A little gurgling is fine, means the atty has plenty of juice, to much and it's flooded, just blow it out and start over in that case.

Bridgeless attys won't hold as much juice without gurgling due to the mesh being removed so there's not much in there to hold juice. You might find you have to drip less drops and more often than with a bridged atty.

yea that is kinda what I thought the issue might be..btw what are the advantages to a bridgeless atty

when your atty is on its last legs you can remove the bridge to get a few more days out of it. I wouldn't remove the bridge to start with.

Also atties need some juice soaked into the mesh below the bridge as a resevoir when brand new. With a new atty i drip 4-5 drops and let it soak in for 10 mins, then add 3 drops as needed throughout the day.

it sounds like you didn't drip enough when you started or waited long enough for those to soak in before you started vaping.

I've had zero luck dripping, lots of gurgling but hardly any vapor. Sounds like the problem might be not letting it soak for 10 minutes, been dripping 4 or 5 drops then vaping right away. My atty still has the bridge.

When I get a new atty I check to see if there's primer in there. Most of the ones I get don't but depends on where you get em from. If there is blow that crap outta there. I Get some VG and kinda prime the atty with it. For 306's I put about 5-6 drops/ 510's about 4-5 when I'm priming it. Vape on that for a few pulls then blow out the excess VG and load the atty with my Ejuice. Then 2-3 drops when atty is getting a dry taste.

Taking new atty's (with a wick) and vaping on them right away can almost ruin the atty. Just let it soak in the wick and yu should be good to go

well although i get a little gurgling i get great flavor and great flavor production..but this is all great information as I have never used an atomizer before.

I asked about the bridgeless atomizer because I have seen suppliers sell them. So I still may not completely understand the whole concept of a bridgeless atomizer.
