I think anyone expecting a clearo to perform like a sub ohm rda probably should throw them out. Other than that, try not hoovering the things like you are sucking on a McDonald's milkshake for 20 seconds flat. Until/unless you can figure out why it wasn't working right I'm not about to suggest something else you can complain about. I can make any of them leak - when I'm doing something wrong. Other than that they don't.

If you are looking for tank style i have had awesome luck with the Smok Aro II, its pyrex so no worries about tank cracking juices and they are about 4 bucks a pop, Nautilus is amazing (just watch out as crappy clones are popping up everywhere) or the Kanger Protank 2 with the Aerotank base works great or if you never want to worry about leaks again then go RDA but having to re-drip can be inconvenient.

I have 2 of the smok aroII and the aerotank and I agree, they are both great. the aerotank is actually sitting on my vamo right now 3 inches from my laptop and one of the aroII tanks is right next to it on one of smok's vv ego batteries. these are both great tanks.

Never used tank cracking liquids. Both my EVODs and MT3s leaked like crazy. it would flow onto the battery and then out the air holes... No matter what I did. I tried every fix that I could find and just gave up on them.
over- tightening the coil into the base. there are 2 gaskets there .. pinch one and the top post of the battery goes swimming

I just threw out all of my kanger evods because every single one of them leaked no matter what I did (had 5). Any recommendations on a product that doesn't leak all over the place?

The only time I've had evods leak were because of something I was doing. I like to clean the bottom of my cleros with a q-tip. Surprisingly, that caused leaks. There is a plug at the base of evod heads with a slot that lets you turn the plug with a flat head screwdriver. If you carelessly clean the inner contacts and threads with a rag or a q-tip it can "turn" that plug. What that does is rotate the coil and the wicks. If the wicks get turned sideways juice will flow freely into the head and out the bottom. As long as I'm careful about how I clean that area and I check the orientation of the wick before filling the evod everything is ok.
