Looking for eCig that doesn't leak

Not open for further replies.
I've tried several different eCigs that have tanks or empty cartridges for holding the ejuice, and all of them leaked to some degree. Then I found one model from Vapor 4 Life that has a wad of cotton, or some material that looks like cotton, in the cartridge to hold the e juice which prevents leakage. The only problem with this model is that the tiny air vent becomes blocked very quickly and is difficult to clear. Since this air vent is located at the top of the battery itself, you can't just put on a new cartridge to make it work again, which makes the eCig inoperable.
Are there other eCigs that use a wad of cotton or whatever the "cotton-like" material is in the cartridge to hold the juice, and do not leak like the empty tanks do?
thanks in advance for the help.

All you need is a manual (button activated) battery instead of an automatic (airflow activated) one. That way the battery is sealed and can't get clogged up.

The juice device you are describing is called a cartomizer, and yeah they are just shy of leak proof when used properly.

So if you want something cig sized, look for a 510 (this is a thread size) manual battery and 510 blank cartomizers (nothing that says tank cartomizers or cartotank).

If you don't mind something a little bigger, a 510 eGo battery will last much longer and give better performance with the same cartos.

If you really want to get going, get an eGo twist/spinner or some variation and SMOK eGo Mega Dual Coil Cartomizers.
 
The ones that I have from Vapor 4 Life are the manual button type and are their version of the eGo. It has the cotton fiber packed into the cartridge instead of an empty cartridge tank. These do work well except for the air hole getting blocked. Does the eGo twist/spinner have this kind of cartomizer that is filled with cotton-like material, or is there another type of eGO that is made this way?

No - an eGo battery or advanced-eGo battery is just a battery. What you attach to it (cartomizer, clearomiser, tank, rebuildable) is up to you.

You can choose whatever you like.

I'm afraid I don't know the exact nature of 4FL, but with all things e-cigs, if a "brand" does it, another company makes and sells it, often cheaper.
