    JP--you are just hearing the coil and mesh heat interacting with the e-liquid--with some atomizers you hear it and with others you do not-but it is totally normal--Hope that helps--Sun

    is this good?

    probably happens with every puff, I just don't hear it with the cart in. lol

    This is correct...the atomizer is, in effect flash evaporating the liquid...it heats it beyond boiling point very rapidly. You're basically hearing the steam being created.

    You'll get the same effect if you heat up a pan really hot and drip some water in it.

    Default Noise

    The noise from my EVO is the sound of the air being sucked through the tiny holes on the outside of the atomiser as i take a drag.

    My EVO whispers sweet nothings to me as it fills me with it's wonderful nicolove.

    Some atomisers fizz like crazy when new, but calm down a bit when "broken in". A certain amount of fizz is quite normal and nothing to be ashamed of.

    Yep I noticed that sucking sound also on my mini fogger. I can't help but think of the movie Silence of the lambs, when they pull the cocoon out of buffalo Bill's victim's throat, whenever I hear it.
