Do vapes make noise when they work?
They do make noise when working properly, but the sound is usually described as crackling, and is not unlike the noise made by a few drops of water hitting a hot skillet as it flashes to steam. A bubbling noise usually indicates flooding in the vape chamber.
Why is my vape tank making a bubbling noise?
A bubbling noise usually indicates flooding in the vape chamber. Disassemble your tank wnd check the coil for a missing o-ring and be sure it is properly seated. Hi and welcome to the board.
Why does my vape smell bad when I vape?
It is caused by your vape coil. Remember you are dealing with an electrical device that is doing several things at once as you vape. As you draw on your e-cig, e-liquid is pulled into your atomizer head. The atomizer head has a coil inside it that heats up as you press your button.
Is your vape device popping and cracking?
Don’t worry, it’s not defective. A vape popping sound is normal for any device. Here are some quick, simple fixes. Some crackling and popping is normal every time you vape. Have you noticed the way heated water bubbles and pops? The action of heating liquid and turning it into vapor can cause the same reaction in your vape device.
Why does my vape make a weird noise when I inhale?
When inhaling on your device, vape juice is drawn into the coil. It is then the coils job to heat up the e-liquid and turn it into vapour. Like with most liquid when it is heated rapidly it will make a crackling noise as it turns into vapour.
Why does my vape sizzle when I hit?
This is normal because the increase in volume of nicotine creates a higher vapor content and the crackle sound is more pronounced. A properly working device is going to produce a light crackling pop sound, but you need to know when the sounds become a problem.
Is my vape going to explode?
Any brand or type of vape pen with a lithium-ion battery could theoretically explode in use. If there is a defect with the battery or if the device is used incorrectly, such as using the wrong charger or getting the battery wet, it could lead to a fire and explosion.
How do I fix my gurgling vape?
The best way to do that is by rolling up a paper towel and pushing it through your tank's mouthpiece. Run the paper towel all the way down the tank's chimney until it touches the top of the atomizer coil. The paper towel will soak up the pooled e-liquid, eliminating the gurgling temporarily.
Fixing Too Noisy Popping & Crackling Sounds
During longer inhales your device will be pulling more vape juice than it can normally handle and during that time it will gurgle like crazy. Instead of getting more vapor, you will receive a mouthful of your juice (untreated) straight from the tank.
Spitback & Bad Flavor Are the Important Yardsticks
Sounds may be annoying, but mean little in the grand scheme of things. Only when the sound is accompanied by burnt flavor or spitback [hot e-juice shooting onto your lips] should you get really concerned.
Why does my vape make a noise?
More e-liquid will condensate and less turn to vapor, thus an excess of liquid makes the noise. E-liquid can’t be vaporized effectively when your vape wattage is too low. You need to increase it for normal heating or try to make longer draws. Otherwise, you may flood your atomizer and e-juice will spit into your mouth.
Why does my vape keep popping?
We are talking about occasional popping because of twisted coil build, and you can hardly prevent it. Be sure that your coil twists and braids are very tight in your device. You can also hear a vape popping when your device has a narrow drip tip or chimney.
Why does my vape spit?
Vapes spit because juice collects on the coil and does not vaporize. This problem is caused by coils getting flooded with too much liquid, low wattage settings, and airflow that is too open, and a variety of other reasons.
Why does my RDA tank spit?
Overpriming. A common cause of a tank or RDA spitting is overpriming. Priming coils is essential, but some people overdo it and put too much liquid onto the coil and wicking. Instead, use a moderate amount to prime the coil.
Why do coils pop?
A Coil Design. Twisted and braided coils have more surface area, which helps to produce more vapor and may cause extra popping sounds . Such types of coils have more crannies and nooks, that’s why more e-liquid pops. We are talking about occasional popping because of twisted coil build, and you can hardly prevent it.
Why does my atomizer pop?
A thinner e-liquid might cause coil flooding and atomizer’s popping and spitting. You may use thicker vegetable glycerin instead of thinner propylene glycol liquid. Sugar is very much like wood when it is burned. Both contain cellulose which breaks down when burnt. Then the gases vaporize and make a popping sound.
Why do coils get flooded?
Deep drags are another reason why coils get flooded. Luckily, this problem is easy to solve. Just take slower and shallower drags. The airflow can be tightened, but the drags still need to be shallower because deep drags will flood the coil regardless of the airflow setting.

I'm a little unclear of when the buzzing occurs. Does it only happen when the USB cable is connected? Does it only happen while actively charging your battery device?

After thinking about it, I now recall that a few years ago there were some cheap Chinese regulated mods which had a "rattlesnake" sound. If I recall correctly, the sound came from the regulator or circuit board and occured while the fire button was pressed, but didn't happen if the fire button was not pressed.

How loud is it? If it's very quiet that you only hear with your head in your hands with your mod near your ear while vooping, it's probably normal electronic stuff doing electronic stuff. It's louder near the port because that's an opening.

I hear about this from time to time. I did a quick search for "buzzing noise" from the main page and found a bunch of results.
Why does my vape make a gurgling noise?
If you notice a gurgling or spitting noise, it might mean that your power is too low. If you have an adjustable power vape and the wattage is too low , excess fluid can gather in your atomizer head. It isn’t being vaporised quickly enough and will flood your coil, causing a gurgling noise or spitting.
Why is my atomizer louder?
Your atomizer head can have different styles of coil inside. If the coil is mesh or has multiple coils, then there is more surface area to vapourise e-liquid. This means that you get more flavour and vapour from your vape juice. But it will also sound louder as you are vaping.
How does an e-cigarette work?
As you draw on your e-cig, e-liquid is pulled into your atomizer head. The atomizer head has a coil inside it that heats up as you press your button. This coil then vaporises your e-liquid into a vapour that you can inhale. As the e-liquid is vaporised it makes a slight popping or crackling sound.
What is the difference between a high and ultra vape tank?
So a vape tank from the high or ultra category, will have adjustable airflow that opens much wider, than a tank in the regular category. With all tanks, the airflow can be closed right down, but a tank in the regular category will have a much more restricted airflow, therefore less of a ‘whoosh’ sound.
What does it mean when you draw on an e-cigarette?
As you draw on your e-cig, you are pulling air into it. This air runs across the coil to move the vapour from your vape tank, to you. This is when you might hear a light ‘whoosh’. With most standard e-cigs, you won’t hear much of anything. But if you have a sub-ohm kit, with wide open airflow then it might be noticeable.
What does it mean when your atomizer is thinner?
A thinner e-liquid means the noise from your atomizer head might be slightly more noticeable as there isn’t the thickness there to dampen the sound. Even with a thicker e-liquid your atomizer head is doing the same job and making the same sounds, it is just buffered from your e-liquid.
What is the ratio of diluents in e-liquid?
The ratio of the diluents in your e-liquid determines how thick or thin your e-liquid is. If you have more of the diluent Propylene Glycol (PG), it is a thinner consistency so your e-liquid will be thinner. A higher concentration of Vegetable Glycerine (VG) in your e-liquid and it will be thicker.

The weird bubbling sound (gurgle) most often associated with Subtanks is from a flooded coil. Most often you can turn up the power a few watts and it will vaporize the juice. (I didn't listen to the clips). What power setting are you using?
JDC1958 Senior Member ECF Veteran
And how does this happen? The guy in the store set it up for me, put about 2 drops in the 2 holes on the sides, and 2 drops in the top. Then filled the tank and put coil in.

I bought a KANGERTECH SUBOX NANO black friday. Please know this is my first time EVER having an e-cig so I know nothing about them.
wheelie Ultra Member Verified Member ECF Veteran
I listened to clips and it sounds normal to me. If flooded you can feel the juice bubbling in it. Sounds like that is not happening. They all make noise. If vaping smooth and you are getting a consistent hit it is right. Ear plugs will stop the crackling noise e-cigs produce. j/k CHEERS!

I would recommend going back to the shop for a 1-1 tutorial on how to use it again.

gurgling can be cause by sucking too hard on the atomizer and or having the airflow closed down and sucking too hard for the airflow.

Disclaimer: I do not have that tank, and am not familiar with it. But it does appear that there's not much liquid in it. In my tanks, I find they misbehave when the level gets too low. Unless there's more liquid that's not visible from the angle in your video, try filling it up again.
Why does my vape gurgle?
Puffing too firmly disrupts your device’s normal airflow and forces extra e-liquid into the pod’s atomizer coil assembly. The e-liquid then begins to seep out of the pod’s air intake vents, or it travels up through the pod’s chimney and into your mouth. Either way, your pod system will gurgle when you vape.
What is the worst vape juice?
With almost any modern vaping device, the worst thing that you can do is use an all-PG vape juice. Propylene glycol and vegetable glycerin are the two base liquids used to create vape juice. PG is much thinner than VG. It also produces smaller vapor clouds and has a thin, wispy mouth feel. Most people who vape like the larger vapor clouds and fuller mouth feel that VG provides, so most e-liquids contain at least 50 percent VG.
Why do vapers take so long?
This is commonly due to the way in which the individual user to take drags from a cigarette, which tends to be rather vigorous.
Why does my power supply gurgle?
That is, the lower the resistance, the higher the wattage should be, and vice versa. Each resistance tank will have a range that is considered the “sweet spot.” If your power output is set too low to properly heat the coil , it will result in flooding and gurgling. Try increasing your wattage/voltage to a level that is within the recommended range—this may resolve the flooding and gurgling you are experiencing.
What happens if you prime a coil?
A properly primed coil will result in a much richer and tastier flavour, thicker vapour clouds, and a longer-lasting head. Taking the necessary steps to prime a new coil will also help you avoid dry or burnt hits. However, if too much e-liquid is added to a new coil, this can result in flooding and gurgling. The amount of e-liquid necessary ...
How does a vacuum tank work?
In order for the vacuum effect to function appropriately, the tank needs to be well-sealed and air-tight. Check the assembly of the tank’s various components to ensure that everything is connected properly and securely. In addition, inspect the various parts for cracks or gaps that could potentially allow excess air to enter the tank. This can also contribute to flooding and gurgling.
Can a new coil be a dud?
Likewise, sometimes a brand new coil can be a dud that lasts a fraction of the time you expect it to or can be faulty right from the start. Try replacing the coil to see if it helps eliminate the problem.
Why does my vape make a popping sound?
A light popping sound is a usual and predictable process in vaping. It is because the vape coil heats the juice, and it is vaporizing ; this is a pretty great sign that your vape works as it should. When you smoke, the liquid touches the hot coil, and it turns into vapor thus making the crackling noise. How loud the sound is will depend on ...
Why does my vape keep popping?
The three factors above affect the vape crackling, spitting, and popping. It is related to the connection of the liquid and the coil wire.
What is the sound of a sub ohm vape?
When you are vaping with a sub-ohm setup, the first sound that you will hear is a crackle. A vape with an open chimney forces air inside, and it increases the overall effectiveness of the device. More liquid will condense, and less turns into vapor, so the excess liquid is behind the noise.
What to use instead of propylene glycol in vape?
A thin juice might cause flooding in the coil and the atomizer spitting and popping. You can use vegetable glycerin with a thicker texture instead of the usual propylene glycol ingredient. Like wood, sugar breaks down when it burns because it also has cellulose. When the gas is vaporized, it can make a crackling sound. Naturally, the juice makes the sound as it gets burned by the device’s coil.
Is it normal for a vape to crackle?
If you are a beginner, the crackling sounds that your vape makes may seem annoying or strange for you. But you do not have to worry about it because vape crackling or popping is normal. However, even those who have vaped for a long time should still mind the changes in the sounds that their vape makes as it could be a cause of some problems.
Can you still use a vape with a popping sound?
You can still enjoy your vape with the slight popping sound, much like a fireplace. If you feel like it is bothering you, you can check your mod and have it fixed. It is important to be aware of the changes in your mod or pen, so you will know if there are any signs of problems. Even though it is rare, instances of exploding mods ...
