I've been using a couple Aspire ET-S BDCs for a couple months on my iTaste VV/VW. Since I've had them, I've noticed that once they drop below about 1 mL of juice, they gurgle and leak. I'm in the habit of just refilling them when they get to that point, but anytime I'm finishing the last of a particular juice, I end up just dumping the last bit. Aside from this, they vape GREAT and they are a good size for a 3 mL tank, and they look good. So I don't want to replace them with something else for what's kind of a minor issue, but I'm wondering if anyone else has had similar issues that they've been able to resolve?

I also have a couple Aspire T3 BDCs, which are almost as nice a vape, but they are only 2.4 mL, they are actually larger for some reason, and they don't look as nice. Plus I think they are not glass, but I'm not sure.

Welcome to the forum! I liked the one I have so much, I ordered 3 more. Haven't had the gurgling issue. Something you might want to check out - A PBusardo Video - Let's Talk About Air & The Aspire Some More - YouTube Shead a lot of light on things for me.

Someone mentioned a vacuum inside like using a dropper that keeps the juice from seeping into the coil. I need to watch the video.

I have a bunch of ET-S and vivi nova S. I started having a problem when changing altitude. I drive from 500ft over 3700ft down to 2000ft and then reverse trip. Near the peak they seem to pressurize and push juice out the bottom but won't vape either. They stabilize if I don't try to vape until I crest and start descending.

It's the nature of the coils. Once you get down to the coils, air gets in and you lose the vacuum in the tank. I have the same problem with my Aspires but for some reason I have had zero problems with the Aspire ET-S. I can vape it dry with no gurgling. In fact I love it so much I'm getting another ego battery and ditching everything else. Is it the Aspire with the glass tank and the Ego threading that you're having trouble with?
