popping

[PedroM]

When I vape sometimes i hear a popping sound and at the same time I feel like something tiny hit my tongue. This has happened to me many times.

I know the popping sound is normal, but feeling at the same time something hit my tongue is?

Sure, it is just an air pocket of juice splattering....just like frying bacon.....yummy!....But normal at any rate...you are good to continue!

Thats unvaporized hot juice hitting your tongue....
IMO the popping is not normal...but to troubleshoot more we need to know the setup...ie mod, tank you are using to vape

I guess normal was not the correct word I should have used.....common is more like it.

I'm using a mvp20 with a genitank kanger upgraded coil 1.5

sometimes you suck tiny tiny aliens into the vaporizer and they hit the coil and then jump out the drip tip.

You rebuilding those coils or store bought.....I've noticed my kanger OCC coils pop when i crank up the watts a bit too much for a warmer vape...try lowering the wattage and see if it improves. If you rebuilding i try to make the wick tight in the coil, which in my case takes care of the popping

Try to draw a little longer after you stop pressing the fire button. It may be possible that condensation from the mouth piece is dripping back down onto the coil. Is it only pooping when the atty has been sitting for a couple of minutes...first draw? Then your wick may also be too thick in the coil, causes juice to collect and not evaporate. Normally the latter is the reason for me. If its popping I just use less cotton in the coil.

You could try replacing the coil, but it probably won't fix it completely, just maybe attenuate it a bit. A bit of sputtering is pretty normal. If you were using a rebuildable, I'd tell you you didn't have enough wick in the center of the coil.

I generally find that if it's too little cotton in the coil, then it's normally accompanied by gurgling or even flooding.

Popping only on the first hit, after it's been sitting, is a sign of too much wick. This also may be accompanied by dry hits.

But then again I'm speaking from a rebuild-able perspective.

I'm not using RBA's yet. (This week I'll have a goblin) I'll try what you suggest about drawing a bit after pressing fire button. I have seen e-liquid in the border where the drip tip is. I think you are right about it is dripping back into the coils.

Possible, may be a defective tank. I first began with a Haus tank, that constantly popped, juice constantly in my mouth, no matter what I did. I went out and bought another tank, problem solved.

The popping is a fabulous thing, and really happens most with fresh cotton or fresh coils. Do not let it worry you, it is usually the fresh juice that is popping and you should notice a burst of flavor with the pop. Trust me, I was scared the first time I heard it too.

A little crackling or popping is good, but too much can be unpleasant especially if it's throwing boiling juice into your mouth. I've had builds in my Sub Tank Mini that popped so hard it felt like my teeth were being rattled.
The pops are caused by small amounts of juice being super heated causing little explosions of vapor. Too much heat combined with insufficient wicking, or hot spots on your coil are the usual culprits. Ironing out the hot spots, reducing power, improving wicking with technique or a thinner juice may all help.

Is it only pooping when the atty has been sitting for a couple of minutes...

 

[Matty316]

I recently switched from cotton balls to rayon and have noticed a lot more spitting/popping on my twisted coil builds. I'm guessing because of the better wicking my coils are getting over saturated. I'm yet to find a fix and it's starting to annoy me because every time a take a pull I get unvaporized liquid spitting into my mouth.

I don't want to hijack this thread but would be greatful if anyone can help me out.

Try a little more VG in your mix, flows more slowly therefore less juice getting into your mouth. Try 5% or 10% more...might help. I miss the popping!
