Another reason your vape pen might be louder than others is due to the ratio of Propylene Glycol [PG] and vegetable glycerin [VG] in your e-juice. If you have a higher percentage of PG your vape liquid will be thinner resulting in far louder crackling sounds than with the high VG percentage.
Why is my vape 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.
Why is my vape atomizer gurgling?
Add too much e-liquid, though, and the atomizer will make a gurgling noise. When this happens, there’s little that you can do except continue vaping through it or give your e-cigarette a quick cleaning. I’ll also discuss what to do if you have a gurgling e-cigarette cartomizer or clearomizer.
Why does my vape coil Crackle and pop?
The crackling and popping you hear from your e-cig is completely normal. 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.
Why is my vape pen leaking juice?
That’s because the cartridge seals expand and creating a passage for vape juice to leak out. Drawing too frequently on your vape pen, known as chain vaping, can also weaken the cartridge seals, causing vape juice to leak out.
How do I stop my vape from gurgling?
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.
Why does my vape make a crackling noise?
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.
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.
Should my vape be crackling?
New machines will have a more pronounced crackle, but it will quickly level out to normal. Crackling, hissing and hissing sounds are normal. However, there can be problems when the sounds stop or you start to hear a loud popping noise every time you inhale. The crackle and pop effect are again normal.

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.

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).

Sounds like liquid dripped down to the battery area where the cart screws in. Try cleaning?
XfooYen Vaping Master Verified Member ECF Veteran
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.

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.

Take Short Inhales. Taking a log, deep inhale can force e-liquid into the chamber and into your mouth. If you repeatedly have this problem, you’re probably pulling too hard.

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.

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.
Why does my vape pen taste burnt?
