Thanks Alex. I'm trying really hard to love my Crius despite the leaks and dry hits. Going to give the verticals a go tonight (possibly titanium because I have an overflow of this wire).

Mine leaks from the join just above the airflow, I just put a vape band there and now she behaves, maybe she just needs a collar?
I also have dual 26g Claptons in mine and no dry hits at all. Could be a wicking thing, I use cotton bacon.

Definitely a wicking issue. I think I got it sorted now by uses very little wick and fluffing the ends before gently putting a few strands in those holes, but still, if I chain vape (after 7 to 8 pulls) i get dry hits and need to let it stand for a good few seconds before vaping again.

But, soon as I get home and supper is sorted, going to try these vertical builds

Without a doubt, I've discovered that the pancake wicking is the only way, well for me and now I see you do it too. I then tuck in from the bottom of wick and when it feels snug, I cut the too off the leftovers. There is where I put my vape ring band.

Nice... I need to get one of those. Will pick one up at VapeShop the weekend. Thanks for the tip dude.

Thanks @shaun patrick for the vape band tip. Juice leak is now out of sight, out of mind.
Huge Thanks to @wiesbang for helping me out with a band.

Actually looking really good:
