A rule of thumb that I follow and know to be true is that if a clearomizer has the potential to leak, it will leak. Since I love all of my bottom coils, especially the evod, I know the moment it starts to flood and I simply remove it from my batt and blow from the drip tip while holding the evod upside down into a Kleenex. No more flooding. Second thing I do is I bought some pipe cleaners, 1,000 of them for next to nothing. I may have a lifetime supply. When I start to hear that first gurgle, I hit the tip and center tube with a pipe cleaners.
The reason I can sometimes get serious leaking from the bottom is that I use a lot of heat with my thick cinnamon Danish juice and I burn the coil and wick pretty good. Once the wick is blackened, it does not absorb the juice, so the juice has a chance to run down to my battery. I've rebuilt my coils after only two or three days and see this burning first hand. A quick fix is to put another coil/head in there and clear the flooding, keeping the tank as full as you can. Pressure, burnt coils/wicks, thin juice all contribute to leaking. Don't let anyone tell you differently, all clearos leak, unless the air flow is from the top, so 99% of clearos leak. They are very easy to fix, and fixing them has become so second nature, that I don't give it a moment's thought, and I certainly don't get frustrated anymore. It's the nature of the beast. Like getting upset when the dog barks. Dogs bark....Anyway, watch the videos, learn the fixes, understand the potential user "errors" that contribute to leaking....you'll be fine. For clearomizers, I just don't think you can beat bottom coils, imho, for the flavor and the vapor. It's all subjective, but I'll keep fixin' them and loving them, even when they leak. My two cents. Good luck, Power Up and Vape ON!
