The good thing about your Riva battery is you can do so much with it. If you don't like the tank or cone (I never use them myself), you can switch it out for something else.
If it leaks, try cartomizers or clearomizers, or dual coil cartomizers. You have to spend a bit at first, but once you find what works for you, you're good. There's not going to be any perfect pv out there. Just one that suits most of your needs the best way possible.
For me, and this is only me- I didn't like fooling around with filling cartos, and I'm not overly fond of clearo's or tank mods. They're OK, just not for me. It's more of an aesthetic thing than the way they perform. I haven't tried a ton of different pv's but I really love my Reo mini and my 5v box mod. The reo for when I want something small and I don't have to keep refilling. The box mod when I want a little oomph. If I'm walking the dog, I like my 510 mini. If I'm out in the yard all day I like the boge rev because it holds a ton of juice and I don't care if it gets banged around. I only vape a couple different e-liquids and know how I like them and at how many volts.
If you vape a lot of different e-liquids, and you need a battery to last you all day or hate to refill, you may like some kind of vv tube mod and tank. Money's a factor as well.
The leaking, I don't have an answer to. I had an ego-T tank/atty and didn't have great success. Other's do. If you like the idea of seeing how much juice you have, you might like the clearomizers. They're easy to fill. I didn't have leaking at all. I liked cartos better, but the clearos work well.

My favorite mod is still my Silver Bullet, I want a Helix but they're always sold out...and I build my own wood box helix that I enjoy lol. Problem wise, I don't have problems with them, but I also know what cartos I like, attys, tanks, I make my own juice...very little trouble.
What problems are you having?

For regulated 3.7V it''s hard to beat the E-Power 14650. Look at what you get...
-Regulated 3.7V means a consistent vaping experience for nearly 24 hrs. for the a serious smoker.
-If it's 510, you can pretty much slap it on.
-The protected Li-ion 14650 batteries cost you from less than $4 apiece to $7 apiece depending on where you buy them. Compare that to the cost of battery units that include a plastic or metal shell, the switch and electronics.
-The three parts for a E-Power 14650 cost much less than $10 apiece.
-With the cost of batteries, you can afford a week's worth of protected 14650 batteries and a 6-cell multi-battery charger for less than the cost of three day's worth of 1000-1100mAh proprietary battery-shell-switch units. With the E-Power 14650, you can afford to charge up a week's worth of batteries on the weekend instead of charging batteries every single frigg'n day.
Any doubts?

Baby Bullet for a fixed voltage. the BB is built just like its big brother, the Silver Bullet. It takes a 14500 battery, the same size as an AA. It's small enough to conceal in your palm and easily fits in any pocket. It's practically indestructible. You can stack 2 3V CR2s in it for 6 volts. The batteries are cheap enough to get a handful of them for non-stop vaping without recharging. Did I mention it's indestructible?
Holy crap that's tough. Like many guys I like variety, and I always carry two mods with two flavors minimum. My only issues are juice leaking into a switch, which I clean up with an alcohol soak, and center pins getting pushed down, which I lift back up.
I love my Silver Bullet because it's stripped and has a satin finish so it has a great feel, and of course is bulletproof.
I love my Midi Vapestack because it's a tiny 18350 that disappears in my hand and the milling in the middle makes it so easy to hold.
I love my Roughstacks and Maxi Roughstack because they are small and light for their 18350 and 18650 batteries and I can fix them easily.
I love my Copperwood because it looks so cool and sticks to your hand without any effort.
I love my Omega because I can just squeeze and vape, and I can tear it down and maintain it easily.
I love my beater dual 18650 plastic box for it's long life and if it breaks it only cost $15 so no worries.
I'm a loyal husband, but just a dog when it comes to my vapes. My favorite is the one I'm holding at that moment.

Show me a hyperlink to buy this thing. I can't find it. If it isn't regulated voltage, forget it.
It isn't regulated. It wouldn't be indestructible if it was. I use it with the 5V passthrough option a lot. Too bad it's been discontinued. It was the whole bottom section, detachable with a USB/DC adapter and a cable better than the one on my Sennheisers. They just have the cable part for sale now. It's only like $5, and I'd buy one for a spare except I can't imagine it would ever break.
Here it is anyway. Regulation?.... I don't need no steenkin' regulation.

lolz, it took me a second to figure out what I was looking at there. Nice rickroll.
Unregulated voltage...
11:00 p.m. on Saturday evening. She looks like Megan Fox
3:00 a.m. on Sunday morning. She looks like Scarlett Johansson
10:00 a.m. on Sunday morning: She looks like Lindsay Lohan
10:00 p.m. on Sunday evening: She looks like Kim Kardashian
11:00 p.m. on Sunday evening. She looks like Ellen DeGeneres

I've used Sennheiser headphones professionally for over 35 years, beginning with 414. I love the sound, but the cables and strain relief are the pits. They just don't hold up well under heavy use. I use HD 280 Pros at home.
I've watched the Treasure of the Sierra Madre a few times. If Dobbs, Howard, Curtin and Cody didn't have regulated loads in their cartridges none would have gotten out alive.

I absolutely respect that. Don't agree, but quite completely understand.
Back in the day when photographs were objects of actual physical mass (AKA, film), I owned a series of very high quality but very basic (i.e., manual) cameras: Nikon F, F2, F3, Pentax 67, Mamiya RZ67. None had auto anything, be it exposure, focus or otherwise.
They had it where it counted: all were very well built; all had excellent optics. I understood luminance, diffraction, depth of field. I didn't need no stinkin' autoanything.
The parallel breaks down with PVs, though: My Nikons—although they'd absorb punishment and continue to function even if the batteries ran dry—were adjustable.
Although the SBs and P18s of the vaping world could be compared to the Mercedes and BMWs of the battery-holder-with-switch vaping world—I leave it to you to decide which is which—there's something to be said for variable, regulated voltage and multiple layers of battery-failure protection.
Nonsense. I vape for almost 4 hours before it even drains to 3.7V. The first 3-4 hours, I'm vaping at 4.2-3.8V. By the time the time it starts looking like Scarlett Johansson, I'll swap it out for Megan Fox again. I only vape Scarlett or Nicole on those occasions I have to.
Regulation give you constant mediocrity. Unregulated gives you higher voltage for a good amount of time before it settles into the mediocrity that regulated starts and finishes at.

Small battery, my favorite is the ego twist.
Big battery, my favorite is the new styled e-power 18650. Shiny chrome finish, feather light button. Inexpensive, and easy to replace.

There's something to be said for variable regulated voltage. There's even something to be said for boosted regulated voltage. Depends on how long you want to go between charges. That's what I don't understand about regulated eGos. Why would you trade low voltage for longer vape time when the cost is having to use lower resistances that drain the battery faster anyway? I don't notice any serious degradation in the vapor as my voltage declines from 4.2 to 3.7. I usually swap batteries before it hits 3.7V anyway. These batteries are so small that I'm not concerned with longevity that much anyway. I'll trade more frequent swaps for higher voltage. Unregulated gives me that option if I want it.
Hmmm....errrr....ppffftttt...I don't have a favorite mod! Back to the drawing board......or should I say shopping AGAIN!
