Hello and welcome Nikki1993

 

[Nikki1993]

I do have one question! Yesterday when I was using it, it was totally silent, and about half way through today it starting making a crackling sound when I inhale. Is this normal? I didn't do anything to it.

 

[MythDrago]

what set up do you have

 

[Nikki1993]

It's a Vision Spinner, not sure what kind that is...I got a starter kit. Sorry lol I'm really new at this. Switched from cigarettes

 

[MythDrago]

the vison spinner batteries are actualy a decent start looks like a ce5 clearo on there. as for the crackling sound did you mabe turn the voltage up on the battery. try turning the voltage down some and see if it goes away

Hello and welcome to the forum Nikki. Glad to have you here!

+1 on the Vision Spinner. If your tank is plastic just be aware that there are some flavors that can (over time) crack or etch the plastic.

Here is a great resource regarding "tank cracking" eliquid by ECF member Baditude: Something Safe for Cinnamon and Citrus Flavors

the crackling is pretty par for the course with e cigs, the more power the more it crackles. It could also be because you hadn't broken in your tank yet. i really recommend investing in a protank from kanger or a Nautalis from aspire it will really make your vaping experience better

Greetings Nikki and Welcome to the ECF..................Enjoy.......................

Crackling is normal just the liquid being vaporised.

I have a spinner I use from time to time decent start up batt but I would grab a better carto like posted earlier. You can get a kanger pro tank 3 for 15$ Or aspire makes some nice cartos too. Welcome to ecf and vape on!

Welcome Nikki! That Vision Spinner is a great little starter device. As others have recommended, you might want to pick up a better tank since the CE4s cannot be reused once they are dead and they are a pain to clean (and cleaning them appears to reduce the lifespan of the coil from my experience). A great starter tank for that Vision Spinner would be an Aspire K1, Kanger Genitank Mini or a Kanger Aerotank Mini. Pick up one of them and some replacement coils and you will be much happier in the long run. They would fit nicely with that battery and offer you the ability to swap coils and more easily clean the tank for reuse with different juices.

 

[Nikki1993]

I turned the voltage down and the crackling stopped, haha! Thank you! What do the differences in voltages effect? What does it do exactly?

 

[Nikki1993]

Anyone know how to change the wick in my ce5 clearo? And how often it should be changed?

Does the base twist off on that clearo so you can change the coil? They length of time it will last and how often you need to change it will depend on a variety of factors including the type of juice (thick, dark and sweet will lower the usable lifespan) and voltage you vape at. Here is a good write up that I found about changing CE5 coils: Changing The CE5 Coil - Exhale User Manual - 1

I will tell you right now that it is the only thing that helped me kick a 40 some year habit. I think vaping is awesome and really think I am more addicted to it than I ever was smoking. Go figure. There is so much information here, so if you have any questions, don't hesitate asking because there are always some pretty fantastic people here that want to help you any way they can. Good luck to you and I look forward to reading about your vaping success. Have fun.

Also wanted to add that here is a thread that you can find some really good deals. Didn't know if you already knew about it but thought I would add it in case someone else reads this. That is why ecf is so special. Learning and helping is what it is all about.

Welcome to ECF and congrats on making the switch! The voltage settings allow you to dial in your vape to what suits you, your juice, and your clearo the best. In general higher voltage means more heat, vapor and flavor, but you'll want to be careful not to go too high or you'll start burning your wicks/juice. It's best to start at low voltage and then slowly go up until you get the vape you want. The crackling sound is just the juice vaporizing, nothing to worry about there.
