Why is my vape making a bubbling noise?
Oct 28, 2012 · Ego tanks are notoriously dodgy. That doesn't mean there's anything wrong with your setup. If you draw too fast, it will pull liquid too rapidly into the atty and begin to flood it. Usually that's the gurgling you will hear. Hit slow and steady and the excess should vape off. If you're getting leaking around the base, that is another issue.
Why does my vape only give me weak hits?
May 04, 2020 · It happens because e-liquid is caught somewhere in the tank’s air path – either in the intake vents or, more commonly, in the chimney leading out of the tank. The e-liquid blocks airflow, causing the tank to bubble when you vape. If you can figure out what’s causing the e-liquid to pool, you’ll fix the gurgling.
Why does my vape Wick keep burning up?
Vape Pen cartridge air bubble fix. A few people have had an issue with the pre-filled clear co2 cartridges where a small air bubble develops around the wick at the base of the cartridge.

Hey all I'm still pretty new to this - I'm happy wit my ego t except often when I inhale there is this annoying bubbling sound, I've dismantled it and there's no leaks, tried blowing thru the airhole - to no avail. It happened on my first cartomiser/clearomizer (not sure what it is its see thru with 2 wicks if that's relevant).

Yeah sounds like you're filling your cart too much. Dab it on a paper towel and look through the hole before you screw in. If you can see through, you're good to go. If you can't, dab it until the excess liquid comes out the bottom of the cart, look through the hole, and if it's all clear, you're good to go.

Why does my vape tank gurgle?
A gurgling vape tank is one of the most annoying problems that you can deal with as a vaper. It’s not so much that the noise itself is bothersome; the problem is really what the gurgling noise means. It means that there’s excess e-liquidcaught somewhere in your vaping device, whether it’s in your tank’s air chimney or in the coil assembly. The e-liquid blocks airflow, hampering your device’s vapor production. Gurgling is also usually the first sign that your tank’s atomizer coilis flooded and that the tank is about to leak. If you don’t correct the small annoyance, then, it can quickly turn into a lot of lost e-liquid.
How to stop a gurgling atomizer?
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.
How to clean a vape pod?
When it’s time to refill your pod, remove it from the device. Hold a paper towel over the bottom of the pod and blow hard through the pod’s mouthpiece. Blowing through the mouthpiece forces the excess e-liquid out of the pod’s intake vents and into the paper towel. If you do that each time you refill your pod, you’ll rarely experience gurgling when you vape.
How does a sub ohm tank work?
A modern sub-ohm tank has a wide chimney to facilitate smooth airflow and encourage the production of large vapor clouds. If your tank produces vapor with a large droplet size – we’ll discuss that in greater detail shortly – some of the vapor may condense while it’s still in the chimney, forming drops that drip back down to the atomizer coil. The drops pool on top of the coil, causing gurgling and popping when you vape. The easiest way to prevent this from happening is to get a new tank, which we’ll discuss shortly.
How to stop a gurgling e-liquid tank?
After rinsing your tank, dry it thoroughly with a paper towel. Install and prime a new coil, and then piece the tank back together carefully, making sure that you don't cross the threads. Rinsing the tank removes excess e-liquid that might be stuck in the tank’s chimney and air vents. If you also follow all of the other advice in this article, keeping your tank clean will further help to minimize gurgling.

Why does my vape tank leak?

Try to keep your vape positioned vertically if you’re not using it for extended periods of time. Don’t get into the habit of laying your device down all the time, or you will have to deal with inevitable leakage.
How to stop vaping from flooding?
Reduce your airflow – Inhaling too forcefully when you vape encourages flooding by literally pulling more e-juice into the chamber. This is easy to solve: inhale more softly, letting the coil and wicking do the work for you. If you’re still having issues, try reducing your airflow setting. However, if you reduce the airflow, be careful not to inhale too strongly to compensate—this could just make the issue worse.
Why do multistrand coils pop?
Avoid exotic coils – This applies mainly to rebuildables. Multi-strand coils often pop and spit due to their design. Twisted coils in particular have a bad reputation for this, but Clapton coils may have the same issue. Their design makes it easier for e-liquid to pool on the coil, and so sometimes it’s hard to entirely avoid popping on these coil types. The easiest advice if you absolutely want to avoid spitback is using simple round wire instead.
What happens if you inhale too much liquid?
If you inhale too forcefully, you risk bringing too much e-liquid into the coil, which may lead to leakage. Watch out when filling – Never overfill your tank. Always leave a small air pocket at the top when filling. This empty space will help prevent any liquid from leaking out.
How to remove e juice from a tank?
First make sure the threads are in sync and closed tightly, but not too tight. Find that sweet spot. If the threads are crossed, screw it back together carefully. Remove e-juice from chimney – All tanks have a central airflow tube that runs from the body of the tank up to the drip tip, known as the chimney.
Why does my e-liquid spit?
Spitback has a simple cause: e-liquid gets pooled up on the coil itself and gets “cooked” instead of being vaporized. It spits similar to the way boiling water does, and with you inhaling from the tip, you can easily catch a droplet or two. The problem is closely linked to flooded coils, but, in some cases, it can happen even without flooding. Here are some ways to prevent spitting and popping from occurring.
Why does my vape stop hitting?

Can you refill a vape?

Why does vaping cause my throat to burn?
There are a few reasons why you might have the throat on fire feeling after taking a drag. These include:
Open your airflow
Air flow helps you to enhance and adjust the flavour of your e-juice. However, if the draw is too tight or in fact closed completely you will get a burn sensation in your throat from vaping. In this video review of the X30 Rover, Matt demonstrates exactly what that is like (skip ahead to 5 minutes 32 seconds).
Prime your coil
When you install a new coil you must make sure that the cotton is fully saturated before you take a puff. I know you want to get vaping right away but take a dry hit and 1, it will taste gross and 2, it will burn out your coil before you’ve even used it. Once you have installed the coil, top the tank up with juice and leave it to sit for a while.
Check your e-liquid
If you use a basic device then chances are it is recommended that you use a higher PG liquid. PG is harsher on the throat. If you really find that the vape burns your throat with a PG liquid then try a higher VG juice. We have a great range of high VG liquids that we deliver the very same day.
Reduce your nicotine level
Nicotine can feel a little scratchy on the throat. If it is causing too much discomfort then why not try reducing your nicotine level.
Allergies
If none of the above seems to give you any relief and still leave your throat burning then it might be down to an allergy. Stop vaping until you get to the bottom of the issue.
