tanks - drip tips and leaks

[MikeK0416]

new to my new "hobby" vaping since the beginning of the year. I bought some mods, Xhaler and have a DC tank with drip tip. My general questions are:
1. do you need the unit always upright when storing so juice does not leak from the drip tip?
2. if you do not need to store them vertical, how does juice not come out of the tip when laying horizontal?
3. does juice leak out of the bottom of the carto when not screwed into the battery?

thank you for any help and education you can give a newbie on the topic.

Cartomizers and cartomizer tanks have a filler material that holds the juice so it doesn't leak out. So far I haven't had any leaking issues with my DC carto tank.

I recommend trying a tank out for yourself. Tanks should not leak ever! The DC tanks are very well made. I have a bunch of them and haven't had a problem with leaking.

I keep all of my condoms and put them back on the carto when it's not in use.

The only time I have ever had a tank leak is when the seals around the carto started to get worn and even then it was just a small amount of juice around the edge not a flood anywhere. Replaced the seals and good to go again

yeah i have not had a carto leak cause i laid it down they have leaked becuase i have over filled them tho

the tank wont leak most of the time, my dct map tank didnt leak in my pocket ever because it simply flows with osmosis from he tank to the carto that way. i honestly want to look into the depth charge tank though. it looks so nice.

1. No. I have 13+ Homeade tanks made from 6Ml dropper bottles all are stored in the box my e-cig came in for the past 3 weeks none of which have leaked.

2. The inside of the cartos uses a wicking system / polyfill .. It wicks what it can use and stops wicking when its full.

3. #1 kinda covered this. If not #2 did
