Kanger T3 Gargling problem

[KStorm87]

Hello all, I'm still fairly new to the E-cigarette forum and I'm fairly new to vaping. I've been having problems with my clearomizer gargling and leaking. I recently replaced the atomizer, because the last one died out on me. I looked up the problem online and did what I was supposed to do to fix it and I keep having the same problem. It will work fine for the first couple of puffs and then it starts to gargle, leak and spit up liquid in my mouth. I'm guessing I'm doing something wrong I just can't seem to figure out what it is. Am I overfilling it? (I didn't think I was, I've always filled it the same amount on my last atomizer with no problem) Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

To fix a flooded atomizer take your tank off the battery and blow through the mouthpiece (with a paper towel under it or cover the airflow hole). 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 (if your tank has airflow control) .
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.

I appreciate the help, it's been driving me crazy, I'll try the way you said and hopefully I can avoid this problem in the future. I'm thinking about switching to a different brand that may have less of these problems.

Does the T3 have removable/replaceable coils? You could just have a bum coil (it's been known to happen). Does the same thing happen across the board with all the coils for this tank?

I used T3 for about 2-3 months.

100% leak rate. It was never fixed.

You will not fix the T3. You might be able to fix the T3S or possibly the MT3, but not the T3.

I fixed the T3S with homemade coils and cotton wool.

Sorry to break the bad news. You can try, but buying anything more to do with them is a waste of money. I had 3 tanks, 6 bases and bought 25 coils. I gave the entire collection away.
