I have been experimenting with different setups and have been getting various levels of flooding and leaking depending on what I do. Here are my thoughts on remedies for this issue.
1. I have drilled out my air holes to 1/16". Obviously, bigger hole = more air flow = more potential for leakage. This is a tradeoff. If you like a stiffer draw and less chance for leaks, keep the air hole stock. If you love straight lung hit clouds, drill it out and carry something to wipe with in the event of a leak.
2. Keep your wicks short. It may seem intuitive to allow the tails of your cotton wicks hang off the side of your coil and onto the deck. Don't. All they are going to do is stop the flow of juice back into the hole and bottle. I am pretty sure this is what causes 90% of the leaks that you may get on a Reomizer. Take off the drip tip, get your squonk on, and see if the deck drains. If it isn't draining properly, then your wick is probably the problem.
3. Get your coil situated just above the juice hole. Not touching the ceramic, but with just a small bit of space above the deck with a short wick. Higher coil means you are going to make a wick that's too long and thus run afoul of #2 above. The juice is going to hit the wick, trust me. Look at where the air hole is. That's where it leaks from. If the juice is coming out of there, and it is eventually whether you drill out or not, it is certainly going to hit your wick and coil when you squonk. If you need a stronger throat hit, get some heavier wire and build a lower resistance coil or some higher nic juice. I would much rather be vaping 16mg on a Reo that doesn't leak than 9mg on a Reo with a coil that is all up in the air and burning my throat and leaking everywhere.
4. Higher VG = less leaks. My 2 Reos are set up identically. The one that runs Pluid leaks a lot more than the one that runs Boba's.
Open air hole RBAs are going to eventually leak no matter how careful you are. That's the price we pay for getting epic vapage. I'm not a genius, nor an engineer, but if somebody could create an air hole valve that would allow air to flow in and prevent juice from flowing out, that person would make a buck or two before being knocked off by the cloners. Get on it. I will buy a few myself.
