I've been a smoker most of my life and decided to try vaping although I was skeptical that anything would end my love/hate relationship with cigs. I ordered an egot/evod kit and was blown away by the results. vaping only with a comparable pg eliquid for my brand for an entire month! That was monumental for me! Then I got really frustrated when one of my batteries fell apart and with the continual flooding/gurgling/leaking/liquid in my mouth issues!
I wanted to find something better because I wanted to continue vaping rather than go back to the dreaded weeds, so I looked at tons of info, even though I didn't understand a lot of the techy stuff, read lots of reviews and decided to give the Aspire Nautilus a try, along with the eVic battery. Both are huge, but I liked the idea of not having to change liquids and batteries so much.
Long story short, the Nautilus has flooded/gurgled/leaked through the air holes and shot liquid in my mouth from the start!!! I've taken it apart several times, blown through it, changed the head to the extra one supplied, tightened everything, opened up the holes, ramped up the watts, and still the same problems! Is it the PG liquid I'm still using? What am i doing wrong??? Is it really that hard to vape efficiently???
I read a post on the forum from Jazzman that suggested this: "Proper way: Hold the device level with the ground... straight out. And put the air flow hole facing directly down and blow through the drip tip; gently, hard however you want directly into a paper towel. Cleared in 2 seconds. Total non-event. The idea is to let the juice settle to the bottom of the air channel so it can blow out. Sounds obvious now, but I totally missed it somehow."
Blowing through the DRIP TIP has totally cleared up my problem for now and I am grateful for the advice but I still want to know why the thing is flooding in the first place! Any input would be greatly appreciated and please explain in newbie terms. I'm still learning.
Thanks!
