Good advice.
The Kanger pro also uses the new design for the base where the coil / wick assembly screws out like on the EVOD.
I'm lovin the EVOD so I have high hopes for the Kanger Pro when it's released.
To be clear, I only felt the hot splattering little dropplets when I vaped WITHOUT the mouthpiece. With the mouthpiece on I was getting juice from the accumulation of juice in the gap under the mouthpiece. I was sucking it in.
I am currently vaping at 4.5 v and after a bit of initial gurgling it is now vaping real good again. I've checked the drip tip well a couple of times and have found absolutely no juice there even though the inside of the Phoenix rubber tip is wet with juice. And I'm getting no juice in my mouth either, except for the occasional taste of a tiny bit of juice, which is normal. The original drip tip of this unit seems to be the problem. It really needs the Phoenix Reborn rubber tip, which I find hilarious in a twisted sort of way, haha!!

It was gurgling on a fully charge Spinner and SLB PT. The problem is the open space under the bottom of the drip tip. It seems like it is. May be too early to tell yet.
Okay, looked up the kanger pro, yes it looks beautiful and yes I want one. Sounds like they are not available yet tho, so I will be on the look out. Any clue if/when gotvapes may be getting them? Or will you have to get them right from kanger? Also, the plastic isn't my beef with all these tank systems.. It's just the inconsistency and fiddling required with burnt taste/wicking, gurgling, leaking, etc.. All these annoying performance issues that we are all too familiar with. Don't wanna sound like a perfectionist or ..... about what some consider minor issues, but I've just been hoping for a tank that works consistently without these issues. Maybe the kanger pro will be my answer..
It's not written in stone, but don't think anybody will have these until after the chinese holiday is over........
Bad said these will come after the chinese holiday, so plan on a few weeks before thy're here.
So far with my EVOD, there hasn't been any gurgling so hopefully since they are using a similar base structure on the Pro it will not have that problem.
You've gotten some tips (no pun) that have helped you. I'll throw in some more...
The sizzling droplets: You mentioned you use 100% VG. High VG juices are most often cut with distilled water to thin them out. The water has a tendency to sizzle. Try putting a drop of water onto a hot griddle.
The 'juice' below the mouthpiece: Condensation. Always happens. If your mouthpiece fits all the way down the condensation runs back down the vapor tube. If it doesn't, and there is a ridge or space where the condensate can accumulate, it will accumulate. Liquids work that way.

Yup, yup! I get tons of condensation in the upper well on my Splitfires too. That just means they are working GREAT!
I have a question... I have been using the Phoenix & reborn since they came out (and nothing else until 3 days ago when I got a cheap atty, Since you are always selling out I needed something else). I like them because they have no poly fill and nothing to interfere with the flavor and no allergic reaction. I am not one to try every new thing that comes along, but I might like these, I did like a tank that I got with my eGo a year ago. It was an eGo-w kit. Anyway since then I have found what I like, the Phoenix, but you are always sold out. So do these have any poly fill in the middle?
I have been using mine for about a week now and I am in love!!!
The only little problem I had was in my previous posts about the burnt hits...but hey I am a chain vaper
Follow the extra wick removal tips mentioned in this thread and it vapes like a champ!!!!
I have had a little gurgling here and there but only when I vape too hard for too long. Just give it a little blow thru your DT and it clears it right up
Very little condensation, nothing a qtip wont fix once or so a day
I am retiring my Vivis. I never realized how much they muted flavors until now

Nope...........go back and look at the pictures in the OP. This is a bottom coil, like in the phoenix, with just a short wick like they have.
I too am a big fan of the Phoenix XL.
You also may want to consider an EVOD if you find this too big. The EVOD also is a bottom coil that has no polly-fill.
I let the Vapeonly sit for a few hours and when I went back to it it was gurgling like mad and I was drinking juice again. My assessment was wrong. The problem has nothing to do with the drip tip well. When I take off the Phoenix tip there is no juice there at all. The juice there was simply being sucked up the vent tube plus the little that fizzles up there. The problem is simply the same problem the T3 has but much worse. The T3 doesn't make me drink juice, this does. BTW, I have tried blowing it out and this will only fix it for a few pulls and the gurgling resumes.
Will try a different head/coil as maybe this one is defective somehow, and also look at this coil and see if I can add some wicking or fix it somehow, try another coil, etc. I also found a YouTube video complaining about the seal and the condensation issue. I think he is wrong about the condensation as mine gurgles with very little juice, if any, in the drip tip well. At least I found the Phoenix Reborn rubber drip tip fits perfectly on the Vapeonly. EDIT: Just wanted to say I believe my problem must be unique to this unit as you all would have reported this problem if you had it too. It is major gurgling, not just a little.
BTW, I wouldn't call the juice found in the drip tip well condensation. If vapor is basically steam how can it "condense" into fully constituted juice? I think juice gets up there via the tiny sizzling droplets and sucking it up the vent tube.
There may be problems with the bottom seal in the long run. Here's the video:

I was aware of that but that addresses dry hits. I'm getting flooding/over wicking. I think, lol!
Any vapor that condenses out as it cools slightly... will be the same as the original liquid minus what may have filtered out in a wick or caramelized onto the coil.
That's correct. It would not be fully constituted juice. But maybe it is just close enough to look like it is. I'll run a little experiment sometime. Right now my hands are full and my mouth is full of ejuice. hehe.
