So once I graduated to a Vamo I bought a few protanks but have been very underwhelmed by the flavor coming out of them because of the airy draw I think.

Because of that I have stuck to Evods mostly but I carry almost everything with me every day my juices are in a huge zip-lock and my Evods are in one too but they leak like CRAZY.. all of them. Every time I go to get a new one I have to wash it down.

Do you think it's possibly the evods that I have? I did get them from the same place (Cuecig.com) or should I just look for something new that doesn't leak? I have some Vivi nova's I got from fasttech but they are trash so I'm sort of at a loss..

Is being in a bag just generally a bad idea? I feel like I have to do it that way just because of the leakage.
I feel like if I asked for something well made with cheap replaceable parts everyone would say Evod.. what else should I look for?

I am in the same boat. My evods were leaking a lot so I kept pestering my local b&m and exchanging them. The last exchange I made I got 4 evods so far none of them have leaked save for one and that was on a 10 hour flight and my fault.

I too am VERY underwhelmed by the protank. I read so many great reviews and bought one last week. My juices taste WAY better in the evods and vapeonly tanks. The protank looks great but the airy draw and almost no flavor thing has really put me off.

I have many evods that never leak. I would assume the many items banging around in a bag would be a cause. I did have to travel with my evods a couple times so I packed them liked the protank comes packed. I bought a large sponge carved out notches the size of my evods and just placed them in there, traveled without issue. Even just a regular sponge could probably accommodate three evods and if you do get any leakage it wouldnt go over everything else.
Im sure if you just look around your house you can find many neat ideas to help you travel in a better way.

Tucson, it's a dry heat
Make sure the heads are screwed on enough (I didn't say tight.) Sometimes we spend a lot of time fussing with the tightness of the base, when its the HEAD that came unscrewed a little, thus leaking. Also - do not overfill it - don't use the window as a fill reference, use the inner tube - do not fill past the tube or juice will overspill through the middle.

On the Protank - switch out the head for the EVOD head instead - it made a big difference for me (and many others.)

I've never had an EVOD leak on me (and I carry mine loosely in my purse.)

STLJohnny - great idea on the sponge thing!
