Flooding problems Nautilus and Aerotank

[R7rok]

Hi guys hoping you guys may be able to help, I am at my absolutely at my wits end with the two tanks I have and consistent problems I have with them gurgling.

I bought a nautilus and absolutely love it when it's going, but that only seems to be half of the tank then I run Into problems, Liquid always seems to build up underneath the coil and I need to clean and wash the bottom hardware and refit, I am using BVC coils.

After getting fed up with this I went for an aerotank as opposed to a new nautilus, again having the same issues as with the nautilus, I think it might be a problem with the tanks not being air tight but I am making sure to make things as snug as possible but still it always seems to happen.

Can anyone please help as the tanks are great but can't get them to work as required.

PS I notice I have a lot of problems if the tank is with me when I'm the car.

Any help is very much appreciated

If you are leaving the tanks in the car during the day where the temps in the car can get extremely hot, then the liquid thins out and can end up flooding the coils. At least that's what I've found with the AeroTank. However to me the Nautilus tank hasn't been as susceptable to the heat as my AeroTank is. I'm guessing something to do with the size of the holes in the coil heads, and or difference of vacuum pressure etc. I don't generally have any issues of flooding with the Aerotank if I use it at home where the temperatures are more controlled. The Nautilus doesn't usually flood unless I try to prime it too hard when replacing coils.

It really doesn't take long in a hot car for my AeroTank to become flooded. Sometimes in only the time it takes to put $10 worth of fuel is enough time to flood it from heat in the car.

I'd have to guess maybe this is the issue you are having or it could be many other things, the way that you vape, or pulling on it when you're not pressing the power button etc. So many possibilities.

To fix a flooded atomizer take your tank off the battery and blow through the mouthpiece (with a paper towel under it). This will drain the extra eliquid.

When you inhale, take a long smooth draw vs a short sharp draw. This will prevent extra eliquid from being pulled into your coils and flooding it. Inhalation technique with an e-cigarette

Whenever you first sense that your atomizer is beginning to flood try this:
1. Open up the airflow so when you take a hit you are not pulling in as much juice into your coils.
2. Raise your voltage or wattage if your battery allows you to do this. This will vaporize more eliquid.
3. Tip your battery up (and take a few hits). By tipping it up you will prevent more eliquid from being fed into the coils.

Give one or all of these a try.
