Indeed. Although one pod of mine leaks from one of the contact pins. Or it could be from the shell of the pod to the base. As it gets wet between the two. If I don't vape, absolutely nothing leaks. Just when using it.

In Daniel's video about the Smok Novo, he compares it to the Vladdin and shows some leaking from the contact pins on the Vladdin. Not much though.

He also says the Infinix is his favorite pod mod. Preferences vary though. If I didn't already have the Infinix, I'd probably buy the Vladdin instead... mostly because of the cover over the air intake and removable (washable) drip tip. Not sure about the leaking though. It's not a big enough upgrade for me to buy one just to see if I like it more or less... at least until I run out of pods.

I dunno drysprocket, most pods just get hotter and drier if you even start to chain vape them. The Vladdin's vape is very consistent, even while chaining. Very impressive for a non-TC pod. Nor have I noticed any spitback/flooding/juice in your mouth either. Have you heard otherwise?

Thanks, I haven't heard anything about flooding but it tends to happen with ones with a tighter draw. But good to hear. I may give this a shot.

I've had no issues with flooding. Just a tiny bit of juice in my mouth once or twice, which I can't tie to anything in particular since it's only happened a couple of times.

I had one pod which leaked vigorously (I think from the tiny silicone membrane between the two battery connections) immediately after its first fill and before I ever got to mount it on the battery tube. It was clearly a dud, as the other two I've tried have been flawless. And as @BillW50 has mentioned, a very consistent vape.
Overall, I'm very pleased.

I'm still enjoying the Vladdin. I like the ergonomics and like the vapor production, flavor, draw and vapor density.
Except I've had two different pods leaking from the bottom, and looks like from the membrane hole.
Interestingly, it only happens after filling.
I placed the pod sitting on a paper towel after I filled it, found wetness beneath it, and wiped it off then let it sit, same thing, then wiped it off. After a short while the leaking stopped.
I'm wondering if I'm overfilling, if there's a level above which it isn't happy?
How full are you all going on the pods?

Looking at the instructions, it says "to minimize leakage...open and close the silicon seal on side after another."
Maybe this means to let it sit a bit then plug in one side then the other or close it then remove the silicon topper and then reinsert it. I don't know.

Since I'm liking this device and since it's only happening after refilling, I'll keep doing the paper towel thing.

Any thoughts or similar experiences?

Man this kind of sounds a lot like the pod mod I would want, if I wanted one. I think there are some pods that just can't be beat for flavor. My kid had an updated Sourin Drop, he ran into issues with the clogging thing and just hated it. I guess it's nice that it's metal, but meh.

I don't want to get locked into the flavor of pod mods if they're better. LOL there are several areas I just refuse to expand into at the moment i.e. squonking, because I'm scared I'll like it Better than the jillion things I already own.

Some time. LOL.

I've bought a Vladdin an recieved it today. It vapes good and I don't have any spitback or other problems, but I don't get much flavour. It's very muted. Are Ceramic coils not suitable for NET-Liquids?
I'm using 50 PG 40 Vg 10 distilled water and NET Aroma from La Tabaccheria.
Or will it take some time, for the flavour to become better?
