Thanks :)

Honestly, I think it is because of how I Vape. I like a slow ramp up at low wattage and take long slow drags. I don't chain Vape and my mod is always upright so condensation drains back down to the atty chamber.
Sometimes with my GS Air tanks and NET juice, I get a spit back. Im thinking it might be due to some amount of water in the juice, and definitely the fact that i vape high PG/VG ratio (70/30) is a factor. The shorter tanks are more likely to allow juice to reach my mouth. I don't have that happened with my Naughty Mini, it just gurgles like a fool after the second fill. Just got a subtank mini, and liking it so far, and a kayfun lite plus on order. I tootle puff at 8 to 12 W as well.

I see it as a result of a few things:

1) High VG juices have a higher boiling point, which means you will need more power than with a high PG juice.

2) Some tanks will lose internal pressure if not tightened properly. This causes the chamber to flood, which results in more juice hitting the coil than can be vaporized. If you are sucking hard enough (insert joke) then it will pull some of that juice into your mouth (vaping innuendos for days).

3) Subohm tanks require more power. If you're trying to vape them at 10 watts like we used to do with the old clearos, it isn't enough power to keep up with the liquid flow. Also, you need a big enough coil to handle the load (a tiny coil in a tank with big juice channels wont work).

4) If you don't have enough cotton between the coil, you will get the snap, crackle, pop (which sometimes will end up burning your mouth).

The goal should be to have enough liquid entering the chamber, but not so much that it floods or gurgles. If you feel juice entering your mouth (or if the vape feels really "wet"), then you probably have underwicked or need to up the wattage. Likewise, too little juice results in dry hits. There's a balance to be struck, and if you rebuild, it takes a bit of practice.

I've found temp control helps with a lot of these issues.

Myriads of why juice in the mouth, why cannot you figure it out is weird..

Is this the new norm people asking questions that are easily figured on their own?

If the post was, I'm getting juice in my mouth I think its because....... :eek:But you accused atomizers of being the culprit str8 off. Weird...

I get juice condensation in my mouth when I don't towel off my driptip base frequently. I believe in you, you can figure it out
