My eGo one mega is leaking
1st time was after about a week vaping a ti coil. Though it was age. Replaced it and was fine for a day. Took everything apart again. Put together and seems fine
Vaped all day. Left it up right on table for about 3 hours this afternoon. Tried now. And leaking again. Bleh
What tank can I get that does not leak and thats easy to fill

What mod are you using ?
Is it leakinf from the airflow ?
Check to see if the coil is tight into the Base.
Does it gurgle?
And you get spit back also? If yes then it's a common problem with this tank. On mine it used to do the same thing. All this is due to the wick getting over saturated over a period of time. The way to solve this issue is to take off the tank, flick the coil so that the excess juice will come out and the screw on the tank. Alternatively you can hold down the fire button and let the coil burn the excess juice (only fire for short periods of time otherwise the coil will burn)
The best way to not have this problem at all is to build coils on the CLR head. The reason is because the stock coils have very small wicking holes compared to the CLR. There's videos on YouTube thay show how to build on the CLR. It's a much better option and much more cost effective.
you can also fire and blow into the drip tip and force any excess juice out of the airholes. this should work on all tanks that are gurgling
This made mine leak even more. Cannot recall if I fired whilst blowing though. But in the end, CLR fixed my leaking issues completely. The first stock coil that shipped with it was fine. All replacements thereafter were a mess until I bought CLR. Haven't tried recoiling yet, but rewicking is really easy. Got it right first time (unlike subtank mini)

Blowing into it makes the juice that is going to leak out on the future come out (removes the excess juice)
True, but in my case, I was just pumping the tank empty through airflow holes. Got really messy.

how much were you blowing through ? was it like a full lung emptying hit ? normally you just blow a tiny bit (like 2-3 seconds)
Maybe I shouldn't answer that. Was blowing hard enough to start a bushfire

hahaha
For gurgling, the method below is easy enough and prevents the possibility of blowing juice out the air holes or base of the coil. If you blow, air and condensed moisture is going to follow the path of least resistance, which in most cases is the base of the tank, which is exactly where you don't want it to end up.
I have recoiled the CLR with success, comparatively easy. Contact coils.
Thanks a lot for all the input
Gotta say, blowing also made mine worse. So much wasted juice
So it seems CLR is the way to go, a quick Google explained to me that this is their rebuild-able/reusable coil.
Seems like I will get into this quicker then I initially thought. I see you get them in 0.5 and 1 ohm. What else will I need?

I got some from eciggies and vapour mountain. You will need wire eventually, 28 g Kanthal works well for me. Cotton to wick it with - using such a small piece you might as well get the best - Cotton Bacon V2. A 2.5 mm mandrel to wrap the coil on. And a flame (little blow torch or gas stove or lighter) to torch the wire/coil with. I do contact coils.
Yes
Yes, excellent batteries, the Smurfs.
