I've been watching reviews of the Zeus from Geekvape and am really intrigued by it's top airflow and the fact that it is less prone to leaking. I got my ... kicked repeatedly by a Griffin 25+ and swore I'd never touch another rta but after seeing the Zeus I'm rethinking that. I really like the Zeus but I'd prefer to wait until other folks on ECF share their thoughts about it. Besides the OBS Engine what are some other top airflow RTAs that are somewhat leak resistant?

A properly designed top air tank should never leak unless you make it happen with some torture testing. Really, it is that leak resistant (well, my Engines, can't 100% vouch for the Zeus). IIRC, the only other top air RTA I can think of is the Troll. Nice tank but only holds about 2 ml. Maybe someone will be along with some other tanks that I am unaware of or forgot about.

Thank you. I had forgotten about the Troll and I shouldn't have because I have a coworker who has one and he was always blowing me s**t about my never ending battle with my Griffin.

I don't even know why I'm interested in RTAs again. I really love my squonk mods but then again there are times that I want to use my Drag without having to hassle with dripping and I just know that a blue Zeus would look soooo very good on top of my Drag

I use to really like my RTAs and still do to a point. If I us e a tank, depending on the situation, I'll grab my Engine or my Crius Plus w/quad coil deck. I started squonking and that got me more into RDAs. Now my squonk mods are dead so I've gone on to RDTAs. That's my preference now. Same as a dripper with the convenience of a tank. No leaking either.

I have the geekvape eagle with top airflow. has the bottom flow as well. the coils when purchased have nice builds but the wicking is terrible soi rewick them all before using. can also put in your owwn coils a few times as well before they need to be tossed. Many people have complained about leaking although as long as I have rewicked and have juice flow closed i experience zero leaking issues.

The Wotofo Sapor (The Joyetech Cubis and Cubis pro had RBA heads, but they had serious problems with spit back). Top airflow RTAs are more pretty much leak proof, not only less prone to leaking.

I'm pretty sure that if there's a way to make it leak I would find it.

As long as it performs better than my Dripbox 160
The battery door latch broke on my dripbox. Other than that it worked ok in wattage mode. TC mode was worthless. My Drone died but I was in love with it until it divorced me. Musta worked the ole girl too hard.

From what I've read I must be one of the lucky ones when it comes to the battery door. It's currently being loaned out and I haven't really missed it since I got my Pulse. I love the small size and the overall performance it gives.
