonker would leak? None of mine do in any position unless they're over-squonked.

Well, I am generally under the impression that just about all RDAs leak through their air holes when on their side, and I am also under the impression that squonk systems use RDAs. I would be thrilled to be incorrect and pointed in the direction of what might suit my interests!

My Reo never leaks. If you want to make sure it doesn't leak out of the air holes just don't squonk before putting in pocket or laying down!

I've been using feeders for years and none of them leak. They can if you over squonk and flood them or squonk before laying them down but as long as you vape the excess out before laying it down you'll be fine.

Same goes for dripping but squonking is much more convenient.

Sure they leak, if there is too much liquid in the atty so that it doesn't get absorbed into filler.
As others have said just vape it dry, tc-coils help here if you're new with rda's and can't quite figure out from the vape when your atty is dry.

Never had a mod leak squonk or not... only ever had an atty leak when dirty or I wicked it wrong or over dripped or squonked.

For me all leak were me caused.. the vape gear had nothing to do with it.

You are incorrect my friend, with this caveat, well made BF mods & RDAs do not leak, even of you turn them upside down,

When a well made, well built BF RDA is squonked, the liquid enters the chamber, wets the wick & coil, and the excess is sucked back into the squonk bottle

Top airflow RDAs is what I use. They are mostly leak proof. The typical side airflow dripper will leak with a few exceptions like the NarDA which can be called leak resistant.
