Why is my vape tank gurgling?
A pod vaping device, or pod begins gurgling because excess e-liquid is caught inside the pod’s atomizer coil assembly. There’s more e-liquid than the wick can hold, so you begin to hear a bubbling or gurgling sound when you inhale.
How do you fix a 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.
Why is my disposable vape gurgling?
Gurgling, Leaking or Spitting A disposable vape has a narrow air channel that leads from the atomizer coil to the mouthpiece, and the reason why you might notice a gurgling sound when vaping is because e-liquid is stuck in the air channel.
Why is my vape flooding?
Flooding happens when too much e-liquid makes its way into the atomizer head. The examples so far have involved either the wick not soaking up liquid properly or juice directly making its way to the atomizer head, but it can also happen if you don’t puff in the right way.
Why does my vape make a crackling noise?
It’s the same with your vape juice. As it heats up going through the vape coil — especially while the atomizer is not yet scorching hot — bubbles are created that collapse on themselves. They make a crackling noise. Sometimes, a bubble of e-liquid gets big enough to burst violently — that’s when you hear a loud pop.
Why is my vape making a crackling noise?
Why do new coils crackle?
About 90% of the time the reason your vape is spitting or crackling is because the interior of the coil has become flooded with vape juice.
What does a bad vape coil sound like?
‘Bad’ Sounds Noises get louder in this case because vapourised particles build up over time and these cause a popping sound when the heat increases. If you notice a louder pop or crackle that is accompanied by an unpleasant and prolonged spitting sound then your device may be getting flooded with vape juice.
Why is my RTA gurgling?
If you’re using a rebuildable tank atomizer (RTA), then persistent problems with flooding could suggest a problem with your wick setup. If there isn’t enough wick in your coils, too much juice can get into the chamber and cause leaking, gurgling and spitting when you try to vape.
Why is my coil spitting?
Sometimes referred to as spitback, this can happen when there’s too much e liquid in the centre of your coil. This can’t be vaporised properly and it bubbles or pops like water being brought to the boil. As you inhale, some of these ‘pops’ may shoot up the centre post of your tank.
Why is my vape making weird noises?
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 vape crackling?
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 is my atomizer tank gurgling and popping?
Condensation leads to e-liquid pooling on your atomizer coil, and that’s what causes gurgling, popping and spitting. You can get the same cloud production without any of the associated problems if you use a tank with a mesh coil instead. Some of the most popular mesh coil tanks at the time of writing are:
What does it mean when your vape tank gurgles?
Gurgling is also usually the first sign that your tank’s atomizer coil is flooded and that the tank is about to leak.

What Causes a Vape Tank to Gurgle?
Why does my sub-ohm tank have a wide chimney?
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.
