I currently have a vape mod that doesnt last all day and a vape tank that leaks and occasionally opens in my pocket. Im looking for advice on a high capacity tank that doesnt leak or open on my pocket. Also, a mod that will last all day. I generally vape with very low wattage (20w). I understand theres not a lot of low wattage stuff out there these days so I guess Im willing to increase the wattage. Im mostly looking for something I can keep in my pocket without having to worry about a big spill.

Thanks in advance for the advice! Ive been vaping for years but still dont know much.

Please give us more info: what are you using now, what do you consider "high capacity" (how many ml of juice)?
There are many devices that will last all day at 20 watts... that's not a problem. Leaking... yes, I get very frustrated with any "carry around" device that leaks. How strong of nicotine is the juice you use... how many ml of juice do you vape a day? The more info you can give us, the more we can suggest solutions. What is your budget (I'm very low budget myself so don't be afraid to say if that's your situation) We can help. There are some very good "pod" devices you might like and they a good way to get started (also what is called an AIO... all in one device) Then there is full blown "mods" (battery/controller) and "atomizer" (tanks) Some mods have a built-in battery (good for newbies) others requires external batteries and then you also need an external battery charger. Don't mean to throw all it out at once... that's why you need to tell us more or people (well meaning) will tell you to get all kinds of stuff... maybe more than you are ready for)

Voopoo drag? Which one? They have the drag 2 and a couple pods, drag s and drag x. If you have a smok tank on it I'm assuming it's either the original drag or the drag 2. Nothing wrong with either of these, excellent mods. I certainly love mine. Smok tanks are so so, as long as you install the coil properly to prevent leaking. It will come open in your pocket though. That's why I never carry a mod in my pocket. And in in event of a serious battery malfunction, I'd rather not have that possibility going on in my pocket anyway. I will slip it in my back pocket momentarily if I need my hands free for something but I never carry a mod in a front pocket ever. If your mod doesn't last all day, that's your batteries, probably. How old are they? New batteries might be the fix for that. A good mesh coil like a fireluke, or a falcon, or even the vaporesso NRG are all good choices if you do DL. You did say you vape lower wattage though. The tanks I mentioned work best around 50 to 60 watts. But I will say again, a mod in your pocket is an accident waiting to happen, be it a juice leak or battery explosion.

14 nic juice. Indiana. Not sure exactly what my rig now is called. The mod says voopoo drag on it and the tank says smok

My budget is prob around 150$. I go through a 120ml bottle in like a month and a half or so.

Your best bet for pocket carry really is a pod mod. It may not have quite the airflow you'd like, but they are more pocket-friendly than full size mods.

I'd ask around for an airy pod mod if I was you. For real. Just buy two to be certain to last the day. Look into the Vinci Air, that's a good one.

But was just searching for Jackaroo prices and availability and wow, they have gone up in price.

Pretty much everything has. I bought 2 Jackaroos at an eightvape special sale months back, and got them for 17 each... no sales like that these days, on any mod...

Battery explosions are still a thing? I thought that vapes were as safe as laptops?

Heat is never good for batteries, and the problem with in-mod charging is that they are in a closed compartment and thus, heating up while charging (the charger produces heat when charging).

On a rare occasion your not likely to run into problems, but to do it daily is to invite problems... the least of which being a greatly reduced life of your battery.

And yes, any battery can explode when exposed to a lot of heat, even your laptop battery. External charging allows the heat to escape resulting in a cooler charging process; increasing the life of your battery and greatly reducing the chances of your battery exploding.

    them for 17 each...
    Wow. $17, for a regulated mod no less. I paid around $17 (either 16 and some change or 17 and some change) for an eGo and CE4 starter kit, 6 years ago..
